# Results and resume

## Results

Results are saved to `./results/<tool>/<target>/` using the filename pattern `<YYYYmmdd-HHMMSS>_<tool>_<target>_<runid>.<ext>` plus a `.meta.json` sidecar. Results go to `./results/` in the folder where the command is run, so run it from the same folder each time, or set `OTINSTALLER_RESULTS_DIR` to a fixed path.

```
results/sherlock/testuser/20260929-123456_sherlock_testuser_abc123.txt
results/sherlock/testuser/20260929-123456_sherlock_testuser_abc123.meta.json
```

Results can contain personal data. Store and share them accordingly.

## Resume

If a run or install is cut off by a crash, a kill or a power loss, otinstaller leaves a job marker in `~/.otinstaller/jobs/`. Run `otinstaller resume` to handle it:

* For installs: cleans up partial state and retries the install.
* For runs: reports the interrupted run and prints the command to rerun.

Pressing Ctrl+C stops cleanly and removes the marker, so there is nothing to resume. Use `otinstaller resume --dry-run` to preview, and `--json` for machine-readable output. Partial output from interrupted runs is always kept.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://osintverse.gitbook.io/otinstaller/guides/results.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
