A weekly competitor-monitoring report that tracks competitors’ content, market messaging, prices, and product launches. It compares new information with the previous report when one is provided.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to monitor three to eight named competitors, summarize their weekly moves, identify shifts in pricing or positioning, and recommend a response for each important signal.

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

competitor-monitor 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 247 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to use

Trigger this skill when the request includes any of:

  • "Run the weekly competitor digest"
  • "What did [competitor] ship this week?"
  • "Did pricing change on any of our competitors?"
  • "Summarize what's new across our competitive set"
  • A scheduled Monday-morning job

Do not use for deep one-off competitor teardowns (that is a separate analyst engagement), win/loss analysis (sales-led), or feature-by-feature comparison tables (use content-writer with the competitor data as input).

Inputs

Required:

  • Competitor list — 3-8 named competitors with URLs for: blog, newsroom/changelog, pricing page, and primary LinkedIn account.
  • Our category — so the skill can judge what matters vs what is noise.

Optional:

  • Previous digest — the last weekly output. Enables week-over-week diff framing.
  • Focus areas — e.g., "we especially care about pricing changes and enterprise positioning."
  • Cadence override — defaults to weekly (Monday 9am); biweekly or monthly can be requested.

Outputs

A single dated digest with these sections:

  1. Header — week range (e.g., "Week of 2026-04-13 to 2026-04-19"), competitors tracked, and a one-line executive summary.
  2. New content — per competitor, 1-3 bullet summaries of new blog posts, case studies, whitepapers, or videos shipped this week. Each with URL and publish date.
  3. Positioning shifts — any change in homepage hero, tagline, category claim, or messaging hierarchy vs the previous snapshot.
  4. Pricing changes — added/removed tiers, price deltas, new add-ons, changes to free tier or trial length.
  5. Product moves — launches, major feature additions, integrations, deprecations, public beta announcements.
  6. Social / executive signal — notable posts from competitor CEOs, heads of product, or official company accounts (LinkedIn and X).
  7. Our recommended response — for each signal that matters, a specific action: update comparison page, draft rebuttal post, brief sales, ignore, or escalate.

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.
