If it's a third party plugin, contact the author or source.  This 
mailing list sees very little traffic about ArcGIS usage as it is a 
highly specialised commercial product.

Is it documented that the file you've attempted to run via PyCharm 
actually supports being run from outside ArcGIS?  Most plugins don't 
seem to be...  This failure is because PyCharm isn't starting the script 
with the necessary environment (including the arcpy ArcGIS Python 
module) accessible.

The fact that it starts running from within ArcGIS and produces some 
status messages before bailing out with the failure message strongly 
suggests to me that the plugin is working properly but the input given 
is not sufficient to produce the expected output.  In the absence of 
sufficient documentation for you to figure out the required input, my 
advice above stands: contact the author or the download source.

If you or your organisation has a current ArcGIS maintenance agreement, 
you might also be able to access the community forums that ESRI run to 
ask for more info about this plugin.
