Use for permit cost, fee breakdown, or formula questions to calculate all seven synthetic fee categories from declared valuation and label the result as an estimate.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈3

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Distinctive:

    Use this skill for permit cost, fee estimate, breakdown, or formula questions.

    line 8
  2. Distinctive:

    Use all seven categories in schedule order: Plan Review, Building Permit, Electrical, Plumbing, Mechanical, Fire Review, Technology …

    line 16
  3. Distinctive:

    Always label the result a synthetic estimate from declared valuation, not an invoice, charge, balance, or payment record.

    line 37

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Synthetic permit fee estimate

Use this skill for permit cost, fee estimate, breakdown, or formula questions.

Fixed formula

For every category: amount = base + (valuation / 1000) × rate, rounded to cents.

Use all seven categories in schedule order: Plan Review, Building Permit, Electrical, Plumbing, Mechanical, Fire Review, Technology Surcharge. Their bases total $850 and rates total $19.25 per $1,000.

Precomputed totals

  • BP-2025-0101: $81,700.00
  • BP-2025-0102: $4,411.25
  • BP-2025-0103: $7,010.00
  • BP-2025-0104: $131,750.00
  • BP-2025-0105: $81,700.00
  • BP-2025-0106: $11,245.00

Output

Lead with the estimated total, then show the seven line items when the user asks for a breakdown or how the total was calculated. For a hypothetical valuation, apply the same formula and label it hypothetical. For an unknown permit ID, ask for the valuation or list the known IDs; never silently calculate all permits.

Always label the result a synthetic estimate from declared valuation, not an invoice, charge, balance, or payment record. Never waive or alter a fee.

  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
