competitor-analysis
Compare two or more companies, products, or platforms across pricing, features, positioning, and docs. Use this skill whenever the user says "compare X vs Y", "how does X stack up against Y", "alternatives to X", "competitive landscape of …", "X vs Y vs Z", or asks for a competitor matrix. Uses search to discover competitors when the user only names a category, then scrape for each competitor's homepage, pricing page, and features/docs. Returns a normalized comparison matrix as JSON.
