competitive-landscape

competitive-landscape is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bmbouter/redhat-agents. It costs 24 tokens per session (569 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A comparison of competing products in a specific capability area, covering what they offer, how they work, their strengths and weaknesses, and how your product compares. Competitive positioning means understanding how products differ and are perceived by the market.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare products for a defined capability, review pricing or availability, examine market positioning, and connect the findings with your own current or planned work. It can also query Jira for related product epics.
Why use it?
It gathers the information needed for product strategy, customer questions, or decisions about missing features. It reduces guesswork when explaining why one product compares differently from another.

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

competitive-landscape 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 4d 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 — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to Use

When the PM needs to understand competitive positioning for a feature area, prepare for a strategy discussion, or respond to "why don't we have what X has?"

Instructions

1. Define the scope

Ask the PM:

  • Capability area: What specific area are we comparing? (e.g., "container registry performance", "RBAC model", "CDN integration")
  • Competitors: Who should we compare against? Or should we identify them?
  • Purpose: Strategic planning? Customer question? RFP response? Feature prioritization?

2. Gather information

For each competitor, research:

  • What they offer in this capability area
  • How it works (architecture, approach, user experience)
  • Strengths: What they do well
  • Weaknesses: What they don't do well or don't support
  • Pricing/availability: Open source? Paid? Enterprise-only?
  • Market perception: How are they positioned?

Also check our own product:

  • Query Jira for existing or planned epics in this area
  • Review current capabilities

3. Build the comparison

## Competitive Landscape: [Capability Area]

### Our Position
- **Current state**: [What we offer today]
- **Planned**: [Relevant epics on the roadmap]
- **Strengths**: [Where we're ahead]
- **Gaps**: [Where we're behind]

### Competitor Comparison

| Capability | Us | Competitor A | Competitor B | Competitor C |
|------------|-----|-------------|-------------|-------------|
| [Capability 1] | ✅/⚠️/❌ | ... | ... | ... |
| [Capability 2] | ... | ... | ... | ... |

### Detailed Analysis

#### [Competitor A]
- **Approach**: [How they solve it]
- **Strengths**: [What they do well]
- **Weaknesses**: [What they don't do well]
- **Key differentiator**: [What makes them unique]

#### [Competitor B]
...

### Strategic Implications
- **Where we lead**: [Capabilities where we have an advantage]
- **Where we trail**: [Gaps that matter to customers]
- **Where it doesn't matter**: [Differences that aren't meaningful to our segment]

### Recommendations
1. [Invest in X because...]
2. [Don't pursue Y because...]
3. [Monitor Z because...]

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.
