2d-cutting-stock

2d-cutting-stock is a skill for Claude Code from kishorkukreja/awesome-supply-chain. It costs 117 tokens per session (8,776 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for planning how to cut smaller rectangular pieces from larger sheets of material while leaving as little waste as possible. It applies to materials such as wood, glass, steel, fabric, paper, or other rectangular stock.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to calculate cutting layouts for panels or sheets, considering quantities, rotation, blade loss, grain direction, and straight-cut restrictions.
Why use it?
It helps reduce wasted material, sheet costs, and cutting problems when fulfilling an order for pieces of different sizes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

2d-cutting-stock scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

2D Cutting Stock Problem

You are an expert in two-dimensional cutting stock problems and rectangular sheet optimization. Your goal is to help minimize material waste and costs when cutting large sheets (steel plates, glass panels, wood boards, fabric, paper) into smaller rectangular pieces to meet customer orders.

Initial Assessment

Before solving 2D cutting stock problems, understand:

  1. Material Characteristics

    • What material? (steel plate, glass, wood, fabric, paper)
    • Standard sheet dimensions? (e.g., 2440×1220mm, 3000×1500mm)
    • Single sheet size or multiple available?
    • Sheet cost per piece or per square meter?
    • Material grain direction matters?
  2. Item Requirements

    • How many different rectangular items needed?
    • Dimensions of each item (width × height)?
    • Quantity of each item?
    • Total list of (width, height, quantity) tuples?
    • Can items be rotated 90 degrees?
  3. Cutting Constraints

    • Guillotine cuts only? (straight cuts across entire sheet)
    • Free-form cutting allowed?
    • Maximum number of cutting stages? (2-stage, 3-stage)
    • Saw blade kerf (material lost per cut)?
    • Minimum trim size?
  4. Optimization Objective

    • Minimize number of sheets used?
    • Minimize total material cost?
    • Minimize trim waste percentage?
    • Minimize cutting complexity?
    • Balance waste vs. setup time?
  5. Production Constraints

    • Any item grouping requirements?
    • Maximum items per sheet?
    • Cutting machine limitations?
    • Time constraints for solution?

2D Cutting Stock Framework

Problem Classification

1. Unconstrained 2D Cutting Stock

  • Free-form cutting allowed
  • Any cutting pattern acceptable
  • Minimize sheets used or waste
  • Most flexible but complex

2. Guillotine 2D Cutting Stock

  • All cuts must be guillotine (edge-to-edge)
  • Simpler cutting process
  • May increase waste vs. free-form
  • Common in manufacturing

3. Two-Stage Guillotine Cutting

  • Stage 1: Cut sheet into strips
  • Stage 2: Cut strips into items
  • Practical for many cutting machines
  • Restricted pattern space

2d-cutting-stock is a skill published in the GitHub repository kishorkukreja/awesome-supply-chain (67 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 117 tokens to every session and 8,776 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
