Skill instructions
Plan Payroll Three skills in order: know payroll is covered, close the gap if it is not, then run it. Owners do not ask two separate questions here. "Can I make payroll" and "run payroll" are one worry, and splitting them across two sessions is how a run gets keyed in at 11pm without anyone checking the bank balance first. Parse arguments: - --horizon (default 30) — forecast window in days: 30, 60, or 90 - --payroll-date (optional) — the date payroll runs; defaults to the next scheduled pay date Step 1 — Is payroll covered? (cash-flow-snapshot) Invoke cash-flow-snapshot. It owns the forecast math, the confidence bands, and the CSV fallback — do not rebuild any of it here. - Goes in: the horizon and the payroll date. - Comes out: a 30/60/90-day forecast, named risk flags, a chat summary, and an XLSX. Say the verdict in one line before anything else: covered, tight, or short by a named dollar amount on a named date. Gate — where the chain goes next. If payroll is comfortably covered, ask
