What it does
Late Invoice Escalation is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Collect overdue invoices with a graduated escalation ladder — friendly nudge to firm notice to work-stop to final demand, each with send-ready wording and timing, plus the prevention terms that stop the next one. Use when asked my client hasn't paid me, write a payment reminder email, invoice is 60 days overdue what do I do, or client is ghosting my invoices. Produces the situation read, the escalation ladder with dates and verbatim messages, the work-stop decision point, and the payment terms that prevent reruns.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Documents & Office, covering Forms and invoices. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked my client hasnt paid me
- Write a payment reminder email
- Invoice is 60 days overdue what do I do
- Client is ghosting my invoices
Example prompts
- “/late-invoice-escalation”

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Late Invoice Escalation loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 136 tokens; SKILL.md has 766 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Collect overdue invoices with a graduated escalation ladder — friendly nudge to firm notice to work-stop to final demand, each with send-ready wording and timing, plus the prevention terms that stop the next one. Use when asked my client hasn't paid me, write a payment reminder email, invoice is 60 days overdue what do I do, or client is ghosting my invoices. Produces the situation read, the escalation ladder with dates and verbatim messages, the work-stop decision point, and the payment terms that prevent reruns.
Late Invoice Escalation Skill
Most late invoices are disorganization, not theft — which is why the ladder starts friendly and blames the invoice, not the client. But freelancers fail at both ends: waiting four months of "gentle bumps" that teach the client lateness is free, or going nuclear at day 35 and torching a recoverable relationship. This skill runs the graduated ladder — each rung dated, worded, and slightly firmer — with the two real decision points marked: when work stops, and when the relationship is already gone and only the money remains.
What This Skill Produces
- The situation read — likely-disorganized vs. cash-crunched vs. disputing vs. ghosting, from the evidence
- The escalation ladder — dated rungs with verbatim send-ready messages, each escalating one notch
- The decision points — when ongoing work pauses, when it's final-demand time, and what the post-relationship options actually are
- The prevention terms — deposits, milestones, late fees, and stop-work clauses for every future agreement
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- Invoice facts — amount, issue date, terms (net-15/30), days overdue, and whether a contract/PO backs it
- The trail so far — reminders sent, any client responses (a "sorry, next week!" and dead silence are different ladders)
- Relationship state — ongoing work happening now? future work wanted? (leverage and tone both change)
- The client's shape — enterprise AP department (slow by process — chase the process), small business (chase the person), or a known cash-crisis (a payment plan beats a write-off)
Framework: The Ladder Rules
- Rung 1 (due +3–7 days), assume the best: "Just flagging this may have slipped through — invoice #N for $X was due [date], reattached for convenience." Blames the invoice's journey, not the human. Most cases end here.
- Rung 2 (+14), add specificity and a question: "Following up on invoice #N, now two weeks past due. Can you confirm when payment will be processed?" A direct question demands an answer; silence after it is information.
- Rung 3 (+30), firm with consequence preview: "Invoice #N is 30 days past due. Per our terms [cite late-fee clause if it exists]. I need payment or a payment date by [specific date] — after that I'll need to pause work in progress." Only preview consequences you'll execute.
- The work-stop (the real leverage, use it once): ongoing work pauses when promised dates pass — stated as procedure, not anger: "Pausing work until the account is current; happy to resume immediately on payment." Never threaten it twice — the second unexecuted threat marks every future rung as bluff.
- Rung 4 (+45–60), final demand, relationship already spent: total owed, hard deadline (7–10 days), and the named next step — collections agency, small-claims filing (designed for exactly these amounts, no lawyer needed), or a demand letter. At this point being collectable beats being liked; a genuine cash-crisis client gets offered a written payment plan with dates once instead.

The Read
[Which failure mode the evidence suggests · what that changes about pace and tone]
The Ladder
| Rung | Date to send | Channel | Message (verbatim) |
|---|---|---|---|
| [Each message ready to paste · rungs already burned marked done] |
Decision Points
Work-stop: [trigger date and exact wording] · Final demand: [date, total, named next step] · Payment-plan branch: [if cash-crisis, the once-only offer]
Prevention (every future client)
Deposit [%] before work starts · milestone billing over monthly-in-arrears · late-fee clause [% per month, where lawful] · stop-work clause · for enterprise: PO + AP contact captured before work begins
Late-fee enforceability, demand-letter form, and small-claims limits vary by jurisdiction — verify locally; for large amounts or a contract dispute, a lawyer's letter early can be cheaper than months of the ladder.
Quality Checks
- Every rung has a date and verbatim text — a ladder without dates is a mood
- Rung 1 is genuinely warm — no passive-aggressive garnish
- Consequences are previewed exactly one rung before execution, and executed on schedule
- The work-stop is stated as procedure, not punishment
- Prevention terms appear — the best collection is the deposit you took up front
Anti-Patterns
- Do not send rung-1 wording six times — repetition without escalation teaches that lateness is free
- Do not threaten what you won't execute — one hollow threat converts the whole ladder to noise
- Do not vent in writing — every message should read fine attached to a small-claims filing, because it might be
- Do not keep delivering new work into an unpaid account past the stop trigger
- Do not skip the read — an enterprise AP maze, a cash crisis, and a ghost need different ladders, not one angrier email
Example Trigger Phrases
- "My client hasn't paid me."
- "Write a payment reminder email."
- "Send a final demand for this invoice."
- "Should I stop work until they pay?"
