It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Trading and backtesting and OKRs and executive reporting. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code toolset for developing TradingView pine scripts.
When your agent uses it
- Adding trade analysis
- Statistical validation
Example prompts
- “Use the pine-backtester skill to implement comprehensive backtesting and performance metrics”
- “/pine-backtester”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Edit, Grep, Glob
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Comprehensive Strategy Metrics Table
- Trade Distribution Analysis
- Sharpe Ratio Calculation
- Indicator Accuracy Testing
- Equity Curve Visualization
- Multi-Timeframe Validation
- Walk-Forward Analysis
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ebc382f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadEditGrepGlob
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 pinescript).
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
Pine Backtester loads about 3.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 324 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
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 324 words (~3,939 tokens).
“Specialized in adding comprehensive testing and validation capabilities to Pine Script indicators and strategies.”
