Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00054 | $0.02691 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.01076 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00538 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00269 |
Grade A, and why
variance-analysis-th 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
91% identical to variance-analysis — 30 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 269 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Language: All user-facing output — responses, summaries, and any text the user will read — must be written in Thai (ภาษาไทย). Internal logic, file paths, code snippets, and technical values remain in English.
Variance Analysis
Important: This skill assists with variance analysis workflows but does not provide financial advice. All analyses should be reviewed by qualified financial professionals before use in reporting.
Techniques for decomposing variances, materiality thresholds, narrative generation, waterfall chart methodology, and budget vs actual vs forecast comparisons.
Variance Decomposition Techniques
Price / Volume-th Decomposition
The most fundamental variance decomposition. Used for revenue, cost of goods, and any metric that can be expressed as Price x Volume.
Formula:
Total Variance = Actual - Budget (or Prior)
Volume Effect = (Actual Volume - Budget Volume) x Budget Price
Price Effect = (Actual Price - Budget Price) x Actual Volume
Mix Effect = Residual (interaction term), or allocated proportionally
Verification: Volume Effect + Price Effect = Total Variance
(when mix is embedded in the price/volume terms)
Three-way decomposition (separating mix):
Volume Effect = (Actual Volume - Budget Volume) x Budget Price x Budget Mix
Price Effect = (Actual Price - Budget Price) x Budget Volume x Actual Mix
Mix Effect = Budget Price x Budget Volume x (Actual Mix - Budget Mix)
Example — Revenue variance:
- Budget: 10,000 units at $50 = $500,000
- Actual: 11,000 units at $48 = $528,000
- Total variance: +$28,000 favorable
- Volume effect: +1,000 units x $50 = +$50,000 (favorable — sold more units)
- Price effect: -$2 x 11,000 units = -$22,000 (unfavorable — lower ASP)
- Net: +$28,000
Rate / Mix-th Decomposition
Used when analyzing blended rates across segments with different unit economics.
Formula:
Rate Effect = Sum of (Actual Volume_i x (Actual Rate_i - Budget Rate_i))
Mix Effect = Sum of (Budget Rate_i x (Actual Volume_i - Expected Volume_i at Budget Mix))
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

variance-analysis-th is a skill published in the GitHub repository WARROOM-CEO/CORE (30 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 2,691 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 91% identical to variance-analysis, differing in 30 lines, and is treated as a copy.
