Construction Takeoff
Run a quantity takeoff on a construction drawing set that has already been processed by the Drawing Analyzer skill. Identifies every countable or measurable element, marks them up on the drawings for audit, calculates primary and secondary quantities (excavation volume, concrete volume, formwork area, reinforcement weight), and exports the results to an Excel workbook with confidence levels. Trigger on phrases like "run a takeoff", "quantity takeoff", "use my construction takeoff skill", or any request to extract quantities from a drawing set.

# Construction Takeoff Skill Performs a quantity takeoff on drawings already processed by the Drawing Analyzer. Produces primary counts, derived secondary quantities, drawing markups for audit, and an Excel export. This skill requires the Drawing Analyzer skill to have been run first. --- ## Why this exists The Bluebeam Max Claude integration can only read the text layer of a drawing. It cannot measure slab areas, read line types, or understand anything in the image layer. The Construction Takeoff skill uses the output from the Drawing Analyzer (text layer plus visual analysis already done) to deliver quantity takeoffs that work on both text-tagged and visually-shown elements. It also marks up the drawings to show what was counted, so the estimator can audit the output before using it in a bid. --- ## Prerequisites Before running this skill: 1. The Drawing Analyzer skill must have been run on the drawing set 2. The `0.ai-context/` folder must exist with: - `drawings.md` (master register) - `symbols.md` (legend library) - `cross-references.md` - `processed/[sheet].md` files (one per sheet) 3. An Excel template must exist at `templates/takeoff-template.xlsx` (or specify another path in the prompt) If any of these are missing, the skill stops and tells the user what to run first. --- ## Workflow ### Phase 1: Confirm scope before processing Ask the user before starting:

Bumblebee

Surgical phrase splicing from real movies and TV shows via yarn.co. Takes any English phrase and slices it into the longest possible runs of words actually spoken on screen, then assembles a final reel where every word is delivered by a real actor. Triggers — "splice a line from movies", "make a fragmovie", "build a video from someone else's words", "bumblebee". Runs fully local with faster-whisper — no API keys. Mix mode (--variants N) generates several distinct cuts of one phrase without reusing clips.
