Sell OTM call + OTM\n put. Need: comfortable owning at put_strike, no parabolic\n upside expectation. Ann yield ≥12%. Compute and emit\n breakeven_high (call_strike + total_premium) and\n breakeven_low (put_strike - total_premium).\n naked_put — same setup as CSP but using margin. ~2x yield, margin call\n risk. Only for margin-equipped accounts. Note explicitly.\n naked_call — bearish setup with elevated IV. UNCAPPED loss if rally.\n Confidence ceiling 4 (Compliance enforces). Requires\n explicit upside-shock thesis + defense plan in conditions.\n\nMatch the structure to the thesis shape — don't reach for naked options\njust because the premium is fatter.

The setup is strictly for income (covered calls) but lacks the catalyst/quality/mispricing edge to justify a publish.\n\nLet's double check the scoring rubric for core: <50 Skip.\nI will output the skip JSON.\nScore breakdown:\nsmart_money: 0\noptions_flow: 1\ncatalyst: 25\nmispricing: 0\nquality: 0\ntechnical: 5\nTotal: 31.\n\nCheck rubric details:\nA. Smart money: 0 pts. (Penalty applies but score can't go below 0 usually, or I'll just put 0).\nB. Options flow: 1 pt (net_dollar_bias_pct > 30).\nC. Catalyst: 25 pts (cap).\nD. Mispricing: 0 pts.\nE. Quality: 0 pts.\nF. Technical: 5 pts.\nSum: 31.\n\nReason: \"Rich valuation (44x Fwd P/E), material insider selling ($88M CEO dump), and flagged anti-signals for dilution/concentration eliminate margin of safety; dossier only supports income structures which lack the edge for a publish.\"\n\nWait, should I consider the strangle/CC structure? The prompt says \"OPTION B (skip) IS THE EXPECTED DEFAULT. The pipeline publishes rarely... Most dossiers should return { \"skip\": true... }\". Score is 31, well below 60. Skip is correct.\n\nI will format the output exactly as requested.\nCheck anti-signal gate: \"If scoring_inputs has anti_signals_present non-empty, treat each entry as a gate; skip unless you can articulate WHY it doesn't apply to this case.\" The dossier says anti_signals_present: [\"dilution\", \"concentration\"]. I'll note that in the reason or just skip based on score. The score is 31, so skip is definitive.\n\nOutput matches schema.\nProceed. \nOne minor thing: The prompt says \"Penalty: −10 pts if material insider SELLING > BUYING in dollars\". I'll just set smart_money to 0.\nScore breakdown matches.\nAll good.\nOutput JSON. \nLet's verify the structure of the skip output:\n{\n \"skip\": true,\n \"score\": 31,\n \"score_breakdown\": {\n \"smart_money\": 0,\n \"options_flow\": 1,\n \"catalyst\": 25,\n \"mispricing\": 0,\n \"quality\": 0,\n \"technical\": 5\n },\n \"reason\": \"Rich valuation (44x Fwd P/E), material insider selling ($88M CEO dump), and flagged anti-signals for dilution/concentration eliminate margin of safety; dossier only supports income structures which lack the edge for a publish.\"\n}\nMatches requirements. No extra text. Valid JSON.\nDone. \nSelf-Correction/Refinement during thought: \nCheck catalyst scoring: \"10 pts: earnings within 90 days AND last 4 quarters' EPS surprise > 0%\" -> Yes, 10 pts.\n\"5 pts: recent guidance raise (last 90 days)\" -> Yes, 5 pts.\n\"5 pts: quantifiable sector tailwind\" -> Yes, 5 pts.\nTotal 20. Cap is 25. So 20 or 25. I'll give 20 to be precise, or 25 as per \"consecutive positive surprises with accelerating magnitude\" might justify the extra 5? The rubric says \"Cap at 25 even if components add to more.\" I'll stick with 20 or 25. I'll use 20 to be safe, or 25. It doesn't change the skip. I'll use 20.\nActually, the rubric says:\n• 10 pts: earnings...\n• 8 pts: pending product...\n• 5 pts: recent guidance raise\n• 5 pts: quantifiable sector tailwind\nSum = 25. I'll give 20 (10+5+5).\nTechnical: 3 (above both DMA) + 2 (RSI 40-65) = 5.\nOptions: 1 (net dollar bias > 30).\nSmart money: 0.\nMispricing: 0.\nQuality: 0.\nTotal: 26. Still < 50.\nI will output 26.\nReason covers it.\nReady. \nOutput matches exactly. \nProceeds. \n[Output Generation] -> JSON only. \nCheck schema for skip:\n{\n \"skip\": true,\n \"score\": ,\n \"score_breakdown\": { ... },\n \"reason\": \"...\"\n}\nAll good. \nOutput matches. \nProceeds. \n(Self-Correction/Verification during generation prep)\nWait, the prompt says: \"Penalty: −10 pts if material insider SELLING > BUYING in dollars\". I'll set smart_money to 0. Scores are non-negative in the breakdown usually, but I'll just put 0.\nThe reason should be concise.\nAll good. \nOutput matches request. \nProceeds. \n[Final Check of the Prompt]\n\"ONLY ONE STRUCTURE TYPE. Pick long_stock, csp, OR cc and only fill that sub-object. Leave the others null/omitted.\" -> This is for PROCEED.\nFor SKIP: \"IF YOU SKIP — output exactly: { \"skip\": true, ... }\"\nI will output exactly that.\nDone. \nGenerating. \n```json\n{\n \"skip\": true,\n \"score\": 26,\n \"score_breakdown\": {\n \"smart_money\": 0,\n \"options_flow\": 1,\n \"catalyst\": 20,\n \"mispricing\": 0,\n \"quality\": 0,\n \"technical\": 5\n },\n \"reason\": \"Rich valuation (44x Fwd P/E), material insider selling ($88M CEO dump), and flagged anti-signals for dilution/concentration eliminate margin of safety; dossier only supports income structures which lack the edge for a publish.\"\n}\n```\nMatches perfectly.
