- description
- Produce a situational brief on a single stock/ticker — its recent high-relevance news, insider activity, and what to watch next — using the AlphaAI MCP. Use when the user asks to "brief me on <ticker>", "what's going on with <company>", "catch me up on NVDA", or wants a quick read on one name.
# Stock brief
Give a tight, decision-useful read on **one ticker** from AlphaAI's enriched
feed. Not a price quote — a *news* brief: what's been happening, who's buying or
selling, and what to keep an eye on.
## Steps
1. **Resolve the ticker.** If the user gave a company name, not a symbol, call
`alphai_tickers(q=...)` to find it. If `alphai_ticker_news` returns
`unknown_ticker=true`, tell the user and stop — don't invent coverage.
2. **Pull the ticker feed.** Call `alphai_ticker_news(ticker, collapse_stories=true)`.
`collapse_stories` folds syndicated reprints into one row each and adds a
`sources_count` corroboration signal — prefer it for a clean brief. Insider
news is included by default; keep it.
3. **Optional context.** If the user wants the wider tape, call
`alphai_trending(limit=5)` and note any market-level story that touches this
name or its sector.
4. **Deep-dive on demand.** If one story clearly drives the brief and the user
wants detail, fetch it with `alphai_article(uid)` for the full enrichment
(ticker analysis, key entities). The article *body* is not served — work from
the enrichment and summary.
## Output
Keep it to a screen. Structure:
- **One-line read** — the single most important thing about this name right now.
- **Top stories** — 3–5 bullets, each: headline · relevance score · one-clause
"why it matters". Lead with the highest `relevance_score`.
- **Insider activity** — any Form 4 / 13F rows from the feed: who, buy or sell,
size if given. "No notable insider activity in the window" is a valid line.
- **Watch next** — 1–2 concrete things that would change the picture.
## Guardrails
- Every story carries a 1–10 `relevance_score`; lead with the high ones and say
the score so the user can calibrate.
- This is news, not advice. Don't issue buy/sell calls or price targets —
summarize what the reporting says and let the user decide.
- If the feed is thin, say so plainly rather than padding. A short honest brief
beats a long speculative one.
