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-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 8d 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.

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:

  1. Competitor name(s) — one or more competitors to analyze (required)

  2. Your company/product context (optional but recommended):

    • What you sell and to whom
    • Your positioning or value proposition
    • Key differentiators you want to highlight
  3. 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:

  1. Company website — homepage messaging, product pages, about page, pricing page
  2. Recent news — press releases, funding announcements, product launches, partnerships (last 6 months)
  3. Content strategy — blog topics, resource types, social media presence, webinars, podcasts
  4. Review sites and comparisons — third-party comparisons, analyst mentions, customer review themes
  5. 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.
