get_quickstart_skill

Returns a skill that walks an agent through setting up Finic with its user, testing its accuracy on their data and going live. Call it first.

No arguments. On /mcp and /mcp/keys.

Returns a skill: the Markdown of a SKILL.md with frontmatter name: finic-quickstart. Agents should call it before anything else, follow it, and can save it as a skill for later. It covers:

  • Access: signing in, or getting an API key, and setting up the account.
  • Questions for the user:
    1. Do you want to be able to view your past requests, or turn on Zero Data Retention? (See Data retention.)
    2. Do you already have data to test Finic with? It needs a good or bad label for each record. The agent may reshape it into Finic's format, and cleans and standardizes it before sending.
    3. What do you want to test: the use case, what counts as good and bad, and what you're trying to detect?
  • Preparing data in Finic's format (Example data).
  • Testing accuracy on the user's data: hold out some labeled rows, create a score from the rest, score the held-out rows, and measure AUC, precision and recall at chosen thresholds, and calibration. For decisions, run decide with a base_rate on labeled cases and measure the same.
  • Going live: API keys, thresholds and calibrating with outcomes.
