name: algforce-report description: Analyze user-provided data or a report topic, prepare an AlgForce report outline, and create and track the report through the AlgForce MCP tools. Use when a user asks for an AlgForce data analysis report or wants to track one.

AlgForce Data Analysis Reports

Use the current client's file-reading, computation, and web-search capabilities to complete the analysis. AlgForce generates reports from the resulting outline. This Skill orchestrates only two MCP tools: create_report and get_report.

These instructions are written in English. User-facing replies and report content should follow the user's requested language; the instruction language does not require English report content.

Tool Contract

Tool	Parameters	Result
create_report	Required outline: a nonempty Markdown string following the outline reference. Optional locale: a string, default zh-CN.	job_id, status: "running", report_url, and poll_after_seconds.
get_report	Required job_id: the string returned by creation.	status, stage, page counts, report_url, and completion or failure details.

Create using {"outline":"<complete Markdown following references/outline-format.md>","locale":"en"}. The outline text in this example is a placeholder: replace it with the complete analyzed report outline. Query using {"job_id":"<returned job_id>"} and replace the placeholder with the actual returned value.

A creation result has the form {"job_id":"<job UUID>","status":"running","report_url":"<actual preview URL>","poll_after_seconds":15}. Status results also include operation, stage, completed_pages, pages_started, total_pages, report_id, share_url, error_code, and error_message; some values can be null. poll_after_seconds is null after the job ends. Only completed proves success; failed ends tracking with an error. Do not call an editing tool: none is exposed by this connector.

Invalid parameters return a tool error with error_code: "INVALID_ARGUMENT" and message. Correct the parameters before retrying. After a creation timeout, use the known job ID if one was returned; if no ID was received, explain that submission is uncertain and ask before creating another job.

Analysis and Outline

1. Determine the audience, business question, time range, metrics, grouping, and intended decision from the user's goal. Ask when an essential metric definition is missing; make explicit assumptions for other details when supported by the files. If the user requests analysis only, deliver the analysis without calling the report creation tool.
2. Read user-uploaded files through the current client. Check field meanings, record grain, time ranges, units, missing values, and duplicates. Use available computation tools for aggregation, comparisons, trends, and relevant group analysis. Verify the baseline, denominator, and sample scope for year-over-year or period-over-period calculations. Search the web only when external context is needed, and record sources and dates. Explain data limitations rather than inventing values or causes.
3. Build a narrative from question and definitions to key findings, evidence and possible causes, and recommendations. Include verified metrics, units, time ranges, and aggregated chart data in outline; do not upload raw detail files. Put sources, definitions, and uncertainty on the relevant outline pages. No separate evidence field is needed.
4. Before creating a report, write the complete outline according to references/outline-format.md and check its format, numbers, and charts. The report name is extracted automatically from the outline's # Main title. Briefly explain the analysis approach and planned report if useful. When the user has already requested report creation, do not add a separate outline approval step.

Creation and Tracking

1. Use the workspace selected on the OAuth consent page for the current connection. Tool calls do not require workspace_id. If the connection is unauthorized, ask the user to connect AlgForce in the client and select a workspace. Switching workspaces requires authorization again. Do not ask users to send tokens or workspace IDs in the conversation.
2. Call create_report with the complete outline and, when needed, locale (default: zh-CN). Each call submits a new job; do not automatically retry creation. Save the returned job_id and immediately show the returned report_url as a "View report" link. If a callable built-in browser tool is available, open this URL before the first get_report call and save the tab identifier; do not wait until completion to open it. If no such tool exists or opening fails, explain this and continue tracking the job. AlgForce automatically creates a public read-only share when generation completes; users do not need to share manually in the frontend. The preview's Edit button separately verifies the signed-in account and editing permissions.
3. Query status with get_report({"job_id":"..."}). Within the client's available execution time, poll serially using the returned poll_after_seconds, or approximately 15 seconds if absent. Do not query the same job concurrently. Report actual progress using stage, completed_pages, pages_started, and total_pages; do not invent percentages. After every get_report result, update the user-visible progress and refresh the same built-in browser tab, keeping the returned preview link in the update. If the client cannot keep waiting, give the user the job_id and preview link. The page updates its own progress; resume by querying the existing job next time rather than creating the same report again.
4. Check status and report_url after each get_report result. When status is completed, stop polling immediately, present the link using the rules below. Do not continue saying that report generation is pending. When status is failed, explain error_code and error_message; submit a new job only if regeneration is needed after the cause has been addressed. Status queries do not modify the job.

Presenting Reports in the Client

• Show the report entry point in a user-visible reply in WorkBuddy or another client. Do not leave the link only in tool results, internal reasoning, or JSON.
• Apply the same presentation rules at creation, during generation, and after completion. Consistently display the returned report_url as a "View report" link. Do not replace the original preview entry point with share_url, generated HTML, or a local file after completion.
• After creation, discover and use the built-in browser or web-preview tools actually available in the current client to open the returned report_url in the results area. Save the tab or page identifier after the first successful open. Refresh or update that same page after every get_report result, including completion. Do not repeatedly create tabs or substitute system-browser commands.
• Open and refresh internally only when the client provides the required tools. Follow their actual schemas; do not invent tool names or private URL schemes. If no callable built-in browser tool exists or execution fails, explain this and retain a clickable link. WorkBuddy users can right-click the link and choose the option to open it internally, or set Settings > General > Link opening behavior to always use the built-in browser. These settings determine where clicked links open; they do not let MCP automatically open tabs.
• The page automatically updates generated report content every 5 seconds, independently of Agent polling. It shows a waiting message before the first page is generated. Do not describe a running report as completed.
• Prefer report_url, which includes the editing entry point. share_url is the underlying read-only /share/iframe/<share_id>?b=report share address; provide it separately only when the user requests sharing or embedding. Use the exact returned URL without inserting spaces or rewriting it.
• When get_report returns a nonempty HTTP/HTTPS report_url, use the original returned URL in a Markdown link. At completion, reply with the equivalent of "Report generated: [View report](actual report_url)" in the user's language. If the report title is known, it may be used as the link label. actual report_url is an explanatory placeholder and must be replaced with the real returned URL.
• If the backend returns a valid report_url during generation, include "[View report](actual report_url)" in progress updates and state that generation is still in progress. Claim completion only when status is completed; the existence of a link does not prove completion.
• If report_url is empty, show only actual progress. Do not construct a link from job_id, report_id, or a domain. If the job has completed without a link, explain that the report is complete but the service did not return an opening link, retain the job ID for investigation, and stop waiting for generation.
• Claim that the report has opened inside the client only after actually calling the built-in browser tool and confirming success. If no call was made or it failed, provide the clickable entry point and explain that the user needs to open it; do not claim automatic display.

Editing Through the Frontend

MCP does not provide a report editing tool. If the user requests changes to an existing report, provide its returned report_url and direct them to the preview's Edit button. The frontend verifies the signed-in account and editing permissions before opening the editor. Do not invent an editing tool or silently create a replacement report. Create a new report only when the user requests a separate report.

Error Recovery

• NOT_FOUND: distinguish job_id from report_id, then check the current user's access and workspace permissions.
• Authorization failure: guide the user to reconnect AlgForce in the current client. Do not request or display tokens.
• Job failure or timeout: query the existing job_id first to confirm its final status. Submit a new creation job only after failure is confirmed and its cause has been addressed.

AlgForce Report Outline Format

Use this reference to prepare create_report.outline. It is based on the project's report Skill outline format and Default layout specifications. It defines page syntax and available layouts, rather than prescribing a fixed number or sequence of analysis pages. Choose pages according to the report goal, audience, and verified data.

Document and Page Syntax

Start the outline with a # main title, followed by a nonempty > subtitle and a <!-- meta ... --> block. Start each page with a ## heading and separate pages with ---. Set meta.pages to the actual number of ## page headings. Do not add page numbers to page titles.

# Report title

> Scope, subject, or central topic

<!-- meta
goal: Goal of this report
skill: Report type
style: default
lang: business
pages: Actual page count
audience: Intended audience
date_range: Actual start and end dates

## Page title
`layout: English layout name from the table below`
`layout_intent: Reason for selecting this layout`
`layout_slots: Slot names defined for this layout`

- [slot: A slot name declared above] Component title [chart: line]
  | Actual time field | Actual metric field |
  |---|---|
  | Actual period | Actual value and unit |
  - [hint: Annotation supported by the actual data]

This example illustrates syntax, not a complete report template. Replace all explanatory text with actual content before submission; do not leave placeholders. Write page-level layout, layout_intent, and layout_slots using the single-line backtick format above. Each main content bullet's [slot: ...] must appear in layout_slots. Match the number of bullets to the selected layout. Layouts without main content slots must not include content bullets. For [text] slots, provide final copy; for [smart_layout], provide structured content; for [chart: ...], provide verified data that can be plotted.

Include a data overview, data definitions, analysis, and a closing decision. Use "Data overview" on page 1 to present the core findings and "Data definitions" on page 2 to explain sources, scope, definitions, and trustworthiness. Use the final page to consolidate findings and actions. Determine the number, sequence, titles, and layouts of intermediate analysis pages from the analysis itself. Prefer conclusion-based titles for analysis pages.

Layout Selection

Write the layout name in layout:. One bullet represents one main content slot, not an additional chart. Use meaningful slot names such as main-chart, left-chart, right-chart, spec-body, and takeaways; avoid generic names such as slot1.

Layout	Appropriate content and structure	Main content slots
KPI Ledger	Core metric overview with verified KPIs and three lower-section conclusions: evidence, attribution, and recommendation. Each KPI includes its name, current value, and description.	1
Specification Sheet	Sources, dates, metric definitions, units, and limitations. Use a two-column specification table with at most 5 body rows; put additional details in footnotes.	1
Single-Chart Insight	One main chart supporting one conclusion, with three lines for evidence, attribution, and recommendation. Use chart.	1
Dual-Chart Comparison	Two complementary charts on the same topic, with two lines for evidence and risk. Place one chart on each side.	2
Dual-Track Comparison	A/B or before-and-after comparison using matching dimensions and definitions. Mirror the factual panels, each with a main metric and brief supporting facts.	2
Closing Statement	Final-page findings and priority actions in two columns, with 2-3 items each and no more than 3. Number findings 01-03 and actions P1-P3; include a "Goal:" line at the bottom.	1
Horizontal Timeline	A linear process with 4-7 steps. Use one timeline component; each node includes its number, key value or status, and stage name.	1
Feedback Loop	A closed cycle with 3-5 steps. Do not use it for a linear process.	1
Three Forces Cards	Three comparable drivers or growth opportunities, each with a short title and one explanatory sentence.	3
Three-Column Argument	A progressive argument across three columns, each supported by facts or data. Use chart.	3
Four-Column Features	Four equally weighted features or actions with matching structure.	4
Six-Cell Definition	Six equally weighted definitions, snapshots, or metrics, each with a short title and description.	6
Micro-Card Briefing	Six short observations or tips in a 3-by-2 grid. Each item includes a brief conclusion and footnote.	6
Matrix Overview	An overview of 8-12 comparable items, with a total or overall assessment below.	8-12
System Architecture	A strictly nested three-layer Core / Middle / Outer architecture. Do not use it for an ordinary list.	1
Image Hero	One real image used as evidence, with an explanation or supporting KPI. Do not use it without an actual image.	1
Minimal Statement	A single central claim or section opening. Do not use it for data charts.	0
Dot-Matrix Statement	A qualitative statement or section transition with brief anchor text. Do not use it for data charts.	0
Statement Banner	An intermediate claim with supporting explanation. Do not use it as a substitute for the final decision page.	0-1

For analysis pages with verified quantitative data, consider Single-Chart Insight or Dual-Chart Comparison first. Choose another layout when the content does not fit. Content in multiple slots should complement rather than repeat the same data. Use chart for chart-based layouts and prefer smart_layout for processes, matrices, and comparisons. Do not invent metrics, images, or items to fill a layout.

Charts and Values

Supported chart types are line, bar, column, grouped_bar, stacked_bar, grouped_column, stacked_column, pie, donut, combo, scatter, and bubble. Immediately follow each [chart: ...] bullet with a Markdown table whose headers use actual business field names. Ordinary charts use a dimension and metric; grouped charts add a series field; combo uses separate columns for the bar and line metrics; scatter charts use X/Y; bubble charts add size. Table-based smart_layout content also requires column headers. Preserve units, dates, currencies, and percentage definitions in the data rows. Include only aggregated plotting data, not raw detail records.

After a chart's data rows, include a meaningful [hint: ...] to annotate a target line, average, unusual period, or important series or category. Do not add hints to smart_layout. Do not present unverified causes as facts. Explain missing data and conflicting definitions on the definitions page or the relevant analysis page. Before submission, verify that page counts, slot counts, chart fields, values, and conclusions are consistent.
