SWOT Analysis
Perform a strategic analysis examining Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats.
Instructions
First clarify the subject and objective of the analysis. Then systematically examine each quadrant, considering both internal capabilities and external factors.
Output Format
Subject: What are we analyzing? Objective: What are we trying to achieve?
SWOT Matrix
| Helpful | Harmful | |
|---|---|---|
| Internal | STRENGTHS | WEAKNESSES |
| - [strength 1] | - [weakness 1] | |
| - [strength 2] | - [weakness 2] | |
| - [strength 3] | - [weakness 3] | |
| External | OPPORTUNITIES | THREATS |
| - [opportunity 1] | - [threat 1] | |
| - [opportunity 2] | - [threat 2] | |
| - [opportunity 3] | - [threat 3] |
Strengths (Internal, Positive) What advantages do you have? What do you do well? What resources do you have? What do others see as your strengths?
Weaknesses (Internal, Negative) What could you improve? What do you lack? What do others see as weaknesses? Where are you vulnerable?
Opportunities (External, Positive) What trends could you take advantage of? What opportunities are open to you? How can you turn strengths into opportunities?
Threats (External, Negative) What obstacles do you face? What is your competition doing? Are there changing requirements or standards? Could weaknesses threaten your position?
Strategic Combinations
| Combination | Strategy |
|---|---|
| S-O (Strengths + Opportunities) | How to leverage strengths to capture opportunities |
| W-O (Weaknesses + Opportunities) | How opportunities can help overcome weaknesses |
| S-T (Strengths + Threats) | How to use strengths to counter threats |
| W-T (Weaknesses + Threats) | Where you're most vulnerable; what to shore up |
Key Insights Top 3 strategic implications from this analysis.
Recommended Actions Specific next steps based on the SWOT.
Guidelines
- Be honest about weaknesses—this is internal analysis
- Distinguish between current state and potential
- Be specific: "strong brand" is vague; "brand recognized by 80% of target market" is useful
- Consider multiple perspectives when available
- Focus on factors relevant to the objective

Build comprehensive attack trees to visualize threat paths. Use when mapping attack scenarios, identifying defense gaps, or communicating security risks to stakeholders.
Grafana Dashboards
Create and manage production Grafana dashboards for real-time visualization of system and application metrics. Use when building monitoring dashboards, visualizing metrics, or creating operational observability interfaces.
Matplotlib
Foundational plotting library. Create line plots, scatter, bar, histograms, heatmaps, 3D, subplots, export PNG/PDF/SVG, for scientific visualization and publication figures.
Scientific Visualization
Create publication figures with matplotlib/seaborn/plotly. Multi-panel layouts, error bars, significance markers, colorblind-safe, export PDF/EPS/TIFF, for journal-ready scientific plots.
Seaborn
Statistical visualization. Scatter, box, violin, heatmaps, pair plots, regression, correlation matrices, KDE, faceted plots, for exploratory analysis and publication figures.
Shap
Model interpretability and explainability using SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations). Use this skill when explaining machine learning model predictions, computing feature importance, generating SHAP plots (waterfall, beeswarm, bar, scatter, force, heatmap), debugging models, analyzing model bias or fairness, comparing models, or implementing explainable AI. Works with tree-based models (XGBoost, LightGBM, Random Forest), deep learning (TensorFlow, PyTorch), linear models, and any black-box model

Scientific Visualization
Meta-skill for publication-ready figures. Use when creating journal submission figures requiring multi-panel layouts, significance annotations, error bars, colorblind-safe palettes, and specific journal formatting (Nature, Science, Cell). Orchestrates matplotlib/seaborn/plotly with publication styles. For quick exploration use seaborn or plotly directly.
