Map every stakeholder before engaging anyone. Use when launching an initiative, scoping discovery, or building an engagement plan from scratch.

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

# Stakeholder Identification

## Purpose

Map every stakeholder before engaging anyone. This skill produces a comprehensive, equity-aware stakeholder set — not just the obvious sponsors and users, but the gatekeepers, the impacted communities, and the voices your team defaults to overlooking.

Most PM stakeholder lists are written from memory in five minutes. They reliably capture executives, product peers, and the most vocal users. They reliably miss the marginalized user groups who bear the product's consequences without having the organizational power to shape its decisions. This skill forces a slower, more structured brainstorm that builds the foundation for every engagement decision that follows.

Use this before stakeholder-mapping (which prioritizes) and before stakeholder-engagement-advisor (which plans per-stakeholder outreach). Identification comes first — you cannot prioritize people you haven't named.

## Input

**Works best with:** The initiative, product, or decision you're mapping stakeholders for.
**Also useful:** Stakeholders already on your list (the skill's job is to find who's missing), org context, and affected communities.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add deanpeters/product-manager-skills/stakeholder-identification@sha256:ff19d748bce63bfa

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.b68bf96, 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.
