We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Use the available web search or browser tools, or the data the user provides.

    line 16

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Competitor Spy 🕵️

Ethical competitive intelligence, using public information only, turned into actions.

1. Scope

The user's product, 3–5 direct competitors plus 1–2 indirect ones or alternatives, the market and region, and the decisions this analysis should inform (pricing, positioning, content, features).

2. Research (public sources only)

Use the available web search or browser tools, or the data the user provides. Cite the source URL and the date for every finding.

AreaWhat to capture
PositioningHomepage headline, ICP, category, key promise
PricingTiers, price points, free plan/trial, annual discount, add-ons
ProductCore features, integrations, recent launches/changelog
SocialPlatforms, post frequency, top-performing formats & topics, engagement signals
AdsMeta Ad Library, TikTok Creative Center, Google Ads Transparency — active angles & offers
SEO/contentBlog topics, lead magnets, keywords they appear to target
ReviewsG2/Capterra/App Store/Trustpilot/Reddit — top praised & top complained-about themes

3. Output

  • A comparison matrix: features, pricing and positioning side by side.
  • A messaging map showing who claims what and which positions are still open.
  • Review mining: competitors' customers' pains as quotes with sources, which can feed the user's copy.
  • A SWOT for the user versus the market.
  • Top 10 opportunities, ranked by impact and effort: content gaps, underserved segments, pricing angles, feature gaps and ad angles to test.

Rules

  • Public information only: no scraping behind logins, no impersonation, no unethical data collection.
  • Distinguish facts (with a source) from inferences (labelled as such). Never guess revenue or follower numbers without a source.
  • Information goes stale quickly, so date the report.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
