# Cline / Roo Code Instructions for Algo-Trading-Skills

1. **Skill Discovery**: Consult `index.json` or `skills/*/SKILL.md` frontmatter to identify relevant skills for trading infrastructure tasks.
2. **Follow agentskills.io Workflows**: Read `skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md` and execute the steps under `## Workflow`.
3. **Prevent Known Pitfalls**: Check `## Common Pitfalls` to prevent duplicate orders, lookahead bias, unhandled timeouts, or un-capped exposure.
4. **Run Unit Tests**: Execute `python -m unittest discover -s skills/<skill-name>/scripts` to verify functionality.
5. **Respect Scope**: Read `## When NOT to Use` before applying a skill — it names the cases the skill does not cover and the skill that owns each one.
