Development Estimation Skill

Systematic estimation with confidence intervals and risk assessment.

Quick Start

# Time estimate with breakdown
/sc:estimate "auth system" --type time --unit days --breakdown

# Complexity assessment
/sc:estimate "microservices migration" --type complexity

# Effort analysis
/sc:estimate "performance optimization" --type effort --unit hours

Behavioral Flow

  1. Analyze - Examine scope, complexity, and dependencies
  2. Calculate - Apply estimation methodology with benchmarks
  3. Validate - Cross-reference with domain expertise
  4. Present - Provide breakdown with confidence intervals
  5. Track - Document for accuracy improvement

Flags

Flag Type Default Description
--type string time time, effort, complexity
--unit string days hours, days, weeks
--breakdown bool false Show detailed breakdown

Personas Activated

  • architect - Design complexity assessment
  • performance - Optimization effort analysis
  • project-manager - Timeline and resource planning

MCP Integration

  • PAL MCP - Multi-perspective estimate validation

Evidence Requirements

This skill does NOT require hard evidence. Deliverables are:

  • Estimates with confidence intervals
  • Risk factor identification
  • Breakdown documentation

Estimation Types

Time (--type time)

  • Calendar duration estimates
  • Milestone planning
  • Deadline assessment

Effort (--type effort)

  • Person-hours/days required
  • Resource allocation guidance
  • Team capacity planning

Complexity (--type complexity)

  • Technical complexity scoring
  • Risk factor identification
  • Dependency mapping

Confidence Levels

Estimates include confidence intervals:

  • High (85-95%) - Well-understood scope
  • Medium (70-84%) - Some unknowns
  • Low (50-69%) - Significant uncertainty

Examples

Feature Estimation

/sc:estimate "user authentication" --type time --unit days --breakdown
# Breakdown: DB design (2d) + API (3d) + UI (2d) + Tests (1d)
# Total: 8 days @ 85% confidence

Complexity Assessment

/sc:estimate "monolith to microservices" --type complexity --breakdown
# Architecture complexity with risk factors
# Dependency mapping and migration phases

Effort Analysis

/sc:estimate "API performance optimization" --type effort --unit hours
# Profiling (4h) + Analysis (6h) + Implementation (16h) + Testing (8h)
# Total: 34 hours @ 75% confidence

Tool Coordination

  • Read/Grep/Glob - Codebase complexity analysis
  • TodoWrite - Estimation breakdown tracking
  • Task - Multi-domain estimation delegation
  • Bash - Dependency and project analysis
