Market Research Agent - Community Signal Intelligence
Scheduling
Goal
Classify user intent into pain / trend / competitor / discovery, fan-out to community sources via oma search fetch, score and cluster findings with deterministic CLI compute, auto-apply strategic frameworks, and emit a single LAW-compliant markdown brief.
Intent signature
- User asks about pain points, user complaints, or voice-of-customer signals for a product or category.
- User asks what is trending, growing, or declining in a space this week or month.
- User asks how one product compares to another in community sentiment or positioning.
- User asks for discovery or exploratory market research on a topic.
When to use
- Extracting real user pain points from community posts (Reddit, HN, GitHub Issues, Bluesky, Mastodon)
- Detecting trends in a product category over a time window (7d / 30d / 90d / 180d)
- Competitor sentiment analysis and SWOT positioning
- Open-ended discovery research across multiple sources
When NOT to use
- General web research without market framing -> use oma-search directly
- Single-source queries only -> use
oma search fetch standalone
- Delta tracking or trend velocity over time (v2 feature) -> defer
- Live dashboards or scheduled monitoring -> out of scope (v1 one-shot only)
Expected inputs
- Topic string and optional
--intent pain|trend|competitor|discovery
- Optional
--window 7d|30d|90d|180d (default: 30d)
- Optional
--sources <list> to override defaults
- Optional
--vs <entity> for competitor COMPARISON mode
- Optional
--frameworks auto|none|swot,5f,pestel
Expected outputs
- Single markdown brief at
.agents/results/market/{topic-slug}-{YYYYMMDD}.md
- Badge first-line,
What we learned: body opener (or COMPARISON title), engine footer
- No raw evidence dump; no Sources block; no em-dash; no
## in body (framework/COMPARISON sections excepted)
Dependencies
oma-search for all fetches (oma search fetch --only api); never fetches directly- Serena
trust-registry-cache (read-only); Trust Registry labels inherited from oma-search
resources/intent-rules.md, resources/operator-packs/, resources/output-laws.md
Control-flow features
- Branches by classified intent, window, source availability, and env key presence
- detect-trap gate before harvest (exit 2 on broad/ambiguous topic, exit 4 on invalid)
- Paid sources (X, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Perplexity) auto-skip when env key absent
- Framework auto-toggle by intent (see Routes table)
Structural Flow
Entry
- Run
oma market detect-trap "<topic>" to preflight the query.
- Classify or confirm intent from user prompt or
--intent flag.
- Select operator pack and framework set for the intent.
Scenes
- PREPARE: Parse topic and flags; run detect-trap; resolve intent, operator pack, window.
- ACT: Build per-source
oma search fetch URLs with operator pack query expansion.
- ACQUIRE: Fan-out harvest via
oma market harvest (parallel, per-source-limit 12, cache TTL 15m).
- VERIFY: Score, fuse, and cluster candidates; validate JSON at each pipe stage.
- FINALIZE: Render LAW-compliant markdown brief; run self-check; write to output path.
Transitions
- If detect-trap exits 2 (REFUSE), surface reframe suggestion and halt.
- If all sources blocked, exit 2 with per-source diagnostics.
- If partial harvest failure, proceed; render annotates "coverage: N/M sources".
- If zero clusters, emit preview message and suggest wider window.
- If
--vs <entity> flag is present, switch to COMPARISON template.
Failure and recovery
- detect-trap exit 2: surface REFUSE reason and suggested reframe; do not proceed to harvest.
- Network timeout (exit 6): report and suggest
--window reduction or --no-cache.
- Invalid JSON from any pipe stage: exit 4 with offending line in stderr.
- Render LAW self-check violation: strip or regenerate; exit 1 only if regeneration also fails.
- FS permission denied at write: exit 5.
Exit
- Success: brief file written; first 50 lines previewed; engine footer present.
- Partial success: source failures and framework skips are explicit in footer and stderr.

Resource scope

NETWORK | Community sources via oma search fetch (reddit, hn, bluesky, mastodon, github-issues, grounding) |

Preconditions
- Topic is non-empty and passes detect-trap (not demographic-shopping, not single-noun-too-broad).
- At least one keyless source is reachable (reddit, hn, bluesky, mastodon, github-issues, or grounding).
Effects and side effects
- Writes brief markdown to
.agents/results/market/{topic-slug}-{YYYYMMDD}.md.
- Populates local cache at
~/.cache/oma/market/{sha1-hash}/result.json (TTL 15m).
- Reads Serena
trust-registry-cache (no write).
Guardrails
- detect-trap first: never harvest without preflight;
--force bypasses only in test mode.
- Delegate all fetches:
harvest calls oma search fetch --only api; no direct platform HTTP.
- Trust labels read-only: no re-scoring; Trust Registry ownership stays with
oma-search.
- Paid sources auto-skip: drop silently with
[INFO] stderr if env key absent; never error.
- LAW self-check mandatory: render runs self-check before file write;
--no-self-check for debug only.
- No raw evidence dump: cluster internals (scores, item counts) stay in JSON output; markdown body paraphrases.
- Stdout pure JSON per stage: each pipe stage (except render) emits valid JSON only; stderr for warnings.
- No Serena writes in v1:
trust-registry-cache is read-only; write authority stays with oma-search.
Routes
| Intent | Operator pack | Auto frameworks | Notes |
|---|
pain | resources/operator-packs/pain.md | SWOT | Weights: engagement 0.40, freshness 0.30, quality 0.30 |
trend | resources/operator-packs/positive.md | SWOT | Weights: freshness 0.50, engagement 0.30, quality 0.20 |
competitor | resources/operator-packs/competitor.md | SWOT + Porter's 5F (v1.1 stub) | Weights: relevance 0.35, engagement 0.35, quality 0.30; --vs enables COMPARISON template |
discovery | resources/operator-packs/discovery.md | SWOT + PESTEL (v1.1 stub) | Weights: relevance 0.45, engagement 0.30, quality 0.25 |
Porter's 5F and PESTEL are v1.1 stub templates only; auto-enabled by intent flag but render as placeholder sections.
Default Workflow
- Preflight:
oma market detect-trap exits 0 or halts.
- Harvest: fan-out to keyless sources with operator-pack query; paid sources conditional on env keys.
- Score: apply intent-specific engagement weights and log1p normalization.
- Fuse: URL-canonicalize, deduplicate, RRF k=60, per-author cap <= 3.
- Cluster: entity overlap coefficient >= 0.4, MMR lambda=0.75, <= 3 representatives.
- Render: select frameworks, synthesize brief, run LAW self-check, write file.
