market-research · c0x12c — Claude Code skill: research and setup
Research markets, competitors, funds, or technology with a structured workflow. Use the skill to gather evidence before testing a business idea or contacting an investor.
npx skills add c0x12c/ai-toolkit --skill market-research -a claude-codeWhat market-research does
The skill adapts its research to the question: sizing a market, comparing competitors, checking an investor, or examining a technology. It can look at a fund’s stage and past investments, compare products by pricing and customer acquisition, or assess a tool’s setup demands and risks.
Deliverables include findings, caveats, next steps, and sources. For market sizing, the workflow favors calculations based on actual customer figures and asks for assumptions to be visible. Major claims need evidence, so estimates should stay distinct from sourced facts.
WebSearch and WebFetch are available for finding and reading material; Read handles project files. Research documents go into the project’s 02-research/ folder.

- estimate a market and show the calculation
