    Invoice & Expense Sanity Gate — Catch Math Errors, Duplicates & Policy Breaks Before Money Moves

    by PubsProToolkit

    An adversarial reviewer for invoices, receipts, and expense reports. It re-checks the math, flags missing details, duplicate or already-paid items, policy breaches, and fraud-risk red flags, then returns a PASS / REVISE / HOLD verdict — before you send, pay, or approve.

    Sample input

    Invoice #1042 to Acme Co.\n3 x Consulting hours @ $150 = $450\n1 x Setup fee @ $200 = $200\nSubtotal: $650\nTax (8%): $52\nTotal: $700\nTerms: Net 30. Pay to: (bank details not shown)

    Sample output

    VERDICT: REVISE\nSUMMARY: Two issues — a grand-total error and missing payment details; do not send yet.\n\nARITHMETIC:\n - Subtotal 650 + tax 52 = 702, but Total shows 700 (off by 2).\n - Tax at 8% of 650 = 52.00 is correct; the error is in the grand total.\nCOMPLETENESS:\n - Payment instructions / bank details are missing.\n - No invoice date is shown.\nDUPLICATES:\n - None detected.\nPOLICY & PLAUSIBILITY:\n - Line items and rates are plausible.\nRED FLAGS:\n - None.\n\nFIX FIRST:\n - Correct the grand total to 702.00.\n - Add invoice date and payment instructions before sending.

    About This Skill

    The Invoice & Expense Sanity Gate is an adversarial reviewer for invoices, vendor bills, receipts, and expense reports. You hand it a finished document — an invoice you are about to send, a bill you are about to pay, or an expense report you are about to approve — and it stress-tests it for the mistakes that quietly cost money: arithmetic that does not reconcile, tax applied to the wrong base, missing payment or invoice details, duplicate or already-paid line items, entries that break a stated policy, and signals that warrant a second look before payment.\n\nIt runs five passes — arithmetic, completeness, duplicate/already-paid, policy & plausibility, and red-flags — and returns a structured PASS / REVISE / HOLD verdict with the highest-impact fixes listed first. It is built to be the last check before money moves, especially when an AI agent or template generated the document and no one has verified the numbers line by line.\n\nIt judges; it does not generate. It never creates invoices, fills in numbers, categorizes transactions, gives tax or legal advice, or connects to your bank or accounting software.

    Use Cases

    File Scopes

    invoice-expense-sanity-gate/**

    Read-only access is the only permission this skill needs. It reads the single invoice, receipt, or expense document you provide and returns a verdict. It never writes files, connects to a network, touches your accounting software or bank, or runs commands — it cannot move money or change records.

    Model-agnostic and works with any assistant that can read a file or pasted text. Pure reasoning over the document you provide — it requests read-only access and has no network or write access, so it never touches your accounting system, bank, or books. Paste an invoice, receipt, or expense report (text, table, or extracted PDF text) and it returns a structured verdict.
