What problem does it solve? Institutional desks struggle to see which upcoming earnings, macro releases, and corporate events actually threaten their positions. This Skill turns raw calendars and exposure data into a prioritized event-risk verdict with timing confidence and surprise-risk assessment. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Catalyst Prioritization: Ranks upcoming events by relevance, time sensitivity, surprise potential, and exposure overlap across positions, sectors, and factors. - Timing Confidence Handling: Separates confirmed schedules from estimated or conflicting dates and flags incomplete timing explicitly. - Structured Verdict Output: Delivers one of four event-risk verdicts (Clean calendar, Watchlist, Elevated event risk, Immediate action needed) with an eight-part response structure and a mandatory 1-to-5 scorecard. - Use Case: A portfolio manager supplies an earnings calendar, an FOMC schedule, and current holdings; the Skill flags that three holdings report earnings in the same week as a CPI print, rates the cluster as elevated event risk, and lists the de-risking actions to consider. ## Quick Start Use the catalyst-calendar-monitor skill to review my earnings calendar, macro schedule, and current holdings for upcoming event risk.
