ar-dso-discipline

ar-dso-discipline is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from deciqAI/knowledge-skills. It costs 70 tokens per session (643 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of practices for collecting money that customers owe after being invoiced. DSO, or days sales outstanding, is the average number of days a business waits to receive payment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Measuring overdue invoices, invoicing promptly, requesting deposits or milestone payments, sending reminders, offering online payment, and handling chronic late payers.
Why use it?
Late payments turn completed sales into cash the business cannot yet use. These practices make invoices easier to pay, create a regular follow-up process, and set clearer payment terms.

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

ar-dso-discipline 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 12d 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.

AR & DSO Discipline — Get Paid Faster

Overview

Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) is the average time to collect after a sale. For any business that invoices, uncollected receivables are cash you earned but can't use — and late payment is the quiet killer of otherwise healthy SMBs. Getting paid faster is usually the cheapest source of cash a founder has: no dilution, no debt, just discipline and better terms.

The Process

  1. Measure DSO and aging — average collection time + a bucketed aging report (0–30, 31–60, 61–90, 90+).
  2. Invoice instantly and correctly — same-day, clear terms, right contact; delays compound. Gate: invoicing days after delivery silently adds days to DSO.
  3. Shift terms upstream — deposits, milestones, upfront, autopay/card-on-file; reduce net terms where you can.
  4. Systematize follow-up — automated reminders before and after due date, escalating cadence (pairs with an AR/AP operator agent). Gate: ad-hoc, emotional chasing = inconsistent collections; make it a scheduled sequence.
  5. Make paying easy — online payment, multiple methods, one click.
  6. Enforce consequences — late fees, work-stop, or credit holds for chronic offenders; fire unprofitable late-payers.

When to Use

  • Cash tight while revenue looks fine
  • Growing overdue/aged receivables
  • Service/B2B businesses on net terms

Applying It Well

  • Deposits/upfront beat any collection tactic — design them in.
  • Consistent automated reminders outperform sporadic personal chasing.
  • Track DSO monthly as a core cash KPI, not an afterthought.

Red Flags

  • No aging report; not knowing who owes what.
  • Invoicing late or with errors that restart the clock.
  • Tolerating chronic late-payers without consequence.

Verification

  • DSO + aging report in place
  • Same-day accurate invoicing
  • Deposits/upfront/autopay applied where possible
  • Automated escalating follow-up sequence running
