# Estimate Issue Complexity

> Assigns issue points using Luca's complexity metadata rules. Use when the user asks to grade, estimate, score, point, size, triage, compare, normalize, or audit issues by complexity, especially when they mention points, estimates, acceptance criteria, issue sizing, uncertainty, or oversized work.

# Estimate Issue Complexity
Compatibility entrypoint. Use `issue-authoring` for the actual workflow:

1. Read `../issue-authoring/SKILL.md`.
2. Follow its "Estimate complexity" branch.
3. Read `../issue-authoring/references/complexity-scale.md`.
4. Report the score, acceptance criteria used, complexity reasons, and any decomposition recommendation.
