competitive-analysis

competitive-analysis is a skill for Codex from PANGKAIFENG/ai-product-manager-skills. It costs 150 tokens per session (2,225 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A competitor research process that turns information about rival products, alternatives and market signals into guidance for your own product decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inform positioning, pricing, roadmaps, feature priorities, differentiation, go/no-go choices and product requirements.
Why use it?
It keeps competitor research focused on a decision instead of producing a long list of features or an aimless tour of another product.

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-analysis 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check_decision_brief.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

竞品决策分析 Skill(competitive-analysis)

中文速查

  • 中文名:竞品决策分析 / 竞品决策简报
  • 英文稳定名:competitive-analysis
  • 分类:决策调研 / 产品研究
  • 你可以这样叫我:帮我做竞品分析研究下这个新产品对我们有什么启发打开这个产品看看对产品决策有什么用分析 Krowork 这类产品把竞品信息转成 PRD 输入
  • 适合:围绕一个产品决策,把竞品、替代方案、市场信号和可选产品走查转成路线图、定位、定价、功能优先级、差异化或 Go/No-Go 输入。
  • 不适合:问题还没定义清楚(先用 ai-collaboration-calibration);只想建立长期主题认知或候选池(用 research-topic-compiler);已经只有 A/B/C 最终选择(用 decision-research);只要 UI 高保真参考(用 ui-mockup-desktop-workbench)。

核心原则

竞品分析服务产品决策,不服务信息完整性。

不要把“打开网站、登录、点完功能”当作目标。产品走查只是证据渠道之一。真正要回答的是:

  • 我们该学什么?
  • 我们该避开什么?
  • 我们需要验证什么?
  • 这会改变我们的产品路线、定位、定价或优先级吗?

如果用户只给了一个竞品 URL,先把它改写成决策问题,再决定是否需要浏览器、截图、登录态或外部评论渠道。

启动协议

先判断用户的请求处在哪一层:

层级 用户表述 处理方式
取证层 “打开这个网址点一下所有功能” 追问或推断它服务什么产品决策;走查只是可选证据渠道。
产品层 “这个产品对我们有什么启发” 进入本 Skill,输出 Product Decision Brief。
决策层 “我们要不要做这个方向 / 学它的定价 / 改路线图” 进入本 Skill;若只剩最终选择,交给 decision-research
研究层 “系统研究这个赛道,先沉淀一批竞品” 交给 research-topic-compiler 的 Product Candidate Research。

最多问 3 个启动问题;能从用户上下文、URL、仓库文档或已有 PRD 推断的,不要打断:

  1. 这次竞品分析要影响哪个产品决策?
  2. 我方产品、目标用户、当前阶段是什么?
  3. 是否允许使用登录态、截图、浏览器自动化或用户账号?如果没有明确授权,只用公开信息。

工作流

  1. 决策锚定

    • 把请求转成一句 decision_question
    • 写清 current_product_contextdecision_ownertime_budgetdecision_deadline,未知就标为假设。
    • 如果没有决策问题,先用 ai-collaboration-calibration 校准,不直接开始搜索。
  2. 竞品边界定义

    • 区分 direct competitor、workflow alternative、status quo、adjacent inspiration。
    • 如果用户只给一个产品,补充“它代表哪类替代方案”的推断。
    • 如果目标是候选池,转 research-topic-compiler;本 Skill 可消费候选池做决策简报。
  3. 证据渠道选择

    • 读取 references/evidence-channel-guide.md
    • 不要默认所有渠道全开;按决策问题选择 3-6 个高价值渠道。
    • 将产品走查、浏览器截图、OAuth 登录和 Computer Use 视为 Product Walkthrough Evidence,按 references/browser-walkthrough-boundaries.md 执行。
  4. 证据收集与分级

    • 官方页面、定价页、文档、changelog、案例、招聘、评论、社区、用户访谈和走查证据分开记录。
    • 每条证据标注:source、date/accessed_at、evidence_level、supports、contradicts、decision_implication。
    • 对动态信息、价格、当前功能、登录流程和评论,必须实时验证并给来源链接或截图路径。
  5. 从外部观察转成内部判断

    • 不输出“竞品有这些功能”就结束。
    • 把观察翻译成我方 taxonomy:用户任务、激活路径、付费触发、协作模型、信息架构、AI 能力边界、信任机制、增长入口、运营负担。
    • 对每个可借鉴点写清:照抄会错在哪里、需要适配的我方上下文、最小验证动作。

What ships with it

6 files 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.
