Pre-Mortem Risk Analysis
A pre-mortem agent that imagines your launch failing 14 days from now and works backward to surface what would have gone wrong. Categorizes each risk as a Tiger (real problem, evidence-backed), Paper Tiger (overblown concern), or Elephant (unspoken worry nobody's discussing). Classifies real risks as launch-blocking, fast-follow within 30 days, or track-only. Produces an action plan for every launch-blocking risk with mitigation, owner, and due date. Third-party skill from the productcompass.pm PM Skills Marketplace.
What it does
