b1e55ed Daily IC Brief Skill

Overview

<!-- Stafford Beer's daily algedonic signal: one nerve impulse from operations to identity. The brief is System 5 checking whether the organism is in pain or pleasure. -->

Produces an institutional-grade daily investment committee brief combining regime status, top signals, live portfolio, and market context. Designed for daily consumption — concise, actionable, delta-focused.

Prerequisites

• b1e55ed MCP tools configured in extensions_config.json:
  • list_producers + get_latest_signal("regime_detector") — current market regime
  • list_producers + get_latest_signal per producer — signal retrieval
  • list_producers (position data via portfolio producer) — live portfolio
• Memory keys (optional, for delta analysis):
  • brief_last_summary — prior brief summary
  • brief_last_regime — regime at last brief
  • brief_action_items — pending action items from prior brief

Model Guidance

| Step | Model Recommendation | |------|---------------------| | Coordinator | Strong model (Claude Sonnet or equivalent) | | Web search steps (4-5) | Any model (cost-efficient) | | Synthesis step (7-8) | Strong model (Claude Sonnet or equivalent) |

Workflow

Step 1: Get Regime Status

Call list_producers + get_latest_signal("regime_detector") to retrieve:

• Current regime classification
• Kill switch status
• Trend direction and strength

This is the framing context for the entire brief.

Step 2: Get Top Signals

Call list_producers + get_latest_signal per producer with parameters:

• No domain filter (all domains)
• limit: 10

Record the top 10 signals across all domains — these represent the system's current highest-priority intelligence.

Step 3: Get Open Positions

Call list_producers (position data via portfolio producer) to retrieve:

• All live positions with current P&L
• Entry prices and current prices
• Position sizes and directions

Step 4: Web Research — Market Context

Search the web for broad crypto market context:

"crypto market news today {CURRENT_YEAR}"

Extract: major market moves, regulatory news, macro events affecting crypto.

Step 5: Web Research — Portfolio Token News

For the top 3 tokens by position size from open positions, search:

"{TOKEN} news today"

Extract: token-specific developments, catalysts, risks.

Step 6: Read Prior Brief Memory

Check memory for delta analysis:

• brief_last_summary — what was the prior brief's key message?
• brief_last_regime — has regime changed?
• brief_action_items — were prior action items addressed?

Step 7: Synthesize

Combine all data sources into a coherent brief:

1. What changed since yesterday — regime shifts, new signals, position P&L changes
2. What warrants attention — signals that diverge from positions, regime changes, large P&L moves
3. Action items — specific, actionable recommendations

Step 8: Write HTML Brief

Write a polished HTML brief to the sandbox: brief_{YYYY-MM-DD}.html

Required sections:

1. Regime Overview
   - Current regime + trend
   - Change from prior brief (if any)
   - Kill switch status

2. Market Context
   - Broad crypto market summary
   - Key macro/regulatory events
   - Market sentiment assessment

3. Portfolio Status
   - Position table: token, direction, entry, current, P&L%, size
   - Total portfolio P&L
   - Positions requiring attention (large drawdowns, target proximity)

4. Top Signals
   - Table of top 10 signals: domain, symbol, direction, confidence, timestamp
   - Notable signal clusters or divergences

5. Key Changes
   - Delta from prior brief
   - New signals not in prior brief
   - Regime changes
   - Position P&L movements

6. Action Items
   - Specific, actionable items (max 5)
   - Priority: high/medium/low
   - Examples: "Review SOL position — signal divergence", "Consider taking profit on X — target proximity"

Style with dark mode CSS:

:root {
  --bg: #0a0a0a;
  --text: #e0e0e0;
  --green: #00d084;
  --red: #ff4444;
  --amber: #ffaa00;
  --surface: #1a1a1a;
  --border: #333;
}
body {
  background: var(--bg);
  color: var(--text);
  font-family: 'Inter', -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, sans-serif;
  max-width: 900px;
  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 2rem;
  line-height: 1.6;
}
table {
  width: 100%;
  border-collapse: collapse;
  margin: 1rem 0;
}
th, td {
  padding: 0.5rem 0.75rem;
  border-bottom: 1px solid var(--border);
  text-align: left;
}
th { color: var(--amber); font-weight: 600; }
.positive { color: var(--green); }
.negative { color: var(--red); }
.warning { color: var(--amber); }
h1, h2, h3 { color: #fff; }

Step 9: Persist to Memory

Write the following memory keys:

| Key | Value | |-----|-------| | brief_last_summary | 2-3 sentence summary of this brief's key message | | brief_last_regime | Current regime classification | | brief_action_items | JSON array of action items from this brief |

Error Handling

| Failure | Action | |---------|--------| | list_producers (position data via portfolio producer) fails | Produce brief WITHOUT portfolio section. Add "⚠️ Portfolio data unavailable" note. Continue with all other sections. | | list_producers + get_latest_signal("regime_detector") fails | Retry once. If still fails, note "Regime data unavailable" and produce brief with market context only. | | list_producers + get_latest_signal per producer fails | Retry once. If still fails, note "Signal data unavailable" in Top Signals section. | | Web search fails | Try alternative queries. Note any gaps in Market Context section. | | Memory read fails | Skip delta analysis. Note "No prior brief for comparison" in Key Changes section. |

Output

1. HTML artifact — brief_{YYYY-MM-DD}.html written to sandbox
2. Memory updates — three keys persisted for next brief's delta analysis
