What it does

When installed, the agent follows a two-phase method for research reports. First it drafts an analysis blueprint for a topic: chapter outline, the data each chapter needs, and the analytical frameworks to apply (such as SWOT, Porter's Five Forces, or PESTEL). Later, once data has been gathered by other tools or skills, it writes a Markdown report in a consulting tone, with charts, comparison tables, and inline citations, and it is instructed not to invent numbers where data is missing.

Great for

  • Analysts or strategy staff who want a structured first draft of a market, industry, or brand report
  • Students learning how consulting-style frameworks are applied to a real topic
  • Teams that already have collected data summaries and need them turned into a readable report

Skip it if

  • Decisions that depend on verified figures: the skill only sees the data you supply and its instructions do not guarantee the report is accurate, so every number should be checked against sources
  • Users who need a fully automated data-gathering run: the SKILL.md itself does not collect data and relies on other skills for that
  • Languages or citation standards outside the configured output locale and GB/T 7714-2015 style without adjustment

Try asking

  • “Create an analysis framework for a market analysis of Gen-Z skincare products in China”
  • “Write a consulting-grade competitive landscape report for the electric vehicle industry using the data summary I provide”
  • “Build a chapter skeleton and data requirements for a brand consumer profiling study of Brand X”
  • “Turn these research findings and chart files into a final professional report with citations”

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give a clear research subject, scope (geography, time range, audience) and any hypotheses in Phase 1 so the framework is targeted.
  • Supply your own verified data summary before Phase 2; the skill is designed not to fabricate data, so gaps will be marked as unavailable.
  • Review the output_locale setting and check all cited sources manually before using the report externally.
