## Description

Recommend the right trading workflow, skillset, API profile, and setup path from a natural-language goal. Use this as the on-ramp when a user expresses a trading or investing goal and needs to know which skill/workflow to use, where to start, or whether something works without paid API keys, e.g. "where do I start", "which skill should I use", "I want to swing trade only when the market is favorable", "what works without API keys", "どれを使えばいい", "API キー無しで 使えるものは". Routes and explains only; it never executes trades or auto-runs other skills, and it is honest when no workflow has shipped yet.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# Trading Skills Navigator

The interactive on-ramp for this repository. It turns a user's goal into a
concrete recommendation: which **workflow** to run, which **skillset**
(skills-index category) it belongs to, the **API requirement**, and the
**setup path** for Claude Web App or Claude Code.

A new user faces 74 skills + 12 workflows with no router. This skill is that
router. It is **deterministic**, a Python recommender (`scripts/recommend.py`)
consumes the repo metadata; this SKILL.md narrates the result conversationally.

## When to Use

- The user expresses a trading/investing goal and asks where to start or which
  skill/workflow to use ("どれを使えばいい", "where do I start").
- The user asks what works **without paid API keys**.
- The user wants the no-API vs API path separated, or a beginner path.
- The user describes a persona ("part-time swing trader", "dividend investor",
  "I want to short", "I want to backtest ideas") and needs routing.

Do **not** use this skill to execute trades, place orders, or auto-run other
skills. It recommends and explains only.

## Workflow

### Step 1, Capture the goal and constraints

From the user's message, extract:

- The natural-language **goal** (verbatim is fine).
- Optional constraints: **no-API** only? a daily **time budget**
  (15m/30m/60m/90m)? **experience** level (beginner/intermediate/advanced)?

Ask at most one brief clarifying question only if the goal is empty or has no
discernible intent. Otherwise proceed, the recommender degrades gracefully.

### Step 2, Run the recommender

```bash
python3 skills/trading-skills-navigator/scripts/recommend.py \
  --query "<the user's goal, verbatim>" \
  --format json
  # optional: --no-api  --time-budget 15m|30m|60m|90m|any
  #           --experience beginner|intermediate|advanced
```
