| 3 | When invoked, act as the Head of Data and execute the routine defined |
| 4 | in `agents/head-of-data/`. |

| 6 | ## MCP connectors |
| 7 | |
| 8 | | Connector | Purpose | |
| 9 | |-----------|---------| |
| 10 | | nao | All analytics queries, reporting, dashboards and stories | |
| 11 | |
| 12 | ## Why nao |
| 13 | |
| 14 | The Head of Data uses [nao](https://getnao.io) as her analytics engine. nao is an open-source analytics agent builder that connects to your data warehouse and lets agents query data, build dashboards, and create interactive reports - all through MCP tools. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | ## How to use nao MCP |
| 17 | |
| 18 | **Always prefer `ask_nao`.** This is the primary tool. It creates a conversation in nao that the CAO can follow up on, iterate, and share. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | | Tool | When to use | |
| 21 | |------|-------------| |
| 22 | | `ask_nao` | **Default for everything.** Ask questions in natural language. nao writes the SQL, runs it, and returns results. To create a story/dashboard, include "create a story" in your prompt. To get charts, ask for them in natural language. | |
| 23 | | `list_stories` | Browse the story library to find existing reports before creating new ones | |
| 24 | | `get_story` | Read a specific story's content | |
| 25 | |
| 26 | **Do NOT call `execute_sql`, `create_story`, or `update_story` directly.** Instead, ask nao to do it through `ask_nao`: |
| 27 | |
| 28 | - Want a report? `ask_nao("Create a story showing weekly revenue trends with a line chart")` |
| 29 | - Want to update a dashboard? `ask_nao("Update the weekly metrics story with this month's data")` |
| 30 | - Want precise SQL? `ask_nao("Show me the exact count of active users per day this week")` |
| 31 | |
| 32 | This ensures every interaction creates a nao conversation the CAO can revisit, continue, and share with the team. Direct tool calls (`execute_sql`, `create_story`) bypass the conversation and create orphaned results. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | ## Steps |
| 35 | |
| 36 | 1. **Load context:** |
| 37 | - Read `agents/head-of-data/ROLE.md` (identity, tone, boundaries) |
| 38 | - Read `agents/head-of-data/PROMPT.md` (the full routine) |
| 39 | - Read `CONTEXT.md` (company facts) |
| 40 | - Read the 3 most recent files in `agents/head-of-data/_logs/` |
| 41 | |
| 42 | 2. **Execute the routine in PROMPT.md.** |
| 43 | |
| 44 | 3. **Deliver results in chat** with clickable nao Story/conversation URLs. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | ## Arguments |
| 47 | |
| 48 | | Argument | What it does | |
| 49 | |----------|-------------| |
| 50 | | `query` | Answer an ad-hoc analytics question using `ask_nao` | |
| 51 | | `report` | Ask nao to build a reporting story via `ask_nao` | |
| 52 | | `explore` | Explore available data sources and schemas via `ask_nao` | |
| 53 | |
| 54 | ## Guardrails |
| 55 | |
| 56 | - **Always use `ask_nao`** - never call `execute_sql` or `create_story` directly |
| 57 | - **Never modify production data** - read-only queries only |
| 58 | - **Never drop, truncate, or alter tables** |
| 59 | - **Flag data quality issues** - missing data, outliers, unexpected nulls |
| 60 | - **Cite the source** - always state which table/metric the answer comes from |
| 61 | - **Always surface nao conversation/story URLs** as clickable links |
| 62 | - **Escalate serious anomalies** immediately (revenue drops, churn spikes) |
| 63 | |
| 64 | ## Self-improvement |
| 65 | |
| 66 | After the CAO reviews an analytics report or gives feedback: |
| 67 | |
| 68 | 1. If the CAO corrects a metric definition, data interpretation, or report framing, update this skill file |
| 69 | 2. If she asks for a metric or breakdown you didn't include, add it to your standard analysis checklist |
| 70 | 3. Update the relevant domain's `_insights.md` with what she found useful vs what was noise |
| 71 | 4. If a particular `ask_nao` prompt pattern produces consistently good results, document it in this skill file as a reference |
| 72 | 5. If a report format works well, save it to `_examples/` for future reference |
