## What it does

The skill walks the agent through seven steps: clarify the business context, collect the data sources, inspect structure and quality, compute period-over-period changes, spot trends and outliers, then assemble the dashboard. Every metric gets tied to a business outcome instead of sitting on its own.

Three reference files do the heavy lifting. `references/analysis-coverage.md` lists accepted inputs and the analysis types per domain — financial, sales and marketing, operations, customer. `references/output-template.md` holds the Markdown dashboard template, and `references/best-practices.md` covers reporting principles plus a do-and-don't list for charts. Placeholders in the template are meant to be replaced with real values.

No API key or extra library is needed, but the output is only as good as the data you feed it. No dates means no trend analysis. No segments means no cohort work. Mixed date formats in a single column are the usual failure point — the discovery step flags them, and period comparisons on that column stop making sense until you normalise the dates first.

## Requirements
- Works with: Google Workspace

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add OneWave-AI/claude-skills --skill executive-dashboard-generator -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add OneWave-AI/claude-skills --skill executive-dashboard-generator -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add OneWave-AI/claude-skills --skill executive-dashboard-generator -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install OneWave-AI/claude-skills executive-dashboard-generator
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add OneWave-AI/claude-skills --skill executive-dashboard-generator -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/OneWave-AI/claude-skills --path executive-dashboard-generator
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add OneWave-AI/claude-skills --skill executive-dashboard-generator -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/OneWave-AI/claude-skills/tree/HEAD/executive-dashboard-generator/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- build a leadership report from a CSV export
- compute period-over-period metric changes
- flag outliers and anomalies in a sales table
- pick chart types that fit on one screen
- turn numbers into recommendations and risk flags

## Example prompts
- Build an executive dashboard from `sales_q3.csv` with metrics, trends and recommendations
- Turn this Google Sheets export into a board report
- Analyse the customer data and tell me what to do about churn

# Executive Dashboard Generator

Turn raw data into executive-ready insights with visualizations and recommendations.

## Contents

- `references/analysis-coverage.md` — supported data inputs and analysis types per domain (financial, sales/marketing, operations, customer).
- `references/output-template.md` — the full Markdown dashboard template to populate.
- `references/best-practices.md` — reporting principles, visualization do/don't, trigger phrases, example request.

## Workflow

1. Clarify business context and collect the data sources (files, Sheets links, query output). See `references/analysis-coverage.md` for accepted inputs and the analysis types to run per domain.
2. Discover the data: identify structure, date ranges, granularity, key metrics and dimensions, and any data quality issues. Map relationships across datasets.
3. Analyze: calculate period-over-period changes, identify trends and patterns, flag outliers and anomalies, run cohort analysis, and set benchmarks and targets.
4. Generate insights: synthesize findings into key messages, prioritize by business impact, connect each metric to a business outcome, and develop concrete action recommendations and risk/opportunity flags.
5. Choose visualizations: select chart types built for executive readability and maintain a clear visual hierarchy. See `references/best-practices.md` for the visualization do/don't list.
6. Assemble the report using the structure in `references/output-template.md`. Replace every placeholder with real values; never ship a template with bracketed placeholders left in.
7. Prioritize recommendations and include scenario planning and a risk assessment, then deliver the dashboard.

Lead with insights over raw numbers, and answer "So what?" and "What should we do?" Apply the reporting principles in `references/best-practices.md`.
