Capabilities

Tools 9

get_daily_news_recap

Get one precomputed AI daily news recap from the database. Use this when the user asks for a daily market recap, today's/yesterday's AI news summary, end-of-day narrative, or what mattered on a specific date. If date is omitted, this automatically returns the latest date with a daily recap, so the AI can answer without asking the user to choose a date. The daily recap synthesizes that date's intraday recap buckets into one market narrative. Set includeIntraday=true only when the user asks how the daily recap was built or wants the source intraday bucket headlines.

Discovered
get_intraday_news_recaps

Get precomputed AI intraday news recap buckets from the database. Use this when the user asks for intraday news analysis, same-day market narrative, what happened during the trading day, or a specific recap bucket. If bucketId is provided, this returns exactly that bucket. Otherwise it returns all buckets for date, ordered chronologically. If neither date nor bucketId is provided, it automatically returns the latest date that has intraday recap data, so the AI does not need to ask the user for a date first. Returned fields include bucket time window in US Eastern Time, source/news counts, headline, market narrative, and affected tickers. This is read-only and never triggers new AI analysis.

Discovered
get_live_news

Get the latest live financial news from major sources (Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Bloomberg, Financial Times, CNBC, Reuters, Yahoo Finance). Returns pinned headlines (top stories, at offset=0 only) and recent news cards. Each card includes source name, timestamp (ET), title, full article text, and relevant stock tickers. By default, cross-source duplicates of the same story are folded into one card and the other outlets covering it are listed under 'Also reported by' (pass clusterDedupe=false to get every outlet's card separately). Use the 'before' cursor from previous responses to paginate forward through older news.

Discovered
get_options_data

Get options chain data and Greek exposure analysis for a stock ticker. Includes spot price, available expiration dates, key levels (gamma flip, call/put walls, max pain, net GEX, bullish score, implied move, P/C OI ratio, total OI/volume), human-readable positioning insights, and per-strike net Greek exposure profiles. Supported Greeks: gamma, vanna, charm, delta, theta, vega. Useful for analyzing options market positioning, dealer hedging flows, and identifying key support/resistance levels. Covers only tickers sellthenews.org already tracks (widely watched US stocks and ETFs); other tickers are not supported. Less-watched tickers can carry older data: check Updated.

Discovered
get_weekly_news_recap

Get one precomputed AI weekly news recap from the database. Use this when the user asks for a weekly market recap, this week's/last week's AI news summary, or the dominant market themes across a week. Weekly recaps follow ISO week ids in YYYY-Www format and cover Monday through Sunday in US Eastern dates. If weekId is provided, it is used directly. If date is provided, the tool returns the week containing that date. If neither weekId nor date is provided, this automatically returns the latest available weekly recap. Set includeDaily=true only when the user asks for the day-by-day inputs or wants daily source headlines.

Discovered
get_wsb_analysis

Get the AI-generated analysis report of r/wallstreetbets daily discussion threads. Reports cover market sentiment, trending tickers, notable trades, community mood, and contrarian signals. Each day may have multiple analysis runs as new comments accumulate. Use 'offset' to step back through earlier report posts and 'run' to view a specific analysis run of one post.

Discovered
get_wsb_discussion

Get raw Reddit comments from the r/wallstreetbets daily discussion thread, top-level comments newest first. Returns one comment per line in a compact threaded format, with 2-space indentation for each reply level; a comment's own line breaks show as ' / '. Each line starts with [S ↩N]: S is the comment's Reddit score (upvotes), refreshed about every 30 minutes for each thread's ~500 best-scored comments (the header gives the time; the newest comments have had little time to collect votes), and ↩N means N replies so far (all levels, omitted when none). Threads whose scores were never refreshed (before 2026-10-25) have no vote counts: their lines show only [↩N]. Bot commands, comments scored 0 or below, and short comments nobody replied to or upvoted are filtered out. Useful for directly analyzing retail investor sentiment, popular tickers, and trading ideas.

Discovered
list_news_recaps

Discover which precomputed AI news recaps are available through the website Time Machine API. Use this automatically when a user asks what AI market recaps exist, asks for an unspecified historical daily/weekly/intraday recap, or needs valid dates/weekIds before calling a detail tool. This returns lightweight metadata only from the website Time Machine API: recap type, date or ISO week, and intraday bucket count. It does not return full narratives. For full text, call get_intraday_news_recaps, get_daily_news_recap, or get_weekly_news_recap using the returned date/weekId/bucketId. Dates are US Eastern calendar dates. Weekly recaps use ISO weeks in YYYY-Www format, Monday through Sunday.
