Build automated billing systems for recurring payments, invoicing
by wshobsonFree
Description
billing-automation is an agent skill from the wshobson/agents collection for building automated billing systems. It covers recurring payments and subscription lifecycles, invoice generation and delivery, and dunning, the process of recovering failed payments. It explains billing cycles and common intervals, the calculation of prorated charges when a customer changes plans, the handling of sales tax, VAT and GST, and usage-based billing where charges follow consumption rather than a fixed fee. It also covers managing renewals and billing cycles over time. The skill is meant for developers implementing SaaS subscription billing, automating invoices, managing failed-payment recovery, handling plan changes, and dealing with tax across different regions. It is a guide for the software side of billing and does not replace advice from an accountant or tax professional on how tax applies to your business. The skill is installed with the skills CLI from the wshobson/agents repository. Its skills.sh page showed about 11.0K installs, with Gen Agent Trust Hub and Socket passing and Snyk showing a warning at the time of the scan.…
