# CPM Schedule Generator Skill

## Purpose

The CPM Schedule Generator Skill develops construction schedules using Critical Path Method including activity sequencing, float analysis, and resource leveling.

## Capabilities

- Critical path calculation
- Float analysis (total, free, independent)
- Resource leveling
- Schedule compression
- Gantt chart generation
- Progress tracking
- Baseline comparison
- What-if analysis

## Usage Guidelines
