Summarize what's moving in the market right now using the AlphaAI MCP. Use when the user asks "what's moving?", "what's the big story today?", "anything breaking?", "market pulse", or wants a fast read on the current tape rather than one specific ticker.

Market pulse
Answer "what's happening right now?" from AlphaAI's feed. Two tools cover two different questions — pick the right one:
alphai_actionable_now— breaking, decision-grade news from the last few hours. The gate is strict: by default onlyactionability='high'(something to act on TODAY — guidance cut, halted trading, breaking M&A, surprise print).alphai_trending— top stories of the last 48h by relevance. The "big picture", not necessarily urgent.
Steps
- Start narrow, with
alphai_actionable_now()(defaults: last 6h, high-actionability). This is the real "is anything breaking" signal. - Read an empty result correctly. Outside major market hours (nights,
weekends — crypto trades 24/7, but high-actionability prints still cluster in
US/European/Asian sessions) an empty list is expected — it means no
high-actionability prints in the window, not that the tool failed. Before
concluding "nothing happened", widen once:
alphai_actionable_now(hours=24, min_actionability='medium'). - Add the backdrop with
alphai_trending(limit=10). Use this for the "bigger stories shaping the week" layer even when nothing is breaking. - Optional focus. If the user named a sector or theme, resolve it to
tickers (
alphai_tickers(q=...)or your own knowledge), thenalphai_news_search(tickers=[...], min_relevance=7)— there is no free-text news search; match themes client-side on the returned titles/summaries.
Output
- Breaking now — the high-actionability items, if any. Each: headline · ticker(s) · one clause on the decision it forces. If none, say so in one line and note the window you checked.
- Big picture — 3–5 trending stories by relevance, each a one-liner.
- So what — one or two sentences tying it together (risk-on/off, a sector in focus, an event everyone's positioning around).
Guardrails
- Don't conflate "trending" with "actionable". A story can dominate the tape (trending) without being something to act on today (actionable). Label which layer each item came from if it matters.
- Report relevance / actionability honestly; don't upgrade a medium item to "breaking".
- News, not advice — no trade calls.
