Sensitivity Charts

Visualize how changes in variables affect outcomes. Use for risk analysis and decision support.

Security Scan

This is an instruction-only, template-style skill for sensitivity/tornado charts that requires no installs, credentials, or filesystem access and is consistent with its stated purpose.

Purpose & Capability

Name and description (sensitivity/tornado charts, risk analysis) match the SKILL.md content. There are no unrelated environment variables, binaries, or installs requested.

Instruction Scope

The runtime instructions are high-level templates (e.g., 'Perform sensitivity analysis for $ARGUMENTS') and example tables/outputs. They do not instruct reading files, env vars, or contacting external endpoints, but they are intentionally vague and rely on runtime inputs/context.

Install Mechanism

No install spec and no code files — the skill is instruction-only, so nothing is written to disk or downloaded during install.

Credentials

No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are required; requested access is minimal and proportional to the stated purpose.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and there is no indication the skill requests permanent presence or modifies other skills or system-wide settings.

Assessment

This skill is a benign, template-based helper for performing sensitivity/tornado analyses and does not request credentials or install code. Before using it, (1) provide explicit, non-sensitive inputs (variables, base case, ranges) so results are reproducible; (2) verify any numeric assumptions and ranges the agent uses; (3) avoid feeding sensitive business secrets into the agent if you are concerned about downstream logging or storage by the platform; and (4) if you want automation to read files or external data, prefer creating a narrow, purpose-specific connector rather than letting the agent infer data sources from vague prompts.

Output

## Sensitivity Analysis: [Decision/Project]

### Variable Impact Ranking

| Variable | Base | Low Case | High Case | Impact |
|----------|------|----------|-----------|--------|
| Price | $100 | $85 (-15%) | $115 (+15%) | $30M |
| Volume | 1M | 800K | 1.2M | $25M |
| Cost | $50 | $45 | $55 | $20M |
| Mix | 50/50 | 40/60 | 60/40 | $10M |

### Scenario Analysis

| Scenario | NPV | Probability | Expected Value |
|----------|-----|-------------|----------------|
| Base Case | $100M | 50% | $50M |
| Optimistic | $150M | 20% | $30M |
| Pessimistic | $60M | 30% | $18M |
| **Expected** | | | **$98M** |

### Key Findings

1. **Most sensitive**: Price (±$30M impact)
2. **Least sensitive**: Mix (±$10M impact)
3. **Breakeven**: [Analysis]

### Risk Mitigation

1. [Mitigation for most sensitive variable]
2. [Mitigation for second most sensitive]

Tips

• Focus on top 5-7 variables
• Use realistic ranges
• Show both upside and downside
