Align expectations of different stakeholders through structured matrices and communication plans to ensure the product receives all-around support.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 3 edited versions we read keep these.
3
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 20
High Power / Low Interest: Keep satisfied, they are potential obstacles if unhappy.
- Distinctive: line 21
Low Power / High Interest: Keep informed, they are often the best testers and advocates.
- Distinctive: line 26
No Surprises: If a stakeholder hears about a major negative change for the first time in a review meeting, your communication has failed.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 3 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Stakeholder Management: Stakeholder Alignment Guide
The Product Manager is the balancer of interests.
Checklist
- Identify Stakeholders (Mapping) — R&D, Sales, Marketing, Senior Management, Customers.
- Apply Power/Interest Grid — Identify who needs to be managed closely versus who just needs to be kept informed.
- Develop Communication Strategy — Adopt different communication frequencies and granularities for different roles.
- Get Early Buy-in — Conduct one-on-one "socializing" before formal meetings.
Core Framework: Power/Interest Grid
- High Power / High Interest: Key players, must be deeply involved throughout the process.
- High Power / Low Interest: Keep satisfied, they are potential obstacles if unhappy.
- Low Power / High Interest: Keep informed, they are often the best testers and advocates.
- Low Power / Low Interest: Monitor only, avoid wasting excessive energy on them.
Expert Principles
- No Surprises: If a stakeholder hears about a major negative change for the first time in a review meeting, your communication has failed.
- Interest Exchange: Understand the other party's KPIs. They will only support you if you help them achieve their goals.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
