How does the Complexity Scorer calculate its results?

It uses a weighted formula across eight factors: files affected (20%), dependencies (15%), testing needs (15%), risk level (15%), new vs. existing code (10%), cross-cutting concerns (10%), database changes (10%), and external APIs (5%).

What happens if a task score is very high?

Any task scoring a 9 or 10 is automatically flagged for potential decomposition, suggesting that the task be split into smaller, atomic sub-tasks for better management.

Can it analyze multiple tasks at once?

Yes, it supports a Batch Mode that provides an aggregate view of project complexity, including average scores, distribution across levels, and identification of the most complex bottlenecks.

Does the skill account for my specific codebase?

When codebase context is provided, the skill improves accuracy by checking for existing patterns, verifying file counts, and assessing current test coverage levels.

生産性とワークフロー

Evaluates and assigns weighted complexity scores to development tasks based on technical impact, dependencies, and risk.

Complexity Scorer is a specialized engineering utility for the Task Master plugin designed to automate effort estimation and project scoping. By analyzing eight critical dimensions—including file changes, dependency counts, testing requirements, and architectural risk—it generates a standardized complexity score from 1 to 10. This skill helps developers and project leads identify potential bottlenecks, justify resource allocation, and determine when a task is too large and requires decomposition into smaller, more manageable units.
