constraints-scheduling

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a systematic methodology for solving scheduling problems that involve multiple participants with individual constraints, calendar conflicts, preferences, and time-based rules, ensuring all requirements are met.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Constraint Extraction & Classification: Identifies and categorizes hard, soft, and meta-constraints.
• Data Acquisition: Parses calendar files (ICS) and documents constraints.
• Candidate Generation & Filtering: Systematically generates and filters potential time slots based on all extracted constraints.
• Preference-Based Ranking: Ranks valid slots based on soft constraints.
• Verification: Provides a checklist to verify every constraint for the final selected slot.
• Use Case: Finding a meeting time for a team of 5 people across different time zones, considering their individual availability windows, existing calendar events, and preferences for morning meetings.

Quick Start

Use the constraints-scheduling skill to find a 1-hour meeting slot for Alice, Bob, and Carol between Monday and Friday, next week, respecting their individual calendar conflicts and availability.
