name: competitor-analysisdescription: "Analyze 2-5 competitors once: positioning, content, SEO, ads, pricing. Ongoing → competitor-monitor. \"how do we stack up against X\""argument-hint: "[competitor names]"
/digital-marketing-pro:competitor-analysis
Purpose
Deliver a comprehensive competitive intelligence report across all major marketing dimensions. Identify competitor strengths, weaknesses, strategies, and gaps the brand can exploit.
Input Required
The user must provide (or will be prompted for):
Competitors: 2-5 competitor names and/or URLs
Analysis scope: Full analysis or specific dimensions (SEO, content, ads, social, pricing)
Key battleground keywords: Terms where the brand competes head-to-head
Industry/category: For contextual benchmarking
Process
Load brand context: Read ~/.claude-marketing/brands/_active-brand.json for the active slug, then load ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/profile.json. Apply brand voice, compliance rules for target markets (skills/context-engine/compliance-rules.md), and industry context. Also check for guidelines at ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/guidelines/_manifest.json — if present, load restrictions and relevant category files. Check for custom templates at ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/templates/. Check for agency SOPs at ~/.claude-marketing/sops/. If no brand exists, ask: "Set up a brand first (/digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup)?" — or proceed with defaults.
AI visibility: How competitors appear in AI answer engines versus the brand
Pricing and positioning: Pricing models, value proposition, messaging frameworks, market positioning
Synthesize findings into strategic opportunities and threats
