How It Works

What Data Is Being Used?

This skill uses publicly available Federal Reserve data:

  1. FOMC Statements
  2. Interest Rate Decisions
  3. Inflation Reports (CPI/PCE)
  4. Employment Data
  5. Federal Reserve Speeches

What Skills Are Used?

  • poll_polymarket_markets.py (for market context if needed)
  • summarize_news.py (for economic news aggregation)
  • fetch_econ_data.py (for direct data scraping)

Troubleshooting

No Output?

  1. Check that --output-file "" is used (empty string)
  2. Verify PowerShell compatibility with Python 3.8+
  3. Ensure no other process is blocking console output

Missing Data Points?

  • Run with specific flags: --with-inflation --with-employment
  • Some data may be unavailable due to delayed releases

Configuration (Optional)

Edit scripts/track_fed_policy.py in the root folder if you need to customize:

  • Default time periods for data retrieval
  • API endpoints for polling
  • Output formatting preferences

Example Commands

Basic Execution

python "C:\Users\Legion 5i Pro\.openclaw\workspace\skills\fed-agent\scripts\track_fed_policy.py" --output-file ""

With Inflation Data

python "...\track_fed_policy.py" --output-file "" --with-inflation

Save to File

python "...\track_fed_policy.py" --output-file "fed_report.md"
