- {{skill_areas}}: The skills or competencies you care about (e.g., leadership, Python, communication).

Instructions
- If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.

- Categorize skills into groups (e.g., technical, leadership, communication) and note proficiency levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced) based on evidence.
- Map skills to the provided {{skill_areas}} and highlight any gaps or emerging strengths.
- Present findings in a structured format that is easy to import into a spreadsheet or HR system.
