Turn a topic, brainstorm, or document into a structured mind map. Use when asked to brainstorm around a theme, organize ideas, break a topic into branches, or summarize something as a mind map.

# Mind Map Skill A mind map turns a fuzzy topic into a branching structure you can see — central idea in the middle, themes radiating out, details hanging off each. This skill takes a topic, a brain-dump, or a document and organizes it into a clean **Mermaid mindmap** with sensible, balanced branches. ## Required Inputs Ask for these only if they aren't already provided: - **The central topic** — the thing the map is about. - **The raw material** — ideas, notes, or a document to organize (or "generate the branches" if it's a fresh brainstorm). - **Depth / breadth** — roughly how many main branches, how deep to go. - **Purpose** — exploring options, summarizing, planning — so the branching matches the use. ## Output Format ### [Topic] — mind map One line on how you structured it (the organizing principle for the main branches). ```mermaid mindmap root((Central topic)) Theme A Idea A1 Idea A2 Theme B Idea B1 Idea B2 Theme C Idea C1 ``` **Structure note** — why these main branches, and anything that didn't fit (parked items). ## Mermaid Rules (so it renders) - Start with `mindmap`. The center is `root((Text))`. - Hierarchy is expressed purely by **indentation** — each deeper level is

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill mind-map --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
