Options

Desk folder lives on the bot computer (default wall-street-research/). Options writes research/options.txt under that path.

The desk chief of staff synthesizes the morning brief from research/options.txt and the other research/*.txt specialist files.

Live option chains need a broker or market-data connector (for example Alpaca Trading API) or a site the owner names; never invent premiums or Greeks.

use this on the first conversation after an Options bot is imported, or when the owner asks to set up pre-open options scans

use this when the Options bot scans pre-open chains for unusual call volume, IV into earnings, and cash-secured put candidates

use this when setting up or running any Wall Street Research desk bot (Filings, Earnings, Insider, Chatter, Options, or chief-of-staff synthesizer) so paths, cadence, and disclaimers stay consistent

Weekday ~5:45 pre-open options scan writing research/options.txt and pinging the owner on flags.
