Concrete Design Calculator Skill
Purpose
The Concrete Design Calculator Skill performs reinforced concrete design calculations for beams, slabs, and columns per ACI 318 including flexure, shear, torsion, and serviceability checks.
Capabilities
- Flexural design (beams, slabs, columns)
- Shear and torsion design
- Development length calculations
- Crack width calculations
- Deflection calculations (immediate and long-term)
- ACI 318 code compliance checking
- Interaction diagrams for columns
- Slenderness effects analysis
Usage Guidelines
When to Use
- Designing reinforced concrete members
- Checking serviceability requirements
- Evaluating existing concrete structures
- Determining reinforcement requirements
Prerequisites
- Member geometry defined
- Loads and moments established
- Material properties specified
- Exposure conditions identified
Best Practices
- Check both strength and serviceability
- Consider construction tolerances
- Verify bar spacing and cover
- Document all design assumptions

gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
