> The first act draws the organisation's knowledge as a graph. Pick a real question, trace down what knowledge answering it depends on, and name who holds each piece. It maps the human network the organisation actually runs on - who you go to - while the question of whether any of it is *written down* is held back for the next act. Connections first; storage and state come later. ^purpose 1. We pick a concrete prompt and mark who raises it - a person or an [[AI agent|agent]] 2. We trace its dependency cone downward - the knowledge it needs, and what that needs - as a DAG 3. We name the holder of each piece: the real who-you-ask network, not the org chart 4. We re-walk the cone as an agent - which needs every piece written and reachable, where a person just asks a colleague; the gap between the two is the problem the whole workshop exists to close ^plan The act draws on knowledge-audit practice and organisational network analysis. Two distinctions set it apart: AI agents are treated as first-class knowledge consumers alongside people, and the orientation is investigative - toward what a question actually depends on, not a catalogue of what exists. Everything is laid down uncoloured: this act records structure, the next act judges state. **You leave with:** - A traced knowledge graph for at least one real prompt - the question, its dependency cone, and the people each piece rests on - The bus factors made visible - a piece many prompts depend on, held by one person - The human-vs-agent gap named - what the organisation navigates by asking people, an agent (or a newcomer after a reorg) cannot ^outcomes ## Examples traced here 1.
