From the author

Risk Manager. Checks every trade against your limits and stops anything over them, before it can reach the broker. For a day trade: a stop is required, the loss at the stop must fit your max loss per trade (measured from the higher of the plan's entry and a fresh price), reward:risk must meet your minimum, the day's total risk must fit your daily loss limit, no more than your trades per day, and no new entries outside your entry window or when the market is closed. It also keeps the basics: blocked tickers, order size, position cap, cash buffer, margin, short sales, options and crypto, malformed or bad bracket orders, duplicates and a daily order limit. Getting out is never blocked by a day limit. Prints PASS or BLOCK with the reason and records the verdicts so trader-broker only shows an order that passed. Use when the user says "check my order", "is this safe", "risk check", "does this break my rules", "can I take this trade", "how much have I risked today", or before /trader-broker, always.

How much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

Pattern check: nothing flagged

That isn't proof the skill is harmless.

Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit 3d0f4ef, the one we checked, or the latest version.

OpenCode also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Goose also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop) also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Zed also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Roo Code also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Factory Droid also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Junie also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Amp also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

No install command here reaches Kiro. Copy the skill's folder into .kiro/skills/ in your project, or ~/.kiro/skills/ for all your projects. Jakeschincariol/day-trader-skill/trader-risk (opens in a new tab)

Antigravity also looks in .agents/skills/, so the Any agent steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Antigravity looks.

Cline also looks in .claude/skills/, so the Claude Code steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Cline looks.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie and Amp. With This project, Any agent also reaches Antigravity and Claude Code reaches Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit 3d0f4ef · 3 Nov 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit 3d0f4ef on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

How the check works Report an incorrect finding

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

Agent Skills specPasses with warnings
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Warning
  Fields outside the spec: argument-hint (read by Claude Code and VS Code). Uploads to the Claude apps and API, and the spec's validator, reject the file; most agents ignore these fields. O1
  Fix: Delete them for a portable skill, or keep them if you only target the agents that read them.
- Note
  There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2
  Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.
Claude CodePasses
Claude apps & API uploadFails
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
- Error
  Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: argument-hint. O1
  Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.
- Note
  The description is 1008 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
  Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.
OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes with warnings
Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.
- Warning
  Fields outside the spec: argument-hint. Codex ignores them; OpenAI doesn't say whether its upload accepts them. O1
  Fix: Delete them, or move your own data under metadata as text values.
VS Code & CopilotPasses

trader-alertsPrice Alerts. Rings when a price, a stop or the opening bell hits. Turns the trade plan into three alerts in one go (the stop, the target and "flat by close" at your flat-by time), plus above / below / stop / target levels, percent moves from the previous close, any time of day, and the NYSE opening bell, each ringing once so you are not spammed. Knows NYSE hours with the 2026 and 2027 holidays and 1:00 p.m. early closes, works out New York time itself, fetches free delayed quotes (Yahoo chart JSON, Stooq CSV) one ticker at a time, and writes trader/prices.json for sizing and the risk check. Use when the user says "alert me when", "tell me if TSLA hits", "watch my stop", "watch my trade", "remind me to close by 3:55", "is the market open", "when does the market open", "get me a price", or right after /trader-exit writes a plan.

trader-analystThe Earnings Analyst. Reads a company's reported numbers straight from SEC EDGAR (XBRL company facts from its 10-Qs and 10-Ks, plus the latest earnings 8-K and its press release) and sums up what changed: revenue, gross, operating and net margins, net income and diluted EPS, quarter by quarter, each against the same quarter a year earlier, with the trailing twelve months. Reads an earnings call transcript when you paste one. Use when the user says "how did Tesla's earnings look", "analyze the earnings", "what changed this quarter", "is revenue growing", "check the 10-Q", "compare margins", "sum up the call", "does it report this week", or before trading a stock around its earnings.

trader-brokerOrder Executor. Sends approved orders to your broker, paper trading by default, never without your yes. Shows each order as a plain ticket (a bracket shows its stop-loss, take-profit and the max loss at the stop) plus the exact JSON for Alpaca's place_stock_order, records your yes word for word, then Claude's own Allow once / Deny card asks again. Builds the sell ticket that closes a day trade by your flat-by time, records fills, and logs each trade's max loss so trader-risk can hold the daily limit. Covers setting up Alpaca's official MCP server in Claude Desktop (paper by default, keys in env vars, never in chat), the Interactive Brokers connector, and setting order tools to "Needs approval". Use when the user says "place the order", "buy it", "execute", "send it to my broker", "close my position", "flatten", "get me out", "connect Alpaca", "set up paper trading", or after /trader-risk passes.

trader-budgetBudget Manager. Sizes every position to your budget and your max loss per trade. Reads the trade plan from trader-exit (entry, stop, target), finds the whole shares that fit inside four limits (max loss per trade, position cap, max order, cash after your buffer), says which limit decided it, and writes ONE bracket order (entry, stop-loss, take-profit) to trader/orders.json in the exact shape of Alpaca's place_stock_order. A stop too far away for your max loss is a plain refusal, not a smaller order. Nothing is placed. Use when the user says "how many shares", "size this trade", "how much should I buy", "I have $5,000", "I only want to risk $50 a trade", "set my rules", "keep 10% in cash", or after /trader-exit writes a plan.

trader-entryEntry Timer. Watches a setup bar by bar and tells you the moment to get in. Reads free Yahoo 1-minute or 5-minute bars, builds the opening range (the first 15 minutes by default) and calls the entry on the first completed bar that CLOSES above the range high, or above a level you give it (like a 20-day high from the scanner), with an optional volume check. Says waiting and how far, triggered with the time and the price, expired, or not open yet, and writes trader/entry.json for /trader-exit. Long side only. It never places an order. Use when the user says "tell me when to get in", "watch TSLA", "has it broken out", "did it break the opening range", "entry signal", "time my entry", "check my watchlist", or after /trader-scanner and /trader-news, before /trader-exit.

trader-exitExit Planner. Sets your stop and your target before you enter, so you know when to get out. Reads the entry from trader-entry (or a price you give), puts the stop at the opening-range midpoint by default (or the range low, your price, a percent, or a multiple of the ATR), rounds it down to the cent, and sets the target at 2R (or 1R, or your price). Refuses a stop at or above the entry, a target at or below it, or a stop too tight to survive the spread, and says why. Writes trader/plan.json for the Time Machine, the Budget Manager and Price Alerts. Long side only. Use when the user says "where's my stop", "set my stop and target", "plan the exit", "when do I get out", "stop loss", "what's my R", "risk reward", or right after /trader-entry triggers, before /trader-timemachine.
