# Dossier Collect Recursive parallel investigation that builds a graph-structured dossier on a seed entity. ## When to use You have a seed (a username, file, symbol, ADR-id, URL, or concept) and want to **expand outward** discovering every connected entity, with provenance per claim — rather than answering a specific question. For specific questions use `deep-research`. For multi-step plans use `goal-plan`. ## Steps 1. **Detect seed type** — classify as one of: `username` (handle), `file` (path), `symbol` (code identifier), `adr` (ADR-NNN), `url`, or `concept` (free text). 2. **Pick sources** — match the source matrix to the seed type. Default: all applicable. 3. **Start trajectory** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__hooks_intelligence_trajectory-start` with task `dossier:<slug>`. 4. **Round 0 fan-out** — issue ALL source queries in ONE message. Examples: - For `username`: `WebSearch`, `WebFetch` on github.com/<user>, `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search_unified` - For `adr`: `Read` ADR file, `Grep` references, `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search` namespace `adr` - For `symbol`: `Grep`, `Glob`, `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__embeddings_search` 5. **Extract enti

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill dossier-collect --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From ruvnet/ruflo, a repository with 67,015 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
