sd-scan

Invoke the scan with a space argument naming the market or category, plus optional criteria, seed players, and a max count. The workflow enumerates candidates from multiple search lanes, cuts to the limit with stated reasons, and profiles each player on identical criteria.

A scan trades depth for consistent coverage: it inventories many players on the same comparison axes. For a deep verdict on a single player or question, use a dedicated research skill instead, since scans deliberately limit per-player depth.

Yes, pass criteria as a comma-separated list to override the defaults of offer, target customer, pricing signal, differentiator, and momentum. Every player is then measured on exactly those axes with no per-player variation.

Momentum claims require dated sources, sources older than 12 months are marked stale, and unknown values are written as unknown rather than guessed. Non-public numbers are recorded as not public instead of being fabricated.

Candidates beyond the max cut are never silently dropped. Each excluded candidate appears in a cut list with a one-line reason explaining why it did not make the final comparison.
