Open source tools and standards to lookup known files
Shameless plug: I wrote a small poc module to use hashlookup's bloom filter in yara (https://github.com/VirusTotal/yara). The idea is to easily discard files that are known to be safe and so to avoid launching thousands of yara rules on a file for nothing. One can also use it to keep track of some files that meet certain conditions for instance. The module can store any string in these filters so I see a lot of useful use-cases for this little thingy :)

Question about spyware
I am not an expert, but this is what I would start by doing. Ideally, if you can read javascript, try and understand what the tampermonkey script does. If you still have script, you could try analysing it with tools such as loki. Even if loki doesnt match it you could compute the sha256 signature and look it up on valhalla.
