Synthetic teaching material: DEMO-CONSUMER, no ticker. Flow figures cover January 1–September 30; receivables are point-in-time balances at September 30. Management mentions delayed customer payments; aging and subsequent collections are missing, so the cause remains unresolved.

Each run writes to a new reports/{run-id}/, preserving inputs and previous reports. Status distinguishes completed, needs-input and failed.

What to prepare

Company identity, two comparable reports and one question. Use readable PDFs or text with source locations.

File preparation & data definitions →

Start with this request

Use the earnings review Skill to compare the two reports in inputs. Does operating cash flow support profit growth? Keep source locations and separate facts, management explanations, inference and missing evidence. Use only these files and write to a new report folder.

First ask your host to inspect the method version, inputs, output location and dependencies in read-only mode. Downloading, discovering a Skill and completing its sample are separate steps.

Its limits

Resolve currency, units and quarterly versus cumulative periods before calculating. One period cannot establish growth. Request readable text for scanned files. A management explanation is not verified causation.

No network retrieval, account connection or result upload by default. Model handling depends on your host and service settings; this is not a promise of fully offline processing.

At the next disclosure, continue from your own original reasons. Do not let AI invent a past thesis.
