# Knowledge Structuring

Use this skill when the problem is not missing information but bad shape.

## When to use

Use `knowledge-structuring` for:
- messy notes
- mixed research findings
- project handoffs
- outlines, matrices, and taxonomies

## Workflow

1. Identify the target shape: outline, framework, matrix, checklist, or handoff.
2. Group related ideas before naming the buckets.
3. Keep the top level small and stable.
4. Push detail down, not sideways.
5. End with the clean structured artifact only.

## Examples

Good outputs:
- decision matrix
- project brief
- source map
- argument tree

## Gotchas

- Do not preserve the chaos just because it existed in the input.
- Do not invent categories that sound smart but don’t help action.
- Keep the structure stable enough that another agent can reuse it.
