Consulting Agent Skills for Framing

Consulting skills are for the temporary team on someone else's problem: frame the question the client is actually paying to have answered, diagnose what is true with enough evidence to survive a partner review, recommend a choice rather than a 90-page description of the status quo, implement if that was in the SOW, work the stakeholders because the politics are part of the work, and transfer so they can run it after you leave. That is the point. Use the ranked list by scanning for the sub-topic you are stuck on right now, opening the skill that matches, and reading its SKILL.md before you load it. Pick one, run it against your actual engagement, and keep it only if it moves you toward a recommendation the client can act on.

Recommend
A choice, not a 90-page description of the status quo.

Transfer
They can run it after you leave. That is the point.
Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

How is this list ordered?
It is ranked by observed search demand, with direct matches to the Consulting topic first and a cap on any single publisher so one author cannot fill the page.
What is the difference between a Diagnose skill and a Recommend skill?
Diagnose skills help you establish what is true with enough evidence to survive a partner review. Recommend skills help you land on a choice instead of a 90-page description of the status quo.
Do these skills cover the politics of an engagement?
Yes. Stakeholders is a sub-topic here because the politics are part of the work, not a distraction from it.
Should I pick a skill for implementation or transfer?
Only if implementation was in the SOW. Transfer is always in scope, because the client being able to run it after you leave is the point.
