3-statements

3-statements is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from microsoft/cat-agent-skills. It costs 116 tokens per session (2,755 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A template filler for an integrated three-statement financial model: an income statement, balance sheet, and cash-flow statement linked in a workbook. It fills an existing layout rather than designing a new model.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to complete an existing financial-model workbook with supported inputs, linked forecasts, and reconciliation checks.
Why use it?
Financial templates can contain disconnected figures or formulas that do not reconcile. This grounds historical inputs, links forecast formulas, and reports whether the statements reconcile.

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

3-statements 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 2d 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 — 218 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Complete an Existing Three-Statement Template

Populate an existing integrated income statement (IS), balance sheet (BS) and cash flow (CF) framework. Deliver a separately named workbook copy with live formulas, evidenced inputs and an honest reconciliation status. The template determines the layout, periods and scope; this skill does not design a new financial model.

When NOT to Use

  • No existing framework, blank workbook, or general Excel cleaning, formatting or formula work: use xlsx instead. Ask for the intended template before proceeding if the user says one exists; never silently create a replacement layout.
  • Discounted cash flow valuation: use dcf-valuation. Leveraged buyout or sponsor returns: use lbo-model.
  • Reviewing or auditing a completed model without filling a framework: outside this skill's scope.
  • Explaining actual-vs-plan movements in the completed statements: use variance-commentary. Assembling support for auditor requests: use audit-evidence-package. Ad-hoc analysis of loose spreadsheet or CSV data: use dataset-analysis-report.
  • Tax returns, regulatory submissions, transactions and personalized investment recommendations are outside scope.

Quick Start

User: "Complete this IS/BS/CF template using the attached annual reports."
1. Inspect the identified workbook with xlsx; preserve an original.
2. Map reported figures, approved forecast drivers and missing inputs.
3. Complete only in-scope input cells and formulas in a copy.
4. Recalculate, run applicable checks and deliver the output structure below.
Missing workbook: request its attachment or accessible link; do not build a model.

Workflow

1. Locate the workbook and settle material context

Use the supplied workbook path/handle. If the user identifies a remote workbook, locate it with m365_search-SearchM365 (sources=["files"]) or sharepoint_onedrive-SearchDrive, then read it with sharepoint_onedrive-ReadFileContent. Search only for that workbook; do not browse unrelated files. Confirm entity, accounting basis, reporting currency/scale, actual periods, forecast horizon and deliverable. Ask one focused core-AskUserQuestion when ambiguity blocks safe progress, bundling related missing facts rather than repeated approvals.

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.
