What it does

Market Analyst Master is an agent skill from OctagonAI/skills. Comprehensive market analyst skill that orchestrates all Octagon stock performance and market data skills. Use when conducting stock analysis, creating market reports, evaluating valuations, comparing sectors, or performing technical and sentiment analysis.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 23 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `marketplace.json` and `references/mcp-setup.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Stock and market analysis and Customer feedback analysis. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Claude skills for agentic financial research by Octagon. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Conducting stock analysis
  • Creating market reports
  • Evaluating valuations
  • Comparing sectors

Example prompts

  • “/market-analyst-master”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Stock Snapshot
  2. Analyst Sentiment
  3. Historical Performance
  4. Sector & Industry Context
  5. Market Context
  6. Asset Class Context (Optional)
  7. Report Generation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51e938c. 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.

    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

Market Analyst Master loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~12k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 699 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~70
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~12k

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

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.

Analysis Tips

  1. Start with price action: Current quote and recent performance set context.

  2. Layer in sentiment: Analyst targets and ratings show Wall Street view.

  3. Add valuation context: P/E vs. sector/industry for relative value.

  4. Consider market context: Is the market helping or hurting?

  5. Synthesize signals: Technical + sentiment + valuation = complete view.

  6. Watch for divergences: When indicators disagree, dig deeper.
