Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts --skill process-mapping- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads process-mapping automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Process Mapping
Table of Contents
Overview
Process mapping creates visual representations of workflows, helping teams understand current operations, identify bottlenecks, and design improvements.
When to Use
- Documenting existing workflows
- Identifying process improvements
- Onboarding new team members
- Discovering inefficiencies and bottlenecks
- Planning system implementations
- Analyzing customer journeys
- Automating manual processes
- Training and documentation
Quick Start
Minimal working example:
Mapping Approaches:
Current State (AS-IS):
Purpose: Understand existing process
Participants: People doing the work
Timeline: 2-4 hours
Output: Current workflow diagram
Benefits: Identifies real bottlenecks
Future State (TO-BE):
Purpose: Design improved process
Participants: Cross-functional team
Timeline: 4-8 hours
Output: Improved workflow design
Benefits: Clear vision for change
Value Stream Mapping:
Purpose: Focus on value-added vs waste
Participants: Process owners, operations
Timeline: Full day
Output: Detailed flow with timing
Benefits: Identifies waste and delays
Swimlane Diagram:
Purpose: Show roles and responsibilities

Best Practices
✅ DO
- Map current state first before designing changes
- Include all stakeholders in mapping sessions
- Document actual processes, not theoretical ones
- Identify waste and bottlenecks
- Design future state with team input
- Include decision points and exceptions
- Add timing and resource information
- Keep processes simple and visual
- Update maps when processes change
- Use mapping to drive continuous improvement
❌ DON'T
- Skip documenting current state
- Design future state without understanding current
- Over-complicate process diagrams
- Forget about edge cases and exceptions
- Ignore process performance metrics
- Create maps that nobody can understand
- Design improvements without involving people doing work
- Implement changes without validating process
- Leave outdated maps in documentation
- Ignore customer perspective
FAQ
What does the process-mapping skill do?
Visualize and document current and future business processes. Identify inefficiencies, dependencies, and improvement opportunities through detailed process mapping and analysis.
How do I install process-mapping?
Run npx skills add https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts --skill process-mapping in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/process-mapping/ (personal) or .claude/skills/process-mapping/ (project).
Which AI agents can use process-mapping?
Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.
Is process-mapping safe to install?
No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.
Who maintains process-mapping?
It is published by aj-geddes in aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts. It has 553 recorded installs.

Popular ai & agents skills
google-agents-cli-publish
google/agents-cli
This skill should be used when the user wants to "publish an agent", "publish my ADK agent", "register an agent with Gemini", "publish to Gemini" (formerly Gemini Enterprise), or needs guidance on the agents-cli publish gemini command. Also use when the user wants to "manage agents in Agent Registry", "list/update/delete registered agents", or "register an MCP server". Covers ADK vs A2A registration modes, programmatic and interactive usage, flag reference, auto-detection from deployment metadata, Agent Registry fleet management, and troubleshooting. Part of the agents-cli skills suite. Do NOT use for deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).
google-agents-cli-eval
google/agents-cli
This skill should be used when the user wants to "run an evaluation", "evaluate my agent", "evaluate my ADK agent", "write an eval dataset", "analyze eval failures", "compare eval results", "optimize agent", or needs guidance on the Gemini platform eval methodology and the Quality Flywheel. Covers eval metrics, dataset schema, LLM-as-judge scoring, and common failure causes. Applies to any agents-cli project, whatever framework the agent is written in. Do NOT use for agent API code patterns (ADK: use google-agents-cli-adk-code), deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy), or project scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold).
skill-creator
anthropics/skills
Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.
codex-pet
prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills
Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into ${CODEXHOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/ / and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAIAPIKEY required, only RUNCOMFYTOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.
