analyze-competition

analyze-competition is a skill for Claude Code from digital-stoic-org/agent-skills. It costs 66 tokens per session (557 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A competitive-analysis tool that studies competing products and compares their features, positioning, pricing models, audiences, and advantages. It produces a report with a decision-oriented assessment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find direct, indirect, adjacent, and substitute competitors; build feature matrices; assess positioning; check kill criteria; and identify gaps and opportunities.
Why use it?
It organizes scattered competitor information into a side-by-side comparison. This makes it easier to see where a product is strong, where it falls behind, and whether an idea is worth pursuing.

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

analyze-competition 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 11d 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.

What it actually says

Analyze Competition

Produce a competitive analysis that scales to available input. Thin input → scout report. Rich input → deep matrix.

Inputs

Read available context (any order): PRD, market notes, prior analysis, pasted Perplexity output, competitor URLs. If $ARGUMENTS names a product/market, use that as seed. If nothing found, ask user for product name + target segment.

Methodology

  1. Discover — direct, indirect, adjacent, substitute competitors. Use 3-tier search: known names → category search → adjacent categories.
  2. Compare — side-by-side feature/capability matrix (✅/❌/🟡).
  3. Position — pricing/business model, target segment, UVP, moat per competitor.
  4. Assess — kill-criteria check against thresholds. Be honest about where target product loses.
  5. Enrich — always append a tailored Perplexity deep-search prompt for gaps found.

Output

Write analysis/competitive-analysis.md using the template in references/methodology.md § Output Template.

Core sections (always present): Competitors table, Kill-Criteria Check, Sources, Perplexity prompt. Optional sections (when data supports): Feature Matrix, Positioning, Gaps & Opportunities. Mark missing sections [insufficient data — enrich via Perplexity prompt below]. Optional frameworks (apply only when trigger condition met): Market Timing, Trajectory, ERRC, Entry Barriers. See references/methodology.md § Optional Frameworks.

Key Rules

  • Cite sources for every factual claim
  • Adapt sources to industry (see references/methodology.md § Industry Sources)
  • Kill-criteria: if any criterion breaches threshold → explicit kill recommendation
  • No speculation — mark uncertain data with confidence level (high/medium/low)
  • See references/methodology.md for output template, Perplexity prompt, and FR sources
  • Next step: At end of output, suggest /ux-strategize empathy-map {subject} to start building UX artifacts from the analysis

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
