capacity-planning-skill

Catalog all demand sources — committed projects, pipeline, BAU, and unplanned work — then estimate effort per source, weight pipeline items by conversion probability, and map timing across periods. The skill uses three-point estimation for uncertain items to produce a weighted forecast.

Divide allocated hours by available hours (total working hours minus absences, holidays, and overhead) and multiply by 100. The skill classifies the result against your organization's target band as under-utilized, on-target, or over-utilized.

It pulls allocations from project tools like Jira, Asana, or Monday via MCP, headcount from HRIS systems like Personio or Workday, historical data from companyRAG collections, or uploaded CSV/XLSX files. You can also provide figures directly in chat.

Yes. Provide the numbers directly in chat or upload utilization spreadsheets and headcount lists as CSV or XLSX files. The skill works identically with manually supplied data and never fabricates missing figures.

The skill classifies the shortfall as moderate or critical based on your defined threshold, then recommends countermeasures in priority order: reprioritize demand, redeploy across teams, improve efficiency, temporary augmentation, permanent hiring, or deferring scope.

No. It never assumes a default utilization band or staffing benchmark. You must define your target range, critical shortfall threshold, and unplanned-work buffer, and all numbers must come from your organization's data.
