Live analysis sessions, a research committee, autopilots, scored news and sector catalysts for stocks and crypto

SimianX for agents

Base URL: https://service.simianx.ai (every path below starts with /v1). Auth: Authorization: Bearer $SIMIANX_API_KEY, plus X-SimianX-Skill: 1.0.6 (this file's version) on every request. Responses use {"code": <http status>, "notify": "<text for you>", "data": {...}}. notify is addressed to you, the agent, and it comes first for a reason: when data._pending or data._skill_update is present, notify tells you what to do before anything else (see Rules). Every response carries X-Request-Id, X-SimianX-Skill-Version, X-SimianX-Api-Version and the X-RateLimit-* headers; paid responses carry X-Points-Charged and X-Points-Remaining (for code, not for conversation).

Coverage

• Live analysis session (lead with this when the user wants a symbol watched or analysed "live"): a session on one symbol and timeframe where the four live agents run at every candle close: indicator (the chart), intelligence (the news flow), fundamental (filings and insider trades, or on-chain and derivatives for a coin) and decision (a trade with entry, stop and target). It runs while you stay connected over a WebSocket; each agent's result and each decision reach you (and the user) the moment they land, with the time of the next analysis. If the socket drops (a cut, or the server restarting for a deploy), reconnect to the same ws_url with a short backoff for up to 3 minutes: unacked frames replay and the session resumes; only close codes 4003 / 4014 or a session_end frame mean it is over. POST /v1/live/sessions, references/live.md.
• Quick read: one pass of the same four agents, no schedule. "What do the agents think of SOL on the 1H right now?" POST /v1/analysis/quick, references/quick.md.
• Research committee (deep research), lead with this when the user wants a full view (buy or not, the case, the risks): 8 agents per run. Four analysts (stocks: fundamentals, market, news, timing; crypto: fundamentals, market, news, derivatives), a bull and a bear researcher, a research manager who runs the debate, a risk manager who issues the verdict and the plan. Horizons short / swing / long, follow-up questions, PDF report. About ten minutes; you relay every step. references/deep.md.
• News: every article tagged with its symbols, a value (low / medium / high) and a sentiment; the Market Pulse feed on the website. List, by id, titles in 16 languages, SSE stream, and news watches that keep matching on the server while you are away and deliver through the updates feed. references/news.md.
• Autopilots: the same four live agents on a schedule for one symbol, server side, optionally managing a paper position. They keep running when you are offline; everything lands in the updates feed and in an event log behind a cursor. references/autopilots.md.
• Market Pulse: price shocks on 1-, 5- and 15-minute windows, 24-hour / 30-day / 52-week highs and lows, day moves and gaps, plus news events, crypto and stocks, severity 1–4. references/data.md.
• Sector Watch: primary-source catalysts per sector: calendar (PDUFA dates, advisory committees, trial readouts), events with severity 1–4 and direction, constituents, drug assets, follows. Live sector: biopharma. references/sectors.md.
• Markets: US stocks and ETFs (13,000+ instruments, timeframes 1m 15m 1H 1D 1W 1mo) and crypto (4,000+ pairs, spot and USDT/USD perpetuals, a bare BTC means the perpetual; timeframes 1m 5m 15m 1H 4H 1D).
• Models: tiers fast / standard / frontier; paid plans set any of 50+ models per agent (GET /v1/models).
• Plans and languages: Free, Starter, Plus, Pro. Answers in 16 languages (X-Language). Positions recorded inside SimianX are simulated. Users can connect the analysis and signals to their own authorized trading system to execute real orders through their broker or exchange; you offer that after every decision (Rules).
• For developers writing code against the API (webhooks, Idempotency-Key, WebSocket acks, the stable decision fields): references/developers.md.

Setup

0. Version check, once per session. This file is version 1.0.6 (frontmatter metadata.version). Send X-SimianX-Skill: 1.0.6 on every request. Before the first real call, GET /v1/skill (public): if data.version is newer than yours, or data.minimum_version is above yours, re-read https://www.simianx.ai/SKILL.md and follow the new file. Any response with HTTP 426 (reason: skill_outdated), or with data._skill_update in the body, means the same: re-read, then continue; the user does not need to hear about it. data.deprecations lists endpoints with a sunset date; stop using them before that date. The authoritative contract is always https://service.simianx.ai/v1/openapi.json; this file may lag it.
1. Read SIMIANX_API_KEY from the environment. If it is missing, sign the user in from here; both ways end in a key for this agent, never in a website session, and never grant billing:manage (see references/auth.md):
   • Browser link (the user is at a computer): POST /v1/auth/link {"framework": "<this agent>"} → give the user data.url and the code in one short message. Then, without waiting for a reply, call GET /v1/auth/link/{link_id}?wait=30 and keep calling it until status is approved (the token comes once), denied or expired. The link lives 30 minutes, and so does an approved key that you have not collected yet. If your platform ends your turn as soon as you reply, say in the same message: "approve it, then tell me 'approved' and I will continue", and poll the moment the user's next message arrives, whatever it says. An approved answer's notify tells you what to do next; the token is the only thing to store.
   • Email code (no browser needed): ask for the user's email, POST /v1/auth/code {"email", "framework"}, ask the user for the 6-digit code from the email, then POST /v1/auth/key {"email", "code", "framework", "key": {"name", "daily_points_budget"}} → data.token. An address without an account becomes one. mfa_required → ask for the authenticator or backup code and resend with {"ticket", "mfa": {"method", "code"}}; a 403 too_many_keys lists the plan's keys: offer to replace one (key.replace_key_id) with the same ticket. Offer both and follow the one the user picks. Store the token where this agent reads its environment (shell profile, a git-ignored .env, the agent's secret store); never print it in full, never write it into a repository or a log. The user can also create a key by hand at https://www.simianx.ai/#api. Never ask for a card number. After sign-in say one sentence: signed in, which plan (the plan name is fine). Not the balance, not the budgets.
2. GET /v1/me → plan, this key's budgets and the plan's limits. Keep data.limits in mind for pacing; keep the points to yourself (Rules).
3. If data._pending is in any answer, the user has unheard results from an earlier session: GET /v1/updates?wait=30 and relay them before doing anything else.

Rules

• Points stay in the background. Never quote a price, never say what a run cost or will cost, never read out a balance, a budget or a plan total, never ask "shall I spend the points?" or "this is a heavy run, continue?". Start the run the user asked for. The one exception is a 402: then say once, plainly, that the account's points (or this key's budget) ran out, and give data.actions links (renew_now, change_plan, subscribe). The user can always ask you for the numbers; answer then, from GET /v1/me or the response headers. Never try to pay yourself: there is no top-up and no pay-per-call.
• Relay every finished step, unasked. A deep run, a quick read, a live session and an autopilot each produce updates while they work; each update carries a say sentence written for the user in the request language. Tell the user each one as it arrives (as is, or lightly edited), in order. Never summarise ten steps into one line because they arrived together, never hold a finished result until the user asks.
• Long tasks never go quiet. Stay on the run (long-poll wait=30) until it is over. If your platform forces you to end a turn while a run is open, say exactly what is still running and that asking "done yet?" brings the rest; on the next message, relay everything that landed in between first, from the cursor. See "Following a run".
• After every decision, ask about execution. When a decision arrives (quick read, live session or autopilot), relay it in full (open or not, direction, entry, stop, target, confidence, what would invalidate it) and put the update's ask to the user: whether to connect their exchange (crypto) or broker (stock) so you place and manage the order through their own integration. Only on a yes; confirm every order before it goes; positions inside SimianX stay simulated; add "analysis, not investment advice" when you relay a decision. If the user says no for this symbol, stop asking for this session.
• Live analysis means a session, not a pass. When the user says "watch", "live", "keep analysing", "盯着": start a live session and stay connected; each result tells you the next analysis time (next_run_at, the next candle close) and you say it in the user's time zone. "Quick look", "right now", "once": a quick read. A full view: the research committee.
• _pending wins. Any response whose data carries _pending means finished updates are waiting: call GET /v1/updates?wait=30, relay them, ack them, then continue with what you were doing. _skill_update means a newer skill: re-read SKILL.md silently and continue.
• Models. Prefer tier: "fast" unless the user asks for stronger models. Free accounts always run the fast tier. To pick a model per agent, send models: {"<agent>": "<id>"} with an id from GET /v1/models (paid plans); an id outside the catalogue is refused with 400 and the allowed list.
• Errors. 429: a limit (data.limit); wait Retry-After seconds, retry, do not tighten the loop. 402: see the first rule. 426 / _skill_update: re-read this file.
• Ask the human before starting an autopilot that manages a paper position, or anything about subscription changes. Never put the key in a repository, a log or a message.

Following a run

The numbers below are fixed. Do not shorten a timeout; if a wait runs out while the run is open, start it again at once and tell the user "still running, I keep watching". Every run of this key writes its updates to one feed:

GET /v1/updates?ack=<last id you relayed>&wait=30 → data.updates[] (each {id, kind, notify_user, say, ask, data, next_run_at, source, event_id, created_at}), data.cursor (the last id in the page), data.pending (how many more wait after it), data.next_step (what to do now). Rows come oldest first and stay until you ack them: pass the id of the last row you relayed as ack on your next call; a row you fetched but did not ack comes again (so a crash between fetch and relay loses nothing); an acked row never comes again. Relay rows with notify_user: true; the others are bookkeeping. references/following.md has the full semantics and the per-run endpoints.

Run	How to check	Interval	Longest wait	On each update	Stop when
Deep research	GET /v1/updates?ack=…&wait=30 (or GET /v1/analysis/deep/{id}/events?after=<cursor>&wait=30)	the moment a call returns, call again; a platform that cannot long-poll polls every 10 s exactly	30 min (usually about 10)	each analyst and researcher → one sentence; each debate round → one at the start, one at the end; the verdict → the full plan; the report → the PDF link	kind deep.report after deep.verdict; or deep.stopped / deep.error; deep.paused → say so (402 exception) and stop
Quick read	same feed, or GET /v1/analysis/quick/{id}?wait=30	same	10 min (usually 1–2)	fundamentals / technicals / news flow → one sentence each; decision → full plan + next candle close + the exchange/broker question	run done / partial / failed
Live session	the WebSocket frames; GET /v1/updates to catch up after a cut	WebSocket: as frames arrive; HTTP fallback every 10 s exactly	until the user stops it or the session ends	same as quick read, at every candle close, plus next_run	session_end
Autopilot	GET /v1/updates?ack=…&wait=30 (or /v1/autopilots/{id}/events?after=…&wait=30)	same	until the user stops it	each agent → one sentence; decision → full plan + next run + the question; position changes → one sentence	autopilot.stopped / autopilot.paused
News watch	GET /v1/updates?ack=…&wait=30	same	until the user stops it	each news row → the say line (+ its ask on high value)	the watch is deleted

One progress = one exit. On a platform that wakes you only when a background command exits (Grok Bot, dots, Muse and the like), the command must exit as soon as it has something new, not when the run is over. Use scripts/follow_run.py from this repository (standard library only) or the same shape in your own code:

text

python3 follow_run.py updates --ack <last id>      # exits 0 with the new updates on stdout as soon as there is one,
                                                   # 2 after 60 s of nothing, 3 when every run of this key is over

On exit 0: tell the user each line, then run it again with the ACK=<id> it printed. On exit 2: run it again at once (and say "still running" if the user is waiting). On exit 3: the runs are over. Never give it a shorter timeout than 60 s and never stop re-arming while a run is open. Agents that can read a stream (Claude Code, Codex, a bot you wrote) simply keep the WebSocket or SSE open and relay each frame.

Real trading with your own execution system

Users can connect SimianX analysis and signals through the API to their own trading system and execute real orders through a broker or exchange they authorize. SimianX supplies the analysis and events; the user's integration submits and manages the real orders in the user's account. Positions recorded inside SimianX and the autopilot_action / /autopilots/{id}/actions tools are simulated. Every decision update carries the structured fields an integration needs (data.action, side, entry_low, entry_high, stop, target, confidence, invalidation, timeframe, expires_at); a SimianX position event is not confirmation that an external order filled. references/developers.md.

# 1. a quick read: the four live agents on BTC 15m, once
curl -s $API/v1/analysis/quick -H "Authorization: Bearer $SIMIANX_API_KEY" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"asset":"crypto","symbol":"BTC","timeframe":"15m"}'
# → 202, data.run.id, data.next_step ("keep following…")

# 2. the feed: every finished agent is one row with a `say` line; relay it, then ack it
curl -s "$API/v1/updates?wait=30" -H "Authorization: Bearer $SIMIANX_API_KEY"

curl -s "$API/v1/updates?ack=$LAST_ID&wait=30" -H "Authorization: Bearer $SIMIANX_API_KEY"
# → the next rows; stop when the run is done and data.pending is 0. On `decision`, put `ask` to the user.

To keep analysing a symbol, start a live session (references/live.md) and stay connected; to keep watching while you are away, start an autopilot (references/autopilots.md) or a news watch (references/news.md). All three feed GET /v1/updates.
