/ccc-smb-ops — Small-business operations hub
Load ONE skill. Get the entire back-office operations domain for a small business. 6 skills in one — plain-language checklists and templates for the owner who runs the shop, not the accountant.
Integration note: These skills are tool-agnostic. Everything works from a plain bank/card CSV export, an invoice list, or a typed-out set of numbers — no accounting or CRM software required. They organize and forecast; they do not move money, file taxes, or give regulated financial advice.
Sub-Skills
| # | Skill | Focus |
|---|
| 1 | cash-flow-forecast | 13-week rolling cash-flow forecast from bank + AR/AP; find the cash trough |
| 2 | invoicing-ar | Generate clean invoices; chase unpaid ones with a dunning ladder + AR aging |
| 3 | payroll-planning | Plan each run, tax-withholding checklist, fully-loaded headcount cost model |
| 4 | crm-hygiene | Dedup contacts, sweep stale leads, standardize fields, review the pipeline |
| 5 | expense-tracking | Categorize spend, receipt-capture workflow, budget vs. actual |
| 6 | weekly-owner-brief | Monday one-pager: cash, AR aging, pipeline, and the top 3 actions |
Routing Matrix
| Your Intent | Route To |
|---|
| "Will I make payroll?" / "Cash forecast" / "Runway" | cash-flow-forecast |
| "Send an invoice" / "Chase who owes me" / "Follow up on unpaid" | invoicing-ar |
| "Run payroll" / "What will a hire cost" / "Withholding" | payroll-planning |
| "Clean up my contacts" / "Dead leads" / "Pipeline review" | crm-hygiene |
| "Where did the money go" / "Categorize expenses" / "Budget vs actual" | expense-tracking |
| "Give me the Monday picture" / "Owner update" / "Weekly summary" | weekly-owner-brief |
Protocol
- Confirm what records the owner has on hand (bank export, invoice list, receipts, contact list) before routing — everything works from a CSV or a typed list.
- Route to the specialist sub-skill for the job; each delivers a checklist or fill-in template.
weekly-owner-brief runs every Monday and pulls from the other five — start there when the owner just wants "the picture."- Keep cash, AR, and spending reconciled across skills — if two disagree, find the discrepancy before acting.
- Never move money, send messages, or file anything automatically — deliver the plan for the owner to approve.
