Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
## 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. This is not internal analysis—it's outward-facing assessment of the big-picture forces shaping your product's environment. ## Key Concepts ### The PESTEL Framework Originating from Francis Joseph Aguilar's 1967 PEST analysis, PESTEL extends the framework to six categories: 1. **Political:** Government policies, stability, trade regulations, taxation 2. **Economic:** Growth rates, inflation, exchange rates, consumer spending 3. **Social:** Demographics, cultural trends, lifestyle changes, consumer attitudes 4. **Technological:** Advancements, R&D, automation, digital transformation 5. **Environmental:** Climate change, sustainability, resource scarcity, regulations 6. **Legal:** Compliance, IP rights, employment laws, health/safety regulations ### Why This Works - **Comprehensive:** Cov

Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill pestel-analysis --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
