Point your agent at a ticker and it pulls a live quote, the recent price trend, and the headlines driving it, then hands you a tight analyst-style brief. Real market data, machine-synthesized, ~$0.10.

The prompt


What runs

  1. POST /alphavantage/v1/search — resolve the ticker (skip if you already have it) (~$0.02)
  2. POST /alphavantage/v1/quote — real-time price, change, volume (~$0.02)
  3. POST /alphavantage/v1/daily — daily OHLCV for the trend (~$0.02)
  4. POST /newsapi/v1/search — recent headlines on the company (~$0.02)
  5. POST /anthropic/v1/messages — Claude synthesizes the brief (~$0.02)
For an IPO / newly-listed name, lean on steps 1 + 4 (symbol search + news) — Alpha Vantage’s quote/daily light up once the stock is trading. The recipe shape is identical; you just weight news over price history.

SDK


Expected output


Extend it

  • Add Perplexity (/perplexity/v1/chat/completions) for a web-grounded “what changed this week” with citations
  • Compare a basket — run the chain for 3 tickers in parallel and have Claude rank them
  • Swap NewsAPI for SerpAPI (/serpapi/v1/search) to pull Google Finance / analyst-rating snippets
  • Pipe the brief into Resend (/resend/v1/emails) for a daily pre-market email to yourself
