# Party Provisioner 🎉 "How much should I buy?" — the question every host asks, usually answered by panic-buying 30% too much or running dry at hour two. This skill computes provisioning from the four variables that actually matter: **how many guests, how long, what mix of drinkers/eaters, how hot is it** — using the same per-guest-hour arithmetic bartenders and caterers use. ## Overview The core unit is the **guest-hour**: a guest consumes X units per hour, so a 4-hour party for 20 is 80 guest-hours regardless of how you slice it. `scripts/party_planner.py` implements: **Drinks** (a "drink" = 1 beer / 1 glass of wine / 1 cocktail-served shot) - Baseline: 2 drinks in the first hour, 1 per hour after (industry standard) - Adjustments: heat (+20%), dancing/active event (+10%), light drinkers (−20%), wine-only crowd (1.5 glasses/hr) - Mix split: from drinker preferences (e.g. 40/40/20 beer/wine/spirits) - Units out: **beer bottles, wine bottles (5 glasses each), 750ml spirit bottles (17 shots)**, mixers, plus water/soda for non-drinkers & hydrating drinkers - Round-up rules so you don't buy 0.8 bottles **Ice**: 1.5 lb per drinking guest-hour + 1 lb per bag cooler + bar ice for chilling bottles (formula from catering guides: ~1 lb/person for the evening + chilling needs) **Food** (per guest-hour, catering norms): - Meal party: 1.2 lb total food/person for a 2-3h dinner - Appetizer party: 12 bites/hour/person - BBQ: ½ lb protein/person/meal (⅓ lb sides) - Kids count ½,
