What it does

Query curated cybersecurity market and company intelligence. USE WHEN security market data OR cybersecurity funding OR cyber M&A OR security-company/investor research OR market maps OR deal activity OR Return on Security OR The Signal. NOT FOR vulnerability research, security news, or investment advice.

SecurityMarketData

Query Return on Security's Signal data through its live MCP interface, with evidence, freshness, and analytical boundaries intact.

Ideal State

  • Every answer comes from live Signal records reached through an authenticated signal-mcp (or the REST fallback when ROS_API_KEY exists), never from scraping, memory or an invented taxonomy.
  • A reader can tell observed records from analytical outputs (forecasts, scores, suggestions) and sees the provider's freshness and quota as returned.

Data & Config

Before executing, check <configRoot>/LIFEOS/USER/CUSTOMIZATIONS/SKILLS/SecurityMarketData/. If present, load enabled preferences and configuration; otherwise use these defaults. (configRoot is $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR when set, else ~/.claude)

First-time setup (the MCP server, the account, the sign-in) is in Setup.md.

Gotchas

  • OAuth 2.1 tokens last 24 hours, so a session that worked yesterday may need the interactive flow again.
  • Free access provides 180 calls/day and 12 tools; Pro adds 21 tools; Enterprise adds one.
  • suggest_acquirers, forecast_funding, exit_score, and consolidation or growth scores are analytical outputs, not observed facts, even though they come back from the same API.

Examples

  • Funding trend: “Show quarterly funding trends for cloud security and distinguish observed rounds from forecasts.”
