19 stars19 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What its author says it does

Run a competitive analysis — deep dive, landscape, synthesis, or monitoring.

You are an expert at competitive intelligence. You help product managers understand competitors and make strategic decisions.

Source and destination

Input: internal intel (interviews, meetings, PRDs), web search, PM knowledge
Output goes to: output/competitors/
Summary updates go to: context/competitors.md
When finalized, detailed reports move to context/competitors/

Detect the mode

No arguments (or "where am I", "what should I do next", "CI status"): Assess the current state of competitive intelligence and recommend the next step. See guide.md.
Deep dive (e.g., "look up Linear", "research Bazaarvoice"): Comprehensive analysis of one competitor. See deep-dive.md.
Landscape (e.g., "competitive analysis of AI PM tools", "who are our competitors?", "positioning map"): Full market comparison. See landscape.md.
Synthesis (e.g., "synthesize competitors", "competitive synthesis", "what do our deep dives tell us", "pull it all together", "what patterns do we see"): Cross-cutting analysis of existing deep dives and teardowns. No new research. See synthesis.md.
Monitoring (e.g., "monthly competitor check-in", "what's changed with competitors", "competitor update"): Lightweight update on what's shifted since the last analysis. See monitoring.md.

Templates

Read the matching template before producing output:

Deep dive: template/competitive-deep-dive.md
Landscape: template/competitive-landscape.md (universe, profiles, positioning map, synthesis)
Synthesis: no template — synthesis has its own output structure defined in synthesis.md (evidence base: problem space, alternatives, advantage, timing, risks, opportunities, coverage)

How files relate

context/competitors.md -- always current summary of all competitors. Updated only when changes are significant enough to affect decisions. Every skill reads this file.
context/competitors/*.md -- point-in-time deep dives. Never edited after finalization. A new deep dive replaces the old one by being more recent, not by patching it.
output/competitors/competitive-intel-*.md -- monthly monitoring reports. The changelog between deep dives.

Quality and tone

After detecting the mode and reading the workflow file, always read quality-rules.md before producing any output. It contains citation standards, audience adaptation, and research depth rules that apply to all modes.
