Competitor Teardown Skill

This skill produces a complete competitive analysis document — structured for use in strategy decks, investor materials, sales enablement, or product planning sessions.

Required Inputs

Ask the user for these if not provided:

• Your product (name + one-line description)
• Competitors to analyse (list 2–5 names; if not provided, ask)
• Analysis depth (quick overview / detailed teardown)
• Primary use case for this analysis (e.g. sales enablement, investor deck, internal strategy, product planning)

Deeper Materials

• references/intel-sourcing-guide.md — where competitive facts come from (four source tiers), which source to use per teardown section, the [verified]/[reported]/[assumed] confidence labels, and the ethics line. Apply its labelling to every substantive claim in the output.
• templates/teardown-skeleton.md — a fill-in teardown with the confidence labels and a verification queue built in. Offer it when the user wants to gather the intel themselves.

Output Structure

1. Competitive Landscape Overview

One paragraph summarising the market dynamic: who the key players are, how the market is segmented, and where the white space sits. Keep this under 150 words — it's the exec summary.

2. Positioning Map

Describe a 2x2 positioning map in text form (since you can't render images):

• Define the two axes relevant to this market (e.g. "Ease of Use vs. Depth of Features" or "Price vs. Enterprise Readiness")
• Place each competitor in one quadrant with a one-sentence rationale
