Mercury

Mercury

A Cowork plugin for Claude that prepares IDX consultants for client engagements — from initial research through to structured stakeholder meetings.

What it does

Mercury runs a four-stage pipeline that produces evidence-backed markdown reports, with optional export to Word and PowerPoint:

1. Brief — company research and consultant briefing
2. Compete — competitive landscape analysis
3. Sitemap — sitemap recommendation based on the IDX Corporate Website Playbook
4. Meeting — structured meeting pack with talking points

Each stage produces a standalone report with classified findings and a citation register. An integrated document can be generated at the end.

Commands

/mercury:compete	Run stage 2 — competitive landscape
/mercury:sitemap	Run stage 3 — sitemap recommendation
/mercury:meeting	Run stage 4 — meeting pack
/mercury:all	Run the full pipeline end-to-end
