Kpc Comb

Visualize Key Purchase Criteria importance and performance. Use for competitive positioning and product strategy.

Security Scan

Instruction-only skill that matches its name and description, asks for no credentials, performs no file/network operations, and appears internally coherent for producing KPC comb charts.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description (KPC comb) align with the SKILL.md content: the instructions describe producing importance vs performance analyses and comb-chart style outputs. No unrelated capabilities or credentials are requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md contains only guidance and templates for analyzing criteria and producing outputs. It does not instruct the agent to read system files, access environment variables, call external endpoints, or perform actions outside the stated analysis task. The instructions are somewhat high-level (use $ARGUMENTS) but remain within scope.

Install Mechanism

No install spec and no code files — nothing is written to disk or downloaded. This is the lowest-risk model for installation.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. There is no disproportionate request for sensitive access.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not request persistent/system-wide changes. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default but the skill itself does not request elevated privileges or modifications to other skills.

Assessment

This is an instruction-only, self-contained skill that appears coherent and low-risk. Before using it with real customer data, test with non-sensitive examples to confirm output format and behavior. Remember that although the skill requests no credentials or network access, any content you provide may be sent to the model provider as part of normal operation — avoid including PII, secrets, or sensitive competitive data unless you trust your deployment. If you want stricter control, disable autonomous invocation or run the templates locally in a controlled environment.

## Key Purchase Criteria: [Product/Category]

### Criteria Analysis

| Criterion | Importance (1-10) | Our Performance | Competitor A | Gap |
|-----------|-------------------|-----------------|--------------|-----|
| Price | 9 | 6 | 8 | -2 |
| Quality | 8 | 9 | 7 | +2 |
| Features | 7 | 7 | 8 | -1 |
| Support | 6 | 5 | 6 | -1 |
| Brand | 5 | 8 | 9 | -1 |
| Speed | 4 | 9 | 7 | +2 |

### Comb Visualization

High Importance, Low Performance (Fix Priority): ┌─────────────────┐ │ PRICE (9 vs 6) │ ← Gap: -2 └─────────────────┘

High Importance, High Performance (Maintain): ┌─────────────────┐ │ QUALITY (8 vs 9)│ ← Advantage: +2 └─────────────────┘

### Strategic Implications

**Strengths (Maintain):**
1. Quality - Strong competitive advantage
2. Speed - Differentiator in market

**Weaknesses (Improve):**
1. Price - Most important criterion, underperforming
2. Support - Gap vs. competitors

**Opportunities:**
1. Price repositioning
2. Support enhancement

### Action Plan

| Priority | Criterion | Action | Impact |
|----------|-----------|--------|--------|
| 1 | Price | Cost reduction / value messaging | High |
| 2 | Support | Investment in service | Medium |

Tips

• Focus on high importance criteria first
• Weight by customer segment if needed
• Update regularly as market evolves
• Validate with customer research
