## What it does

The skill walks candle sequences looking for familiar shapes: doji, hammer, inverted hammer, bullish and bearish engulfing, morning and evening star, three white soldiers, three black crows, plus head & shoulders, double top and bottom, and cup & handle. Every hit gets a name, a type (reversal or continuation), a direction, and a reliability score from 0.0 to 1.0. Results come back sorted by that score.

It does not collect data. Candles have to be ingested first through `market-ingest`, otherwise there is nothing to scan. Reads go through `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search` or `memory_list` on the `market-data` namespace: the `memory_*` family routes by namespace, while `agentdb_hierarchical-*` routes by tier, so namespaced reads need `memory_*`.

Storage has two paths. The typed one uses `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_pattern-store` with `type: 'market-pattern'` and no `namespace` argument, since ReasoningBank handles routing; if the bridge is unavailable the fallback writes to the reserved `pattern` namespace with `controller: 'memory-store-fallback'`. The plain path is `memory_store --namespace market-patterns`, which does respect the namespace. The call takes a symbol and an optional period: `<symbol> [--period 1D]`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

```bash
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill market-pattern -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/market-pattern/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill market-pattern -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill market-pattern -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install ruvnet/ruflo market-pattern
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo --path plugins/ruflo-market-data/skills/market-pattern
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill market-pattern -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo/tree/HEAD/plugins/ruflo-market-data/skills/market-pattern/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- spot doji and hammer shapes in ingested candles
- tell a reversal pattern from a continuation one
- rank detected patterns by reliability score
- store a pattern annotation under a key
- review pattern history for one symbol and period

## Example prompts
- Find candlestick patterns for `AAPL` on the `1D` period
- Run `market-pattern` on `BTC-USD` and sort by reliability
- Store the detected pattern in the `market-patterns` namespace

# Market Pattern

Scan ingested OHLCV data for known candlestick patterns, classify them by type and reliability, and store for future reference.

## When to use

When you need to identify candlestick patterns (doji, hammer, engulfing, head-shoulders, etc.) in market data. Requires data to be ingested first via `market-ingest`.

## Steps

1. **Load candles** -- call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search` (or `memory_list`) on the `market-data` namespace to retrieve normalized OHLCV data for the symbol and period. The `memory_*` tool family routes by namespace; the `agentdb_hierarchical-*` family does NOT (it routes by tier), so use `memory_*` for namespaced reads.
2. **Scan for patterns** -- iterate through candle sequences looking for:
   - Single-candle: doji (open ~= close), hammer (long lower wick), inverted hammer
   - Two-candle: bullish/bearish engulfing
   - Three-candle: morning star, evening star, three white soldiers, three black crows
   - Multi-candle: head & shoulders, double top/bottom, cup & handle
3. **Classify** -- for each detection, assign: pattern name, type (reversal/continuation), direction (bullish/bearish), reliability score (0.0-1.0)
4. **Rank** -- sort by reliability score descending
5. **Store** -- two paths (per ruflo-cost-tracker ADR-0001 dual-path pattern):
   - **Pattern-store (typed, recommended)**: `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__agentdb_pattern-store` with `type: 'market-pattern'`. Don't pass a `namespace` arg — ReasoningBank routes it; on bridge unavailability the fallback writes to the reserved `pattern` namespace with `controller: 'memory-store-fallback'` (see ruflo-agentdb ADR-0001).
   - **Plain store (namespace-routable)**: `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_store --namespace market-patterns` — this DOES respect the `market-patterns` namespace because `memory_*` is namespace-routed.
6. **Report** -- display: pattern name, date range, direction, reliability, suggested action

## CLI alternative

```bash
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest memory search --query "bullish reversal patterns" --namespace market-patterns
````
