Analyze gaps by comparing a defined current state with a justified target state, characterizing causes and uncertainty, prioritizing actionable interventions, and producing traceable matrices, roadmaps, and decision records. Use for capability, process, compliance, readiness, maturity, operating-model, or research-evidence gaps. Do not use for a vague list of problems, a standalone root-cause analysis, a generic SWOT, or legal or audit certification advice without a governing standard and…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Gap Analysis

## Overview

A gap analysis is a decision method, not a scorecard: define a bounded question, establish an observable current state, justify a desired state, compare them, explain why the difference exists, and decide what to do. A credible result makes evidence, assumptions, uncertainty, ownership, and trade-offs visible.

## When to use

Load this skill when the work compares current and desired performance, capability, controls, process behavior, readiness, maturity, operating model, or research evidence and must produce an actionable artifact. Choose the variant from `references/variants.md`.

### When not to use

Do not use this as a substitute for root-cause analysis, a risk assessment, SWOT, benchmarking, a requirements specification, a regulatory/legal opinion, or an audit/certification conclusion. Route technical capacity questions to `capacity-and-cost-engineering`, governance questions to `ai-governance`, and causal diagnosis to `systematic-debugging` or the relevant domain owner. A gap analysis may expose a need for those disciplines; it does not replace them.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add magnus919/agent-skills/gap-analysis@sha256:8f46f97ca87e4e28

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260907.def688d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
