Cloned the script and ran it on a 12-row 3-category sales CSV under a temp HOME with pandas 3.0.3; it produced the documented JSON schema (metadata/findings/weak_areas/improvement_strategies), flagging 3 weak areas and 4 strategies. Compared report.json against a baseline manual analysis I wrote of the same CSV: both agree Home is the weakest category, but the skill adds a reproducible CV stability metric (69.9%, "High volatility") and four structured strategy playbooks the baseline lacked. Observed a real flaw: average_growth_rate came back +105.68% so "Revenue Growth" was NOT flagged despite every category declining internally, because the script shifts revenue row-by-row across mixed categories (a Home->Electronics jump inflates the mean). All referenced files fetch HTTP 200 and are substantial; index.js is an unimplemented TODO stub but is not part of the documented workflow.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 6/10
- Docs & honesty 4/5
What Business Analytics Reporter does
Reads a business sales or revenue CSV, auto-detects revenue/date/category columns, and computes growth, volatility (coefficient of variation), and bottom-quartile category metrics into a JSON report, then maps detected weak areas to templated improvement strategies. Triggers when the user asks to analyze sales data, generate a business performance report, or identify underperforming areas and recommend fixes. Ships a Python analysis script, an HTML report template, and business-framework/visualization reference docs.
How to install Business Analytics Reporter
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/ailabs-393/ai-labs-claude-skills.git /tmp/business-analytics-reporter-src
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/business-analytics-reporter-src/dist/skills/business-analytics-reporter ~/.claude/skills/business-analytics-reporter
# Requires Python 3 with pandas + numpy: pip install pandas numpy
# Optional for visualizations: pip install plotly
# Run the engine: python ~/.claude/skills/business-analytics-reporter/scripts/analyze_business_data.py your_data.csv report.json
# CSV should have revenue/sales, date, and (optional) category columns.
# index.js in the skill dir is an unimplemented stub and is not used; the Python script is the working mechanism.
Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/
(per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the Business Analytics Reporter skill free?
- Yes. The skill itself is free from ailabs-393/ai-labs-claude-skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
- Does Business Analytics Reporter work with Claude Code?
