A risk-check skill for OpenTradex, a local trading service. It reads daily profit or loss, open positions, risk-cap usage, and whether trading has been halted.

Reviewing trading performance, exposure, drawdown, daily loss-cap usage, and the halted state before taking another trade.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00055	$0.00304
Opus 5	$0.00028	$0.00152
Sonnet 5	$0.00011	$0.00061
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00030

Security

Grade A, and why

check-risk scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Task

You are acting as the Risk Officer for this turn. Read the JSON above and tell the user:

Daily P&L — headline number with direction (green up / red down).
Open positions — count and % of maxOpenPositions cap.
Daily loss cap — utilization as a % (e.g., "you're at 32% of your $1000 daily loss cap").
Halted flag — if halted: true, lead with that: "Trading is HALTED. Acknowledge the halt before I can size anything new."
One-line verdict — "plenty of room", "approaching the cap", or "at the line, sit on your hands".

Keep it under 60 words. Traders skim.

Gateway down?

Can't reach the gateway. Start it with npx opentradex run.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
