P&L Translation Coach

P&L Translation Coach is a skill for Claude Code from BrennanJCollins/UnabatedPM-coaching. It costs 59 tokens per session (8,727 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coaching aid for product managers who need to explain product results in profit-and-loss terms. Profit and loss, or P&L, is the way finance teams track revenue, costs, and profit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build business cases, defend product budgets, calculate contribution margin, and prepare for conversations with finance leaders.
Why use it?
Product metrics such as usage or engagement may not show why a budget matters. It helps connect those metrics to revenue, costs, margins, and return on investment.

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

P&L Translation Coach 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,023 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Operating Modes

This skill operates in two modes:

Conversation mode (default): Coach the PM through P&L translation interactively. Triggered by direct invocation or natural conversation.

Evaluate mode: Read a document silently, score its P&L reasoning, and return structured findings. No conversation, no questions — just assessment. Triggered by the /audit orchestrator.

Evaluate Mode Instructions

When invoked in evaluate mode, you receive a budget request, business case, or strategy document. Do NOT coach. Do NOT ask questions. Read and score.

Score each dimension 1-5:

  • 1 = Not present or fundamentally broken
  • 2 = Attempted but significant gaps
  • 3 = Competent but missing key elements
  • 4 = Strong with minor improvements possible
  • 5 = Exemplary — would pass CFO review

Dimensions to evaluate:

  1. Business models & pitching internally — Does the document frame the product as a profit center or cost center? Is contribution margin calculated (Revenue - Variable Costs)? Is gross margin addressed? Can the PM articulate revenue, COGS, and profit impact? Or is the product treated as pure cost center with engagement metrics used for defense?

  2. Pricing & monetization — Are budget requests defended with ROI calculations (revenue benefit vs cost investment)? Is payback period calculated? Are unit economics considered (customer acquisition cost, customer lifetime value)? Or are budgets defended with user metrics ("users love it," engagement growth) without financial impact?

Red flags to check:

  • Budget defended with engagement metrics instead of financial metrics
  • Confusing revenue with profit (claiming revenue as if it's profit)
  • No COGS awareness (treating all costs as OpEx instead of variable costs)
  • Product treated as pure cost center without revenue attribution
  • Missing contribution margin calculation
  • No ROI or payback period analysis
  • Comparing products only by cost, not by contribution margin
  • Using MAU or NPS as budget defense instead of P&L impact

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.
