Description
close-management is a skill from Anthropic's knowledge-work plugins, listed on skills.sh. It manages the month-end close process, with task sequencing, dependencies and status tracking. It is used when planning the close calendar, tracking close progress, or working out what happens on each day of the close. The skill's checklist is organised by day: the pre-close work in the last two or three business days of the month includes sending the close calendar and deadline reminders to contributors, confirming cut-off procedures with accounts payable, receivables, payroll and treasury, checking that the ERP, payroll and banking systems are processing normally, and completing a preliminary bank reconciliation. Close day one, the first business day after month-end, follows. The page states that the skill assists with close workflows but does not give financial advice, and that qualified financial professionals should review the close activities. It suits finance teams that run a monthly close and want a consistent, ordered checklist.…
