What problem does it solve? Preparing for a decision or change requires knowing who is relevant, what they can decide, what they care about, and what is still unknown. This Skill produces an evidence-aware stakeholder map that keeps formal authority, informal influence, observed positions, and assistant inferences strictly separate, so uncertainty is never presented as fact. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Stakeholder register with provenance: Creates stable stakeholder and role-entry IDs with evidence locators, confidence levels, and validation states for every person or group in scope. - Separate authority and influence views: Maps formal decision rights apart from behaviorally evidenced informal influence, never combining them into a score or ranking. - Inference and validation plan: Pairs every assistant inference with a concrete validation question and action, and converts coverage gaps into safe evidence requests. - Use Case: Before proposing a platform migration, map the sponsor, impacted operators, and approvers for the decision, identify whose positions are observed versus inferred, and produce a transparent proposed engagement sequence with all actions marked not run. ## Quick Start Use the sd-stakeholder-map skill to map the stakeholders for the decision to migrate our billing system, based on the attached org chart and meeting notes.
