ad-managerThe ads consultant that becomes an ads agent. Reads paid-ad performance natively through the TikTok Ads connector, or via a build-connector Zapier connection for other ad platforms, explains in plain English what is working and what is burning money, recommends budget, targeting, and creative changes with the dollar impact of each, drafts new ad copy in the owner's voice plus Canva creative briefs, and — only after an explicit yes — executes the approved changes in the ad account. Works from exported CSV reports when nothing is connected, the normal starting point. Use this whenever the owner talks about ads or ad spend at all, including "are my ads working," "what's my ROI on ads," "I'm spending money on Facebook and I don't know what I'm getting," "should I turn this campaign off," "my cost per lead is going up," "write me a new ad," "who should I be targeting," or "the ad guy quit."

ap-processorWorks the bill pile end to end: reads bills and vendor statements out of the AP inbox or from uploaded PDFs and phone photos, pulls out vendor, amount, due date, and line detail, codes each one to the right account and job, matches it against the purchase order and the receiving ticket, then stages the entries and a proposed payment run in QuickBooks, Xero, or NetSuite for the owner to approve in one pass. Nothing is entered and nothing is paid without an explicit yes. Reach for this whenever bills, vendor invoices, or paying people comes up — including "what do I owe," "the bills are piling up," "pull the invoices out of my email and into QuickBooks," "code these for me," "who needs to get paid this week," "did we get billed twice," or when the owner forwards a supplier invoice with no message at all. Use it before cash-flow-snapshot or month-end-prep so those run on real payables instead of a guess.

brand-styleSets and updates the owner's brand look and output preferences, which every page and document the plugin produces then follows automatically. Captures the brand from a pasted website link or a plain-words description — never a hex code, color picker, or upload — previews it on a sample page, asks how they want their outputs delivered (visual artifacts, Word docs, markdown, Notion pages, Canva Docs, or best-for-the-skill), and saves both to the business profile. Runs inside smb-onboard on first setup and stands alone forever after. Use when the owner says "update my brand," "we rebranded," "change my colors," "make the reports match our new look," "change how you give me reports," "I want Word docs instead," or anything about the look or format of what the plugin hands them.

build-agentTurns a task the owner keeps doing by hand into a named, reusable skill they can trigger by name or put on a schedule. Watches them do it once or listens to them describe it, works out what varies and what stays fixed, writes the skill with approval checkpoints in the right places, registers it with the router, and shares it with the team. This is how a business gets a workflow nobody shipped for them. Use this whenever the owner describes something repetitive they wish were automatic — including phrasings like "I do this every week," "can you remember how to do this," "make this a thing I can just ask for," "build me an agent," "automate this for me," "turn this into a workflow," or "I want this to happen every Monday." Reach for it when they describe a routine, even without asking for automation.

build-connectorGets Claude talking to a tool nobody built an official connector for. Works out what the system is, checks the Claude connector directory for an existing connector first, and when there isn't one connects the tool through Zapier — never by hand-building against a raw API — with credentials handled safely and approval gates on anything that writes. This is what turns "my ERP isn't supported" into an afternoon. Use this whenever the owner names a tool that isn't connected — including phrasings like "can you connect to my," "make my tools talk to each other," "there's no API for this," "pull data out of my field service software," "I use ServiceTrade and it's not on the list," or "is there any way to get at this data." Reach for it whenever an unsupported system is blocking something else.

business-pulseProduces a one-page cross-functional business snapshot for SMB owners — cash position (the ledger: MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books), sales trend (PayPal/Square/Stripe), pipeline movement (HubSpot), this week's commitments (Calendar), urgent watch-list items (Gmail or M365, Slack), and the single most important thing needing attention today. Proactively tries every available connector and gracefully scopes to whatever is connected — one connector gives a partial pulse; the full stack gives the full picture. Trigger when the user asks how the business is doing, wants a snapshot, a daily brief, a Friday recap, or says anything like "what am I missing" or "catch me up on the business." A start-of-week briefing routes to /monday-brief, which runs this skill as its first link.

canva-creatorTakes an approved content brief and executes a campaign end-to-end: builds the posting calendar, generates Canva designs for social posts, drafts caption and email copy, and stages social sends in HubSpot. Canva is used for social posts only (Instagram, Facebook, X, LinkedIn) — email content is drafted as plain text and surfaced inline for the owner to send from their own tool. Every step requires explicit owner approval. This is the one-shot campaign executor: a finished brief goes in, a complete campaign comes out. Use when the owner hands off an approved brief or points at one — "run this brief," "execute the campaign," "turn this brief into posts," "build the campaign from the plan we approved." For day-to-day posting with no brief — "I need to post more," "what should we post" — use social-content-engine instead; it owns the standing calendar.

close-monthCloses the books and turns them into a decision as a three-link chain — month-end-prep reconciles the ledger against every connected payment processor and writes the P&L narrative, cash-flow-snapshot then refreshes the 30/60/90-day forecast off the newly closed numbers rather than raw ones, and report-builder publishes and distributes the close packet. Requires a ledger (MYOB, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books) and uses Gusto, PayPal, Ramp, Shopify, Square, and Stripe when connected, falling back to statement or CSV uploads. Trigger on "close the month," "month-end," "close the books," "reconcile," "send the close packet to my accountant," or when the owner asks why revenue or margin moved last month. An owner who wants only the reconciliation and its flags, with no forecast refresh and no packet distribution, routes to month-end-prep directly.
