What it does
This is a repo-local skill for operating the lo2cin4bt backtest app. It covers the single app-managed route that takes a normalized config through the persistent Rust engine to validated canonical artifacts and the frontend on port 2424. It is used for local execution, runtime failures, performance checks, output cleanup and checking that completed runs show up in the frontend.
The agent reproduces a problem before diagnosing it, keeps every strategy on the shared engine and checks app, API and frontend evidence end to end. A pre-run checklist confirms the config path, schema version and workflow, provider, symbol, bar specification, session calendar, benchmark, costs and slippage, the metricstracker settings (defaults of 252 for traditional daily assets, 365 for crypto and a 0.04 risk-free rate), a local output path, and that no live trading or broker order path is involved.
Required reads are reference files under skills/lo2cin4bt/references, such as runtime architecture, first run, troubleshooting and the payload contract map. Replies follow the language of the user and switch to Traditional Chinese when the user writes Chinese. Backtests are described as local research artifacts, not investment or trading advice.
When your agent uses it
- Running a local strategy_run backtest and checking its generated artifacts
- Troubleshooting a failed WFA or rolling validation run
- Starting the frontend on port 2424 and refreshing a stale payload
- Checking a backtest config before a run
Example prompts
- “Run the strategy config in ./configs/sma-cross.json and tell me whether the frontend shows it.”
- “My Parameter Matrix run failed halfway through. Find out why.”
- “Refresh the payload and take a screenshot of the Run Center page.”
Requirements
- A local checkout of lo2cin4bt with its Rust engine and frontend
- A backtest config file
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Use response_language from the PM packet when present; otherwise infer it from the latest user message.
- If the user writes in Chinese or asks for Chinese, write Traditional Chinese for all non-specialist wording.
- Keep code identifiers, file paths, commands, schema keys, agent/skill names, ticker symbols, provider names, and standard finance/quant…
- Return response_language in the output packet. When writing repo-local reports, apply the same language policy to the report body.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d2e0863. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonuv
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
lo2cin4bt Backtesting loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 739 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 739 words (~1,755 tokens).
“Operate and diagnose the one app-managed backtest route from normalized config through the persistent Rust engine to validated canonical artifacts and port 2424.”
