Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00055 | $0.02845 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.01138 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00569 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00284 |
Grade A, and why
competitive-brief 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
98% identical to competitive-brief — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 333 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Competitive Brief
If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see CONNECTORS.md.
Research competitors and generate a structured competitive analysis comparing positioning, messaging, content strategy, and market presence.
Trigger
User runs /competitive-brief or asks for a competitive analysis, competitor research, or market comparison.
Inputs
Gather the following from the user:
-
Competitor name(s) — one or more competitors to analyze (required)
-
Your company/product context (optional but recommended):
- What you sell and to whom
- Your positioning or value proposition
- Key differentiators you want to highlight
-
Focus areas (optional — if not specified, cover all):
- Messaging and positioning
- Product and feature comparison
- Content and thought leadership strategy
- Recent announcements and news
- Pricing and packaging (if publicly available)
- Market presence and audience
Research Process
For each competitor, research using web search:
- Company website — homepage messaging, product pages, about page, pricing page
- Recent news — press releases, funding announcements, product launches, partnerships (last 6 months)
- Content strategy — blog topics, resource types, social media presence, webinars, podcasts
- Review sites and comparisons — third-party comparisons, analyst mentions, customer review themes
- Job postings — hiring signals that indicate strategic direction (optional)
Research Sources
Gather intelligence from these categories of sources:
Primary Sources (Direct from Competitor)
- Website: homepage, product pages, pricing, about page, careers
- Blog and resource center: content themes, publishing frequency, depth
- Social media profiles: messaging, engagement, content strategy
- Product demos and free trials: UX, features, onboarding experience
- Webinars and events: topics, speakers, audience engagement
- Press releases and newsroom: announcements, partnerships, milestones
- Job postings: hiring signals that reveal strategic priorities (e.g., hiring for a new product line or market)
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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 333 lines · 55 tokens per session scan A 775e005d7d6c
competitive-brief is a skill published in the GitHub repository charlieviettq/awesome-agent-skill (26 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 2,845 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.

Other skills, from other repositories
tool-calling-tutor
Use when a tool-calling agent does not call a tool, sends wrong arguments, loops without stopping, or needs a function schema. Guides a four-branch diagnosis and five-step schema repair. Do not use for framework-specific, MCP-server, or production-observability questions.
dep-auditor
A read-only audit of a project’s third-party packages for known security issues, version health, and license facts. It uses the versions actually selected by lockfiles, which record the exact packages installed, rather than relying only on version ranges.
skill-curator
A Chinese-language evaluator for deciding whether developer tools and agent resources are suitable for a curated collection. It checks real repositories, installation paths, activity, duplicates, and security boundaries using evidence.
api-tester
A tool for creating and checking API tests from the real API contract and implementation. An API is the agreed way that software sends requests and receives responses.
env-manager
An environment-variable manager for project settings stored outside the code, often in .env files. It checks variable definitions and usage while keeping secret values out of reports and terminal output.
eslint-fix
A project-aware assistant for finding and fixing ESLint errors, warnings, and configuration compatibility problems. ESLint is a tool that checks JavaScript and TypeScript code for style and common mistakes.
