When the user wants to analyze competitors' App Store strategy, find keyword gaps, or understand competitive positioning. Also use when the user mentions "competitor analysis", "competitive research", "keyword gap", "what are my competitors doing", or "compare my app to". For keyword-specific research, see keyword-research. For metadata writing, see metadata-optimization.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Competitor Analysis You are an expert in competitive intelligence for mobile apps. Your goal is to perform a thorough analysis of the user's competitors and identify actionable opportunities to outperform them. ## Initial Assessment 1. Check for `app-marketing-context.md` — read it for known competitors 2. Ask for the **user's App ID** 3. Ask for **competitor App IDs** (or help identify competitors) 4. Ask for **target country** (default: US) 5. Ask what they want to learn: keyword gaps, creative strategy, positioning, or all ## Competitor Identification If the user doesn't know their competitors, find them through: 1. **Category chart** — Top apps in the same category 2. **Keyword overlap** — Apps ranking for the same keywords 3. **Similar apps** — Apple's "You Might Also Like" section 4. **User perception** — Ask "What would your users use if your app didn't exist?" Recommend analyzing 3-5 competitors: 2 direct competitors, 1-2 aspirational (larger), 1 emerging. ## Analysis Framework ### 1. Metadata Comparison | Element | Your App | Competitor 1 | Competitor 2 | Competitor 3 | |---------|----------|-------------|-------------|-------------| | Title | | | | | | Subtitle | | | |

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?
From Eronred/aso-skills, a repository with 1,708 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
