AI Skill Plugin

Tiger OpenAPI provides an AI Skill plugin that follows the Agent Skills open standard, supporting 40+ AI coding tools including Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, OpenAI Codex, and more.

Once installed, AI tools can help you query market data, place orders, manage accounts, and more through natural language — no need to manually look up API documentation.

Installation

Install with a single command using npx skills:

npx skills add tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill

The CLI auto-detects your installed AI coding tools and guides you through scope selection (project / global).

More installation options:

# List available skills
npx skills add tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill --list

# Install for a specific tool
npx skills add tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill -a claude-code

# Install globally (available across all projects)
npx skills add tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill -g

# Install to all detected tools
npx skills add tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill --all

You can also install via ClawHub:

npx clawhub install tigerbrokers

Alternative installation methods

Load locally via --plugin-dir (Claude Code)

git clone https://github.com/tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill.git ~/tigeropen-skill
claude --plugin-dir ~/tigeropen-skill

Manual copy to skills directory

# Global (all projects)
git clone https://github.com/tigerfintech/tigeropen-skill.git /tmp/tigeropen-skill
cp -r /tmp/tigeropen-skill/skills/tigeropen ~/.claude/skills/
rm -rf /tmp/tigeropen-skill

# Project-specific
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/tigeropen-skill/skills/tigeropen .claude/skills/

Prerequisites

Install the Python SDK: pip install tigeropen
Have a Tiger Brokers account with API access (Developer Page)
Have your tiger_id, private key file, and account ready

Skill Modules

The skill includes the following modules. The AI will automatically load the relevant reference based on your request:

Module	Coverage
Quickstart	SDK setup, config, client creation, enums/objects reference, error codes, FAQ
Market Data	Stock/option/future/fund quotes, K-lines, depth, scanner, fundamentals
Trading	Orders (market/limit/stop/algo), order management, assets, positions, fund transfers
Options	Option chains, Greeks, single-leg/multi-leg combo strategies, calculator tools
Real-time Push	Real-time push (quotes/depth/ticks/K-line/order/position/asset changes)
CLI	CLI tool: config management, market data, trading, account info
MCP Server	MCP Server setup for Cursor/Claude Code/Trae integration

Usage Examples

After installing, simply use natural language in your AI tool:

> Get real-time quotes for AAPL and TSLA

> Buy 100 shares of AAPL with a limit order at $150

> Fetch AAPL daily K-line data for the last 30 days and plot it

> Show my account assets and current positions

> Get AAPL option chain expiring next month, filter delta 0.3-0.7

> Subscribe to real-time quote updates for AAPL and TSLA

How It Works

An AI Skill is essentially a set of structured reference documents that teach AI coding tools how to correctly call Tiger OpenAPI. When you describe your needs in an AI tool:

The AI identifies your intent (e.g., "get quotes", "place order")
Automatically loads the relevant reference document (e.g., quote.md, trade.md)
Generates correct code based on the API specifications and code examples in the document
Executes the code and returns results

This means you don't need to memorize API details — just describe what you want to do in natural language.
