Primary Market Industry Research Report

Generate professional industry research reports in an institutional primary-market (PE/VC) research style.

Reference Source

  • Type: Uploaded artifact (PDF)
  • Reference File Type: PDF
  • Languages: Chinese or English (auto-detect from user query; default to user's language)

Supported Outputs

  • PDF (default)
  • DOCX
  • PPTX (if explicitly requested)

Default output: PDF. If user explicitly requests DOCX or PPTX, honor that request.

Workflow

  • Understand the research scope from user query: target industry, sub-topics, depth, page count
  • Determine report style based on user preference or task context:
  • Style A (Deep Discussion): Opinion-heavy, TMT/tech focus, numbered chapters (01, 02...), no TOC
  • Style B (Traditional Sector): Data-heavy, many charts and tables, TOC with multi-level numbering
  • Plan content structure using the appropriate structure contract (see references)
  • Research and gather data using web search and data source tools as needed
  • Review investment & financing history for the sector: search for key funding rounds, deal sizes, lead investors, IPO/exit events, and capital flow trends in the target industry. Sources include Crunchbase, PitchBook, CB Insights, IT桔子, 烯牛数据, and public deal announcements
  • Generate the report following the style and structure contracts precisely
  • Review for completeness: ensure all exhibits are numbered, sources cited, and formatting consistent

Style Selection Guide

Choose the report style based on context:

| Indicator | Use Style A (Deep Discussion) | Use Style B (Traditional) |

|-----------|------------------------------|---------------------------|

| Sector | TMT, AI, Software, SaaS | Consumer, Healthcare, Industrials, Materials |

| Tone | Opinion-forward, thesis-driven | Data-driven, objective |

| Charts | Moderate (native charts, benchmark tables for AI research) | Dense (pie charts, bar charts, line charts) |

| TOC | No | Yes, with 3-level hierarchy + dot-leaders + page numbers |

| Chapter numbers | 01, 02, 03... in red/dark-red | 1, 1.1, 1.2, 2.1... in black |

| Page count | 15-25 pages typical | 30-60 pages typical |

For detailed style rules, see references/style_contract.md.

Structure Templates

Two primary structure patterns are available. See references/structure_contract.md for full details.

Style A Structure (Deep Discussion)

Cover Page:
  [White background]
  [Institution logo (top-right): icon + institution name (bilingual)]
  [Main title: bold KaiTi, left-aligned, large, dark-red accent underline]
  [Author line: "Cr.: [Author Name]"]
  [Date line: "Date: YYYY-Mon"]
  [QR code (right side)]

Executive Summary (~1 page)
  [Bordered/quoted paragraph block]

01 [Chapter Title]
  [Section Heading in red/dark-red KaiTi]
  [Subsection Heading in red/dark-red KaiTi]

Style B Structure (Traditional Sector)

Cover Page:
  [White background, ultra-minimal]
  [Full title: centered, KaiTi, large]
  [Institution logo: centered below title]
  [Institution name: centered below logo]
  [Date: centered, bottom area (YYYY.MM format)]

Table of Contents (page 2-3)
  [Title "目录": centered, large character spacing]
  [1  [Main Chapter]..................p3]
  [  1.1 [Section]...................p3]

Content Pages:
  [Header: report title centered + horizontal rule below]
  [Footer: page number]

Typography Strategy

For Chinese-language reports

  • Headings: KaiTi (楷体) — calligraphic, distinctive institutional feel
  • Style A body: SimSun (宋体) — formal serif tone
  • Style B body: STKaitiSC-Regular (华文楷体) — consistent with heading font family
  • Latin text: Times New Roman (body + italic for sources), Arial Bold (header emphasis)
  • Chart labels: DengXian (等线) or Calibri for English labels
  • All document text paths use CJK-capable fonts consistently

For English-language reports

  • Headings: Georgia or Times New Roman — institutional serif feel
  • Body text: Times New Roman or Garamond — formal, readable
  • Chart labels / tables: Calibri or Arial
  • Header emphasis: Arial Bold

General

  • When exact reference fonts unavailable, prefer fonts from the same visual family
  • For bilingual content, ensure CJK and Latin fonts are harmonized in weight and size

Exhibit Numbering

  • Figures: Sequential numbering with caption below — "图 N" (Chinese) or "Figure N" (English)
  • Tables: Sequential numbering with caption above — "表 N" (Chinese) or "Table N" (English)
  • Data source note below each exhibit: "数据来源:xxx" (Chinese) or "Source: xxx" (English)
  • Reset numbering for each major section in Style B; continuous in Style A

Source Citation Rules

  • Every data point, statistic, or claim must have a source
  • Inline: cite source parenthetically or in footnote
  • Exhibits: "数据来源:" (Chinese) or "Source:" (English) below each figure/table
  • Preferred sources: government databases, industry associations, public company filings, reputable analyst reports, authoritative media

Key Quality Checks

  • [ ] Cover page matches selected style (Style A or B) precisely
  • [ ] Color palette matches selected style — NO custom dark themes or modern gradients
  • [ ] All chapter/section numbering is consistent and matches selected convention
  • [ ] TOC has dot-leaders AND page numbers (Style B only)
  • [ ] Running header with horizontal rule on all content pages (Style B)
  • [ ] All figures and tables are numbered and captioned
  • [ ] All data points have source attribution
  • [ ] Typography applied consistently per language (CJK fonts for Chinese reports, serif fonts for English reports)
  • [ ] Tables have clean borders: no vertical rules, header row has top/bottom borders, table has top/bottom thick borders (Style B)
  • [ ] Institution/publisher identity present (logo area or header text)
  • [ ] No placeholder text left in document

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take zebbern/vc-industry-research from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
