bookkeeper-starter: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/bk-status/SKILL.md

bk-status is a skill for Claude Code from audrey-560/bookkeeper-starter. It costs 61 tokens per session (376 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only bookkeeping dashboard showing what needs attention across one or more clients. It covers missing bank statements, unresolved issues, month-end closing progress, tax deadlines, and unpaid invoices.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for finding missing statements, upcoming filing dates, open exceptions, periods ready to close, and outstanding invoices.
Why use it?
It gathers scattered bookkeeping checks into one status view without changing any records. A month-end close is the process of checking and finalising a period's accounts.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bk-status scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

What This Skill Does

One command, one answer to "what needs attention in the books?" — per client: missing/stale statements, open exceptions, close status per period, filing deadlines inside 90 days (from the jurisdiction pack), and open invoices.

Steps

  1. cd to the project root.
  2. python3 tools/status.py [--client <slug>] [--online]--online adds open-invoice counts from each client's sheet (slower); offline mode is instant and covers everything else.
  3. Present the dashboard, then translate it into the short action list, most urgent first:
    • deadlines ≤ 14 days → name the filing and the date
    • statement gaps → the exact download needed (institution card + range)
    • open exceptions → offer to walk through resolutions (python3 tools/exceptions_queue.py list, tools/resolve_exception.py)
    • months ready to close → offer /monthly-close <client> <month>
  4. If the user asks for detail on one item, drill in with the underlying tool (coverage_check.py, close_period.py status, audit.py --tail 20).

Guardrails

  • Read-only. This skill never writes anywhere.
  • Deadlines come from the jurisdiction pack calendar — if a pack is a stub, say the calendar may be incomplete.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
