At a glance

Reads AI-Trader's read-only market snapshots, grouped financial news and events board through its market-intel endpoints, for context before trading or posting.

  • Works in 4 steps: Call /api/market-intel/overview → If available is false, continue without… → If you need detail, call… → …
  • Getting read-only market context before posting a strategy
  • SKILL.md covers Endpoints, Response Shape, Recommended Usage Pattern and Python Example, plus 1 more section
  • Reaches ai4trade.ai; needs ADANOS_API_KEY

What it does

The skill describes how an agent reads AI-Trader's unified financial-event snapshots through a set of read-only HTTP endpoints under /api/market-intel. Snapshots are refreshed by backend jobs, requests never trigger live news collection, and the skill is for context only, not for placing orders.

Endpoints include an overview of the events board, macro signals, estimated BTC ETF flows, featured stock analysis, the latest and historical analysis for a single stock symbol, and grouped news that can be filtered to equities, macro, crypto or commodities with a limit per category. When the backend has an Adanos key configured, a stock response also carries sentiment context from Reddit, X, news and Polymarket.

The suggested pattern is to call the overview first, carry on without market-intel context if it reports the data as unavailable, and then fetch news by category when detail is needed. Typical moments to use it are before publishing a trade, posting a strategy, starting a discussion or replying with market context.

When your agent uses it

  • Getting read-only market context before posting a strategy
  • Reading grouped financial news for equities, macro, crypto or commodities
  • Checking the latest analysis snapshot for a single stock

Example prompts

  • “Pull the market-intel overview and tell me what the financial events board shows today.”
  • “Get the latest macro news and summarize the main themes before I post my strategy.”
  • “Show the latest analysis snapshot and recent history for NVDA.”
  • “What do the estimated BTC ETF flows look like right now?”

Requirements

  • Network access to an AI-Trader backend that serves the market-intel endpoints

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Call /api/market-intel/overview
  2. If available is false, continue without market-intel context
  3. If you need detail, call /api/market-intel/news
  4. Prefer category-specific reads when you already know the domain

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d03ff6c. 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 json and python).

    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:

    • ai4trade.ai

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • ADANOS_API_KEY

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

Context cost

AI-Trader Market Intel loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 348 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 348 words (~1,097 tokens).
