Install Prompt

Paste this into Claude Code to set it up:

I want to add the /analyze-stock skill to my Claude Code setup.

Create the directory ~/.claude/skills/analyze-stock/ and inside it create SKILL.md with the stock analysis workflow.

The skill should:
- Accept a stock ticker symbol
- Trigger the stock-analyst agent for deep research
- Read the finance knowledge base for analysis frameworks
- Fetch live market data via Yahoo Finance MCP
- Write a comprehensive analysis file with valuation, risks, and recommendation

After creating the file, the skill is immediately available via /analyze-stock.

01What It Does

Deep equity research from the terminal

Type /analyze-stock AAPL and Claude launches the stock-analyst agent, which reads your finance knowledge base for analysis frameworks, fetches live market data through the Yahoo Finance MCP, and writes a comprehensive analysis file covering fundamentals, valuation, competitive positioning, risks, and a clear recommendation.

Read finance knowledge base

Loads analysis frameworks, valuation models, and sector specific checklists from your personal finance knowledge repository.

Fetch live market data

Pulls current price, historical prices, financials, earnings dates, dividends, and analyst recommendations via the Yahoo Finance MCP.

Run analysis

Applies fundamental analysis: revenue growth, margins, cash flow, debt ratios, valuation multiples, and competitive moat assessment.

Write analysis file

Saves a comprehensive markdown report with sections for overview, financials, valuation, risks, catalysts, and a clear buy/hold/sell recommendation.

02How to Use

Usage

Run /analyze-stock NVDA to get a full analysis of NVIDIA. The skill delegates to the stock-analyst agent, which handles all data fetching and framework application. The output file is saved to your finance context directory.

Single ticker: provide one ticker symbol for a deep dive analysis.

Persistent output: analysis is saved as a markdown file you can reference later.

Agent delegation: the skill triggers the stock-analyst agent, which has specialized prompts for equity research.

03Dependencies

Required components

This skill works best with the Yahoo Finance MCP server for live market data and the stock-analyst agent for specialized analysis prompts. Without these, the skill will still run but with limited data access and a generic analysis framework.
