What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps teams determine where a work item or artifact is in the AI-SDLC lifecycle and identify the correct next step without manually tracing documentation, dependencies, and ownership.

- Artifact Graph Analysis: Identifies available and missing lifecycle artifacts such as stories, specifications, ADRs, tests, and documentation.
- Workflow Guidance: Recommends the appropriate next phase step and owning persona while keeping navigation read-only.
- Use Case: A product team can provide a story key like MN-42 to understand its current development stage, missing prerequisites, and the recommended next workflow action.
