Q: What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Role Archetype Mapping skill fit in?

Name the target role archetype precisely — what each archetype actually does day-to-day, what credentials it requires, what tradeoffs it imposes, and where each archetype sits in the broader career landscape. Reference when choosing among targets (operator vs investor vs founder vs advisor vs board), preparing materials for a specific archetype, or sanity-checking that the archetype matches the user's actual goals. The mapping is the first move in trajectory design.

From the source SKILL.md

The most-common trajectory mistake is targeting an archetype based on its title, not its day-to-day work. The senior MD who pivots to "VC" because it sounded interesting, then discovers two years in that the work is actually 70% reading decks and writing memos and is unhappy. The right move is to know the archetype menu — what each role actually does, what credentials open it, what tradeoffs it imposes — and choose deliberately. This skill is the menu.
