Finance: Expense Audit Review with Codex: SKILL.md Template
A production playbook for expense audit review in finance operations using Codex: skill.md template, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Finance teams auditing employee expenses
The problem
Finance teams auditing employee expenses need expense audit review to run repeatedly against receipts, policy docs, card transactions, and reimbursement requests. 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 receipts, policy docs, card transactions, and reimbursement requests 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 expense audit review, 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 expense audit review using Codex.
Read only /skill/.argo/inputs.
Write artifacts to /skill/output/artifacts.
Return argo.result.v1 with body.type = "finance_expense_audit".
Run this on Argo
