Use before expanding a strategy from a small basket to a large universe, to forecast CPU, memory and network bandwidth from per-symbol measurements. A first-order procurement estimate, not a load test.
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
## When to Use Use this skill when preparing to scale a quantitative strategy from a small basket of symbols (e.g., 50 tech stocks) to a massive universe (e.g., Russell 3000 or global crypto pairs). The engine models the expected network bandwidth (Mbps), memory footprint (GB), and CPU core requirements based on peak market data tick rates, ensuring your infrastructure is scaled proactively to prevent latency spikes and dropped packets. ## When NOT to Use - **As a substitute for measurement.** This is a first-order sizing model for a *procurement* decision. It does not model queueing delay distributions, NUMA effects, cache behaviour, GC pauses or kernel bypass. Before committing to a design, replay real captures at target rate. - **When per-symbol rates are wildly skewed and you need a tight answer.** The model multiplies one peak rate by the symbol count. Real message rates follow a heavy-tailed distribution — a handful of names dominate — so a uniform peak applied across a 3,000-symbol universe overestimates aggregate load, while a uniform *average* underestimates the hot symbols that actually break your feed handler.

How to install
mdr add himanshuj16/algo-trading-skills/capacity-planning-for-symbol-universe-growth@sha256:ee1bcfae393450c5The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
