# Constraint Identifier ## Overview The Constraint Identifier skill provides comprehensive capabilities for identifying and exploiting system constraints using Theory of Constraints (TOC) principles. It supports bottleneck identification, throughput analysis, and implementation of the five focusing steps. ## Capabilities - Bottleneck identification algorithms - Throughput rate analysis - Constraint exploitation strategies - Subordination planning - Buffer sizing calculation - Constraint elevation options - Drum identification ## Used By Processes - TOC-001: Constraint Identification and Exploitation - TOC-002: Drum-Buffer-Rope Scheduling - CAP-001: Capacity Requirements Planning ## Tools and Libraries - Simulation software - Throughput analysis tools - Process mapping tools - Data analytics platforms ## Usage ```yaml skill: constraint-identifier inputs: process_steps: - name: "Cutting" capacity: 120 demand: 100 - name: "Assembly" capacity: 80 demand: 100 - name: "Testing" capacity: 110 demand: 100 - name: "Packing" capacity: 150 demand: 100 current_throughput: 78 target_throughput: 100 outputs: - constraint_identification - exploitation_strategies - subordination_plan - elevation_options - buffer_recommendations ``` ## Five Focusing Steps ### Step 1: Identify the Constraint - Analyze capacity vs. demand at each step - Look for WIP accumulation points - Identify resource with lowest thr...
