process-mapper

process-mapper is a skill for Claude Code from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. It costs 176 tokens per session (2,147 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A business-process mapping skill that documents the steps in an operation and measures how long each stage takes. It uses BPMN-style notation, a standard way to draw processes, and separates active work from waiting time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to map processes such as procurement, onboarding, incident handoffs, expense reimbursement, customer onboarding, or claims handling, then analyze cycle times and constraints.
Why use it?
It makes undocumented work visible and helps identify the stage causing the delay. This prevents teams from optimizing parts of a process that are not the real bottleneck.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

process-mapper scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/bottleneck_detector.py, scripts/cycle_time_analyzer.py, scripts/process_documenter.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

process-mapper

BPMN-style business process documentation, bottleneck detection, and cycle-time analysis for internal-operations leaders.

Purpose

Internal-operations work suffers from three recurring failure modes:

  1. Implicit process — the steps exist only in tribal knowledge, so handoffs drop and onboarding takes weeks.
  2. Invisible waiting — most of the elapsed time on any business process is queue / wait / approval time, not actual work; teams optimize the wrong stage.
  3. Local optimization — Goldratt's Theory of Constraints is ignored; resources are added to non-constraint stages, gaining nothing.

This skill produces a documented process map, identifies where work waits, and points the constraint out by name with deterministic logic — not LLM intuition.

When to use

  • Documenting a new business process (procurement intake, vendor onboarding, employee onboarding, incident handoff, expense reimbursement, customer onboarding, claims adjudication).
  • An existing process is "too slow" but nobody can name the bottleneck.
  • Cycle time is being measured but value-add ratio is not — so the team can't tell whether the process is healthy or waste-heavy.
  • Cross-functional handoffs are dropping work and root cause is unclear.

Workflow

Five-step deterministic flow:

  1. Intake. Capture the process as a JSON file with one entry per stage: name, owner, type (value-add | wait | rework), duration_minutes_p50, duration_minutes_p90. Use assets/process_template.md and its JSON skeleton.
  2. Map stages. Run process_documenter.py to produce an ASCII swim-lane diagram + a normalized JSON artifact. The swim-lane separates lanes by owner so cross-functional handoffs become visible.
  3. Measure cycle time. Run cycle_time_analyzer.py to compute total P50, total P90, value-add ratio (VA%), and a Little's-Law throughput estimate. Verdict: VA% > 25% = HEALTHY, 10–25% = TYPICAL, < 10% = WASTE-HEAVY.
  4. Detect bottlenecks. Run bottleneck_detector.py with the appropriate --profile (saas / services / manufacturing / healthcare). Output is a ranked list with severity (CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM), root-cause hypothesis, and one recommended action per finding.
  5. Recommend. Pair the bottleneck list with the cycle-time verdict; recommend a single constraint-focused intervention per Goldratt's "subordinate everything to the constraint" rule. Don't recommend optimization of a non-constraint stage.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
