Agent Skills: Quantitative Analysis Skill

Quantitative Analysis Skill

Execute structured quantitative analysis workflows with statistical validation.

Capability probe

Before collecting external fundamentals or filings, follow the shared paid MCP capability probe. This workflow wants financial-datasets for normalized statements and filing data. If it is absent, state whether primary-source WebSearch can support the requested model with extra validation; otherwise stop and name the missing MCP and setup action.

Workflow Steps

1. Plan — Define statistical modeling objectives, metrics, and assumptions
2. Data Validation — Use data_validator_cli.py for statistical validity (outliers, gaps, splits)
3. Risk Metrics — Use risk_metrics_cli.py for VaR/CVaR/Sharpe/Sortino/Drawdown (minimum 90 days)
4. Momentum Analysis — Use momentum_cli.py for confluence analysis
5. Volatility Metrics — Use volatility_cli.py for regime analysis
6. Correlation Analysis — Use correlation_cli.py for diversification and covariance matrices
7. Factor Analysis — Use factors_cli.py for Fama-French 3-factor, Carhart 4-factor models
8. Strategy Validation — Use backtester_cli.py with transaction costs and realistic slippage
9. Portfolio Optimization — Use optimizer_cli.py for mean-variance, risk parity, max Sharpe, Black-Litterman

• Validate all assumptions against compliance policies
• Apply robust methods with proper confidence intervals
• All market data must be timestamped and verified against current date
• Minimum 90 days of data for robust statistics
