At a glance

Fetch official FXMacroData macro release-calendar events for trade planning, macro regime checks, and event-risk filters.

  • Works in 3 steps: Run the calendar script → Review events[] for top-tier releases. → Fold the event timing into the trade plan
  • SKILL.md covers Workflow and Authentication
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python3; reaches api.fxmacrodata.com; needs FXMACRODATA_API_KEY

What it does

Fxmacrodata Calendar is an agent skill from tradermonty/claude-trading-skills. Fetch official FXMacroData macro release-calendar events for trade planning, macro regime checks, and event-risk filters. Use before CPI, NFP, GDP, PCE, retail sales, PMI, and central-bank decision windows.

Its SKILL.md is about 480 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/fetch_calendar.py` and `scripts/tests/test_fetch_calendar.py`).

The repository describes itself as: Claude Code skills for equity investors and traders — market analysis, technical charting, economic calendars, screeners, and trading strategy development. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/fxmacrodata-calendar”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in FXMACRODATA_API_KEY

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run the calendar script
  2. Review events[] for top-tier releases.
  3. Fold the event timing into the trade plan

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eab8d5c. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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:

    • api.fxmacrodata.com

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

  • Credentials

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

    • FXMACRODATA_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Fxmacrodata Calendar loads about 482 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 206 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~482

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

FXMacroData Calendar

Retrieve official-source macro release-calendar events from FXMacroData. Use this skill when a trade plan needs event timing, confirmed release dates, or a top-tier macro risk check.

Workflow

  1. Run the calendar script:

    bash
    python3 skills/fxmacrodata-calendar/scripts/fetch_calendar.py --currency usd --min-tier 1

  2. Review events[] for top-tier releases.

    Treat a nonzero exit as an unverified event-risk state, never as an empty calendar. Only a successful response containing events: [] establishes that no matching events were returned. The client accepts results only when the response currency matches the request and data_quality confirms an official, current, non-proxy, non-fallback, timestamp-complete, point-in-time-safe source. Each event must include an announcement timestamp and a non-empty release identifier.

  3. Fold the event timing into the trade plan:

    • pause new entries around high-impact releases;
    • reduce leverage or position size;
    • schedule follow-up review after the actual value is available;
    • explain which event and timestamp drove the adjustment.

Authentication

Set FXMACRODATA_API_KEY for authenticated FXMacroData endpoints. Public USD calendar rows can be fetched without a key. The client uses the canonical https://api.fxmacrodata.com/v1 endpoint and accepts --min-tier values 1, 2, or 3 only. Live calendar responses currently include market_tier; the skill treats it as an extension field and requires integer values 1 through 3 for filtering, although the current CalendarReleaseRow OpenAPI schema does not declare that field.
