What it does

Cash Flow Statement is an agent skill from OctagonAI/skills. Retrieve real-time or historical cash flow statement data including Net Income, Operating Cash Flow, Investing Cash Flow, Financing Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow, and Cash Position for public companies. Use when analyzing cash generation, capital allocation, or liquidity trends.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `marketplace.json` and `references/interpreting-results.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Claude skills for agentic financial research by Octagon. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Analyzing cash generation
Capital allocation
Liquidity trends

Example prompts

“/cash-flow-statement”

Workflow steps

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

Operating cash flow consistency: Track OCF relative to Net Income
Financing outflows: Analyze buybacks and dividends
Free cash flow capacity: Assess cash generation strength
Capital expenditure trends: Derive from OCF minus FCF
Cash position trajectory: Monitor ending cash balance

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51e938c. 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 (its code samples are json).
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

Cash Flow Statement loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 382 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~2.6k

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.

Cash Flow Statement

Retrieve real-time or historical cash flow statement data for public companies using Octagon MCP.

Prerequisites

Ensure Octagon MCP is configured in your AI agent (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, etc.). See references/mcp-setup.md for installation instructions.

Query Format

Analysis Tips

Cash Conversion Quality

Cash Conversion = Operating Cash Flow / Net Income

Above 1.0 = high quality earnings
Consistently below 1.0 = potential concerns

Capex Calculation

Capital Expenditures = Operating Cash Flow - Free Cash Flow

Example: $111.48B - $98.77B = $12.71B capex

Shareholder Returns

Financing outflows typically include:

Share repurchases (buybacks)
Dividend payments
Debt repayments

Three-Statement Linkage

Net Income flows from Income Statement
Cash at End links to Balance Sheet
Changes explain Balance Sheet movements

Cash Flow Sustainability

Strong indicators:

OCF consistently > Net Income
FCF covers dividends and buybacks
Positive ending cash trend

Warning signs:

OCF declining while income grows
FCF negative with continued buybacks
Cash position eroding

Follow-up Queries

Based on results, suggest deeper analysis:

"Break down [COMPANY]'s financing cash flow between buybacks, dividends, and debt activity"
"What is [COMPANY]'s capital expenditure trend and guidance for next year?"
"Compare [COMPANY]'s free cash flow yield to [PEER1] and [PEER2]"
"Analyze [COMPANY]'s working capital changes driving operating cash flow"
