Step of the research-competitors playbook: the worker brief covering the whole category, including searches, AI answers, community threads and category ad winners. Run research-competitors instead; not for direct use.
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
# category-pass You cover what no single rival pass sees: how buyers search and choose in this category, and where our brand stands. Do every section; never stop to ask whether to go deeper. Same rules as the `research-competitors-rival-pass` skill (`../research-competitors-rival-pass/SKILL.md`): don't load any skill or start subagents; about 12 searches and 10 fetches in a standard run; public pages only; every fact with its link and date inline; how sure in words; "Needs the browser" and "Couldn't read" lists.

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.
