performance-narrative

performance-narrative is a skill for Claude Code from daddia/claude-for-strategy. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,065 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing workflow that turns performance numbers or tracker results into a short, bottom-line-first explanation for a specific audience.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps write readable performance updates for executives, sponsors, or boards using supplied metrics.
Why use it?
It removes the need to explain metrics one by one and helps expose missing or unverified figures before they are presented.

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

performance-narrative 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 4d 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.

Performance Narrative

When to use

Turn metrics/tracker results into BLUF narrative for the audience in the practice profile — bottom line first, not metric-by-metric walkthrough.

What this skill does not do

  • Does not invent actuals — flag missing numbers [verify].
  • Does not build trackers — route to /performance:tracker-builder.
  • Does not replace finance sign-off — board numbers need finance validation per profile gates.

Preconditions

Input If missing
Metrics or tracker results Ask user to provide
Practice profile (audience, cadence) Use org default audiences; tag [PROVISIONAL]
Headline-worthy context Ask what audience will act on

Provisional mode

Without audience in profile: default to sponsor/exec; tag [PROVISIONAL]; apply quiet mode for external-facing per plugin CLAUDE.md.

Trust spine

  • Confidence bands (narrative-synthesis):
    • High: BLUF headline, 2–4 MECE supporting points, explicit what's-needed, sourced figures.
    • Medium: Some unsourced movements tagged [verify].
    • Low: Numbers missing for headline claim — halt or narrow scope.
  • Failure modes:
    • Strategic advice vs. support: Narrative surfaces findings; audience decides action.
    • Client confidentiality: Board/sponsor content — CONFIDENTIAL header; quiet mode for external.
    • Accountability gap: What's-needed stated explicitly, not inferred.
    • Analytical Rigor: MECE supporting points; so-what test on each metric.
    • Incentive Gaming: N/A — narrative shape.
  • Escalation triggers: Headline depends on unverified figure — tag before BLUF.

Workflow

  1. Read practice profile for audience and cadence.
  2. Identify headline — one thing audience must know this period.
  3. Write bottom line first — conclusion not topic.
  4. Group supporting metrics into 2–4 MECE points; so-what test.
  5. State what's needed — decision, investment, awareness.
  6. Full metric detail last as reference appendix.
  7. Connector figures. When metrics are read from ~~bi analytics, ~~spreadsheet, ~~crm, or other MCP sources, tag each number [sourced: <connector>, <dataset/report>, <as-of date>] per ../../references/trust-conventions.md. Uncited connector figures are not allowed in board-facing output; use [verify] or INPUT NEEDED when the pull fails.
  8. MECE/falsifiability check before output.

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.
