capacity-plan

capacity-plan is a skill for Claude Code from sun2443/designer-skills. It costs 52 tokens per session (835 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of capacity-plan, Apache-2.0.

A capacity-planning helper that compares a team's available people, skills, time, and budget with its current and upcoming work. Capacity means how much work the team can realistically take on.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for quarterly planning, workload analysis, utilization checks, hiring decisions, and testing whether upcoming projects fit the team and its constraints.
Why use it?
It helps show when a team is overallocated and makes the trade-offs visible before plans are committed. It can support decisions about hiring, delaying work, or changing assignments.

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

capacity-plan 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.

Usage

/capacity-plan $ARGUMENTS

What I Need From You

  • Team size and roles: Who do you have?
  • Current workload: What are they working on? (Upload from project tracker or describe)
  • Upcoming work: What's coming next quarter?
  • Constraints: Budget, hiring timeline, skill requirements

Planning Dimensions

People

  • Available headcount and skills
  • Current allocation and utilization
  • Planned hires and timeline
  • Contractor and vendor capacity

Budget

  • Operating budget by category
  • Project-specific budgets
  • Variance tracking
  • Forecast vs. actual

Time

  • Project timelines and dependencies
  • Critical path analysis
  • Buffer and contingency planning
  • Deadline management

Utilization Targets

Role Type Target Utilization Notes
IC / Specialist 75-80% Leave room for reactive work and growth
Manager 60-70% Management overhead, meetings, 1:1s
On-call / Support 50-60% Interrupt-driven work is unpredictable

Common Pitfalls

  • Planning to 100% utilization (no buffer for surprises)
  • Ignoring meeting load and context-switching costs
  • Not accounting for vacation, holidays, and sick time
  • Treating all hours as equal (creative work ≠ admin work)
