Accept Candidate A for WP-0010-T01: labor-cost-anchored calculator formula

Browse source 
Maintainer (Bernd) accepted 2026-07-30: estimated_effort_days/daily_rate
driven directly by commit-clustered human interaction time;
approved_direct_costs from real metered AI token cost
(get_token_summary); workplan/task-volume and file/line-size metrics
serve only as a sanity check on the human-time estimate, never their
own dollar figure; Target Multiple remains a human classification.
Candidate B recorded as the considered, not-adopted alternative.

`daily_rate` has.
**This document does not choose between A and B** — that is exactly the
kind of working default a future task (see workplan T02) should propose
and a maintainer should confirm, the same way
`specs/TargetDegenerationPolicyResearch.md` handled the degeneration
formula fork.
**Adopted 2026-07-30** (`workplans/TREV-WP-0010-development-effort-calculator.md`

Candidate B remains recorded here as the considered alternative, not
adopted — revisit only if Candidate A's labor-cost anchor proves
systematically wrong once real repos produce real data, the same
provisional-but-decided treatment `specs/TargetDegenerationPolicyResearch.md`
gave the degeneration formula fork.

**Accepted 2026-07-30 by the maintainer (Bernd): Candidate A
(labor-cost-anchored) confirmed as the adopted v0 formula.**
`estimated_effort_days` and `daily_rate` are driven directly by
commit-clustered human interaction time; AI token cost
(`get_token_summary`) becomes `approved_direct_costs`; workplan/task-
volume and file/line-size metrics serve only as a sanity check/adjustment
on the human-time estimate, never their own dollar figure; the Target
Multiple remains a human classification, not computed. T02 implements
this formula, not Candidate B or a hybrid.
