GH Evidence Kit

Purpose: Create, store, and verify forensic evidence from GitHub-related public sources and local git repositories.

When to Use This Skill

• Creating verifiable evidence objects from GitHub activity
• Local git forensics - analyzing cloned repositories, dangling commits, reflog
• Exporting evidence collections to JSON for sharing/archival
• Loading and re-verifying previously collected evidence
• Recovering deleted GitHub content (issues, PRs, commits) from GH Archive
• Tracking IOCs (Indicators of Compromise) with source verification

Quick Start

from src.collectors import GitHubAPICollector, LocalGitCollector, GHArchiveCollector
from src import EvidenceStore

# Create collectors for different sources
github = GitHubAPICollector()
local = LocalGitCollector("/path/to/repo")
archive = GHArchiveCollector()

# Collect evidence from GitHub API
commit = github.collect_commit("aws", "aws-toolkit-vscode", "678851b...")
pr = github.collect_pull_request("aws", "aws-toolkit-vscode", 7710)

# Collect evidence from local git (first-class forensic source)
local_commit = local.collect_commit("HEAD")
dangling = local.collect_dangling_commits()  # Forensic gold!

# Store and export
store = EvidenceStore()
store.add(commit)
store.add(pr)
store.add(local_commit)
store.add_all(dangling)
store.save("evidence.json")

# Verify all evidence against original sources
is_valid, errors = store.verify_all()

Collectors

GitHubAPICollector

Collects evidence from the live GitHub API.

from src.collectors import GitHubAPICollector

collector = GitHubAPICollector()

LocalGitCollector (First-Class Forensics)

Collects evidence from local git repositories. Essential for forensic analysis of cloned repos.

from src.collectors import LocalGitCollector

collector = LocalGitCollector("/path/to/cloned/repo")

# Collect a specific commit
commit = collector.collect_commit("HEAD")
commit = collector.collect_commit("abc123")

# Find dangling commits (not reachable from any ref)
# This is forensic gold - reveals force-pushed or deleted commits!
dangling = collector.collect_dangling_commits()
for commit in dangling:
    print(f"Found dangling: {commit.sha[:8]} - {commit.message}")

GHArchiveCollector

Collects and recovers evidence from GH Archive (BigQuery). Requires credentials.

from src.collectors import GHArchiveCollector

collector = GHArchiveCollector()

# Query events by timestamp (YYYYMMDDHHMM format)
events = collector.collect_events(
    timestamp="202507132037",
    repo="aws/aws-toolkit-vscode"
)

# Recover deleted content
deleted_issue = collector.recover_issue("aws/aws-toolkit-vscode", 123, "2025-07-13T20:30:24Z")
deleted_pr = collector.recover_pr("aws/aws-toolkit-vscode", 7710, "2025-07-13T20:30:24Z")
deleted_commit = collector.recover_commit("aws/aws-toolkit-vscode", "678851b", "2025-07-13T20:30:24Z")
force_pushed = collector.recover_force_push("aws/aws-toolkit-vscode", "2025-07-13T20:30:24Z")

WaybackCollector

Collects archived snapshots from the Wayback Machine.

from src.collectors import WaybackCollector

collector = WaybackCollector()

# Get all snapshots for a URL
snapshots = collector.collect_snapshots("https://github.com/owner/repo")

# With date filtering
snapshots = collector.collect_snapshots(
    "https://github.com/owner/repo",
    from_date="20250101",
    to_date="20250731"
)

# Fetch actual content of a snapshot
content = collector.collect_snapshot_content(
    "https://github.com/owner/repo",
    "20250713203024"  # YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format
)

Verification

Verification is separated from data collection. Use ConsistencyVerifier to validate evidence against original sources.

from src.verifiers import ConsistencyVerifier

verifier = ConsistencyVerifier()

# Verify single evidence
result = verifier.verify(commit)
if not result.is_valid:
    print(f"Errors: {result.errors}")

# Verify multiple
result = verifier.verify_all([commit, pr, issue])

Or use the convenience method on EvidenceStore:

store = EvidenceStore()
store.add_all([commit, pr, issue])
is_valid, errors = store.verify_all()

EvidenceStore

Store, query, and export evidence collections.

from src import EvidenceStore
from datetime import datetime

store = EvidenceStore()

# Add evidence
store.add(commit)
store.add_all([pr, issue, ioc])

# Query
commits = store.filter(observation_type="commit")
recent = store.filter(after=datetime(2025, 7, 1))
from_github = store.filter(source="github")
from_git = store.filter(source="git")
repo_events = store.filter(repo="aws/aws-toolkit-vscode")

# Export/Import
store.save("evidence.json")
store = EvidenceStore.load("evidence.json")

# Summary
print(store.summary())
# {'total': 5, 'events': {...}, 'observations': {...}, 'by_source': {...}}

# Verify all against sources
is_valid, errors = store.verify_all()

Loading Evidence from JSON

from src import load_evidence_from_json
import json

with open("evidence.json") as f:
    data = json.load(f)

for item in data:
    evidence = load_evidence_from_json(item)
    # Evidence is now a typed Pydantic model

Evidence Types

Events (from GH Archive)

All 12 GitHub event types are supported:

Observations (from GitHub API, Local Git, Wayback, Vendors)

IOC Types

from src import EvidenceSource, IOCType
from src.schema import IOC, VerificationInfo
from pydantic import HttpUrl
from datetime import datetime, timezone

# IOCs are created directly as schema objects
ioc = IOC(
    evidence_id="ioc-commit-sha-abc123",
    observed_when=datetime.now(timezone.utc),
    observed_by=EvidenceSource.SECURITY_VENDOR,
    observed_what="Malicious commit SHA found in vendor report",
    verification=VerificationInfo(
        source=EvidenceSource.SECURITY_VENDOR,
        url=HttpUrl("https://vendor.com/report")
    ),
    ioc_type=IOCType.COMMIT_SHA,
    value="678851bbe9776228f55e0460e66a6167ac2a1685",
)

Available IOC types: COMMIT_SHA, FILE_PATH, FILE_HASH, CODE_SNIPPET, EMAIL, USERNAME, REPOSITORY, TAG_NAME, BRANCH_NAME, WORKFLOW_NAME, IP_ADDRESS, DOMAIN, URL, API_KEY, SECRET

Testing

Run Unit Tests

cd .claude/skills/github-forensics/github-evidence-kit
pip install -r requirements.txt
pytest tests/ -v --ignore=tests/test_integration.py

Run Integration Tests (Optional)

Integration tests hit real external services (GitHub API, BigQuery, vendor URLs):

# All integration tests
pytest tests/test_integration.py -v -m integration

# Skip integration tests in CI
pytest tests/ -v -m "not integration"

Note: GitHub API integration tests use 60 req/hr unauthenticated rate limit. BigQuery tests require credentials (see below).

GCP BigQuery Credentials (for GH Archive)

GH Archive queries require Google Cloud BigQuery credentials. Two options:

Option 1: JSON File Path

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/credentials.json

Option 2: JSON Content in Environment Variable

Useful for .env files or CI secrets:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS='{"type":"service_account","project_id":"...","private_key":"..."}'

The client auto-detects JSON content vs file path.

Setup Steps

1. Create a Google Cloud Project
2. Enable BigQuery API
3. Create a Service Account with BigQuery User role
4. Download JSON credentials
5. Set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS env var

Free Tier: 1 TB/month of BigQuery queries included.

Requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

• pydantic - Schema validation
• requests - HTTP client
• google-cloud-bigquery - GH Archive queries (optional)
• google-auth - GCP authentication (optional)
