Take a benchmark the user envies — a founder, KOL, company, or product whose success looks suspiciously shiny — and produce a teardown that ends in "what this means for ME", not a neutral report. The deliverable answers three questions a balanced briefing never does: How much of this success is real vs marketing bubble? How much is replicable method vs luck/timing? And what, specifically, can the commissioner do with it?
Benchmark Due Diligence is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the growth-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/benchmark-due-diligence/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use whenever the user wants to 尽调/对标/拆解 a competitor or role-model, 抄/偷师 someone's playbook, suspects 水分/泡沫 in their claims (#1 on Product Hunt, 0-to-1M users, funding, 估值几个亿), asks whether wins are 真本事 vs 运气/时机, or says someone is 太成功了/crushing it and wants the real story — even if they never say 尽调. Prefer over deep-research for debunking inflated claims and extracting a replicable playbook rather than a neutral briefing.
The Benchmark Due Diligence Claude Code skill is built for growth marketers, product-led growth teams, founders running experiments, and performance marketing teams. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
