Use in a release pipeline to block production deploys inside macro-event windows such as FOMC, CPI, payrolls and expiry, and inside timezone-aware session windows, with a named two-person override.
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 in CI/CD deployment gateways and SRE release controls for production trading systems. Shipping a change minutes before an FOMC decision or into the closing auction puts a fresh binary into the highest-volatility, lowest-recoverability window of the day. This module intercepts a deployment request, decides it against registered freeze windows, and returns a structured audit record.
Two window types are supported:
- **Macro event windows** — one-off, anchored to a release instant with pre/post buffers. The FOMC statement is released at 2:00 p.m. ET ("For release at 2:00 p.m. EDT" on the Fed's own statement PDFs) with the Chair's press conference at 2:30 p.m. ET; BLS publishes CPI and the Employment Situation at 8:30 a.m. ET. Expiry days (triple witching, monthly opex) are registered the same way.
- **Daily session windows** — recurring, anchored to a local wall-clock time in an IANA timezone, so they follow daylight-saving transitions instead of drifting an hour twice a year.

How to install
mdr add himanshuj16/algo-trading-skills/deployment-freeze-windows-around-market-events@sha256:0973dd9017564d63The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
