Assess Complexity
Evaluate task complexity using automated codebase analysis before starting implementation work.
Overview
- Determining if a task is ready for implementation
- Deciding whether to break down a large task
- Estimating effort before committing to work
- Identifying high-risk areas in the codebase
- Planning sprint work with complexity scores
Usage
Assess complexity for: $ARGUMENTS
Step 1: Gather Metrics
Run the analysis script to collect codebase metrics:
!./scripts/analyze-codebase.sh $ARGUMENTS
Step 2: Assess Each Criterion
Score each criterion from 1-5 based on the metrics and your understanding:
1. Lines of Code
| Range | Score |
|---|---|
| < 50 lines | 1 |
| 50-200 lines | 2 |
| 200-500 lines | 3 |
| 500-1500 lines | 4 |
| 1500+ lines | 5 |
2. Time Estimate
| Duration | Score |
|---|---|
| < 30 minutes | 1 |
| 30 min – 2 hours | 2 |
| 2-8 hours | 3 |
| 8-24 hours (1-3 days) | 4 |
| 24+ hours (3+ days) | 5 |
3. Number of Files
| Count | Score |
|---|---|
| 1 file | 1 |
| 2-3 files | 2 |
| 4-10 files | 3 |
| 11-25 files | 4 |
| 26+ files | 5 |
4. Dependencies Count
| Unique Modules | Score |
|---|---|
| 0 dependencies | 1 |
| 1 dependency | 2 |
| 2-3 dependencies | 3 |
| 4-6 dependencies | 4 |
| 7+ dependencies | 5 |
5. Unknowns/Uncertainty
| Level | Score |
|---|---|
| No unknowns – Everything clear | 1 |
| Minimal – 1-2 minor questions | 2 |
| Some – Several questions, researchable | 3 |
| Significant – Many questions, requires exploration | 4 |
| Many – Unclear scope, needs prototyping | 5 |
6. Cross-Cutting Concerns
| Scope | Score |
|---|---|
| Isolated change – Single module | 1 |
| Minor integration – 2-3 modules | 2 |
| Multiple integrations – 4-5 modules | 3 |
| Cross-cutting – Affects many modules | 4 |
| Architectural – System-wide impact | 5 |
7. Risk Level
| Risk | Score |
|---|---|
| No risk – Trivial change | 1 |
| Low risk – Well-understood pattern | 2 |
| Medium risk – Some complexity, testable | 3 |
| High risk – Complex logic, many edge cases | 4 |
| Very high risk – Mission-critical, high stakes | 5 |
Step 3: Calculate Total Score
Sum all scores: _____ / 35
Calculate average: Total / 7 = _____
Complexity Level Assignment
| Average Score | Level | Classification |
|---|---|---|
| 1.0 – 1.4 | 1 | Trivial |
| 1.5 – 2.4 | 2 | Simple |
| 2.5 – 3.4 | 3 | Moderate |
| 3.5 – 4.4 | 4 | Complex |
| 4.5 – 5.0 | 5 | Very Complex |
Step 4: Decision
Level 1-3: Proceed
Task is manageable. Continue with implementation.
Level 4-5: Break Down
Task is too complex. Decompose into subtasks and reassess each part.
