What it does

Risk Analyzer is an agent skill from CoWork-OS/CoWork-OS. Portfolio risk analysis including Value at Risk (parametric, historical, Monte Carlo), Conditional VaR, stress testing, drawdown analysis, and factor exposure assessment.

Its SKILL.md is about 780 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/full-guidance.md`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Load testing. The repository describes itself as: Local-first personal agentic OS and everything app for coding, knowledge work, web design, automations, and artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Load testing

Example prompts

  • “/risk-analyzer”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0ace02b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Risk Analyzer loads about 779 tokens when it runs, and up to ~3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 295 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~779
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Risk Analyzer

Purpose

Portfolio risk analysis including Value at Risk (parametric, historical, Monte Carlo), Conditional VaR, stress testing, drawdown analysis, and factor exposure assessment.

Routing

  • Use when: Use when the user asks about portfolio risk, Value at Risk, VaR, CVaR, stress testing, drawdown analysis, factor exposure, risk budgeting, beta, tracking error, or any risk measurement and management question.
  • Do not use when: Do not use when the request is about portfolio construction/optimization (use Portfolio Optimizer), company valuation, or financial modeling.
  • Outputs: Outcome from Risk Analyzer: comprehensive risk assessment with VaR/CVaR calculations, stress test results, factor exposures, drawdown analysis, and risk management recommendations.
  • Success criteria: Returns quantified risk metrics at the specified confidence level and horizon, identifies key risk concentrations, provides stress test impacts, and recommends actionable risk mitigation steps.

Trigger Examples

Positive
  • Use the risk-analyzer skill for this request.
  • Help me with risk analyzer.
  • Use when the user asks about portfolio risk, Value at Risk, VaR, CVaR, stress testing, drawdown analysis, factor exposure, risk budgeting, beta, tracking error, or any risk measurement and management question.
  • Risk Analyzer: provide an actionable result.
Negative
  • Do not use when the request is about portfolio construction/optimization (use Portfolio Optimizer), company valuation, or financial modeling.
  • Do not use risk-analyzer for unrelated requests.
  • This request is outside risk analyzer scope.
  • This is conceptual discussion only; no tool workflow is needed.
