What it does

Executive Summary Generator is an agent skill from nimrodfisher/data-analytics-skills. Create concise executive summaries from detailed analysis. Use when preparing board decks, executive briefings, or condensing complex analysis into decision-ready formats for senior audiences.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `assets/executive_summary_template.md`, `references/executive_communication.md` and `references/pyramid_principle_guide.md`).

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Summarization and OKRs and executive reporting. The repository describes itself as: A comprehensive list of Claude & Codex skills for a wide range of data analytics tasks. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Preparing board decks
  • Executive briefings
  • Condensing complex analysis into decision-ready formats for senior audiences

Example prompts

  • “/executive-summary-generator”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9449d36. 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

Executive Summary Generator loads about 699 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 357 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~699
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.4k

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
Create concise executive summaries from detailed analysis. Use when preparing board decks, executive briefings, or condensing complex analysis into decision-ready formats for senior audiences.

Executive Summary Generator

When to use

  • A detailed analysis needs to be condensed to 1–2 pages for a senior audience
  • An executive asks "what's the bottom line?" and a full report won't be read
  • Preparing a board deck section that summarises a longer analytical workstream
  • A recurring report needs to lead with the key message rather than data tables
  • A decision needs to be made by end of day and the executive has 10 minutes

Process

  1. Extract the top 3–5 insights — go through the full analysis and identify only the findings that change or reinforce a decision. Filter out interesting-but-not-actionable findings. If you have more than 5 insights, you haven't prioritised yet.
  2. Quantify the business impact of each insight — every insight must carry a number: revenue at risk, cost saving, users affected, time to payback. Vague impact ("significant") does not belong in an executive summary. See references/executive_communication.md.
  3. Write a one-paragraph situation statement — explain why this analysis was done, what the question was, and why the timing matters. One paragraph, no jargon.
  4. Apply the pyramid principle — lead each insight with the conclusion ("Mobile churn is causing $800K ARR loss"), then the evidence, then the supporting detail. Never bury the finding at the end of a paragraph.
  5. State recommendations as specific actions — each recommendation must name what to do, who is responsible, what the expected outcome is, and by when. "Improve the app" is not a recommendation.
  6. Write the decision block — the final section names the explicit decision or approval the executive needs to give, the investment or resource required, the expected return, and the deadline. Use assets/executive_summary_template.md to assemble the document.

Inputs the skill needs

  • The full analysis or report to be summarised
  • Knowledge of the executive audience (role, priorities, decisions they're responsible for)
  • Quantified business impact for each major finding
  • Recommended actions already identified
  • Format constraints (one page, two pages, specific slide count)

Output

  • references/pyramid_principle_guide.md — answer-first structure, BLUF writing, how to edit a bottom-up draft into top-down
  • references/executive_communication.md — adapting tone, removing jargon, quantifying everything, avoiding hedge language
  • assets/executive_summary_template.md — 1–2 page template: situation, key insights (with impact), recommendations (with outcomes), decision needed
