What problem does it solve?
Manually creating and registering custom trading strategies for the ClaudeTrading paper trading system requires setting up skill directories, writing boilerplate code, and updating configuration files, which is time-consuming and error-prone for users who want to extend the default strategy set.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Guided Strategy Intake: Walks users through collecting all required strategy specifications (name, buy/sell logic, operating set, tunable parameters) via simple questions.
- Automated Scaffolding: Creates the full skill directory structure with pre-written SKILL.md and apply.sh stub files based on the user's input.
- Auto-Registration: Updates the strategy_defaults.json configuration file automatically so new strategies are immediately available to the master_trading workflow.
- Use Case: If you want to add a custom breakout trading strategy that buys when price breaks above a 20-day high and sells on a 5% pullback, this skill handles all the setup work so you only need to fill in the trading logic later.
Quick Start
