Assess risk metrics for a stock or position including volatility, beta, VaR, and drawdown analysis. Use when user asks about risk, volatility, beta, VaR, value at risk, drawdown, or position sizing.

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

# Risk Assessment

Calculate risk metrics for stocks and positions.

## Instructions

> **Note:** If `uv` is not installed or `pyproject.toml` is not found, replace `uv run python` with `python` in all commands below.

```bash
uv run python scripts/risk.py SYMBOL [--period PERIOD] [--position-size SIZE]
```

## Arguments

- `SYMBOL` - Ticker symbol
- `--period` - Analysis period: 1mo, 3mo, 6mo, 1y (default: 1y)
- `--position-size` - Dollar amount for position-specific metrics (optional)

## Output

Returns JSON with:
- `volatility` - Historical volatility (annualized)
- `beta` - Beta vs SPY
- `var_95` - 95% Value at Risk (daily)
- `var_99` - 99% Value at Risk (daily)
- `max_drawdown` - Maximum drawdown in period
- `sharpe_ratio` - Risk-adjusted return
- `position_risk` - If position-size provided, dollar VaR

Explain what the risk metrics mean and suggest position sizing if relevant.

## Dependencies

- `numpy`
- `yfinance`

## Timezone

All timestamps and time-based calculations must use the `America/New_York` timezone. All JSON output must include `generated_at` (NY time string) and `data_delay` fields.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add staskh/trading_skills/risk-assessment@sha256:a7c8a7dbb51495a9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260430.ef6e1c4, 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.
