Estimate development timelines

Estimate time, effort, or complexity with confidence intervals

Planning timelines and resource allocation with transparent confidence levels rather than false precision.

• · Task/feature/project description
• · Optional --type (time|effort|complexity), --unit (hours|days|weeks), --breakdown flag

• · Estimate with confidence interval (high/medium/low)
• · Breakdown documentation (if --breakdown)
• · Risk factor identification and dependency mapping

• · Scope clear enough to estimate (vague scopes require clarification)
• · Estimation type specified or inferred from context

• · Scope too vague → estimates unreliable, ask clarifying questions
• · Hidden dependencies discovered → re-estimate after dependency mapping
• · Team skill level unknown → confidence interval widened

• · Confidence intervals attached (85-95% high, 70-84% medium, 50-69% low)
• · Breakdown shows per-component estimates
• · Risk factors identified and mapped
• · PAL MCP integration for multi-perspective validation
