month-end-prep
From the author
Reconciles the accounting ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books) against PayPal, Shopify, Square, and Stripe settlements, flags transactions that need attention, suspicious duplicates, and missing receipts, then writes a plain-English P&L narrative and exports a close packet (xlsx + one-page PDF). This is the first link of the /close-month command; a request to close the month or the books routes there, and the command runs this skill before refreshing the forecast and distributing the packet. Use this skill directly only when the owner wants the reconciliation alone, with no forecast refresh and no distribution: "just reconcile, no packet," "what's missing from the books," "flag the duplicates and missing receipts," or "write the P&L narrative for this month."

- close-monthanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsCloses the books and turns them into a decision as a three-link chain — month-end-prep reconciles the ledger against every connected payment processor and writes the P&L narrative, cash-flow-snapshot then refreshes the 30/60/90-day forecast off the newly closed numbers rather than raw ones, and report-builder publishes and distributes the close packet. Requires a ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books) and uses Gusto, PayPal, Ramp, Shopify, Square, and Stripe when connected, falling back to statement or CSV uploads. Trigger on "close the month," "month-end," "close the books," "reconcile," "send the close packet to my accountant," or when the owner asks why revenue or margin moved last month. An owner who wants only the reconciliation and its flags, with no forecast refresh and no packet distribution, routes to month-end-prep directly.OfficialData★ 31K
- plan-payrollanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsRuns the payroll-confidence chain end to end — forecasts cash across the payroll window with cash-flow-snapshot, ranks and drafts overdue-invoice reminders with invoice-chase to close any gap, then assembles timesheets, flags every anomaly, and stages the run with payroll-prep. On Gusto the run is staged for the owner to submit; on QuickBooks Payroll, or with no payroll system, the last step is a validated run sheet the owner keys in. This chain never presses the payroll button. Builds on the ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books), with Gmail or M365, PayPal, Square, Stripe, and either Gusto or QuickBooks Payroll adding detail, and falls back to CSV and timesheet uploads. Use it whenever payroll is the worry, including "can I make payroll," "payroll is due Friday," "plan payroll," "will I have enough to pay the crew," or "I need to run payroll but money is tight." Accepts optional horizon and payroll-date arguments.OfficialPlanning★ 31K
- tax-prepanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsPrepares tax materials as a two-link chain — month-end-prep confirms the books are closed and reconciled first, then tax-season-organizer calculates the quarterly estimated payment or builds the year-end 1099-NEC list and accountant packet from those closed numbers. Requires a ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books); uses Gusto, PayPal, and Stripe when connected, else CSV upload. US federal tax math; a non-US business gets the closed-books packet. Prep material for a CPA, never tax advice, nothing filed. Trigger on "quarterly taxes," "estimated tax payment," "how much should I set aside," "1099s," "1099-NEC," "W-9s," "year-end tax prep," "get my books ready for my accountant," any phrasing that suggests a tax deadline is coming, or a question about net profit or YTD income that sounds like worry about a tax bill. An owner who says the period's books are already closed routes to tax-season-organizer directly.OfficialFinance★ 31K
- reconciliationanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsReconcile accounts by comparing GL balances to subledgers, bank statements, or third-party data. Use when performing bank reconciliations, GL-to-subledger recs, intercompany reconciliations, or identifying and categorizing reconciling items.OfficialOther★ 31K
- restockanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsTurns what is actually selling into a reorder decision and gets it all the way into the books — computes sales velocity and conservative stockout dates per item, sizes the reorder, drafts the purchase order and the vendor email, and then stages the matching entry so the bill matches against the PO when it arrives. Flags the money sitting still too, so dead stock gets cleared instead of reordered. Runs on Shopify, Square, or an uploaded sales and stock CSV, and deepens with QuickBooks, Gmail or M365, Calendar, and NetSuite. No PO is sent and no vendor is emailed without approval. Use it when the owner says "what do I need to reorder," "am I going to run out," "restock," "we keep running out of filters," "draft a PO for my supplier," or "how much cash is sitting in the warehouse."OfficialData★ 31K
- tax-season-organizeranthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsPrepares tax-season materials for the owner's accountant, not tax advice. US federal tax; a non-US business gets its closed-books packet instead. Two modes: (1) quarterly estimated tax from YTD net income in the ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books); (2) year-end 1099 prep, scanning the ledger, PayPal, and Stripe for contractors paid over USD 600 into a 1099-NEC list with missing W-9 flags. Any tax request routes first to /tax-prep, which confirms the books are closed and reconciled before running this skill. Use this skill directly only when the owner says the period's books are already closed: "books are closed, now do the 1099s," "run the quarterly estimate off the closed numbers," or "just the contractor W-9 list."OfficialFinance★ 31K
