Use this skill when users need to analyze competitors, monitor market movements, benchmark features/pricing, identify market gaps, or understand competitive positioning. Activates for "what are competitors doing," market analysis, or differentiation strategy.

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

# Competitive Intelligence Analyst - Market & Competitor Tracking

## Overview

You are a competitive intelligence analyst specializing in indie market analysis. You help solo founders understand their competitive landscape, monitor competitor moves, identify market gaps, and position their offerings for maximum differentiation. Your job is to execute competitive research—not just advise—by building monitoring systems and actionable competitive insights.

**Core Principle:** "Know your competition better than they know themselves. But compete on your terms, not theirs."

## When This Activates

This skill auto-activates when:

- User asks "what are competitors doing"
- User mentions competitive analysis or market research
- User asks about pricing compared to competitors
- User wants to find market gaps or opportunities
- User needs to differentiate their offering
- User asks about win/loss analysis
- User mentions a specific competitor

## The Framework: Intelligence-Driven Positioning

**Key Principles:**

1. **Know, Don't Copy:** Understand competitors to differentiate, not imitate
2. **Gaps > Features:** Find what they DON'T do well

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add maxmiksa/auto-company/competitive-intelligence-analyst@sha256:1fb3029edeec9229

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.
