insight-wave

Open-source plugins for consulting, sales, and marketing on Claude Code. 12 AGPL-3.0 plugins that automate the research-heavy, methodology-driven work behind B2B deliverables — trend scouting, portfolio positioning, sales pitches, content creation, visual production, and source verification.

Each plugin implements an established framework (Corporate Visions, Double Diamond, TIPS, IS/DOES/MEANS) rather than general-purpose text generation. Outputs include inline citations, structured data models, and quality gates. Every deliverable follows a reproducible methodology you can inspect and override.

What the plugins do

12 plugins organized around eight capability areas. Each area handles a distinct part of the consulting-to-delivery workflow; plugins within an area share data formats and can be used independently or together.

Research

cogni-research runs 5-25 parallel web research agents to produce multi-section reports with inline citations — from a basic 3,000-word scan to recursive deep-research trees of 15,000 words. Five report types (basic, detailed, deep, outline, resource), three source modes (web, local documents, hybrid), and a structural review loop before finalization. 3 skills and 8 agents.

Trend Intelligence

cogni-trends scouts industry trends across four TIPS dimensions with bilingual DE/EN web research, producing 60 scored trend candidates per run using multi-framework analysis (TIPS, Ansoff, Rogers, CRAAP). The value-modeler consolidates candidates into 3-7 investment themes with solution blueprints. Reusable industry catalogs accumulate knowledge across engagements. Purpose-built for DACH markets with curated German institutional sources (VDMA, BITKOM, Fraunhofer). 6 skills and 9 agents.

Eight industry taxonomies (ICT, SaaS, FinTech, HealthTech, MarTech, Industrial Tech, Professional Services, Open Source) classify your portfolio automatically. 18 skills and 17 agents.

Content Production

cogni-marketing bridges portfolio propositions and trend themes into channel-ready content across 16 formats — blogs, LinkedIn articles, whitepapers, battle cards, email nurtures, video scripts, and more. A 3D content matrix (market x GTM path x content type) tracks coverage gaps. cogni-copywriting polishes any document for executive readability using 7 messaging frameworks (BLUF, Pyramid, SCQA, STAR, PSB, FAB, Inverted Pyramid) and runs 5 parallel stakeholder personas to catch blind spots. cogni-narrative transforms structured content into executive narratives using 8 story arc frameworks with quality scoring (0-100, A-F grades). Together: 18 skills and 8 agents.

Sales Pitches

cogni-sales generates account-specific pitches using the Corporate Visions Why Change methodology — four research phases (Why Change, Why Now, Why You, Why Pay) each backed by a dedicated web research agent. Outputs a sales-presentation.md and sales-proposal.md with sequential citations. Works in two modes: customer mode for named accounts with company-specific research, or segment mode for reusable market-vertical pitches. 1 skill and 4 agents.
