Commodity Profile Generator

Generate comprehensive commodity profiles by orchestrating calls to multiple mineral-claw skills. Profiles cover production data (BGS), trade flows (Comtrade), supply chain risk metrics, recent research, export restriction policies, and web intelligence from news/blog/government sources.

Usage

Full profile:

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Lithium"

Select sections:

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Cobalt" --sections production,risk,intel

JSON output:

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Rare earths" --format json

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Default
--commodity	Commodity name (BGS naming)	Required
--year	Target year	latest available
--sections	Comma-separated sections: production, trade, risk, research, policy, intel	all
--intel-max-results	Max web-intel records to process	20
--format	Output format: summary, json	summary

Profile Sections

Section	Data Source	Description
production	bgs-production	Top producers, global output, rankings
trade	comtrade-trade	Import/export flows, major partners
risk	supply-chain-analysis	HHI, NIR, top-3 share, trend
research	literature-meta-search	Recent publications, citation leaders
policy	export-restrictions	Active restrictions, policy changes
intel	minerals-news-monitor + minerals-gov-monitor + minerals-web-ingest	Recent web signals, policy tags, high-confidence findings

Examples

# Full lithium profile
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Lithium"

# Cobalt production, risk, and web-intel
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Cobalt" --sections production,risk,intel

# Graphite profile in JSON
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Graphite" --format json --year 2022

Notes

• Orchestrates multiple skill scripts (may take 30-90 seconds)
• Some sections may fail if API keys are not set (warnings printed to stderr)
• Trade section requires UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY
• Research section requires SERPAPI_KEY for Scholar results
• Intel section requires requests and beautifulsoup4 in the active Python environment
• Intel ingest can optionally use Firecrawl when FIRECRAWL_API_KEY is set
• For individual data queries, use source skills directly
