About this plugin

In any agent workflow, the first critical question during the planning phase is almost always "how long will this take?" When that answer still relies on gut feeling, every downstream schedule loses a reliable anchor. dsh-task-estimate narrows duration estimation down to a single deterministic tool call, turning planning from a vague guess into a reproducible calculation.

Built entirely in Node.js, the plugin registers a task_estimate tool that accepts structured task parameters and returns a detailed, well-formed estimate. The whole computation runs locally with zero network dependencies, making it fast, deterministic, and fully usable in offline environments.

If you are assembling an agent workflow and need quick, repeatable task-duration estimates during the planning stage without spinning up extra services or incurring network overhead, dsh-task-estimate offers a lightweight, plug-and-play option that slots right into your existing toolchain.

Use Cases

  • Quick task duration estimation during the planning phase
  • Offline environments with no network access
  • Feeding structured estimates into downstream scheduling

Best For

  • Engineers building agent workflows
  • Teams needing deterministic estimates in offline settings
  • Developers who prefer lightweight, plug-and-play tools
