Estimating Task Effort

Assign relative complexity estimates. Focus on comparison, not calendar time.

Quick Reference

• Input: Task list (from generate-tasks) or PRD requirements.
• Frameworks: Story points, t-shirt sizes, time ranges.
• Output: Each task annotated with estimate + confidence.
• Rule: Flag uncertainty - never fabricate precision.

HARD-GATE

DO NOT assign estimates you don't understand.
DO NOT default to "3 points" or "Medium" as a placeholder.
DO flag tasks needing further breakdown.
DO state confidence (high/medium/low) for every estimate.
