options-foundations

Defaults

Parameter	Default Value	Rationale
parameter_free	true	This skill has no tunable parameters; analysis scope set by temporal_scope frontmatter

Preflight

Run canonical pre-flight per contracts/preflight.md. Propagate X-Agentii-Trace per contracts/x-agentii-trace-header.md.

Methodology

Retrieval Scope

structured_only

Retrieval Strategy

Query knowledge entries for relevant frameworks; query search_by_analogue for historical cases.

Temporal Scope

See frontmatter temporal_scope block.

Tool Allowlist

See frontmatter allowed_tools.

Protocol

See ## Protocol section below.

Options Foundations

Options analysis powered by spec 037 L3/L4 knowledge base (K7).

Preflight

Run the canonical pre-flight sequence. See contracts/preflight.md.

Data Source Priority

1. Knowledge entries (K7 options frameworks) → 2. Options chain (live data) → 3. search_by_analogue for relevant cases

Protocol

1. Framework Application — apply K7 frameworks from references/knowledge-frameworks.md
2. Option Chain Analysis — retrieve and analyze current option data
3. Analogue Retrieval — query historical options/volatility cases

Methodology

Retrieval Scope

structured_only

Retrieval Strategy

Query gold.knowledge_entries for frameworks; query search_by_analogue for historical cases.

Temporal Scope

See frontmatter temporal_scope.

Tool Allowlist

See frontmatter allowed_tools.

Protocol

See ## Protocol section below.

Output File

{ticker}/{YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM}_options-foundations_{affix}.md

Output Structure

1. Executive Summary — key findings in 2-3 sentences
2. Framework Analysis — applied frameworks with specific findings
3. Quantitative Metrics — relevant calculations and benchmarks
4. Historical Analogues — matched cases with citations
5. Risk Assessment — key risk factors and mitigants
6. Coverage Gaps — data limitations and degraded flags
7. Executive Summary 2. Framework Analysis 3. Option Greeks & Metrics 4. Historical Analogues 5. Risk Profile 6. Scenarios

Error Handling

| Options chain unavailable | Proceed with framework-only analysis; flag options_data: degraded |

Final Summary (TUI)

Include ### Key Citations block (0–10 /v/ URLs).

Memory Load

Load prior context before retrieval. See contracts/memory-load.md.

Snapshot

Post-session synthesis. See contracts/snapshot-synthesis.md.

Output Frontmatter

Structured output per contracts/output-frontmatter-schema.md.
