market-research-skills

End-to-end research workflow skill for investment analysts and policy researchers. Three scope modes the user picks at trigger time — light (4-5 page decision memo, ~15 min, 0 charts), medium (12-15 page topic brief, ~1 h, 6-10 charts), heavy (flagship report 30-40 pages / 15k+ words, ~2-3 h, 25-35+ charts, multi-stage workflow, multi-LLM, PDF + Word + WeChat + HTML derivations). Reports default to English; the AI replies in the user's chat language. Battle-tested on real macro/policy/equity reports (e.g. Saudi Vision 2030 deep-dive). Triggers when user types /analyst-research, /flagship-research, or describes needs like "research report", "topic analysis", "investment research", "做研报", "投研报告", "主题分析", "深度分析", "policy assessment", "industry deep-dive". Not for: pure news commentary (use topic-brief), slide decks (use deckster-slide-generator), one-shot Q&A.

Build and query a local Markdown knowledge base ("vault"). TWO functions — (1) CONVERT raw files (PDF, Word/docx, PowerPoint/pptx, Excel/xlsx, csv/tsv, images, html, md/txt, json/yaml/code, audio/video) into clean Markdown with retrieval-friendly frontmatter; local-first (pandoc / python-pptx / openpyxl / pymupdf4llm / whisper), with cloud OCR (MinerU) only as a fallback. (2) ANSWER questions over the resulting vault with retrieval discipline — self-monitor coverage, flag missing/lossy content, and propose Maps-of-Content (MOCs). Triggers: "build/sync my local knowledge base", "convert these files to markdown for AI", "整理我的资料库", "把文件转成 md 给 AI 读", "本地知识库", "读我的本地 vault 回答", "这个主题我的资料里怎么说". Not for: one-off web research, or files that are already in a single doc you can read directly.

Generate a topic-focused briefing in HTML from public news sources. Use when user asks for a briefing / observation / digest / 简报 / 观察 on any subject — region (Middle East, ASEAN, India), industry (semiconductors, EV supply chain, AI), policy issue (AI regulation, critical minerals, cross-border payments), institution (Fed, ECB, IMF), or theme. Output is a single self-contained HTML file with blue-color "TOPIC BRIEF" branding, optimized for both browser viewing and direct copy-paste into 微信公众号 / WeChat Official Account editor. Walks through 5 steps with one user confirmation midway. Do NOT use this skill for short summaries (<1000 字), single-piece news commentary, or already-defined report templates.

Use when verifying information (fact, number, quote, event, statement) against authoritative primary sources, or cross-checking a number via one-level metric decomposition (Z = P × Q). Triggers: "verify X", "is this true", "find the original source", "where is this number from", "two sources disagree", "is it true X never did Y". Covers five scenarios: (1) basic truthfulness check, (2) completeness / out-of-context quoting, (3) one-level reasoning verification, (4) negative-statement handling, (5) multi-source conflict side-by-side output. Dig into whitelisted primary sources only (user-supplied files, official websites & databases, authoritative industry sources); cited reports / charts / datasets must be downloaded and read locally to count as verified — if download is blocked, hand the link to the user. If nothing can be found, plainly state "cannot verify" rather than guessing, patching, or citing secondary paraphrases. Always reply in the user's question language.
