External Research Resources
The investigative team often supplements the forensic ledger review with
open-source intelligence tools. This catalog records every off-repository
workspace that contains notes, drafts, or AI-generated material tied to
the escrow diversion matter.

Operational Guidance
- Access coordination: Request access through the listed custodian so
sharing remains scoped to investigators already cleared on the escrow
matter.
- Synchronization discipline: Before running a new prompt, copy the
latest City National Bank ledger excerpts or supporting documents into
the workspace so Gemini outputs reflect current evidence.
- Evidence logging: Capture prompt/response hashes and timestamps in
the weekly evidence log to preserve traceability for IRS-CI and
FinCEN reviewers.
- Repository promotion: Export any final text snippets into this
repository (for example,
docs/ or analysis.md) so the auditable
chain of custody remains intact.
- Adding new resources: When introducing another external tool,
extend the table above with its URL, custodian, and usage rationale so
subsequent reviewers know why the workspace exists and how to treat
its contents.
