buffer-sizing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine. It costs 17 tokens per session (230 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project-planning method for setting time and resource reserves around the work that controls the schedule.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to calculate project, feeding, and resource buffers in critical-chain plans.
Why use it?
It accounts for delays and limited resources so the plan has room to absorb disruption.

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

buffer-sizing 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

SOP: Buffer Sizing

Calculate appropriate project buffer, feeding buffers, and resource buffers for the critical chain using Goldratt's method.

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent skill.

Shared: This SOP is used by resource-constraint and implementation-planning campaigns.

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

SOP When to use
spawn-agent Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
