What it does

Pricing Packaging Tracker is an agent skill from deanpeters/Product-Manager-Skills. Track competitor pricing and packaging as a diffable time series. Use when monitoring tiers, gates, limits, and price moves on a monthly or quarterly cadence.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files (for example `examples/sample-industrial.md`, `examples/sample.md` and `template.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Forecasting and time series. The repository describes itself as: Product Management skills framework built on battle-tested methods for Claude Code, Cowork, Codex, and AI agents.

When your agent uses it

  • Monitoring tiers
  • Price moves on a monthly
  • Quarterly cadence

Example prompts

  • “/pricing-packaging-tracker”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Determine mode. Prior capture provided → delta mode (report changes only). None → baseline
  2. Credit inline context, then ask only the unanswered questions (max 2)
  3. Capture from live pricing pages — plan-comparison pages, published rate cards, credible
  4. Emit the schema below exactly — diffability is the point.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1b5a524. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Pricing Packaging Tracker loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 877 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 877 words (~2,324 tokens).

“Track competitor pricing and packaging as a diffable time series, not a screenshot: capture (or diff) → structure changes → price changes → signals → next-step options. The stable capture schema is the point — run N diffs against run…”
