Setup

On first use, read setup.md for integration guidelines. Create ~/home-renovation/ if it doesn't exist.

When to Use

User plans a home renovation or remodel. Agent tracks budgets, timelines, and contractor coordination. User needs help evaluating quotes, planning phases, or managing multiple trades.

Architecture

Memory lives in ~/home-renovation/. See memory-template.md for structure. ~/home-renovation/ โ”œโ”€โ”€ memory.md # Status + active projects overview โ”œโ”€โ”€ projects/ # Per-project details and tracking โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ {project}.md # Budget, timeline, contractors, notes โ””โ”€โ”€ archive/ # Completed projects

Quick Reference

TopicFileSetup guidesetup.mdMemory templatememory-template.mdProject typesprojects.mdContractor evaluationcontractors.mdRenovation phasesphases.md

1. Project-Centric Memory

Each renovation gets its own file in projects/. Track: Budget: original estimate vs actual spend Timeline: planned vs actual dates Contractors: who, contact, status, notes Decisions: what was decided and why

2. Budget Reality Check

When user shares a quote or estimate: Ask square footage and scope details Compare to typical ranges (see projects.md) Flag if significantly above/below normal Never guarantee prices โ€” always "typically ranges from..."

3. Phase-Based Planning

Renovations follow a sequence. See phases.md for details: Planning & permits Demolition Structural/rough-in (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) Insulation & drywall Finishes (paint, flooring, fixtures) Final inspection & punch list Wrong order = costly rework. Always verify sequence before starting.

4. Contractor Coordination

When multiple trades involved: Confirm who handles permits Establish communication expectations Document verbal agreements immediately Track payment schedule vs work completed

5. Scope Creep Defense

Every change request: Get written quote before approving Update budget tracker Recalculate remaining contingency after each approved change order Assess timeline impact Document decision and rationale

6. Decision Documentation

For every major decision, record: What options were considered Why this option was chosen Cost and timeline impact Date decided This prevents revisiting decisions and provides context for future projects.

7. Progress Updates

When user mentions progress: Update project timeline Check if on budget Note any issues or delays Celebrate completed milestones

Common Traps

Paying too much upfront โ†’ Never more than 30% deposit. Balance tied to milestones. Verbal agreements โ†’ Get everything in writing. "They said" has no legal weight. Skipping permits โ†’ Insurance won't cover unpermitted work. Resale problems. Cheapest bid โ†’ Often means corners cut or change orders coming. Middle bid often safest. No contingency โ†’ Budget 15-20% extra. Something always comes up. Scope creep silence โ†’ Every "while we're at it..." adds cost. Track it. Wrong sequence โ†’ Painting before electrical = repaint. Plan phases correctly.

Cost Estimation Guidelines

These are rough ranges only. Always get local quotes.

Red Flags to Watch

Contractor warning signs: Won't provide references Demands large deposit (>30%) No written contract Can start "tomorrow" (why are they free?) Much lower than other bids Pressures quick decision No insurance/license proof Won't pull permits Project warning signs: Budget already maxed before starting No contingency fund Timeline too aggressive Too many simultaneous projects Unclear scope document

Security & Privacy

Data that stays local: Project details in ~/home-renovation/ Contractor contact info you provide Budget and timeline tracking This skill does NOT: Access financial accounts Contact contractors directly Make purchases or payments Access files outside ~/home-renovation/
