Resource Planning

Help plan and optimize resource allocation across projects and teams.

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)

Output

Produce allocation plans, utilization dashboards, scenario analyses (what if we hire / don't hire / deprioritize), and staffing recommendations.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take w95/resource-planning from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
