Risk Manager. Checks every proposed order against your limits before it can reach the broker and blocks anything over them: blocked tickers, max order size, minimum order, max position percent after the fill, the cash buffer, margin, short sales, options and crypto (off unless allowed), malformed orders, duplicates and a daily order limit. Prints PASS or BLOCK with the reason for each order and records the verdicts so trader-broker only shows an order that passed. Use when the user says…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# trader-risk

The Risk Manager is the gate between a proposal and the broker. Every order
written by trader-budget, trader-rebalance or trader-tax passes through it.
A BLOCK is final for that order: it does not go to the user for a yes, and
it does not go to the broker.

`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}` below is this skill's folder (where this SKILL.md lives).

```bash
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/check.py"             # trader/ files; writes trader/state/risk.json
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/check.py" --json
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/check.py" --no-write  # look without recording
```

## What it reads and writes

| file | what |
| --- | --- |
| `trader/orders.json` | the proposed orders |
| `trader/config.json` | the limits (trader-budget ships `config.example.json`) |
| `trader/portfolio.json` | cash and holdings; if missing, a fresh account funded with the budget |
| `trader/prices.json` | needed to size share-count orders and value holdings |
| `trader/state/broker.json` | what was placed today, for duplicates and the daily limit |
| `trader/state/risk.json` | the verdicts it writes, with a fingerprint of each exact order |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jakeschincariol/trader-skill/trader-risk@sha256:cad0891de31d9453

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.5189e79, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
