Economic Calendar Fetcher
Pulls upcoming economic events from the Financial Modeling Prep API and helps you stay ahead of market-moving data releases. You run the Python script with a date range (defaults to next 7 days, max 90), it fetches the raw JSON, then Claude filters and formats it into a readable report with impact assessments. Covers the usual suspects: FOMC meetings, jobs reports, CPI, GDP, plus events from major economies beyond the US. Requires an FMP API key, but the free tier gives you 250 requests daily which is plenty for checking what's on deck this week. The script uses only standard library Python, so no dependency hassles. Honestly most useful when you just want to know if there's anything big coming that might shake up your positions or trading plans.

Economic Calendar Fetcher
Overview
Retrieve upcoming economic events and data releases from the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) Economic Calendar API. This skill fetches scheduled economic indicators including central bank monetary policy decisions, employment reports, inflation data (CPI/PPI), GDP releases, retail sales, manufacturing data, and other market-moving events that impact financial markets.
The skill uses a Python script to query the FMP API and returns raw JSON or text output. The assistant then filters events, assesses market impact, and generates a chronological Markdown report for each scheduled event. No files are generated automatically.
Key Capabilities:
- Fetch economic events for specified date ranges (max 90 days)
- Support flexible API key provision (environment variable or CLI argument)
- Filter by impact level, country, or event type (filtering performed by the assistant)
- Present filtered results as structured Markdown reports with impact analysis (assistant-generated, not script-generated)
- Default to next 7 days for quick market outlook
