Output Formats Category Guide

Scope

• Apply these rules to skills/output-formats/ and its descendants unless a deeper file overrides them.

Purpose

• Store skills that package investing content into reusable output styles.

Include Here

• Securities-firm style reports
• Reusable memo or briefing structures
• Publishable output packaging patterns
• Chart-rich financial report layouts and exhibit packaging

Ownership

• Own output structure, layout logic, title treatment, table placement, disclaimer handling, and publishable presentation patterns.
• Assume the core investing analysis already exists upstream.
• Produce a structured result that can later be handed to an external docx, pdf, or spreadsheet skill if a concrete file artifact is required.
• Cover chart selection and exhibit placement when that improves the report output.

Rules

• Do not let file-extension concerns dominate the skill design.
• Keep output-style instructions reusable across many investing use cases.
• Make it easy for an agent to pass the result into an external formatting skill afterward.
