What it does

When you want to model personal financial scenarios, house purchase + rental income (ADU, bedroom rentals, house-hacking), renovation budgets, monthly cash flow, big-purchase decisions, savings/investment what-ifs for a household. Ships with a house scenario template; other scenarios (refi, car, education, retirement, side income) slot in as templates. Outputs markdown scenario comparison tables. Saves scenarios to ~/Documents/personal-cfo/ with an index in ~/.config/makerskills/personal-cfo/archive/. Not for company books or monthly reporting (that's company-cfo). Composes with decide, deep-research (rental comps, rates), business-brainstorm, second-brain. Triggers on \"/personal-cfo,\" \"model this scenario,\" \"house math,\" \"rental forecast,\" \"monthly cash flow,\" \"what if I rent out the ADU,\" \"compare these housing scenarios,\" \"should we buy this house,\" \"house-hack math,\" \"renovation budget.\

/personal-cfo, Personal financial scenario modeling

This skill is for a household (you + partner): housing decisions, monthly cash flow, big purchases, scenario what-ifs. Pair it with a business-books CFO skill if you also run one for a company, the DNA is the same, the domain is different.

Step 1, Pick the scenario type

InvocationTypeWhat it models
/personal-cfo house (default for now)houseBuy a house + rental income scenarios (ADU / bedrooms / combinations) + renovations + monthly cash flow
/personal-cfo refirefiRefinancing scenarios
/personal-cfo cash-flowcash-flowGeneric monthly cash flow (income, expenses, savings rate)
/personal-cfo big-purchasebig-purchaseShould we buy X (car, education, equipment), cash vs finance vs lease comparisons
/personal-cfo side-incomeside-incomeAdding a side income stream, break-even, tax implications
/personal-cfo savings-what-ifsavings-what-ifWhat if we put $X into Y for N years, index funds, real estate, etc.

For v0.1, only the house template is fleshed out. Others are sketched in references/templates/ as stubs.

Step 2, Gather inputs

Ask in a structured batch. For house mode, see references/templates/house.md for the full input questionnaire. Core fields:

Property

  • Purchase price
  • Down payment (% or $)
  • Mortgage rate + term (years)
  • Property taxes (annual)
  • HOA (monthly, if any)
  • Homeowner's insurance (monthly)
  • Closing costs (estimate)

Renovations / repairs

  • Day-1 renovations (line items with estimates, kitchen, bath, ADU buildout, etc.)
  • Year-1 expected repairs
  • Annual maintenance budget (rule of thumb: 1% of purchase price)
