About alpaca-skills

Alpaca Skills Open agent skills for Alpaca's Trading API and Broker API. Each skill is a file with step-by-step instructions your AI coding assistant follows when you ask it to complete a task, such as running a historical backtest, onboarding Broker API accounts, moving money, placing orders, or consuming real-time events. Skills provide shared instructions, guardrails, and reporting standards so agents produce more consistent results across runs. Prerequisites Alpaca CLI — install via Homebrew or Go: Alpaca API credentials — paper, sandbox, or live keys as appropriate for the skill.
