## Definition

A Stock Factor Skill is a packaged AI-agent capability module that wraps quantitative stock-factor analysis — screening, backtesting, and factor mining — into a single installable skill for autonomous agents like OpenClaw. The module lets a chat-based AI run multi-factor models against live market data without the user writing any code.

The concept crystallized in the Chinese AI-builder community around early 2026 as the OpenClaw skills ecosystem scaled past 13,700 community entries. Projects like [BitSoulStockSkill](https://github.com/BitSoulTech/BitSoulStockSkill) (542 stars, March 2026) and 东方财富's 妙想Skills (March 13, 2026) packaged 100+ industry factors, MoE-based stock selection, and full backtesting into self-contained skill directories.

## Example

BitSoulStockSkill ships free A-share historical data, 100+ technical and fundamental factors, and a Mixture-of-Experts stock-screener — install it in `~/.openclaw/skills/`, and OpenClaw can screen A-shares, rank by factor scores, and run backtests through plain conversation.

## Analogy

Think of it as a Bloomberg terminal compressed into a chatbot plugin.

## Why it's emerging now

Two forces converged in early 2026: OpenClaw's skills marketplace crossed 13,700 entries with 311+ finance entries, and Chinese brokerage platforms (富途, 东方财富) began shipping institutional-grade factor libraries as agent skills. The 'Stock Factor Skill' label captures the resulting category — AI agents that can run quant strategies on demand without code.
