LumiBot Trading Skills
Free trading strategy skills for Claude Code, Codex and Cursor, built on LumiBot.
The guides and catalog.json are generated from the same maintained skill source
used by BotSpot's authoring agent. They are published together after privacy and
parity checks; there is no separately edited public version. Installed native
skills keep the version you installed until you update the package. Compatible BotSpot MCP server versions read the published catalog and
refresh its content automatically; older servers retain their bundled version
until their normal update.
Ask your AI to build a trading bot, and these skills teach it how to do it right. It learns how to write a LumiBot strategy, backtest it, read the results, and avoid the mistakes that make backtests lie. They cover stocks, ETFs, options, crypto, futures and AI agents that trade.
LumiBot is the open-source Python trading library from Lumiwealth. Docs: https://lumibot.lumiwealth.com
Install in one command
Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add Lumiwealth/lumibot-trading-skills
/plugin install lumibot-trading-skills@lumiwealth
Or from your shell:
claude plugin marketplace add Lumiwealth/lumibot-trading-skills
claude plugin install lumibot-trading-skills@lumiwealth
Codex, Cursor, Claude Code and 70+ other agents (with the skills CLI, Node 22 or newer):
npx skills add Lumiwealth/lumibot-trading-skills
Add -g to install for every project, or -a codex / -a cursor / -a claude-code to pick one agent.
Codex by hand. Codex reads personal skills from ~/.agents/skills:
git clone https://github.com/Lumiwealth/lumibot-trading-skills.git
mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills
cp -R lumibot-trading-skills/skills/* ~/.agents/skills/
Restart Codex if the skills do not show up right away.

lumibot-strategy-building | Start here. Writing, fixing and backtesting any LumiBot strategy, plus the checks that catch bad backtests. |
lumibot-backtesting | Diagnose failed or no-trade backtests from logs, fills and artifacts; use local LumiBot or BotSpot MCP. |
lumibot-api-reference | Exact LumiBot method names, lifecycle methods and working code examples. |
stock-etf-strategies | Stocks and ETFs: moving averages, breakouts, mean reversion, rotation and rebalancing. |
options-strategies | Options: covered calls, the wheel, spreads, iron condors, straddles and more. |
lumibot-indicators | Indicators like SMA, RSI, MACD and Bollinger Bands, and putting them on the backtest chart. |

fast-lumibot-strategies | Making slow strategies and big scanners fast, and handling orders quickly and safely. |
using-botspot-mcp | Using the free BotSpot MCP to build, backtest and run strategies in the cloud. |
Each skill folder has a SKILL.md and a references/ folder with deeper notes. Your AI opens the reference files only when it needs them. Some skills mention a skills tool for loading references. That is how the BotSpot MCP serves them. Here, the files are already on your computer in references/.
Quick start
- Install the skills with one of the commands above.
- Ask your AI: "Build me a moving average strategy for SPY and backtest it."
- Run it with LumiBot:
pip install lumibot, then run the strategy file your AI wrote. The LumiBot docs show how to backtest and how to connect a broker.
Connect to hosted backtests
Do not want to set up Python and data? Connect the BotSpot MCP. It is free to connect, and it creates a free BotSpot account for you. Your AI can then use strategy-building skills, research data and hosted backtest tools. Hosted compute and heavier usage depend on your plan.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http botspot https://mcp.botspot.trade/mcp
Other apps that support MCP can use the same address: https://mcp.botspot.trade/mcp. Learn more at botspot.trade.
Running a bot with your own broker always needs your approval on botspot.trade first. Nothing trades without you saying yes.
Good to know
- These skills teach an AI how to write code. They are not investment advice.
- A backtest shows what would have happened in the past. It does not promise anything about the future.
- Trading can lose money. Test with a paper account before you use real money.
