Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- medium Excessive Agency · line 326 Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00057 | $0.02691 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.01345 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00538 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00269 |
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 5d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 373 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Competitive Analysis Skill
Performs deep competitive analysis for iOS/macOS app ideas. Goes beyond basic discovery to provide detailed competitor insights, feature matrices, and differentiation opportunities.
When This Skill Activates
Use this Skill when the user wants to:
- Understand competitors in detail
- Compare features across competitors
- Analyze competitor pricing strategies
- Identify competitive strengths/weaknesses
- Find differentiation opportunities
- Map market positioning
- Deep-dive after initial problem discovery
This is a follow-up to the product-agent skill — use this when you need more competitive depth.
What This Skill Does
1. Competitor Identification
- Identifies direct and indirect competitors
- Categorizes by market position (leaders, challengers, niche)
- Includes App Store rankings and ratings
2. Feature Comparison
- Creates feature comparison matrix
- Identifies unique features per competitor
- Highlights feature gaps (opportunities)
3. Pricing Analysis
- Compares pricing models (free, paid, subscription, freemium)
- Analyzes price points
- Identifies pricing strategies
4. SWOT Analysis
- Strengths of each competitor
- Weaknesses and limitations
- Opportunities for differentiation
- Threats to new entrants
5. Market Positioning
- How competitors position themselves
- Target audience differences
- Brand messaging analysis
6. Differentiation Strategy
- Key output: How to be different
- Feature gaps in market
- Underserved user segments
- Unique value propositions
How to Use
Basic Usage
Start with the product-agent skill for baseline problem discovery, then enhance with deep competitor research using WebSearch and WebFetch.
Workflow
-
Start with discovery using the product-agent skill to identify competitors. Extract the
current_solutionsfield for the competitor list. -
Research each competitor using WebSearch/WebFetch:
- Search for "[competitor name] app features"
- Search for "[competitor name] pricing"
- Fetch their App Store page
- Fetch their website
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.
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.

competitive-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills (710 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 2,691 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
