Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned tradermonty/claude-trading-skills at fac23bed61.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The Market News Analyst skill provides summaries and sentiment analysis of financial news articles. It can identify key events impacting markets, extract relevant data points from news reports (like earnings figures or economic indicators), and gauge the overall market sentiment expressed in the article – whether positive, negative, or neutral. This allows users to quickly understand the implications of breaking news on financial instruments.

When to use it

  • Rapid Market Assessment: Quickly understand the potential impact of a sudden news event on specific stocks or sectors.
  • Investment Research: Supplement traditional research by automatically summarizing and analyzing relevant news articles.
  • Trading Decisions: Inform real-time trading decisions based on up-to-the-minute market sentiment derived from news sources.
  • Portfolio Monitoring: Stay informed about potential risks and opportunities affecting holdings within a portfolio.

Key capabilities

  • News article summarization
  • Sentiment analysis (positive, negative, neutral)
  • Data point extraction (e.g., earnings figures, economic indicators)
  • Identification of key events impacting markets

Example prompts

  • "Summarize the latest news regarding Tesla and analyze the market sentiment."
  • "What are the key takeaways from recent articles about inflation?"
  • "Extract any mentioned revenue or profit numbers from news reports concerning Apple."

Tips & gotchas

The accuracy of analysis depends on the quality and clarity of the source news article. Be aware that sentiment analysis can be subjective, and results should always be considered alongside other sources of information.
