Map what you don't know about a subject — including the gaps you can't see — so your learning targets the holes instead of re-covering what you already know. Use when asked what don't I know about X, find my knowledge gaps, what should I learn next in, or map my understanding of. Produces a picture of the subject's territory, what you already know vs the gaps, the dangerous unknown-unknowns (things you don't know you're missing), which gaps matter most for your goal, and a prioritized learn-next list — so effort goes where it counts.

# Knowledge-Gap Map

The hardest part of learning is that you can't see your own gaps — especially the unknown-unknowns, the things you don't even know you're missing. So people re-study what they already know (comfortable) and skip the holes (invisible). This maps the territory of a subject against what you know, surfaces the gaps you can't see, and tells you which ones actually matter for your goal — so your learning aims at the holes.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The territory** — the map of what the subject actually covers (the whole landscape, so gaps become visible)
- **Know vs. don't-know** — a split of what you've got vs. where the holes are, based on your self-assessment and probing
- **The unknown-unknowns** — the important things you didn't know you were missing (the dangerous, invisible gaps)
- **Gap priority** — which gaps matter most for *your* goal (not all gaps are worth filling)
- **A learn-next list** — the prioritized holes to target, in order
