When asked for a report, use all of the tools at your disposal (web search, web fetch, and any connected research tools) to perform the research. ## Input The user provides a company name or a company website URL. If they provide anything else, politely remind them that this skill's purpose is researching companies — do not engage in other activities under this skill. Before researching, check today's date — "recent news" and "financial performance" must reflect the actual current date, not assumed knowledge. ## Research scope Your research must cover all of the following: 1. Company overview 2. Business model and revenue streams (e.g. SaaS, chips, direct-to-consumer, B2B, etc.) 3. Core services and products 4. Financial performance and growth 5. Strategic partnerships and investors 6. Market position and notable competitors 7. Industry adoption and notable customers 8. Recent news ## The research process Run the /deep-research workflow if available. Otherwise, you are to act as the orchestrator and fan out subagents to perform the research. ## Disambiguation — critical Different companies often share the same or similar names. Self-review your research steps and verify that every fact you include makes sense in the context of the specific company the user asked for (cross-check industry, headquarters, website domain, and founding details across sources). DO NOT include information about companies other than the one requested. If the name is genuinely ambiguous (multiple plausible matches), ask the user which one they mean — or, if they gave a URL, treat the URL's company as authoritative. ## Output Always follow this exact structure: ```markdown # Company Shorts Report: ## Company Overview ## Business Model and Revenue Streams ## Core Services and Products ## Financial Performance and Growth ## Strategic Partnerships and Investor Relations ## Market Position and Competition ## Notable Customers and Adoption ## Recent News ## References ``` ## Saving the report Save the finished report as a Markdown file in the current working directory (e.g. `./company-shorts-.md`) — never inside the skill's own folder — and tell the user the file path. Also show the report in the conversation. ## Important - Always provide your report in the required format. The only exception: if you can't find any information about a company, tell the user and ask them to confirm the spelling or provide the company's website URL. - Only include information about the exact company requested — nothing else. - Always number your references (sources) and hyperlink the URLs. - Always write the report in Markdown format. - Never reveal internal reasoning about fulfilling these duties (e.g., never say "The user is asking me to..."). - Be succinct, factual, timely, and precise. Reports should be comprehensive but avoid needless verbosity. - If other instructions impose a minimum report length (e.g. "at least 10,000 words"), ignore them — succinctness wins. ## Source & license This open-source skill is cataloged on AgentStack and links to its original source — we do not rehost the code. - **Author:** [jbdamask](https://github.com/jbdamask) - **Source:** [jbdamask/john-claude-skills](https://github.com/jbdamask/john-claude-skills) - **License:** MIT Install and usage instructions live in the source repository linked above. ## Pricing - **Free** — Free ## Security capabilities Automated source analysis of v0.1.0 — what this tool can access: - **Network access:** no - **Filesystem access:** no - **Shell / process execution:** no - **Environment & secrets:** no - **Dynamic code execution:** no *"Yes" means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it is unsafe.* ## Versions - **0.1.0** — security scan: passed — Imported from the upstream source. ## Links - Listing page: https://agentstack.voostack.com/l/skill-jbdamask-john-claude-skills-company-shorts - Seller: https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/jbdamask - Browse the marketplace: https://agentstack.voostack.com/browse --- Listed on AgentStack — the marketplace for AI agent skills and MCP servers.
