What it does

Market Research is an agent skill from gooseworks-ai/goose-skills. Research market trends, size, competitors, and growth opportunities

Its SKILL.md is about 980 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill.meta.json`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Market research. The repository describes itself as: Library of Growth & GTM skills + data APIs for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor to run ads, social, content, lead gen, seo and data scraping. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Market research

Example prompts

  • “/market-research”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js
  • A credential in GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify Key Players
  2. Research Company Details
  3. Find Decision Makers

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c650c6d. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • python3
    • npx

    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:

    • api.gooseworks.ai

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Market Research loads about 983 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 21 tokens; SKILL.md has 129 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~21
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~983

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.

Market Research - Comprehensive Market Analysis

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

bash
export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Research market size, trends, competitors, and growth opportunities for any industry.

Workflow

Step 1: Identify Key Players

Find companies in the market:

bash
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/natural-language-search/companies"}'
  "query": "AI software companies with over 100 employees, Series B or later funding"
}'
Step 2: Research Company Details

Get detailed info on key players:

bash
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/company-search"}'
  "searchParams": {
    "company_names": ["OpenAI", "Anthropic", "Cohere"],
    "include_financials": true
  }
}'
Step 3: Find Decision Makers

Identify leadership at key companies.

Use Apollo first ($0.01 flat per call — cheapest option):

bash
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/apollo/mixed_people/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "person_titles": ["CEO", "CTO", "VP Product", "Head of Sales"],
  "organization_domains": ["openai.com", "anthropic.com"],
  "per_page": 25
}'

Fallback — Fiber people search ($0.02/record):

bash
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/fiber/v1/people-search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "searchParams": {
    "company_names": ["OpenAI", "Anthropic"],
    "job_titles": ["CEO", "CTO", "VP Product", "Head of Sales"]
  }
}'

Example Usage

bash
# Find companies by industry and size
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/natural-language-search/companies"}'
  "query": "EdTech companies with 50-500 employees founded after 2018"
}'

# Search by specific criteria
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api":"fiber","path":"/v1/company-search"}'
  "searchParams": {
    "industries": ["Enterprise Software"],
    "employee_count_min": 100,
    "funding_stage": ["Series A", "Series B"]
  }
}'

Tips

  • Cite specific sources and dates for statistics
  • Compare multiple analyst reports
  • Look for both bullish and bearish perspectives
  • Update research quarterly for fast-moving markets
