Analysis skills

Skills are higher-level analysis patterns: the LLM uses the tools as directed by the skill text to answer questions like “What needs attention?”, “Summarize the facility”, or “Audit in a week — check risk areas.”

Skills are available in two ways:

  1. Cursor — When this repo is open, rules in .cursor/rules/ route questions to the right skill.
  2. Any MCP client — The server exposes skills as MCP resources. Call resources/list, then resources/read with the URI below; pass the returned markdown to the LLM as context.

Skill list

Skill When to use MCP resource URI Framework section
Needs attention “What needs attention?”, “What’s due?”, compliance, expiring tags, stuck items metrc://skills/needs-attention §1 Bulk, §9 Compliance
Facility summary “Summarize the facility”, “What’s our state?”, overview metrc://skills/facility-summary —
Traceability “Where did this package come from?”, “What was produced from harvest X?” metrc://skills/traceability —
Inventory summary “What’s in inventory?”, “By location/strain?”, aging stock metrc://skills/inventory-summary §3 Inventory intelligence
Audit-ready snapshot “Audit in a week — check risk areas”, compliance health check metrc://skills/audit-ready-snapshot §9.1 Audit-ready snapshots
FIFO / aging pull “What to pull for samples/vendor days/discounting?”, FIFO list metrc://skills/fifo-aging-pull §2.1 Intelligent FIFO / aging pull
Fragmentation detection “Show fragmentation?”, multiple partials per item metrc://skills/fragmentation-detection §7.1 Partial package fragmentation
Sample-out low counts “Which low-count packages to sample out?” metrc://skills/sample-out-low-counts §7.3 Sample-out for sales enablement
Slow-moving inventory “Slow-moving or non-moving inventory?” metrc://skills/slow-moving-inventory §3.1 Slow / non-moving detection
Aging discount/sampling “Approaching age limits?”, “Best for discount/sampling?” metrc://skills/aging-discount-sampling §2.2 Aging discount / sampling
Package consolidation “Consolidate packages?”, “Re-sticker or combine?” metrc://skills/package-consolidation §7.2 Package consolidation

Using resources in an external LLM

  1. List resources: Call MCP resources/list. You’ll get URIs like metrc://skills/needs-attention, metrc://skills/facility-summary, etc.
  2. Read a skill: Call resources/read with params: { uri: "metrc://skills/needs-attention" }. The response contains the full skill markdown.
  3. Context: Add that text to the LLM’s system or user message so it knows which tools to call and how to summarize.
  4. Execute: The LLM then calls the METRC tools (e.g. metrc_get_harvests, metrc_get_packages, metrc_get_tags_plant_available) and formats the answer per the skill.

Mapping to the Master Framework

The Master Function & Feature Framework defines 14 feature areas. Skills above implement or align with:

Framework section Implemented as skill / tool
§1 Bulk & efficiency Tools support array payloads; “Bulk actions” skill pattern in framework.
§2.1 FIFO / aging pull Skill: FIFO / aging pull (metrc://skills/fifo-aging-pull)
§2.2 Aging discount / sampling Skill: Aging discount/sampling (metrc://skills/aging-discount-sampling)
§3 Inventory intelligence Skill: Inventory summary; Skill: Slow-moving inventory (metrc://skills/slow-moving-inventory)
§7 Package optimization Skill: Fragmentation detection, Package consolidation, Sample-out low counts
§9.1 Audit-ready snapshots Skill: Audit-ready snapshot (metrc://skills/audit-ready-snapshot)
§9.2 Employee self-audit App for attribution; skill possible if action history available.
§13 Custom reports LLM + tools = ad-hoc reports; see framework for GUI report builder.
§14 Yield analyzer Skill can use harvests, packages, lab tests; app for yield modeling.

See Framework for the full mapping of each section to MCP/skills vs app.
