Finance: Board Metrics Pack Validation with Codex: SKILL.md Template
A production playbook for board metrics pack validation in finance operations using Codex: skill.md template, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Finance and founder teams preparing board materials
The problem
Finance and founder teams preparing board materials need board metrics pack validation to run repeatedly against metric exports, spreadsheets, CRM reports, finance models, and deck claims. In finance operations, the pain is not one good answer; it is repeatability, auditability, exception handling, and evidence that survives handoff.
Implementation path
Put the operating procedure in SKILL.md, keep examples beside the skill, attach metric exports, spreadsheets, CRM reports, finance models, and deck claims per run, and let Argo turn the folder into a repeatable Codex execution.
Tradeoffs and failure modes
A skill folder is less flexible than an open chat, but it gives the product a versioned workflow that can be tested and rolled back. For board metrics pack validation, the practical test is whether a second run can be debugged, retried, and consumed by a product without reading the raw agent transcript.
SKILL.md starter
# SKILL.md
You run board metrics pack validation using Codex.
Read only /skill/.argo/inputs.
Write artifacts to /skill/output/artifacts.
Return argo.result.v1 with body.type = "finance_board_metrics_pack".
Run this on Argo
