    Example session with this skill installed

    Run a July margin and capacity review for Project Alpha. Recognized revenue: $50,000. Planned: 300 design hours at $45 internal cost, 100 PM hours at $35, plus a $2,000 contractor budget. Actual: 360 design hours, 160 PM hours, and $2,000 contractor cost. Seventy of the 120 excess hours are documented against three client-requested changes; none has an approved change order. Currency: USD.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the agency margin command

    Executive verdict

    Project Alpha remains profitable on the supplied delivery-cost basis, but gross margin fell by 9.6 percentage points and 70 hours are documented as unapproved scope leakage. Recovery should focus on commercializing the changes and controlling the remaining work—not on unsupported staffing cuts.

    Gross margin$31,000$26,200-$4,800
    Gross margin %62.0%52.4%-9.6 pts

    Formulas: planned cost = 300×$45 + 100×$35 + $2,000. Actual cost = 360×$45 + 160×$35 + $2,000. Gross margin = recognized revenue − delivery cost.

    Leakage register

    • 70 excess hours are evidenced against three client-requested changes. Their exact cost is

    Unknown because the role mix for those hours was not supplied.

    • The remaining 50 excess hours require classification before attributing cause.

    Priority interventions

    1. Map the 70 hours to each change request and prepare an evidence-based change-order decision.
    2. Classify the remaining 50 hours as rework, estimating error, internal overhead, or approved delivery.
    3. Forecast remaining hours by role before committing more capacity.

    Scenarios

    A recovery scenario cannot responsibly show dollar savings until remaining effort, billability, and client approval probability are provided. The next model should vary only those named inputs.

    30-day action plan

    Within 48 hours, reconcile time entries to change requests. This week, assign commercial owners and decide which changes to price, absorb, or stop. Before the next fixed-fee sale, add approval gates at scope change and budget-consumption thresholds.

    About this skill

    The problem

    Agency owners and PMs often fly blind, relying on gut feelings rather than hard data to judge project health. Disconnected spreadsheets make it impossible to see where scope creep, idle capacity, or seniority mismatches are eating the margin.

    What it does

    • Builds a data-quality ledger to identify missing or conflicting inputs before analysis.
    • Traces margin leakage to specific drivers like revision cycles, under-scoping, or contractor overruns.
    • Models capacity collisions by blending committed work with qualified pipeline data.
    • Generates recovery plans with interventions ranked by impact, effort, and time-to-value.
    • Produces scenario tables (conservative, base, upside) with transparent formulas.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    General LLMs often hallucinate missing financial figures or fail to distinguish between recognized and forecast revenue. This skill enforces a rigorous decision framework that marks confidence levels and maintains strict separation between operational and commercial actions.

    Use cases

    • Portfolio reviews to identify which clients are systematically under-priced.
    • Margin recovery audits when a high-revenue project is yielding low profit.
    • Staffing scenario modeling to decide between hiring or using contractors for new pipeline.
    • Change-order justification using evidence-backed scope leakage data.

    Known limitations

    Requires raw project data to function. Does not handle tax or formal accounting treatments. Cannot automate layoffs or direct system changes.
