description	Project-only Telos context mapping for goals, constraints, stakeholders, decisions, dependencies, risks, and narrative reports. Use when analyzing a project, building a project context pack, mapping dependencies, writing an executive project brief, or creating a non-personal project dashboard/report.

Project Telos

Use this skill to build a portable, non-personal operating map for a project or organization.

This public variant intentionally excludes personal life, career, belief, and private-user memory workflows. Work only from user-provided files, repositories, notes, or public sources.

Boundaries

• Do not read private personal context directories unless the user explicitly provides them for this task.
• Do not store personal beliefs, goals, credentials, or private life context.
• Do not include secrets in generated reports.
• Treat project context as shareable by default unless the user says otherwise.

Core Model

Capture the project as:

• Purpose: mission, goals, success criteria, and non-goals.
• Actors: users, teams, stakeholders, owners, dependencies.
• Assets: repositories, docs, dashboards, datasets, services, APIs.
• Decisions: architectural choices, product calls, open questions.
• Constraints: deadlines, budgets, compliance, technical limits.
• Risks: blockers, unknowns, fragility, coordination hazards.
• Trajectory: current state, next milestones, and likely future forks.

Workflow

1. Define the project boundary and intended audience.
2. Inventory available evidence: docs, code, issues, PRs, diagrams, notes, and source links.
3. Extract entities, decisions, dependencies, risks, and unresolved questions.
4. Identify contradictions, stale assumptions, and missing owners.
5. Produce a project context pack or executive brief.
6. Recommend concrete follow-up tasks, owners, and validation checks.

Output Patterns

For a compact context pack:

• Project Thesis
• Current State
• Dependency Map
• Decision Log
• Risks / Unknowns
• Next Actions

For an executive report:

• Executive Summary
• Strategic Context
• Operating Model
• Progress and Blockers
• Recommendations
• Appendix: Evidence Reviewed
