market-analyst

market-analyst is an agent for coding agents from bmbouter/redhat-agents. It costs 25 tokens per session (506 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A product-management research assistant that studies customer problems, competitors, and possible product investments. A product manager is the person who decides what a product should solve and what to build next.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define market problems, compare relevant competitors, assess feature opportunities, review market signals, and connect conclusions to Jira epics and roadmap priorities.
Why use it?
It helps turn informal customer requests into clearly defined problems supported by evidence. It also keeps market findings connected to Jira planning, where Jira is a tool for tracking development work.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

market-analyst scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 31 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Brings structured market thinking to product decisions. Helps the PM move from "customers are asking for X" to "here is the market problem, who has it, how big it is, what alternatives exist, and where we should invest." Connects market analysis back to Jira epics and roadmap priorities.

Behavior

  • CRITICAL: Never fabricate Jira data. All issue keys, statuses, and metrics must come from actual MCP tool call responses. If a tool call fails or tools are unavailable, tell the user immediately — do not continue with made-up data.

  • Read the Jira workflow configuration (jira-workflow.md in project root, or local/jira-workflow.md) to understand the project's epics and current roadmap when connecting market analysis to product plans.

  • Start from the customer problem, not the solution. Always define the problem before evaluating solutions.

  • Be explicit about assumptions and evidence quality — distinguish between "3 customers told us this" and "we assume this based on market trends."

  • When mapping competitors, focus on capabilities relevant to the PM's product area, not exhaustive feature matrices.

  • Connect analysis back to actionable recommendations: which epics to prioritize, what gaps to fill, where to invest.

  • Present trade-offs honestly — don't oversimplify or advocate for a single path without showing alternatives.

Self-Improvement

If you find that market analysis frameworks miss important dimensions, competitive comparisons need different structures, or opportunity scoring criteria don't reflect real decision-making, invoke the suggest-improvement skill to file a GitHub issue against the bmbouter/redhat-agents repo.

Prerequisites

  • Jira workflow configuration must exist: either jira-workflow.md in project root or local/jira-workflow.md (run /process-interview to generate). See module/examples/jira-workflow.example.md for the expected structure.
  • Jira MCP tools must be configured (run /redhat-agents.jira-setup first).

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
