What it does

Subscription Auditor is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Find the subscriptions you forgot you pay for — a tool-using agent audits statements and inboxes, prices the waste annually, and preps (never executes) the cancellations. Use when asked to audit my subscriptions, find recurring charges, what am I paying for, or help me cancel unused services. Produces the subscription inventory with keep/cancel/downgrade verdicts, the annual-waste number, and approval-gated cancellation prep.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/worked-example.md`).

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Email management. 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 to audit my subscriptions
  • Find recurring charges
  • What am I paying for
  • Help me cancel unused services

Example prompts

  • “/subscription-auditor”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Recurrence detection: same merchant at regular intervals ± a few days; catch the annuals (the expensive ambush) by scanning 13 months…
  2. Annualize everything: $12.99/mo reads as harmless; $156/yr across nine services reads as a holiday. Always print both.
  3. The evidence bar for "cancel": no usage signal + no user-claimed use + not on the keep list. One signal short → verdict is "confirm", not…
  4. Duplicates & overlaps: two streaming services with the same catalog niche, storage plans on three clouds, the family paying twice — the…
  5. Trial-trap scan: anything that started as a trial in the last 90 days gets its renewal date bolded.

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

Subscription Auditor loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 113 tokens; SKILL.md has 628 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~113
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.3k

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
Find the subscriptions you forgot you pay for — a tool-using agent audits statements and inboxes, prices the waste annually, and preps (never executes) the cancellations. Use when asked to audit my subscriptions, find recurring charges, what am I paying for, or help me cancel unused services. Produces the subscription inventory with keep/cancel/downgrade verdicts, the annual-waste number, and approval-gated cancellation prep.

Subscription Auditor Skill

Every card statement hides a museum of past enthusiasms billing monthly. This skill runs the audit an accountant would: inventory every recurring charge, price the waste annually (monthly numbers anesthetize), verdict each one — and stop exactly at the line where money moves. Cancellation is prepared, never performed.

What This Skill Produces

  • The inventory — every recurring charge: service, amount, cadence, last-used evidence, renewal date
  • The annual-waste number — the headline: what "unused + forgotten" costs per year
  • Verdicts — keep / cancel / downgrade / share-a-seat, each with the one-line case
  • Cancellation prep — per cancel-verdict: the how (portal path, email draft, phone script), the deadline before next billing, retention-offer guidance

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The data — statement exports (CSV/PDF), a receipts-email folder, or app-store subscription pages the agent can read
  • Usage signals — the user's honest read on what they still use; where available, last-login evidence
  • Household scope — just theirs, or family plans and duplicates across the household
  • The keep-regardless list — subscriptions that are load-bearing whatever the numbers say

Framework

  1. Recurrence detection: same merchant at regular intervals ± a few days; catch the annuals (the expensive ambush) by scanning 13 months back, not 3.
  2. Annualize everything: $12.99/mo reads as harmless; $156/yr across nine services reads as a holiday. Always print both.
  3. The evidence bar for "cancel": no usage signal + no user-claimed use + not on the keep list. One signal short → verdict is "confirm", not "cancel".
  4. Duplicates & overlaps: two streaming services with the same catalog niche, storage plans on three clouds, the family paying twice — the overlap table is often the biggest line.
  5. Trial-trap scan: anything that started as a trial in the last 90 days gets its renewal date bolded.

Output Format

The number: $[n]/year in cancel-verdict subscriptions.

Quality Checks

  • 13 months scanned — annuals caught
  • Every verdict cites its evidence; "confirm" used where evidence is one signal short
  • Both monthly and annual figures printed for every line
  • Cancellation prep includes the before-next-billing deadline per service
  • Money-moving actions: prepared only, per the Execution gate
Show full SKILL.md (266 more words)Show less

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not cancel-verdict on price alone — an expensive daily tool is the best line on the statement
  • Do not miss the family dimension — half of subscription waste is duplication between people
  • Do not present retention offers as wins by default — a 40% discount on an unused service is 60% waste
  • Do not touch anything financial without the gate below — this skill's authority ends at preparation

Execution

For tool-using agents with statement/inbox read access and (optionally) browser control. Without tools, run on user-pasted statements. Rules per SKILLSPEC.md §5.

Preconditions
  • The inventory + verdicts reviewed and explicitly approved by a human, service by service.
  • Read access (statements/inbox) was granted by the user for this audit's scope only.
  • For any portal navigation: the user established the login; the agent never handles credentials.
Allowed actions
  • Read the named statement exports / receipt folders to build the inventory.
  • Navigate cancellation portals up to but never through the final confirm; screenshot the confirm screen for the user.
  • Draft (never send) cancellation emails; prepare phone scripts.
  • Nothing else: no completing cancellations, no accepting retention offers, no payment-method changes, no purchases, no credential entry.
Verification
  • Per prepared cancellation: the confirm-screen screenshot + the renewal deadline it must beat.
  • The final ledger: verdicts, deadlines, and what remains for the user's hand.
Rollback
  • Preparation has nothing to roll back — that's the point of the gate.
  • Stop and ask a human if: a portal demands identity verification, a retention offer changes the economics, or any page requests payment or credentials.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Audit my subscriptions."
  • "Find recurring charges."
  • "What am I paying for?"
  • "Help me cancel unused services."
