M&A strategy for acquiring companies or being acquired. Use when evaluating acquisitions, preparing to be acquired, conducting due diligence, planning integration, or negotiating deal terms (valuation, LOI, earnout, deal structure).
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
# M&A Playbook Frameworks for both sides of M&A: acquiring companies and being acquired. Every M&A decision starts with strategic rationale -- without it, you are buying problems. ## Keywords M&A, mergers and acquisitions, due diligence, acquisition, acqui-hire, integration, deal structure, valuation, LOI, term sheet, earnout, data room, strategic rationale, post-merger integration, buyer, seller, exit --- ## Clarify First Before generating, settle the inputs below.

How to install
mdr add borghei/claude-skills/ma-playbook@sha256:b63b9115f36ebcacThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
