**MANDATORY SCREENSHOT WORKFLOW:**

2. Capture screenshot and save to `outputs/competitive_researcher/<customer_name>/screenshots/`
3. **IMMEDIATELY use Read tool to visually analyze the screenshot**

## Evaluation Criteria
**Quality Standards:**

- ✅ The data should be relevant to the objective of the agent (competitive positioning and comparison)
- ✅ All metrics extracted match what's visible in screenshots

## Workflow

## Output Structure

All outputs are organized in the outputs/ directory:

- Reports should go into `outputs/<agent_name>/<customer_name>/reports/`

- Raw outputs (csvs, jsons) should go into `outputs/<agent_name>/<customer_name>/raw/`
- Screenshots should go into `outputs/<agent_name>/<customer_name>/screenshots/`


NEVER ever put scripts or any outputs outside the "outputs" directory.
