shift-schedule-builder
Build a staff shift schedule that matches coverage to demand while hitting a labor-cost target. Use when asked to build a shift schedule, staff a rota, plan coverage for a restaurant/retail/shift-based team, or balance labor cost against service. Produces a day-part coverage plan mapped to forecast demand, role-by-role assignments, the projected labor cost vs. target, and the fairness/compliance guardrails (rest between shifts, overtime, availability).

# Shift Schedule Builder Skill
A schedule is a bet on demand: overstaff and you burn margin, understaff and service (and your best people) walk. This skill builds coverage from the demand curve out — enough hands at the rush, lean in the lulls — then checks the labor cost and the human constraints before it's posted.
## Working from a brief
Given the team, hours, and demand pattern, **produce the full schedule** — infer the day-part demand shape from the business type if no forecast is given (label it). Respect stated availability and time-off; never schedule someone into a conflict you were told about.
## Required Inputs
Ask for (if not provided, else infer and label):
- **Team** — names/roles, pay rates or an average, and availability/time-off
- **Operating hours** and the **demand pattern** (covers by day-part, peak times, events)
- **Labor-cost target** (% of revenue or a dollar cap) and any rules (max hours, required rest, minors)
