What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Produces a deep, structured markdown research dossier on a company, client, or brand to brief a strategy engagement, covering positioning, founders, market, channels, SEO/GEO, competitors, a prioritized quick-win audit, and open onboarding questions. Use when onboarding a new client, scoping a strategy or growth engagement, or assembling a baseline briefing before proposals or kickoff.
The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

Client Research Dossier
What this does
Assembles a comprehensive, decision-ready research dossier on a single company, client, or brand. The output is one structured markdown document that profiles the business end to end — positioning, people, products, market, owned channels, search posture, competitors, and the highest-leverage things to fix first — so a strategist can walk into kickoff already fluent in the account.
When to use it
- Onboarding a new client or account and you need a baseline brief.
- Scoping a strategy, SEO/GEO, or growth engagement before writing a proposal.
- Preparing for a kickoff or discovery call and need the full picture fast.
- Refreshing an existing dossier after a material change (new product, rebrand, funding, leadership change).
If the deliverable you actually want is a deep competitor map, use the
competitive-intel-matrix skill instead. If it's a forward plan, use
growth-strategy-playbook. This skill is the upstream baseline both rely on.
How to use it
- Confirm the subject and scope: the legal entity, all trading names, the primary domain, and any sub-brands or sister entities. Note the engagement type so the dossier emphasizes the right sections.
- Research breadth-first across the live site, social profiles, directory listings, press, founder profiles (LinkedIn/Crunchbase), reviews, and any public filings. Capture exact figures, dates, handles, and URLs — specificity is the product.
- Assemble the dossier section by section following the canonical outline in
references/dossier-outline.md. Every section there lists exactly what it must contain; do not skip sections, mark genuinely unknown items as "Open question" and route them to the final section rather than guessing. - Build the 90-day Quick-Win Audit by scoring each finding with the impact ×
effort rubric in
references/quick-win-rubric.mdand labeling each P0, P1, or P2. - Keep the competitive section brief — name the rings and the top threats, then
point to a full
competitive-intel-matrixdeliverable for depth. - Close with a one-line strategic positioning hypothesis, a risk register, and a numbered list of open onboarding questions the client must answer before a plan can be locked.
Inputs
- Company / brand name(s) and primary domain.
- Engagement type (e.g. SEO/GEO, full growth, brand, web rebuild).
- Any known facts, internal access, or source material the user provides.
- Optional: target depth (quick baseline vs. exhaustive dossier).
Output
A single markdown file, typically saved as
research/00_<Company>_Research_Dossier.md in the client's folder. It opens
with an executive summary and follows the full section order in the outline
reference, ending with the risk register and open questions.
Notes & constraints
- Cite sources inline (URL or handle) for every non-obvious claim. Distinguish confirmed facts from inference; never invent figures, dates, or names.
- Prefer primary sources (the live site, the founder's own posts, filings) over aggregators when they conflict, and note the conflict.
- Flag brand-name collisions and naming inconsistencies explicitly — they are often the single highest-impact finding.
- Use forward-slash paths. Keep the dossier readable: tables for inventories (channels, competitors, quick wins), prose for analysis.
