What the file says

# Strategy Pivot Designer

## Overview

Detect when a strategy's backtest iteration loop has stalled and propose structurally different strategy architectures. This skill acts as the feedback loop for the Edge pipeline (hint-extractor -> concept-synthesizer -> strategy-designer -> candidate-agent), breaking out of local optima by redesigning the strategy's skeleton rather than tweaking parameters.

## When to Use

- Backtest scores have plateaued despite multiple refinement iterations.
- A strategy shows signs of overfitting (high in-sample, low robustness).
- Transaction costs defeat the strategy's thin edge.
- Tail risk or drawdown exceeds acceptable thresholds.
- You want to explore fundamentally different strategy architectures for the same market hypothesis.

## Prerequisites

- Python 3.9+
- `PyYAML`
- Iteration history JSON (accumulated backtest-expert evaluations)
- Source strategy draft YAML (from edge-strategy-designer)

## Output

- `pivot_drafts/research_only/*.yaml` — strategy_draft compatible YAML proposals
- `pivot_drafts/exportable/*.yaml` — export-ready drafts + ticket YAML for candidate-agent
- `pivot_report_*.md` — human-readable pivot analysis
