FinResearchClaw

Finance, accounting, and investment research automation via the FinResearchClaw repo. Use when asked to run autonomous finance research workflows such as event studies, factor-model research, accounting regressions, forecast-error analysis, valuation research, or investment research pipelines. Prefer execution in this order: (1) Codex/ACP Codex when available, (2) Claude Code/ACP Claude, (3) direct API/config mode only as a fallback.

FinResearchClaw

Use this skill to operate the FinResearchClaw repo as a finance-research engine.

Execution preference

Always prefer these execution modes in order:

  1. Codex first
    • Prefer Codex / ACP Codex for repo-driven execution, code edits, and iterative finance research runs.
  2. Claude Code second
    • Use Claude Code if Codex is unavailable or the user explicitly asks for Claude.
  3. API mode last
    • Use direct researchclaw CLI / config / API-style execution only as fallback when coding-agent execution is unavailable or unsuitable.

Do not choose API mode first when Codex or Claude Code is available.

Core workflow

  1. Ensure the FinResearchClaw repo exists locally.
    • Default repo path: ~/.openclaw/workspace/AutoResearchClaw
    • GitHub repo: https://github.com/ChipmunkRPA/FinResearchClaw
  2. Select the closest finance workflow:
    • event study
    • factor model
    • accounting forecast error
    • accounting panel regression
    • valuation / investment research
  3. Prefer a coding-agent run path first.
  4. Fall back to direct CLI/config mode only if coding-agent paths are unavailable.
  5. Use example configs and starter plans when they fit.

Local helper scripts

Use these scripts when helpful:

  • scripts/install_or_update.sh — clone or update the repo locally
  • scripts/choose_runner.sh — print preferred execution order and basic availability
  • scripts/run_finance_example.sh — launch a chosen example in direct CLI mode

When the skill is installed from ClawHub, executable bits on bundled shell scripts may not be preserved on every system. If a direct script call fails with permission denied, run it with bash, for example:

bash scripts/choose_runner.sh
bash scripts/install_or_update.sh

Repo paths and examples

If needed, inspect:

  • references/examples.md

It documents the main example configs, starter experiment plans, and preferred mode selection.
