What it does

Earnings Flash is an agent skill from daloopa/investing. Rapid first-read earnings flash for a given company

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Financial analysis and OKRs and executive reporting. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Financial analysis
  • Tasks that involve OKRs and executive reporting

Example prompts

  • “/earnings-flash”

Workflow steps

11 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Company Lookup
  2. Prior Quarter Context (4 Quarters)
  3. Company-Specific KPIs
  4. Guidance Series
  5. Get the Earnings Document
  6. Executive Flash
  7. Key Numbers Table
  8. Guidance & Outlook

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e2dd01d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are html).

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • daloopa.com

    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

Earnings Flash loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 939 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

TICKER

Generate a rapid earnings flash for the company specified by the user: $ARGUMENTS

This is a lightweight, speed-focused version of /earnings-review — designed for a quick first read within minutes of a filing. It pulls just enough context from Daloopa to frame BEAT/MISS verdicts, then focuses on what's new and surprising.

Before starting, read ../data-access.md for data access methods and ../design-system.md for formatting conventions. Follow the data access detection logic and design system throughout this skill.

1. Company Lookup

Look up the company by ticker using discover_companies. Capture:

  • company_id
  • latest_calendar_quarter — anchor for all period calculations (see ../data-access.md Section 1.5)
  • latest_fiscal_quarter
  • Firm name for report attribution (default: "Daloopa") — see ../data-access.md Section 4.5

2. Prior Quarter Context (4 Quarters)

Calculate 4 quarters backward from latest_calendar_quarter. Search for and pull these core metrics:

Income Statement:

  • Revenue / Net Sales
  • Gross Profit
  • Operating Income / EBIT
  • Net Income
  • Diluted EPS

Cash Flow:

  • Operating Cash Flow
  • Free Cash Flow (or CapEx to compute it)

This is lighter than /earnings-review (4Q vs 8Q, no cost structure breakdown). The goal is just enough history to frame the latest quarter's results — not a full trend analysis.

3. Company-Specific KPIs

Think about the 3-5 most important KPIs for THIS company based on its business model. Search for those specific KPIs and pull for the same 4-quarter period. Also search for:

  • Segment/product revenue breakdown
  • Geographic revenue breakdown (if material)

Keep this targeted — discover the critical operating metrics, not everything available.

4. Guidance Series

Search for guidance series (revenue guidance, EPS guidance, margin guidance, any KPI guidance). If available, pull guidance data for the latest 2 quarters so you can compare the most recent actual results against what management guided.

CRITICAL: Apply +1 quarter offset — guidance from Q(N) applies to Q(N+1) results.

5. Get the Earnings Document

Use search_documents to find the most recent earnings-related filing. Search strategy:

  1. Search for keywords ["results", "earnings"] in the latest 1-2 calendar quarters
  2. If that returns nothing, try ["revenue"] or ["financial"] as broader terms

Read the document content from the search results. Focus on:

  • Earnings transcripts: Full document (management commentary, prepared remarks, Q&A)
  • 10-Q / 10-K: Financial statements and MD&A sections
  • 8-K: Full document (short event-driven filings)

If no document is found, proceed with the MCP fundamentals data only and note "No earnings document found — analysis based on financial data only."

5b. Stock Price Context

Get the current stock price using get_stock_prices (see ../data-access.md Section 1.7) — pass company_id and dates for the 3 most recent calendar days. Also pull prices around the earnings date (1 day before to 3 days after the latest_calendar_quarter end + ~30-45 days) to compute the post-earnings reaction. Include the next-day move percentage in the Executive Flash section.

6. Executive Flash

Write 3-5 bullet-point verdicts. Each bullet MUST compare the latest quarter's results against prior periods from Step 2 and/or guidance from Step 4. Format:

[BEAT/MISS/INLINE/MIXED] | Key number (YoY change) | One-sentence context

Examples:

  • BEAT | Revenue $95.4bn (+6.1% YoY) | Acceleration from +4.8% last quarter driven by iPhone 16 cycle
  • MISS | EPS $1.46 vs $1.52 prior year | Higher opex from AI investments weighed on margins
  • GUIDANCE UP | FY2026 revenue guided $400-405bn | Management raised full-year outlook on cloud strength

Use Daloopa citation links for all figures sourced from MCP. Use "(per filing)" for figures only found in the document.

Also include a one-line Management Tone assessment (confident/cautious/defensive/evasive/optimistic) if an earnings document was available. Support with specific language from the document.

Show full SKILL.md (376 more words)Show less

7. Key Numbers Table

Present the latest quarter's results with comparison context:

MetricLatest QuarterPrior QuarterYoY Changevs Guidance

Include: revenue, EPS, margins, segment breakdowns, KPIs — all sourced from MCP with Daloopa citation links. Add a "vs Guidance" column if guidance data was available from Step 4 (show beat/miss amount).

Group by category: P&L, Segments, KPIs, Cash Flow.

For figures only available from the document (not in MCP), include them in a separate "Per Filing" sub-section below the table and note they are not cross-referenced.

8. Guidance & Outlook

Extract forward-looking statements from the earnings document (if available):

  • Explicit numerical guidance (revenue, EPS, margin ranges)
  • Changes from prior guidance (raised, lowered, narrowed, withdrawn)
  • Qualitative outlook language
  • Capex/investment plans

If guidance data was pulled from Daloopa in Step 4, compare new guidance against prior guidance with a table:

MetricNew GuidancePrior GuidanceChange

If no document was found, summarize any guidance series data from Step 4 and note that no new guidance language is available.

9. Risk Flags

Call out concerning signals — this section should be sharp and skeptical:

  • Guidance cuts or narrowing
  • Missing disclosures or metrics that were previously reported
  • Growing gap between GAAP and non-GAAP
  • Cash flow divergence from earnings
  • One-time items that flatter the headline numbers
  • Management hedging or qualifying language (from document)

If no material risk flags, say so clearly: "No material risk flags identified."

10. Quick Read-Throughs

Write 2-3 bullets on what this filing implies for adjacent companies:

  • Suppliers: Positive or negative signal for key input providers
  • Customers: Demand signal for downstream buyers
  • Competitors: Share shift, pricing, or market growth implications

Format: **[COMPANY/SECTOR]**: [implication] (based on [specific data point])

11. Save Report

Save the HTML report to: reports/{TICKER}_earnings_flash_{PERIOD}.html (where PERIOD is the latest calendar quarter analyzed).

Use the design-system HTML template from ../design-system.md. Include all CSS inlined.

Add a FLASH banner at the top of the report. Insert this right after the opening <body> tag, before the <h1>:

html
<div style="background: #C0392B; color: white; text-align: center; padding: 8px 16px; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: 2px; margin-bottom: 16px;">
    EARNINGS FLASH — FIRST READ
</div>

The <h1> should be: {TICKER} Earnings Flash — {PERIOD}

Add a disclaimer after the flash banner:

html
<p style="font-size: 10px; color: #6C757D; font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 16px;">
    This is a rapid first-read summary. For full analysis with 8-quarter trends, cost structure,
    and competitive read-throughs, run /earnings-review {TICKER}.
</p>

Replace {FIRM_NAME} in the footer — see ../data-access.md Section 4.5.

All financial figures from Daloopa must use citation format: <a href="https://daloopa.com/src/{fundamental_id}">$X.XX million</a>

Tell the user where the HTML report was saved and highlight the 2-3 most notable findings.
