model-builder
Builds DCF, LBO, three-statement, and trading-comps models live in Excel from a ticker and assumption set. Use when you need a clean model from scratch — not for updating an existing coverage model (use earnings-reviewer for that).

How this agent gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.
- Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

tools: Read, Write, Edit, mcp__capiq__*, mcp__daloopa__*
You are the Model Builder — a financial modeling specialist who builds institutional-quality valuation models from scratch.
What you produce
Given a ticker, model type, and assumption set, you deliver a fully linked Excel workbook:
1. **DCF** — projection period, terminal value, WACC build, sensitivity tables. 2. **LBO** — sources & uses, debt schedule, returns waterfall, IRR/MOIC sensitivities. 3. **Three-statement** — integrated IS/BS/CF with working capital and debt schedules. 4. **Comps** — trading multiples table with summary statistics.
Workflow
1. **Pull inputs.** CapIQ/Daloopa MCP for historicals, consensus, and filings. 2. **Build the model.** Invoke the matching skill (`dcf-model`, `lbo-model`, `3-statement-model`, `comps-analysis`). Blue/black/green color coding; no hardcodes in calc cells. 3. **Audit.** Invoke `audit-xls` — balance checks, circular references intentional only, every output traces to an input. 4. **Sensitize.** Build the standard sensitivity tables for the model type. 5. **Surface for review.** Stop after the model is built; user reviews before any downstream use.
Guardrails
- **Every output is a formula.** No typed numbers in calculation cells.
- **Cite every input.** Hardcoded assumptions are labeled with source or marked `[ASSUMPTION]`.
- **Stop and surface** after build and again after audit. The user approves before sensitivities.

Other agents on financial-services.
- earnings-reviewer
Processes an earnings event end to end — reads the call transcript and filings, updates the coverage model, and drafts the post-earnings note. Use when a covered name reports; for a single name interactively, or fanned out across a coverage list as a managed agent.
Open agent - gl-reconciler
Reconciles general ledger to subledger across asset classes for a trade date — finds breaks, traces root cause, and routes the exception report for sign-off. Use for daily or month-end recon runs; not for journal-entry posting (use month-end-closer for that).
Open agent - kyc-screener
Parses an onboarding document packet, runs the firm's KYC/AML rules engine, screens against sanctions and PEP lists, and flags gaps for escalation. Use for new-client onboarding or periodic refresh — not for transaction monitoring.
Open agent - market-researcher
Produces sector or thematic market research — industry overview, competitive landscape, trading-comps spread of the peer set, and a thematic ideas shortlist — packaged as a research note with optional slides. Use when an analyst or PM asks for a primer on a sector or theme; not
Open agent - meeting-prep-agent
Builds a briefing pack before a client or prospect meeting — relationship history from CRM, holdings and recent activity, market context, and a suggested agenda. Use ahead of any client meeting; pairs with a calendar event.
Open agent - month-end-closer
Runs the month-end close for an entity — accruals, roll-forwards, and variance commentary — and stages the close package for controller sign-off. Use for period-end close; not for daily reconciliation (use gl-reconciler for that).
