Analyze political, economic, social, technological, environmental, and legal forces. Use when external market shifts could materially affect a product, roadmap, or strategy.
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
## Purpose Conduct a systematic analysis of macro-environmental factors—Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, and Legal—that could impact your product or project. Use this to identify external opportunities and threats, inform strategic planning, assess market entry risks, and make data-driven decisions about product direction in the context of broader forces beyond your control.

How to install
mdr add deanpeters/product-manager-skills/pestel-analysis@sha256:78b9aea0238e7ef4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.b68bf96, 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.
