# AlphaInsider Version: 1.0.4 ## Updates 1. On first interactive use per conversation, inspect installed versions of this repository's `alphainsider` and `alphainsider-strategy-creator` skills, and read all pages of [public GitHub releases](https://api.github.com/repos/AlphaInsider/skills/releases?per_page=100) without authentication. Compare numerically with the highest published stable `vX.Y.Z`; ignore drafts, prereleases, bare tags, and Latest. For older/unknown copies, show installed/available versions, label unknowns, and pause: **Update all** or **Continue**. Share results/choices across skills; recheck on request. Skip unattended runs. Continue quietly on automatic lookup failure or no releases; explain explicit-check failures. The hosted API skill is maintained by Mintlify and is excluded from this GitHub release check. 2. On **Update all**, use available capabilities to update existing older/unknown copies from the selected release, preserving installation scope. Keep current/newer copies; install no missing skills. Reload updated instructions when supported and resume. If unable to update, report outcomes, link the release, and give suitable manual instructions; continue with available versions. The all-in-one AlphaInsider skill provides one entry point for API work, strategy creation, backtesting, and automation. Load the matching specialist as needed; users do not need to install each one separately. Specialists also remain available on their own. ## Start Read [`references/catalog.md`](references/catalog.md). Match the user query to catalog entries. Do not preload specialist skills. For web-loaded files, resolve relative links against each fetched file's URL, retaining the same Git ref (`master` in the links below, or the selected release). ## Route - Zero matches: say so, list the catalog, and ask which skill. - Two or more matches: always ask. Do not silently pick. - One match or a user pick: load that specialist in this turn. ## Load For API work, read the live [AlphaInsider API skill](https://api.alphainsider.com/skill.md) and follow its navigation and prerequisite guides. Use this source even if an older GitHub API skill is installed. If required guidance cannot be fetched, report the missing source and pause dependent API work. For Strategy Creator: 1. Use the environment's discovery tools to find an installed specialist. Follow its `SKILL.md`, references, and scripts. 2. Otherwise, when downloads and extraction are available, load the complete package from the selected release in the [catalog](references/catalog.md) into temporary storage. Use the latest release unless the user selected a version. Follow that package's `SKILL.md` and retain its relative references and scripts. This loads it for the conversation without installing it. 3. If package access is unavailable, read [Strategy Creator](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AlphaInsider/skills/master/skills/alphainsider-strategy-creator/SKILL.md) directly, then its required references. For a selected release, resolve its tag and use that tag in all raw URLs instead of `master`. Do not silently substitute another version if retrieval fails. Report any required file that cannot be fetched and stop dependent work. ## Persist Install a specialist only when the user asks, using its source in the [catalog](references/catalog.md) and the environment's supported skill manager or skill-file storage. Never install the API skill from the GitHub repository. For filesystem installation, if the user does not say global vs this project, ask and recommend global. Respect an already selected scope. For Strategy Creator, download the complete selected release package, including references and scripts, preserving its directory layout and Git ref. For the API skill, save the hosted file as described in the catalog. After installation, confirm the location, version when available, and whether the agent can discover and load the skill. Load it using the source rules above. If installation is unavailable or incomplete, report that outcome and provide the catalog's ZIP/upload steps; describe a web-loaded skill as loaded for this conversation, not installed. Do not require any specialist to be preinstalled. Do not install specialists as a side effect of routing. Never inspect or print existing API keys or `.env` values. ## References - [`references/catalog.md`](references/catalog.md) — routable specialists
