instrument-metrics

instrument-metrics is a skill for Claude Code from daddia/claude-for-strategy. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,049 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for turning key results into exact measurement definitions, including a formula, data source, owner, and update schedule.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when specifying how goals or key results should be measured, checking data ownership and refresh timing, and preparing an explicit handoff to performance-tracking tools.
Why use it?
It exposes missing or ambiguous information instead of silently choosing how a metric should be calculated, so different people can reproduce the same number.

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

instrument-metrics 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 11d 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.

Instrument Metrics

When to use

Map each KR to a measurement spec precise enough two people calculate the same number — with cross-plugin handoff to performance when installed.

What this skill does not do

  • Does not duplicate performance:metrics-glossary when performance plugin installed — mapping only.
  • Does not set targets — route to /okr:set-targets after baselines known.
  • Does not invent data sources — flag unknowns for user input.

Preconditions

Input If missing
KRs to instrument Ask user to provide
Practice profile (performance plugin status, check-in frequency) Detect performance plugin; flag [PROVISIONAL] on cadence match

Provisional mode

Ambiguous formulas: flag AMBIGUITY FLAGS — do not pick calculation method silently.

Trust spine

  • Confidence bands (structured-aggregation):
    • High: Every KR mapped; formula/source/owner/cadence complete or deferred to performance with explicit handoff.
    • Medium: Some ambiguities flagged; cadence mismatches noted.
    • Low: KRs without measurable spec — halt target-setting.
  • Failure modes:
    • Strategic advice vs. support: Spec is draft for data owner validation.
    • Client confidentiality: Metric definitions may expose internal systems — CONFIDENTIAL header.
    • Accountability gap: Owner named per metric; ambiguities flagged not hidden.
    • Analytical Rigor: Completeness check — every KR has mapping or explicit gap.
    • Incentive Gaming: N/A — definition focus.
  • Escalation triggers: Check-in frequency faster than metric refresh — flag mismatch blocking reliable pulse.

Workflow

  1. Read practice profile for performance plugin status.
  2. If performance installed: KR-to-metric mapping only; defer definition to performance:metrics-glossary.
  3. If performance not installed or metric new: full spec — formula, source, owner, refresh, caveats.
  4. Cadence match check — check-in frequency vs. metric refresh.
  5. Flag ambiguous formulas — do not pick silently.
  6. Completeness/source-tag check before output.

instrument-metrics is a skill published in the GitHub repository daddia/claude-for-strategy (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 1,049 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
