Wind Load Calculator Skill
Purpose
The Wind Load Calculator Skill determines wind loads on structures per ASCE 7 for main wind force resisting systems (MWFRS) and components and cladding (C&C).
Capabilities
- Basic wind speed determination
- Exposure category classification
- Wind pressure calculation (MWFRS and C&C)
- Building envelope pressures
- Open building wind loads
- Tornado shelter design wind loads
- Internal pressure determination
- Directional and envelope procedures
Usage Guidelines
When to Use
- Calculating design wind loads
- Evaluating cladding pressures
- Designing MWFRS members
- Assessing open structure loads
Prerequisites
- Building geometry defined
- Site location established
- Risk category determined
- Enclosure classification identified
Best Practices
- Verify exposure category
- Consider topographic effects
- Check internal pressure requirements
- Document wind speed sources

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.
