Use when you need to explain how parts of a system, feature, concept, page, workflow, or problem connect; identify the single most important part of something; untangle dense dependencies into a core plus typed relations; or answer 'what is the load-bearing part?' without drifting into implementation or task prioritization. Provides a five-step workflow — classify the unit of analysis, find the single primary part using removal/governance/purpose/weight/decision tests, map secondary parts via typed relations (dependency, input/output, parent/child, owner/owned, cause/effect, constraint/enabler, and others), produce a structured output, and reduce the whole to one final sentence — that forces explanation through one-primary reduction rather than flat lists or chronology. Do NOT use for implementation work (use the relevant domain skill), choosing what to do next (use a prioritization skill), or formal architectural-ownership design (use a domain-modeling skill).
