What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams calibrate task complexity and delegation decisions using token budgets, turn counts, and risk considerations instead of wall-clock time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-factor difficulty model that weighs atomic steps, batchable operations, token estimates, and verification cost.
  • Delegation decision framework that determines when to execute tasks in the main thread or outsource to subagents.
  • Guidance for planning AI-driven workflows, enabling better scoping, estimation, and risk mitigation across projects.

Quick Start

Run the multi-factor difficulty model on the task and determine whether to handle it directly or delegate to a subagent.
