AF ibkr-autonomous-trader
Autonomous paper trading research agent for Interactive Brokers (IBKR). Use this skill whenever the user wants to connect to IBKR, execute trades, manage positions, analyze strategies, run paper trading workflows, backtest signals, or build any automated trading system with TWS or IBKR Gateway. Triggers on: "trade", "IBKR", "Interactive Brokers", "paper trading", "order execution", "position management", "quant strategy", "bracket order", "stop loss", "ib_insync", or any mention of automated trading. Always use this skill for trading-related tasks — even exploratory ones.

How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
