## What it does

The skill casts the agent as a competitive intelligence analyst. You point it at pricing pages, and it tracks changes, spots promo cycles and reads shifts in how a competitor prices things. Output is a markdown report: results first, then recommended next steps for your own pricing.

The response format is fixed — a timestamp, the results block, then recommendations. There are no scripts or scrapers inside; it is a markdown instruction for the agent, so collecting the page data depends on the tools your agent already has. No web access means nothing to track.

It earns its place where prices move often. The skill pushes for concrete output and examples, so name the competitors and paste the page URLs when you ask.
