SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Investors and analysts need timely company news, earnings dates, and dividend schedules to understand market moves, but gathering this data manually across sources is slow and fragmented. This Skill centralizes news search, earnings history, and dividend lookups through one MCP server. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Market News Search: Query financial news via Tavily web search with ticker focus, time ranges, and result limits to find catalysts behind price moves. - Earnings Calendars: Retrieve past and upcoming earnings for a ticker, including EPS estimates versus actuals and surprise percentages. - Dividend History: Look up dividend amounts, ex-dates, payment dates, and yields for a specific ticker. - Use Case: A user asks why NVDA moved today. The Skill searches recent news for catalysts, pulls the latest earnings surprise, and reports findings with sources and timestamps, while deferring price confirmation to a market data skill. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to find the latest news and upcoming earnings date for a specific stock ticker such as AAPL.

Frequently Asked Questions about obai-events-news

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search for stock market news by ticker?▼

Use the events_news_search_market_news_tool with a natural language query and an optional ticker parameter to focus results. You can set time_range to day, week, month, or year and limit results up to 20 articles.

How do I get earnings dates and EPS surprises for a stock?▼

Call the events_news_get_earnings_tool with the ticker and a limit such as 10. It returns past and upcoming earnings with EPS estimates versus actuals, revenue, and surprise percentages.

Can this skill confirm why a stock price moved?▼

It identifies likely news catalysts behind a move but has no price data. Price confirmation must come from a separate market data source such as the obai-market-data skill.

Does the news search support dividend and ex-date lookups?▼

Dividend data comes from a dedicated tool, events_news_get_dividends_tool, which returns amounts, ex-dates, payment dates, and yield for a ticker. News search is separate and covers articles and market events.

What happens when a tool call fails or returns no data?▼

The skill marks the output as [DATA UNAVAILABLE: reason], continues with any other available data, and does not retry since the server handles retries internally. It never fabricates news or figures.
