# Competitive Intel Watch ## Purpose Make run N+1 a diff instead of a rebuild. A monitor that re-derives everything each time produces a document nobody reads twice, because there is no way to see what changed. This run holds a prior snapshot, sweeps a fixed set of surfaces, applies a **materiality bar**, and reports only what cleared it — in was/now format, with flags naming which artifact needs updating and who owns it. **"No material change" is a valid and valuable output.** Say it in one line and stop. A monitor that always finds something has stopped filtering, and the moment a reader learns that, every future run is discounted. This run is built to execute without a human answering questions, which is what makes it schedulable. ## When to Use It Use it monthly for a full pass and weekly for the fastest-moving surfaces. Use it after a snapshot has established a baseline. Use it as the scheduled job that keeps battle cards from rotting. Do not use it when: - **No prior run exists.** Then this is a baseline, not a delta, and it must say so. Run `mi-snapshot-competitors` first — a first snapshot presented as a change report tells the reader everything moved. - **You need the pricing time series.** That is `mi-monitor-pricing-packaging`, which stores verbatim captures. - **You need macro factors.** That is `mi-monitor-pestel-delta`. - **Something material just happened and you need depth.** Run the sweep or `mi-fuse-all-source`; a delta report is the wrong shape for
