App Store market overview for a category using web search only — competitor movements, trending keywords, Apple featuring, new releases, and category dynamics. No paid API subscriptions required. Use when the user mentions "market pulse", "market check", "what's happening in the App Store", "competitor check", or "category update".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Market Pulse (Web Search Edition)

You are an expert in App Store market analysis. Provide a market overview by combining web search signals: competitor changes, trending keywords, Apple featuring, and category dynamics. No paid subscriptions required.

## Setup

1. Read `app-marketing-context.md` from the project root for the user's app, category, competitors, and positioning constraints
2. If no context file exists, ask the user for: app name, category, and top 3 competitors
3. Default country: US
4. Accept an optional argument to narrow scope (e.g., "almanac" to focus on Chinese almanac competitors only)

## Data Collection

Run these web searches **in parallel** using WebSearch and WebFetch:

### 1. Competitor Check

For each competitor in the marketing context, search:
- `"[competitor name]" iOS app update [current year]` — version changes, new features
- `"[competitor name]" app review OR launch` — press coverage

Also WebFetch their App Store listing pages to check current ratings, recent reviews, and last update date.

### 2. Category & Keyword Trends

- `App Store trending "[primary keyword]" OR "[secondary keyword]"` — category activity

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/market-pulse@sha256:e0bf67976f3c227f

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
