Competitive Landscape

What it does

When your agent uses it

• A user says who are my competitors
• Map the competitive landscape
• What exists in this space
• Show me similar projects

Example prompts

• “who are my competitors”
• “map the competitive landscape”
• “what exists in this space”
• “/competitive-landscape”

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Check for .superstack/idea-context.md in the workspace. If found, use the chosen idea's domain. If not, ask the user what space to analyze.
2. 2Read references/landscape-mapping.md for the mapping methodology.
3. 3Search the solana-new ecosystem catalogs as described in references/ecosystem-catalog-guide.md.
4. 4Assess defensibility using references/moat-analysis.md.
5. 5Do fresh web research: crypto Twitter, GitHub, DeFiLlama, app directories.
6. 6Produce a landscape HTML artifact with the full competitive matrix.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 38a494a. 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

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

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

  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

Competitive Landscape loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 470 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~78

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.7k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~3.1k

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

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.

Map the competitive landscape for a crypto product idea. Use when a user says "who are my competitors", "map the competitive landscape", "what exists in this space", "show me similar projects", or "competitive analysis". Leverages solana-new's catalogs of 106 repos, 78 skills, and 36 MCPs.
