What it does
Sustainability Scoring is an agent skill from Abhinavbwj/Urban-Design-Skills-Claude. Score urban designs against LEED-ND, BREEAM Communities, WELL Community Standard, Green Star Communities, CASBEE Urban Development, and Estidama Pearl Community Rating System. Generates detailed scoring reports with credit-by-credit analysis, achievability assessment, and optimization recommendations. Use when the user asks to score a design for sustainability, assess LEED-ND credits, evaluate BREEAM compliance, check WELL community criteria, calculate a sustainability rating, or optimize a design for green…
Its SKILL.md is about 7.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/breeam-communities.md`, `references/leed-nd.md` and `references/well-community.md`).
It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Regulatory compliance. The repository describes itself as: Urban Design Skills Claude. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to score a design for sustainability
- Assess LEED-ND credits
- Evaluate BREEAM compliance
- Check WELL community criteria
Example prompts
- “/sustainability-scoring”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 666327b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
usgbc.orgbregroup.comwellcertified.comibec.or.jpdmt.gov.aev2.wellcertified.comgresb.comsdgs.un.orgc40.orgworldgbc.orgcnu.orgliving-future.org
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Sustainability Scoring loads about 7.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~31k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 138 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,197 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- Score urban designs against LEED-ND, BREEAM Communities, WELL Community Standard, Green Star Communities, CASBEE Urban Development, and Estidama Pearl Community Rating System. Generates detailed scoring reports with credit-by-credit analysis, achievability assessment, and optimization recommendations. Use when the user asks to score a design for sustainability, assess LEED-ND credits, evaluate BREEAM compliance, check WELL community criteria, calculate a sustainability rating, or optimize a design for green certification.
Sustainability Scoring Skill
This skill provides comprehensive sustainability certification scoring for urban designs and masterplans. It covers the six major neighborhood/community-scale rating systems used globally: LEED-ND (US), BREEAM Communities (UK/Europe), WELL Community Standard (global, health-focused), Green Star Communities (Australia/NZ), CASBEE Urban Development (Japan), and Estidama Pearl Community Rating System (Middle East). The skill generates credit-by-credit scoring analyses, identifies optimization opportunities, and produces professional scorecard reports.
1. Certification System Selector
Use the following decision tree to select the appropriate certification system(s) for a given project. Geography is the primary driver, but project focus and client preference may override.
Decision Tree
START
|
|--> Where is the project located?
| |
| |--> North America (US, Canada) --> LEED-ND v4.1
| | |--> Also health-focused? --> Add WELL Community Standard
| |
| |--> United Kingdom --> BREEAM Communities
| | |--> Also health-focused? --> Add WELL Community Standard
| |
| |--> Europe (non-UK) --> BREEAM Communities (or local adaptation)
| | |--> Also health-focused? --> Add WELL Community Standard
| |
| |--> Australia or New Zealand --> Green Star Communities
| | |--> Also health-focused? --> Add WELL Community Standard
| |
| |--> Japan --> CASBEE for Urban Development
| |
| |--> Middle East (esp. Abu Dhabi, UAE) --> Estidama Pearl Community
| | |--> Abu Dhabi specifically? --> Estidama Pearl is MANDATORY
| |
| |--> Other regions --> LEED-ND (most globally recognized)
| |--> Or BREEAM International New Construction (building scale)
|
|--> Does the client have a specific certification preference?
| |--> Yes --> Use client's preferred system
| |--> No --> Use geography-based recommendation above
|
|--> Does the project seek multiple certifications?
|--> Yes --> Use Cross-Certification Comparison Matrix (Section 3) to
| identify strategies that earn credits across multiple systems
|--> No --> Focus on single system for maximum point optimizationSystem Overview Comparison

Key Insight
A project pursuing both LEED-ND Gold (60 pts) and WELL Community Standard can achieve significant overlap by focusing on: walkability, mixed-use, transit, green space, stormwater, water efficiency, and community engagement. These strategies contribute to both certifications simultaneously, reducing the incremental effort and cost of dual certification.
4. Scoring Workflow
Follow this six-step process to score any urban design project against a sustainability certification system.
Step 1: Project Characterization
Gather the following information about the project:
- Location (city, state/province, country, climate zone)
- Site area (hectares)
- Gross floor area (sqm) by use (residential, commercial, institutional)
- Number of dwelling units and unit types
- Density (DU/ha and FAR)
- Transit access (type, frequency, distance to station/stop)
- Surrounding context (urban/suburban/rural, adjacent land uses)
- Client certification goals (system, target level, timeline)
Step 2: Prerequisites Check
For the selected certification system, evaluate every prerequisite requirement against the project design. Prerequisites are mandatory -- failure to meet any single prerequisite disqualifies the project from certification.
- Create a checklist of all prerequisites
- For each prerequisite: assess compliance (met / not met / needs modification)
- If any prerequisite is not met: identify what design changes are needed to achieve compliance
- Prerequisites are non-negotiable -- resolve all prerequisite issues before proceeding to credit scoring
Step 3: Credit-by-Credit Scoring
For each credit in the selected system:
- Determine if the credit is applicable to the project (some credits are site-specific or use-specific)
- Assess the project's current compliance level (points achievable under current design)
- Identify the gap between current design and maximum points
- Classify the credit achievability: Easy (high certainty, low cost), Moderate (achievable with design modifications), Difficult (requires significant investment or is context-dependent), N/A (not applicable to this project)
- Calculate a preliminary score
Step 4: Gap Analysis
Compare the preliminary score to the target certification level:
- Calculate the point gap (target score minus preliminary score)
- Identify the most cost-effective credits to close the gap (see Section 5: Optimization Strategy)
- Prioritize credits by: achievability, cost, synergy with other credits, alignment with design vision
Step 5: Optimization Recommendations
For each credit in the gap:
- Specify the design modification needed to achieve the credit
- Estimate the relative cost impact (low / moderate / high)
- Identify synergies (does this modification help achieve other credits?)
- Identify trade-offs (does this modification conflict with any design goals?)
Step 6: Final Scorecard Production
Produce the scorecard in the format specified in Section 6, with:
- Credit-by-credit breakdown with point values
- Achievability assessment (Easy / Moderate / Difficult / N/A)
- Current compliance status (Achieved / Partial / Not Achieved / N/A)
- Optimization recommendations
- Total score and projected certification level
5. Optimization Strategy
Tier 1: Low-Hanging Fruit (High Points, Low Cost)
These credits should be pursued first as they require minimal additional investment beyond good design practice.
LEED-ND Low-Hanging Fruit:
| Credit | Points | Why It Is Easy |
|---|---|---|
| NPD-2 Compact Development | 3-6 | Density is a design choice, not a cost item; higher density often improves project economics |
| NPD-3 Mixed-Use | 2-4 | Programming diverse uses adds value and earns points |
| NPD-9 Civic and Public Space | 1 | Parks and plazas are already part of good masterplan design |
| NPD-12 Community Outreach | 2 | Process-based: hold a charrette, document engagement |
| NPD-13 Local Food Production | 1 | Community garden is low cost and popular |
| NPD-14 Tree-Lined Streets | 2 | Street trees are standard good practice |
| GIB-4 Outdoor Water Reduction | 1 | Use native/adapted plants, reduce irrigation |
| GIB-9 Heat Island Reduction | 1 | Light-colored paving, street trees, green roofs |
| GIB-10 Solar Orientation | 1 | Orient blocks E-W during masterplanning, zero cost |
| GIB-13 Infrastructure Energy | 1 | LED street lighting is already standard |
| GIB-16 Solid Waste Management | 1 | Recycling stations and construction waste management |
| GIB-17 Light Pollution Reduction | 1 | Full-cutoff fixtures, 3000K color temperature |
| ID-2 LEED AP | 1 | Hire one LEED AP ND team member |
| Subtotal | 18-27 | Achievable with design intent and minimal cost premium |
Tier 2: Medium-Effort Credits (Moderate Points, Moderate Cost)
These credits require intentional design effort or moderate additional investment.
| Credit | Points | What Is Needed |
|---|---|---|
| SLL-1 Preferred Locations | 5-10 | Site selection near transit and in infill areas |
| NPD-1 Walkable Streets | 6-9 | Continuous sidewalks, active ground floors, transparency |
| NPD-4 Housing Types | 3-5 | Diverse unit types, some affordable housing |
| NPD-6 Connected Community | 1-2 | Fine-grained street grid |
| GIB-8 Rainwater Management | 2-4 | Green infrastructure (bioswales, rain gardens, permeable paving) |
| GIB-1 Certified Green Buildings | 2-3 | Certify 20-30% of floor area to LEED Silver/Gold |
| GIB-2 Energy Performance | 1-2 | Enhanced building energy performance |
| GIB-11 Renewable Energy | 1-2 | Solar PV on rooftops, community solar garden |
| Subtotal | 21-37 | Achievable with dedicated design effort |
Tier 3: Stretch Credits (High Points, High Cost or Difficulty)
These credits require significant investment or face external constraints.
| Credit | Points | Challenge |
|---|---|---|
| SLL-4 Quality Transit | 5 | Requires existing or committed transit service |
| NPD-4 Housing Affordability | 3-4 | Deep affordability is expensive (subsidy needed) |
| GIB-1 Certified Green Buildings | 4-5 | Certifying 40-50% of floor area to LEED Platinum |
| GIB-11 Renewable Energy | 3 | 20% on-site renewable energy is substantial |
| GIB-12 District Heating/Cooling | 2 | Infrastructure cost is high |
| GIB-14 Wastewater Management | 2 | On-site treatment to tertiary standards |
| Subtotal | 19-21 | Stretch goals for Platinum aspiration |
LEED-ND Scoring Targets by Certification Level
| Level | Target | Recommended Strategy |
|---|---|---|
| Certified (40) | Low-hanging fruit only | Tier 1 credits (18-27 pts) + a few Tier 2 credits |
| Silver (50) | Tier 1 + partial Tier 2 | All Tier 1 + 6-10 Tier 2 credits |
| Gold (60) | Tier 1 + most of Tier 2 | All Tier 1 + most Tier 2 credits |
| Platinum (80) | All tiers | All Tier 1 + all Tier 2 + most Tier 3 + Innovation credits |
