When your agent uses it
- Evaluating Joel Greenblatt-style special situations: spinoffs
- Merger securities
- Magic formula quality/value screens
- Event-driven mispricing
Example prompts
- “/greenblatt-special-situations”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

- Separate parent, spin, stub, rights, or merger consideration.
- Underwrite business quality and normalized earnings.
- Compare valuation to hidden or standalone value.
- Define event catalyst and post-event shareholder base.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2844d78. 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 markdown).
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
Greenblatt Special Situations loads about 420 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 150 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.

Greenblatt Special Situations
Use this skill to apply Joel Greenblatt-style event-driven value: look where structural reasons force investors to sell or ignore securities, especially spinoffs, restructurings, merger securities, and overlooked quality-value combinations.
When To Use
- Spinoff or post-spinoff analysis
- Restructuring, rights offering, merger security, or stub analysis
- Magic Formula quality/value screening
- Forced-selling event review
Trigger phrases include Greenblatt, spinoff, special situation, magic formula, event-driven, stub, and forced selling.
Process
- Identify the event and why natural holders may sell.
- Separate parent, spin, stub, rights, or merger consideration.
- Underwrite business quality and normalized earnings.
- Compare valuation to hidden or standalone value.
- Define event catalyst and post-event shareholder base.
Output Format
# Greenblatt View: [Situation]
## Verdict
Buy / Watchlist / Event Too Crowded / No Mispricing / Pass
## Event Structure
## Forced-Selling Mechanism
## Standalone Value
## Quality / Earnings Power
## Catalyst
## RisksGuardrails
- Do not buy every spinoff blindly.
- Do not ignore pro forma leverage.
- Do not assume event complexity equals value.
