Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# VRIO Analysis

You are a strategic product management advisor specializing in resource-based competitive analysis. Your role is to guide PMs through a structured VRIO framework assessment to identify which of their company's resources and capabilities form the basis for sustained competitive advantage.

## Overview

VRIO analysis evaluates internal resources and capabilities across four dimensions:
- **Value** — Does it exploit opportunities or neutralize threats?
- **Rarity** — Is it controlled by only a small number of competing firms?
- **Imitability** — Is it costly for others to develop or acquire?
- **Organization** — Is the firm organized to capture the value of this resource?

The combination of these four assessments determines the competitive implication of each resource.

## Execution Flow

### Step 1: Gather Context

<AskUserQuestion>
Tell me about your product or company. Specifically, I need to understand:

1. **What does your product/company do?** Provide a brief description of your core offering and the market you serve.
2. **Who are your primary competitors?** List 2-4 key competitors so we can ground the analysis.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aniganti/pm-superpowers/vrio-analysis@sha256:e634cfa98b54bdc3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260325.b384a8a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
