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

ib-pmcc-advisor 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/pmcc_advisor.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 — 179 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

IB PMCC Advisor

Analyzes all PMCC (diagonal call spread) positions in the IB portfolio and provides actionable advice on the short leg: assignment risk, P&L projections per day, and ranked roll recommendations.

IB Connection

TWS or IB Gateway must be running locally with API enabled:

  • Paper trading — port 7497
  • Live trading — port 7496
  • IB_PORT env var — default port when --port is omitted (e.g. IB_PORT=4001 for a Gateway container). Precedence: --port flag > IB_PORT > built-in default. Set it in the shell or a .env file.

Port fallback: If the configured port fails, automatically retry on the other port. If the retry succeeds, save to memory which account type worked (live/paper) and reuse it for all IB skill calls in this and future sessions — until the user explicitly asks for the other account. If both ports fail, ask the user to verify that TWS or IB Gateway is running with API access enabled.

Instructions

Step 1: Run the script

uv run python .claude/skills/ib-pmcc-advisor/scripts/pmcc_advisor.py [--port PORT] [--account ACCOUNT] [--min-roll-dte N] [--price-mode mid|last]

The script returns JSON to stdout. Parse it and use it for the response below.

Step 2: Default response — brief inline summary

Unless the user explicitly asks for a report or JSON output, respond with a concise inline summary only. No files saved.

Format:

  • One line per spread: SYMBOL — short $STRIKE exp DATE (δ=X, assign=Y%) — [HOLD / ROLL to $STRIKE]
  • Lead with any red flags (assignment > 40%, DTE < 7, earnings within short window).
  • For flagged spreads, add one extra line with the top roll candidate and net credit.
  • Clean positions: the one-line summary is enough.

Step 3: Generate files only when explicitly requested

MD report — triggered by: "save a report", "generate a report", "write a report", "markdown", "PDF".

Read .claude/skills/ib-pmcc-advisor/templates/markdown-template.md for full formatting instructions. Save to sandbox/pmcc_advisor_{ACCOUNT}_{YYYY-MM-DD}_{HHmm}.md. Use first account ID; derive timestamp from generated_at.

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.
