This page explains the arithmetic behind the estimate so you can adjust assumptions before using the number in planning.
Common questions
Why is the buffer higher for coding tools?

Does this include CI or sandbox compute?
No. It estimates model tokens only.
Should output tokens be higher for code?
Often yes, because diffs and explanations can be long.
