Track, analyze, and report on Key Performance Indicators for any business.

What It Does

When activated, this skill helps you:

• Define and categorize KPIs (revenue, ops, marketing, customer success)
• Set targets and thresholds (green/yellow/red)
• Generate weekly/monthly KPI reports in markdown
• Flag KPIs that are off-track with root cause prompts
• Store historical data in a simple JSON file for trend analysis

Usage

Tell your agent: "Track these KPIs" or "Give me a KPI report" or "Which metrics are off track?"

Setup

Create kpi-config.json in your workspace:

{
  "kpis": [
    {
      "name": "Monthly Recurring Revenue",
      "category": "revenue",
      "unit": "$",
      "target": 50000,
      "redBelow": 35000,
      "yellowBelow": 45000
    },
    {
      "name": "Customer Churn Rate",
      "category": "customer",
      "unit": "%",
      "target": 3,
      "redAbove": 7,
      "yellowAbove": 5
    }
  ]
}

Recording Data

Say: "Record MRR at $42,000 for this week"

The agent stores entries in kpi-data.json:

{
  "entries": [
    { "kpi": "Monthly Recurring Revenue", "value": 42000, "date": "2026-02-13", "note": "Post-launch week" }
  ]
}

Reports

Say: "KPI report" and the agent generates a formatted status board:

📊 KPI Report — Week of Feb 10, 2026
🟢 Monthly Recurring Revenue: $48,200 (target: $50,000) — 96.4%
🔴 Customer Churn Rate: 8.1% (target: 3%) — needs attention
🟡 Lead Conversion Rate: 11% (target: 15%) — trending up from 9%
⚠️ Action needed on 1 red, 1 yellow KPI

Trend Analysis

Say: "Show MRR trend" — the agent reads historical entries and summarizes direction, velocity, and whether you'll hit target at current pace.

How the Agent Should Behave

• Read kpi-config.json for KPI definitions
• Read/write kpi-data.json for historical values
• When asked for a report: calculate status for each KPI, format with color indicators
• When a KPI is red: proactively suggest investigation areas
• When recording: validate the value makes sense (e.g., churn can't be negative)

File Locations

• Config: kpi-config.json (workspace root or custom path)
• Data: kpi-data.json (same directory as config)
• Reports: generated on-demand, optionally saved to reports/kpi-YYYY-MM-DD.md

Pro Tip

Pair this with a cron job to generate weekly KPI reports automatically. For deeper business intelligence and pre-built industry KPI templates, check out AfrexAI Context Packs — drop-in configurations that include KPI frameworks for 10+ industries.
