Portfolio Optimizer
Purpose
Modern portfolio theory optimization including Markowitz mean-variance, Black-Litterman, risk parity, and efficient frontier construction with constraints.
Routing
- Use when: Use when the user asks about portfolio optimization, asset allocation, efficient frontier, Markowitz optimization, Black-Litterman, risk parity, diversification, rebalancing, or optimal portfolio construction.
- Do not use when: Do not use when the request is about individual stock analysis, financial modeling, risk metrics only (use Risk Analyzer), or tax planning.
- Outputs: Outcome from Portfolio Optimizer: optimized asset allocation with weights, expected return, risk metrics, efficient frontier positioning, and rebalancing recommendations.
- Success criteria: Returns specific allocation weights, portfolio expected return and risk, Sharpe ratio, comparison to current allocation, and actionable rebalancing steps.
Trigger Examples
Positive
- Use the portfolio-optimizer skill for this request.
- Help me with portfolio optimizer.
- Use when the user asks about portfolio optimization, asset allocation, efficient frontier, Markowitz optimization, Black-Litterman, risk parity, diversification, rebalancing, or optimal portfolio construction.
- Portfolio Optimizer: provide an actionable result.
Negative
- Do not use when the request is about individual stock analysis, financial modeling, risk metrics only (use Risk Analyzer), or tax planning.
- Do not use portfolio-optimizer for unrelated requests.
- This request is outside portfolio optimizer scope.
- This is conceptual discussion only; no tool workflow is needed.

- /attack-path-analysis
Use when Codex is already in the attack-path-analysis phase of a security scan or the user explicitly asks to trace a security finding from source to sink and calibrate severity. Do not use as the primary trigger for full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.
Open skill - /deep-security-scan
Use when the user asks for a deep, exhaustive, multi-pass, or variance-reducing repository-wide Codex Security scan. Run repeated independent repository-wide discovery passes with worker-specific threat models, semantically merge candidates, synthesize one canonical validation
Open skill - /finding-discovery
Use when Codex is already in the finding-discovery phase of a security scan or the user explicitly asks to discover candidate security findings in a repository or code change. Do not use as the primary trigger for full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.
Open skill - /fix-finding
Use when the user explicitly asks to fix and verify a validated or plausible security finding. Do not use as the primary trigger for full PR, commit, branch, patch, or repository scans.
Open skill - /security-diff-scan
Use when the user asks for a security review of a pull request, commit, branch diff, working-tree patch, or other Git-backed change set.
Open skill - /security-scan
Use when the user asks for a repository-wide or scoped-path security scan.
