## What it does

The skill fires on `/performance-report` or when you ask for a marketing report, campaign results or a metrics summary. It starts by pinning down the report type — campaign, channel, content, overall marketing or a custom scope — then the time window and the data.

With marketing or product analytics connected, it pulls performance data on its own. Without a connection it asks you to paste the numbers; a spreadsheet, CSV or a few key figures all work. A comparison period and the intended audience are optional, and they decide whether you get an executive summary or a detailed analyst view.

The output follows a fixed shape: executive summary, a metrics table with on track / at risk / off track status, trend analysis, what worked, what needs improvement, insights, recommendations and next-period focus. Recommendations land in a 2x2 impact-versus-effort matrix, so high-impact low-effort items come first. A reference section defines the usual metrics for email, social and paid channels with typical benchmark ranges — useful when open rate or CTR drops and you need to know whether that is normal.

# Performance Report

> If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see [CONNECTORS.md](../../CONNECTORS.md).

Generate a marketing performance report with key metrics, trend analysis, insights, and optimization recommendations.

## Trigger

User runs `/performance-report` or asks for a marketing report, performance analysis, campaign results, or metrics summary.

## Inputs

1. **Report type** — determine which type of report the user needs:
   - **Campaign report** — performance of a specific campaign
   - **Channel report** — performance across a specific channel (email, social, paid, SEO, etc.)
   - **Content performance** — how content pieces are performing
   - **Overall marketing report** — cross-channel summary (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
   - **Custom** — user-defined scope

2. **Time period** — the reporting window (last week, last month, last quarter, custom date range)

3. **Data source**:
   - If ~~marketing analytics is connected, discover what accounts and platforms are available, then pull performance data automatically
   - If ~~product analytics is connected: pull performance data automatically
   - If not connected: ask the user to provide metrics. Prompt with: "Please paste or share your performance data. I can work with spreadsheets, CSV data, dashboard screenshots described in text, or just the key numbers."

4. **Comparison period** (optional) — prior period or year-over-year for trend context

5. **Stakeholder audience** (optional) — who will read this report (executive summary style vs. detailed analyst view)

## Report Structure

### 1. Executive Summary
- 2-3 sentence overview of performance in the period
- Headline metric with trend direction (up/down/flat vs. prior period)
- One key win and one area of concern

### 2. Key Metrics Dashboard

Present core metrics in a summary table:

| Metric | This Period | Prior Period | Change | Target | Status |
```
