📖 Analysis Philosophy:
IMPORTANT — Working Directory: All scripts in this skill MUST be executed with the working directory set to the absolute path of the directory containing this SKILL.md file (the skill root directory). Always cd into this directory before running any command. Do NOT use relative paths or shell shortcuts like ~ in paths, as they may not be resolved by the execution environment.
Competitor Listing Analyzer
Product Understanding Step
Before running this skill, if the user provides a product, image, ASIN, listing, product ID, or product idea, first identify:
- product type/category
- main use case
- key physical, design, or functional features
- target marketplace, country, or platform
- user's analysis goal
Use this product understanding to choose parameters, filters, competitors, regions, keywords, or analysis dimensions before executing the script.
Core Question
**** — How do competitors write their listings?
When to Use
- User asks "how does competitor write their listing"
- User wants to analyze a specific ASIN's listing

- User asks "what can I learn from this listing"
Differs From / Not Applicable
- Use competitor-analyzer for price, reviews, BSR, traffic, sales, and business-performance comparisons.
- Use this skill for listing structure and creative/content audits.
- Do not use for market-level analysis, product validation, or review sentiment monitoring.

⚠️ MANDATORY: Charts & Display Rules
- Generate charts by default for full analytical reports — use
--chart with an output directory unless the user asks for a quick text-only result or chart data is unavailable.
- Send generated charts to the user — when charts are created, share all chart PNGs immediately.
- All chart styling is driven by
ecommerce_chart_helpers.py which reads from chart_style.json (derived from references/display-rules.md). Do NOT hardcode colors in scripts.
Usage
python3 scripts/competitor_listing_analyzer.py '{"asin": "B07RL88DD2"}'
