skills/competitive-analysis/SKILL.md
Analyze competitors and create competitive landscape documentation with feature matrices, positioning maps, and strategic recommendations. Use when asked to analyze competitors, create competitive analysis, compare features with competitors, build a competitive landscape, track competitive positioning, or prepare sales battlecard inputs. Produces structured competitor profiles, feature comparison matrix, win/loss analysis, and prioritised strategic recommendations. For a one-off teardown of a single rival use competitor-teardown; for a recurring market briefing use competitive-intelligence-monitor.

Create structured competitive analyses for product decision-making.
If a professional-brain (brain/) exists, ground in it instead of re-asking for what you already know:
knowledge/ (market + positioning) and competitor entities/. Run python3 ../professional-brain/scripts/brain_query.py ./brain "<competitor or market>" and carry each fact's provenance tag through — a competitor claim from a press release is [external], not [data].knowledge/ ([external]) and creating/updating competitor entities/. Show them, get a yes, then write with ../professional-brain/scripts/brain_write.py … --commit (append-only, dry-run by default).Ask the user for these if not provided:
For each competitor:
| Feature | Us | Competitor A | Competitor B | Competitor C | |---------|-----|--------------|--------------|--------------| | [Feature] | ✅ Full | ⚠️ Limited | ❌ None | ✅ Full |
Legend: ✅ Full (production-ready) · ⚠️ Limited/Beta · ❌ None
Include notes on quality and implementation differences where significant.
| Plan | Us | Competitor A | Competitor B | |------|-----|--------------|--------------| | Free/Trial | [price] | [price] | [price] | | Pro | [price] | [price] | [price] | | Enterprise | [price] | [price] | [price] |
Position competitors on two key dimensions relevant to the market:
Whitespace Opportunities: [Underserved segments]
Why We Win:
Why We Lose:
Immediate Actions (0-3 months):
Medium-term (3-12 months):
business
Analyze why deals are won and lost and turn it into an action plan. Use when asked to run a win/loss analysis, review closed-won and closed-lost deals, understand why the team is losing to a competitor, or summarize sales feedback into patterns. Produces a structured win/loss report with themes, win/loss rates by segment and competitor, representative quotes, and prioritized actions for product, marketing, and sales.
development
Route a fuzzy request to the right skill in this library. Use when the user is unsure which skill fits, asks 'which skill should I use for X', describes a task without naming a skill, or when a request could plausibly match several skills. Produces a best-fit recommendation with the inputs to gather, a runner-up with the tie-breaker, and a workflow recipe when the job spans multiple skills.
testing
Triage a vulnerability or scanner finding — assess real severity, exploitability, and how urgently to fix. Use when asked to triage a CVE, prioritize scanner/pentest findings, assess a vuln's risk, or decide what to patch first. Produces a triage verdict: CVSS-informed severity adjusted for your context, exploitability, real risk, a fix/mitigation, and an SLA — so you fix what matters, not just what's red.
development
Stand up a Voice of Customer (VoC) program that turns feedback into action. Use when asked to build a VoC program, design a customer feedback loop, consolidate feedback sources, or set up a closed-loop feedback process. Produces a VoC program design — objectives, feedback sources and channels, a taxonomy, collection and analysis cadence, closed-loop routing, ownership, and success metrics.
