Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins at da38ec1ee8.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

1 file, 101 lines
This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The competitive-intelligence skill enables AI agents to autonomously gather, analyze, and synthesize market data from public sources. It transforms raw information into actionable insights regarding competitors, industry trends, and potential opportunities without manual intervention.

When to use it

  • Monitor competitor pricing strategies and product launches in real-time.
  • Identify emerging market gaps by analyzing customer sentiment across review platforms.
  • Track regulatory changes or supply chain shifts affecting your specific industry sector.
  • Benchmark your organization's performance against key players using aggregated public metrics.

Key capabilities

  • Automated data collection from diverse online sources including news sites and social media.
  • Natural language processing to extract relevant entities and trends from unstructured text.
  • Synthesis of disparate data points into coherent strategic reports.
  • Continuous monitoring workflows that alert agents to significant market shifts.

Example prompts

  • "Analyze the top five competitors in the electric vehicle charging sector and summarize their recent marketing campaigns."
  • "What are the current sentiment trends regarding remote work policies among tech companies based on recent news?"
  • "Identify potential new market opportunities for sustainable packaging by reviewing recent industry reports and customer complaints."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has appropriate access permissions to browse the web or connect to specific data APIs required for this skill. While the tool processes public information, verify that the synthesized insights align with your internal strategic goals before making high-stakes decisions based solely on automated analysis.
