Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Value Stream Mapping Create Lean value stream maps to visualize flow, identify waste, and design improvement opportunities. Based on Lean manufacturing principles adapted for knowledge work. ## What is a Value Stream? A **value stream** is the sequence of activities required to deliver value to a customer, from request to delivery. Value stream mapping (VSM) visualizes this flow to identify: - **Value-adding activities** - Steps that directly create customer value - **Waste (Muda)** - Steps that consume resources without adding value - **Flow problems** - Bottlenecks, delays, and inefficiencies ## The 8 Wastes (TIMWOODS) | Waste | Description | Examples in Knowledge Work | |-------|-------------|---------------------------| | **T**ransportation | Moving work between locations | Handoffs between teams, tool switching | | **I**nventory | Unfinished work waiting | Backlog, WIP, queued requests | | **M**otion | Unnecessary movement | Context switching, searching for info | | **W**aiting | Idle time | Approvals, blocked work, dependencies | | **O**verproduction | Making more than needed | Unused features, premature optimization | | **O**verprocessing | Doing more than required | Gold

What does the value-stream-mapping skill do?
Lean value stream mapping for identifying waste and optimization opportunities. Creates current/future state maps with cycle time analysis and improvement recommendations.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill value-stream-mapping-prorise-cool-claude-code-multi-ag-2 --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 majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 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.
