SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires cli-owm, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps strategists understand the maturity of components within a system, enabling better strategic decision-making by visualizing their evolutionary journey.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Evolutionary Assessment: Assigns each component a stage (Genesis, Custom, Product, Commodity) based on defined characteristics.
  • OWM Map Generation: Creates a Wardley Map in OWM format, plotting components on visibility and evolution axes.
  • Use Case: After defining the supply chain for a new digital service, use this Skill to assess how mature each underlying capability is (e.g., is the authentication service a commodity or a custom-built solution?) and visualize this on a map.

Quick Start

Use the wm-evolve skill to assess the evolution of components from the supply-chain.agreed.md file and generate the map.owm file.

Frequently Asked Questions about wm-evolve

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I position supply chain components on a Wardley Map evolution axis?▼

A Wardley Map visualizes a supply chain by plotting components on two axes: visibility and evolution. This Skill assesses component maturity using ubiquity, certainty, and market characteristics, plotting them from Genesis to Commodity to produce an OWM format map for strategic decision-making.

How do I assess the evolutionary maturity of components in a digital service?▼

Assess component maturity by evaluating each capability against Wardley's characteristics to determine its stage: Genesis, Custom, Product, or Commodity. This Skill processes an agreed supply chain file to visualize whether underlying capabilities like authentication are custom-built or commodity services.

Do I need Node.js to generate OWM format Wardley Maps?▼

Yes, you need Node.js installed to generate OWM format Wardley Maps. This Skill requires npx to run the cli-owm dependency for rendering the final map. The assessment processes your supply chain file and outputs a map.owm file plotting components on both axes.

What is the best way to create an OWM map from a supply chain definition?▼

The best way to create an OWM map from a supply chain definition is to assess each component's evolutionary stage using Wardley's characteristics. This Skill reads the supply-chain.agreed.md file, evaluates maturity based on ubiquity and certainty, and outputs a grounded map.owm file.

When should I use Wardley mapping for component maturity assessment?▼

Use Wardley mapping for component maturity assessment when you need to understand the evolutionary stage of supply chain capabilities for strategic decision-making. It is ideal after defining a supply chain for a new digital service to visualize if underlying capabilities are custom-built or commodity solutions.
