What it does
Time Resource Estimator is an agent skill from zanecole10/software-tailor-skills. Estimate realistic project timelines, break down hours by feature/phase, include buffer for revisions, set achievable client expectations, and avoid over-promising deadlines you can't meet.

The repository describes itself as: 15 Claude Skills for building a K+ software tailoring business. Find clients, price projects, build fast, and scale revenue using AI code generation.
Example prompts
- “/time-resource-estimator”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit afd0b74. 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
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Time Resource Estimator loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 670 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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 670 words (~1,349 tokens).
“Stop over-promising. Deliver on time with realistic estimates.”
