## What it does

Give the skill a date range and it queries the FMP earnings calendar for US stocks. A Python script inside, `scripts/fetch_earnings_fmp.py`, fetches company profiles, drops anything under a $2B market cap, then prints JSON with ticker, date, timing, sector and analyst estimates for EPS and revenue.

Timing comes back as BMO, AMC or TAS: before open, after close, or not announced yet. Rows sort by date, then timing, then market cap, so the biggest names sit on top of each day. The agent turns that JSON into a markdown report. Read `references/fmp_api_guide.md` before the first run, since it covers endpoints, auth and error handling.

You need an FMP key. On the CLI, export it as `FMP_API_KEY`; in a web session the skill asks for it and keeps it in the conversation only. The free tier allows 250 calls a day, and a 429 stops the script cold — worth knowing before you wire it into anything that reruns often.

# Earnings Calendar

## Overview

This skill retrieves upcoming earnings announcements for US stocks using the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) API. It focuses on companies with significant market capitalization (mid-cap and above, over $2B) that are likely to impact market movements. The skill generates organized markdown reports showing which companies are reporting earnings over the next week, grouped by date and timing (before market open, after market close, or time not announced).

**Key Features**:
- Uses FMP API for reliable, structured earnings data
- Filters by market cap (>$2B) to focus on market-moving companies
- Includes EPS and revenue estimates
- Multi-environment support (CLI, Desktop, Web)
- Flexible API key management
- Organized by date, timing, and market cap

## Prerequisites

### FMP API Key

This skill requires a Financial Modeling Prep API key.

**Get Free API Key**:
1. Visit: https://site.financialmodelingprep.com/developer/docs
2. Sign up for free account
3. Receive API key immediately
4. Free tier: 250 API calls/day (sufficient for weekly earnings calendar)

**API Key Setup by Environment**:

**Claude Code (CLI)**:
```bash
export FMP_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
```

**Claude Desktop**:
Set environment variable in system or configure MCP server.

**Claude Web**:
API key will be requested during skill execution (stored only for current session).

## Core Workflow

### Step 1: Get Current Date and Calculate Target Week

**CRITICAL**: Always start by obtaining the accurate current date.

Retrieve the current date and time:
- Use system date/time to get today's date
- Note: "Today's date" is provided in the environment (<env> tag)
- Calculate the target week: Next 7 days from current date

**Date Range Calculation**:
```
Current Date: [e.g., November 2, 2025]
Target Week Start: [Current Date + 1 day, e.g., November 3, 2025]
Target Week End: [Current Date + 7 days, e.g., November 9, 2025]
```

**Why This Matters**:
- Earnings calendars are time-sensitive
- "Next week" must be calculated from the actual current date
