Your job is to\nSCORE the dossier against the methodology rubric and either draft a\nhigh-conviction idea, draft a clearly labeled paper-tracked research idea,\nor skip.\n\nOPTION B (skip) IS THE EXPECTED DEFAULT. The pipeline publishes normal\nrecommendation-grade ideas rarely and only when something clears a high bar.\nMost dossiers should return\n{ \"skip\": true, \"reason\": \"...\", \"score\": <num> }. Mediocre publishes burn\nDevil's Advocate budget and create credibility risk on the public site.\nPaper-tracked ideas are a separate measurement lane: they are zero-position,\nlow-confidence research setups used to learn whether the model's medium-grade\nsignals work over time. They must never read like a buy/sell recommendation.\n\nLOOK AT THE FULL STRUCTURE MENU. Even when Scout says 'no asymmetric long\nopportunity exists' (verdict=range_bound_or_income), there may be a clear\nINCOME structure (covered call against the high; strangle inside an IV-\nelevated band; CSP at a downside-defended strike). Don't reflex-skip just\nbecause long_stock isn't attractive. Read the dossier looking for what\nSHAPE OF TRADE fits, not just whether long is fits.\n\nSCORING RUBRIC (sum to max 100)\n\nA.

Standard methodology sizing.\n   \"asymmetric\"  — market_cap ≤ $5B (small-cap moonshot). 90%+ of these\n                   bets lose money or go to zero; the few that work pay\n                   for the rest.

Requirements:\n   • draft.paper_track MUST be true\n   • headline MUST begin with \"Paper Track:\"\n   • thesis_short MUST explicitly say this is a paper-tracked research setup,\n     not an actionable recommendation\n   • risk.position_size_pct MUST be 0\n   • confidence MUST be 1 or 2 (2 only when score ≥55)\n   • exit.time_horizon_months MUST be present so Monitor can close it\n   • use long_stock unless the dossier gives complete, current option\n     contract data for the chosen income structure\n\nDo not paper-track dossiers with methodology anti-signals, stale numbers,\nmissing sources, unverified catalyst dates, or generic \"cheap/AI/tailwind\"\nstories. Skip those.\n\nUPSIDE TARGET\n\nThe desk is looking for setups with a plausible 20%+ return target. For\nlong_stock, exit.target_price should be at least 20% above entry.price_at_idea\nunless the idea is explicitly a paper-tracked post-event study. If the\nsource-backed upside is less than 20%, skip rather than publishing a low-upside\nidea.\n\nSCOUT VERDICT → STRUCTURE GUIDANCE\n\nRead scoring_inputs and Scout's verdict together. The verdict tells you\nWHICH structures Scout thinks are in scope for this name:\n\n  verdict='promising'              → long_stock | csp (for asymmetric long)\n  verdict='range_bound_or_income'  → cc | strangle | csp on pullback\n                                     (DON'T default to long_stock — Scout\n                                      already said this isn't an asymmetric\n                                      long.

You can\noverride with reasoning, but if you go OUTSIDE the verdict's natural set,\nexplain why in thesis_long.\n\nSTRUCTURE SELECTION — full menu:\n\n   long_stock   — multi-quarter asymmetric thesis, IV not elevated, want\n                  full upside participation\n   csp          — bullish, want to own at strike, IV elevated, ann yield ≥15%\n   cc           — range-bound or mildly bullish, IV elevated, on top of long\n                  stock leg, if-called return ≥15% ann\n   strangle     — RANGE-BOUND thesis with elevated IV. 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. Most candidates are best as long_stock\nor CSP.

      "raw_content": "<think>The dossier is for IRM (Iron Mountain Incorporated), a specialty REIT pivoting to data centers.\nScout verdict: `range_bound_or_income`\nKey metrics:\n- Market cap: $38.8B -> Core risk class (> $5B)\n- Forward P/E: 48.7x (sector median ~38x) -> Overvalued / no mispricing discount. Score 0 for mispricing.\n- EV/EBITDA: 23.9x (sector median 19x) -> Overvalued. Score 0.\n- FCF yield: -1.29% -> Score 0.\n- SOTP gap: None mentioned.\n- Quality: ROIC 4.6% (score 0), gross margin trend null, net debt/EBITDA 7x (score 0). Quality score 0.\n- Technical: Above 50/200 DMA (3 pts), RSI 62.1 (2 pts), MACD bullish cross false (0 pts). Momentum score: 5/10.\n- Catalyst: Next earnings 2026-07-30. Last 4 quarters EPS surprise > 0%? Q1 +15.8%, Q4 +3.8%, Q3 +2.4%. Only 3 quarters mentioned. Guidance raise in last 90d: yes (5 pts). Quantifiable sector tailwind: AI data center leasing (5 pts). Total catalyst: ~10-15 max. Let's say 10.\n- Smart money: 3 Form 4 filings June 1-2, 2026, but codes unknown. distinct_insider_buyers 3, but amounts null. Notable 13F: pending. Politician: pending. Score: 0 or very low. Let's say 2 (maybe 1 pt for multiple unrelated members within 30 days, but data is unverified). Actually, \"unable to confirm transaction codes\" -> 0 pts.\n- Options flow: IV low (~12.5% at 21 DTE). OI sparse. No whale flow. Score 0.\n- Anti-signals: dilution, concentration. \"dilution\" and \"concentration\" are in anti_signals_present. The rubric says: \"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.\" Concentration > 30% customer? REITs often have high tenant concentration, but it's a risk. Dilution? REITs issue shares for JVs/acquisitions. This is a strong skip signal for a high-conviction idea.\n- Edge check: \"Nothing material — the AI/data center thesis is well-covered and priced in.\" The market knows the story. Valuation is stretched (48.7x fwd PE). Negative FCF. High leverage (7x).\n- Verdict: range_bound_or_income. Scout suggests CC or CSP. But IV is low (12.5%), so covered call yield won't be great. The dossier says \"little margin of safety\" and \"stock is already up ~56% YTD\".\n- Score calculation:\n  A: 0\n  B: 0\n  C: 10 (guidance raise + sector tailwind, but earnings surprise only 3 quarters)\n  D: 0\n  E: 0\n  F: 5\n  Total: ~15/100.\n- Thresholds: Core risk class. <45 -> Skip.\n- Anti-signal gate: dilution, concentration.\n- Conclusion: Skip. Reason: Overvalued relative to sector (48.7x fwd P/E vs 38x median), heavy leverage (7x net debt/EBITDA), negative FCF, and unverified insider buying. The AI/data center pivot is well-priced, and low IV (~12.5%) limits income structure appeal. Anti-signals for dilution and concentration further warrant caution.\n\nLet's verify scores carefully to be fair, though it's clearly a skip.\nA: 0 (unconfirmed insider buys, no 13F/politician data)\nB: 0 (low IV, no flow)\nC: 10 (guidance raise + sector tailwind)\nD: 0 (trades at premium to sector)\nE: 0 (ROIC 4.6%, debt 7x)\nF: 5 (above 50/200 DMA, RSI 62)\nTotal: 15.\nFits skip criteria perfectly.\nOutput JSON matches skip schema.\nCheck date rules: Not writing any dates in the skip output except maybe in reason if needed, but I'll keep it generic.\nCheck structure: Only output JSON.\nReady. \nOne minor point: The prompt says \"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.\" I will mention this in the reason.\nAll good.\nProceed. \nOutput matches exactly. \nSelf-Correction/Verification during thought: \nWait, the prompt says \"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.\" I will explicitly state that the anti-signals (dilution/concentration) combined with stretched valuation and unconfirmed insider activity justify a skip.\nScore breakdown: A:0, B:0, C:10, D:0, E:0, F:5. Total 15.\nMatches skip threshold (<45).\nOutput matches required format.\nDone. \nGenerating. \n```json\n{\n  \"skip\": true,\n  \"score\": 15,\n  \"score_breakdown\": {\n    \"smart_money\": 0,\n    \"options_flow\": 0,\n    \"catalyst\": 10,\n    \"mispricing\": 0,\n    \"quality\": 0,\n    \"technical\": 5\n  },\n  \"reason\": \"The dossier flags anti-signals for dilution and customer concentration, and the stock trades at a ~25% premium to its REIT sector median (48.7x fwd P/E) with negative FCF and 7x net debt/EBITDA.
