us-equity-ic-rigor

us-equity-ic-rigor is a skill for Claude Code from equity-rigor/us-equity-research. It costs 703 tokens per session (13,607 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research and review framework for investment work on US-listed companies, including ordinary shares and American depositary receipts. It adds institutional-style checks to research, financial models, evidence, and investment memos.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for investment committee memos, pre-reads, debate scripts, shareholder letters, earnings preparation, earnings summaries, or kill memos. It checks the work with supplied verifier scripts and structured data rules.
Why use it?
It helps catch unsupported claims, inconsistent figures, and missing analysis before research is used in an investment discussion or decision.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

us-equity-ic-rigor scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 20 executable files (scripts/verify_bank_metrics.py, scripts/verify_bear_bridge.py, scripts/verify_consensus_variance.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 304 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CRITICAL: Verifier Script Path Resolution

This plugin bundles its verifier scripts at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ and JSON schemas at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/schemas/. All scripts/verify_*.py references in this SKILL resolve to that location.

Execution requirements (non-negotiable)

1. Use the explicit plugin-root path for every script invocation.

python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/verify_eps_pe.py --memo-json outputs/<TICKER>_structured.json
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/verify_view_defensibility.py --memo-json outputs/<TICKER>_structured.json

If ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} is not set in the current Claude Code version, the plugin is installed at ~/.claude/plugins/<plugin-name>/<version>/ (e.g., ~/.claude/plugins/us-equity-ic-rigor/0.5.0/). Use that absolute path as a fallback.

2. NEVER fall back to "evaluate gates analytically."

If you cannot reach a verifier script for any reason (file not found, permission denied, Python import error, missing pydantic dependency, etc.), STOP execution of the current phase. Report the error to the user with the exact command attempted, the exact error message returned, and a request to either (a) clone the repo at https://github.com/equity-rigor/us-equity-research and run Claude Code from that directory, OR (b) manually copy the missing scripts to the plugin install location.

Do NOT proceed to produce a memo with gate statuses you judged yourself. Self-graded gates are not gates. They are LLM opinions about LLM output.

3. The verifier scripts are this framework's distinguishing feature. A memo produced without programmatic verification has no claim to the "20-gate verification" rigor advertised in the README. Self-graded gates produce a memo of the same quality as a careful prompt template — useful, but not what was promised.

4. Operator-explicit override (the only allowed degradation path). If the user explicitly says "I understand the verifiers won't run; proceed analytically anyway," THEN you may produce the memo with analytically-judged gate statuses. In that case you MUST set memo_metadata.gates_evaluated_analytically: true in <TICKER>_structured.json, include the disclaimer "Gate statuses in this memo were evaluated analytically by the language model; the programmatic verifier scripts did not execute for this output" in the IC memo header, set every gate's evaluation_method field to "analytical_llm", and cap the rubric score at 7.5 regardless of mechanical compliance.

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.
