Use when a problem under exploration needs its surrounding system context identified before design begins — Existing systems, Integrations, Ownership, and External dependencies. This should trigger when an issue's Context Mapping point of view needs evaluation, or when a maintainer directly asks to map the systems, integrations, owners, and external dependencies relevant to a problem.

# Context Mapping Guide identification of Existing systems, Integrations, Ownership, and External dependencies relevant to a problem under exploration. **This is an interactive SKILL**. **What is covered in this Skill?** - Identifying existing systems that already touch the problem area - Mapping integrations and data flows between those systems - Naming ownership: who operates, maintains, or is accountable for each system or integration - Identifying external dependencies (third-party services, other teams, contracts) outside the team's direct control - Feeding context-mapping findings into `025-quality-attribute-discovery` and the remaining Functional Specification lenses ## Constraints Map the surrounding context before any design decision assumes a system boundary. When this technique is orchestrated by another workflow, the orchestrator owns clarifying-question sequencing; when applied standalone, ask directly. - **MUST** read `references/024-context-mapping.md` before applying Context Mapping guidance - **MUST** identify existing systems that already touch the problem area, not only the system expected to change - **MUST** identify integrations and data flows between the identified systems - **MUST** name an owner (team or role) for each identified system or integration when known - **MUST** identify external dependencies outside the team's direct control, such as third-party services, other teams, or contracts - **MUST NOT** invent a system, integration, owner, o...
