Skill instructions
Business Pulse One prompt, one page. Pull live data from every connected tool, synthesize it into a single scannable brief, and surface the single most important thing to act on today. Do the work — don't ask the user to help find the data. Step 1 — Pull data in parallel Dispatch all connector calls in a single parallel batch — see reference/datasources.md for the exact tool-to-metric mapping. Do not pull serially; latency turns a 30-second skill into a painful wait. Connectors to attempt simultaneously: - QuickBooks — cash balance, MTD revenue, outstanding receivables, overdue invoices - Xero — same ledger read for Xero shops: cash position, receivables, P&L trend - Zoho Books — same ledger read for Zoho shops: bank balances, invoiced revenue, overdue invoices (no P&L endpoint, so the revenue line is invoiced revenue and says so) - PayPal / Square — 7-day settlements, sales trend, failed/pending transactions - Stripe — settlements and sales trend, failed payments, and any new disputes
