# FXMacroData Calendar

Retrieve official-source macro release-calendar events from FXMacroData. Use

this skill when a trade plan needs event timing, confirmed release dates, or a

top-tier macro risk check.

## Workflow

1. Run the calendar script:

```bash

python3 skills/fxmacrodata-calendar/scripts/fetch_calendar.py --currency usd --min-tier 1

```

2. Review `events[]` for top-tier releases.

Treat a nonzero exit as an unverified event-risk state, never as an empty

calendar. Only a successful response containing `events: []` establishes

- that no matching events were returned.

+ that no matching events were returned. The client accepts results only when

+ the response currency matches the request and `data_quality` confirms an

+ official, current, non-proxy, non-fallback, timestamp-complete,

+ point-in-time-safe source. Each event must include an announcement timestamp

+ and a non-empty release identifier.

3. Fold the event timing into the trade plan:

- pause new entries around high-impact releases;

- reduce leverage or position size;

- schedule follow-up review after the actual value is available;

- explain which event and timestamp drove the adjustment.

## Authentication

Set `FXMACRODATA_API_KEY` for authenticated FXMacroData endpoints. Public USD

calendar rows can be fetched without a key. The client uses the canonical

`https://api.fxmacrodata.com/v1` endpoint and accepts `--min-tier` values 1,

2, or 3 only.
