backtesting-frameworks

backtesting-frameworks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tmolavi/mcp-agent-skills-hub. It costs 45 tokens per session (260 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of backtesting-frameworks, MIT.

A framework for testing trading strategies against historical market data. It accounts for common errors such as using information that would not have been known at the time, excluding failed companies, and ignoring trading costs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build backtests, validate trading algorithms, compare strategy variations, and run walk-forward tests.
Why use it?
It helps produce more realistic estimates of how a strategy might have performed, without presenting historical results as a promise of future returns.

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

backtesting-frameworks 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 5d 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.

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.

What it actually says

Backtesting Frameworks

Build robust, production-grade backtesting systems that avoid common pitfalls and produce reliable strategy performance estimates.

Use this skill when

  • Developing trading strategy backtests
  • Building backtesting infrastructure
  • Validating strategy performance and robustness
  • Avoiding common backtesting biases
  • Implementing walk-forward analysis

Do not use this skill when

  • You need live trading execution or investment advice
  • Historical data quality is unknown or incomplete
  • The task is only a quick performance summary

Instructions

  • Define hypothesis, universe, timeframe, and evaluation criteria.
  • Build point-in-time data pipelines and realistic cost models.
  • Implement event-driven simulation and execution logic.
  • Use train/validation/test splits and walk-forward testing.
  • If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.

Safety

  • Do not present backtests as guarantees of future performance.
  • Avoid providing financial or investment advice.

Resources

  • resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples.

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.
