📖About & Usage

Owner agent — accountability this droid serves

Midas is responsible for keeping track of costs and making sure the organization doesn't overspend. A big part of his job is knowing ahead of time what projects will cost. CI-S1 handles the prediction side: it estimates what new projects will probably cost before they happen.

Droid responsibility

CI-S1 provides the forward-looking cost numbers Midas needs to do his job. When a new project is proposed, CI-S1 estimates what it will cost. Midas gets this estimate in time to decide whether the organization can afford it.

What the droid actually does

• Looks at what the organization has spent on similar work in the past
• Counts the steps in a proposed plan
• Estimates the cost by taking historical averages and adjusting for patterns like retries and review cycles
• Delivers the estimate through an API that the planning system uses
• Shows its assumptions and reasoning so people can validate the estimate

Boundaries

CI-S1 only estimates; it doesn't track actual spending or enforce budget limits. It can't forecast costs for work that's completely different from anything the organization has done before.
