Performance Tracking Skill
When to Use
- Before launch to define metrics, data sources, and reporting cadence.
- During active campaigns to monitor pacing vs goals and trigger optimizations.
- Post-campaign retros to capture learnings and benchmarks.
Framework
- Metric Hierarchy – define business (pipeline, revenue), leading (MQL, CTR), and diagnostic metrics (CPC, landing page CVR).
- Data Plumbing – map sources (ad platforms, MA, CRM, BI) and ensure consistent IDs/UTMs.
- Dashboard Build – create executive + operator views with automated refresh.
- Alerting – set thresholds for spend pacing, CPA, conversion drops, SLAs.
- Insight Cadence – daily standups, weekly deep dives, end-of-campaign retros.
- Documentation – record hypotheses, experiments, and outcomes.
Templates
- KPI tree worksheet.
- Dashboard spec (dataset, visualization, owner, refresh schedule).
- Optimization log (date, insight, action, result).
Tips
- Automate alert routing (Slack, email) so anomalies are actioned quickly.
- Pair dashboards with narrative summaries to help execs interpret shifts.
- Capture experiment context in the optimization log to prevent repeating failed tests.
- Align BI/RevOps early so new metrics get logged before launch.

Attack Tree Construction
Build comprehensive attack trees to visualize threat paths. Use when mapping attack scenarios, identifying defense gaps, or communicating security risks to stakeholders.
Grafana Dashboards
Create and manage production Grafana dashboards for real-time visualization of system and application metrics. Use when building monitoring dashboards, visualizing metrics, or creating operational observability interfaces.
Matplotlib
Foundational plotting library. Create line plots, scatter, bar, histograms, heatmaps, 3D, subplots, export PNG/PDF/SVG, for scientific visualization and publication figures.
Scientific Visualization
Create publication figures with matplotlib/seaborn/plotly. Multi-panel layouts, error bars, significance markers, colorblind-safe, export PDF/EPS/TIFF, for journal-ready scientific plots.
Seaborn
Statistical visualization. Scatter, box, violin, heatmaps, pair plots, regression, correlation matrices, KDE, faceted plots, for exploratory analysis and publication figures.
Shap
Model interpretability and explainability using SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations). Use this skill when explaining machine learning model predictions, computing feature importance, generating SHAP plots (waterfall, beeswarm, bar, scatter, force, heatmap), debugging models, analyzing model bias or fairness, comparing models, or implementing explainable AI. Works with tree-based models (XGBoost, LightGBM, Random Forest), deep learning (TensorFlow, PyTorch), linear models, and any black-box model
Pydeseq2
Differential gene expression analysis (Python DESeq2). Identify DE genes from bulk RNA-seq counts, Wald tests, FDR correction, volcano/MA plots, for RNA-seq analysis.
Query Writing
For writing and executing SQL queries - from simple single-table queries to complex multi-table JOINs and aggregations
Pydeseq2
Differential gene expression analysis (Python DESeq2). Identify DE genes from bulk RNA-seq counts, Wald tests, FDR correction, volcano/MA plots, for RNA-seq analysis.
Scientific Visualization
Meta-skill for publication-ready figures. Use when creating journal submission figures requiring multi-panel layouts, significance annotations, error bars, colorblind-safe palettes, and specific journal formatting (Nature, Science, Cell). Orchestrates matplotlib/seaborn/plotly with publication styles. For quick exploration use seaborn or plotly directly.
