Portfolio-level executive dashboard that rolls up close progress across multiple Numeric workspaces — completion rates, overdue counts, reviewer bottlenecks, and prioritized action items side-by-side. For CFOs, controllers, or close managers overseeing multiple entities.
Before You Begin
Use this skill when: you oversee 2+ entities and want a comparative rolled-up view. Use Close Pulse instead when: you want a deep operational view of a single workspace.
- Numeric MCP connected.
- Numeric Toolkit installed.
- Access to 2+ workspaces (use Close Pulse for single-workspace views).
- A close period that exists in each target workspace (flexible month/year matching handles slug differences).
How It Works
- Ask Claude for a portfolio view. Example prompts:
- "Cross-workspace close dashboard for March."
- "Which entities are behind?"
- "CFO dashboard across all workspaces."
- Claude lists all accessible workspaces — you multi-select which to include and Claude resolves the period per workspace (flexible month/year matching).
- Claude launches parallel sub-agents — one per workspace — to pull tasks, assignees, and statuses in parallel. Claude aggregates portfolio totals, per-entity rollups, assignee concentration, overdue list.
- Claude generates two deliverables: an HTML dashboard and a companion Excel workbook.
What You Get
HTML dashboard (Numeric's brand palette — violet, Inter font, light lavender cards):
- KPI cards: completion %, overdue count, active entities, rec status, JE status
- Entity completion bars ranked by progress
- Donut chart + task mix breakdown (recs / JEs / custom / flux)
- Preparer workload and reviewer concentration risk
- 8–10 prioritized action items with named owners and specific math ("Rene owns 62 tasks across 2 entities; engage or redistribute")
- Deadline timeline: overdue → next 3 days → rec wave

Troubleshooting
| Issue |
What to Check |
A workspace returns 0 tasks |
Skill falls back to per-type queries (rec, checklist, JE, flux). Verify the fallback actually ran. |
Wrong workspace routed |
set_workspace can mis-route. The skill verifies the returned workspace name vs expected and flags discrepancies. |
Period slug mismatch across entities |
Some use mar-2026, others 2026-03. The skill matches flexibly by month/year. |
Action items look generic |
Regenerate — they should name a person, cite counts, and include specific math. |
Missing entities in portfolio totals |
Confirm the workspace was in the selected list and that it has a period matching the target month. |
FAQ
- Can I filter workspaces by keyword? Yes — "all Connect workspaces" or multi-select from the list.
- Custom dashboard colors? Default is Numeric brand palette. Ask Claude to edit the skill to change colors.
- How many workspaces can it handle? Tested with 10+; sub-agents parallelize data pulls.
- Single-workspace deep view? Use Close Pulse instead — purpose-built for that.
