balanced-scorecard

balanced-scorecard is a skill for Claude Code from tupe12334/instinct. It costs 22 tokens per session (3,236 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A strategy measurement framework that links an organization’s goals to measures in four areas: financial results, customers, internal processes, and learning and growth.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn a strategy into a balanced set of goals and performance measures.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from judging strategy only by financial results and makes the operational causes of those results visible.

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

balanced-scorecard 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 5d 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.

Balanced Scorecard

Overview

The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) translates an organization's vision and strategy into a coherent set of performance measures across four perspectives. It prevents over-optimization on financials alone by forcing explicit measurement of the drivers that produce financial results — customers, processes, and the people and systems behind them.

Perspectives

Financial

Measures whether strategy execution is creating shareholder value. Lagging indicators — they tell you what already happened.

  • Revenue growth, profit margin, ROI, EBITDA, cost reduction, cash flow

Customer

Measures how the organization is perceived by the customers it targets. Links customer outcomes to financial results.

  • Net Promoter Score, customer retention rate, market share, customer acquisition cost, satisfaction scores

Internal Process

Identifies the critical processes where the organization must excel to deliver on customer and financial goals. These are leading indicators.

  • Cycle time, defect rate, on-time delivery, throughput, process cost, innovation pipeline size

Learning & Growth

Measures the organizational infrastructure — people, systems, and culture — that enables the other three perspectives. The root cause layer.

  • Employee engagement, skill coverage gaps, training hours, system uptime, knowledge-sharing activity

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.
