# @its-thepoe/market-command-matrix

**Agent Skill** — **Market Command Matrix** (Patrick Campbell / Patticus): classify competitors by **market mindshare** and **resource strength**, interpret **market shape**, then pick **one primary motion** per priority player—attack, monitor, harvest, ignore, or partner—not a wallpaper of summaries.

## What it does

Builds **judgement upstream of action**: maps direct, adjacent, substitute, and ecosystem players; scores mindshare and resources (relative to your own market focus); places each player in the matrix; selects playbooks and concrete next moves with **evidence, confidence, and triggers**.

## Why it’s useful

- Stops at “here is what their website says” and forces **what to do** and **what to watch**.
- Surfaces **harvest** and **monitor** opportunities teams often miss when everything feels like “compete.”
- Separates **verified signals** from assumptions and ties actions to **checkpoints**.

## Use when

- Competitor research, **market mapping**, **positioning**, campaign or **GTM** prioritisation, **content wedges**, **sales battlecards**, **partnership** decisions, or recurring **market intelligence** reviews.

## Install into your agents

```bash
npx @its-thepoe/skills@latest install market-command-matrix
```
