Company CFO (Monthly Financial Snapshot)

A monthly CFO workflow that pulls bank, payment, payroll and expense data, computes end-of-month cash via transaction sums, forecasts runway, and writes the leadership report.

Data & AnalyticsAdvanced★ 840⑂ 69AI score 8/10Last updated: Sep 4, 2026

What it does

Runs the full monthly financial close for a small company or agency.

  • Phase 1 — Pull raw data from bank (Mercury/Plaid), processor (Stripe/Paddle), payroll (Deel/Gusto/Plane) and expense tools (Ramp/Brex) into data/YYYY-MM/
  • Phase 2 — Categorize & reconcile with a trap checklist: cash-vs-credit double counting, internal transfers netting to zero, contractor currency mismatches, missing partner distributions
  • Phase 3 — Compute EOM cash using the transaction-sum method (never walkback from a balance snapshot), cross-checked against current balance
  • Phase 4 — Update a scenario projector: trailing 3 months + today + 6 forward month-ends, including the intramonth cash low
  • Phases 5–7 — write a 9-section snapshot report (TL;DR, cash in/out, payroll, distributions, MRR metrics, projections, recommended actions, open items), refresh memory notes, and ship via targeted git adds + PR
  • Four modes: monthly (default), weekly (15-minute cash pulse), scenario (ad-hoc modeling), pickup (resume prior run)

Who it's for

  • Founders / operating partners of bootstrapped SaaS or agencies who own the numbers themselves
  • Ops or finance leads who must deliver a consistent cash + runway report to leadership every month
  • Teams with API access to their bank, processor and payroll tools, willing to document methodology in a company-specific CLAUDE.md

Prerequisites: a COMPANY_CFO_ROOT repo with your methodology file and wired data sources. Out of scope: tax/accounting advice, fundraising financials, personal finance.

Example uses

  1. First-of-month close — "run the CFO monthly snapshot": pulls last month, reconciles, locks EOM cash, writes reports/monthly/2025-05.md, opens a PR.
  2. Monday cash pulse — one line: "Cash $X | Next payroll $Y on <date> | Next inflow $Z | Floor status: OK|WATCH|BREACH".
  3. Hiring scenario — "what if we hire a $150K/yr engineer in September?" modeled in the projector and saved to reports/scenarios/.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/company-cfo folder from the GitHub repo coreyhaines31/makerskills into my ~/.claude/skills/company-cfo/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/coreyhaines31/makerskills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r makerskills/skills/company-cfo ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal (Terminal on macOS, WSL or Git Bash on Windows).
  2. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/coreyhaines31/makerskills.git
    
  3. Copy the skill into your Claude skills folder:
    mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
    cp -r makerskills/skills/company-cfo ~/.claude/skills/
    
  4. Create your company finance repo:
    mkdir -p ~/code/company-cfo/{reports/monthly,reports/weekly,reports/scenarios,data,scenarios}
    cd ~/code/company-cfo && git init
    
  5. Write ~/code/company-cfo/CLAUDE.md describing your methodology (data sources, categorization rules, distribution mechanics) — use the skill's references/company-config-template.md as a starting point.
  6. Important: add data/, *.jsonl, *.env and .mcp.json to .gitignore so raw bank/payroll exports are never committed.
  7. Set the env var: add export COMPANY_CFO_ROOT=$HOME/code/company-cfo to ~/.zshrc, then restart your shell.
  8. Restart Claude Code and run /company-cfo or ask for "the monthly cash report". Any data source that isn't wired yet needs API access set up first.
