Druckenmiller Strategy Synthesizer
Purpose
Synthesize outputs from 8 upstream analysis skills (5 required + 3 optional) into a single composite conviction score (0-100), classify the market into one of 4 Druckenmiller patterns, and generate actionable allocation recommendations. This is a meta-skill that consumes structured JSON outputs from other skills — it requires no API keys of its own.
When to Use This Skill
English:
- User asks "What's my overall conviction?" or "How should I be positioned?"
- User wants a unified view synthesizing breadth, uptrend, top risk, macro, and FTD signals
- User asks about Druckenmiller-style portfolio positioning
- User requests strategy synthesis after running individual analysis skills
- User asks "Should I increase or decrease exposure?"
- User wants pattern classification (policy pivot, distortion, contrarian, wait)
Japanese:
- 「総合的な市場判断は?」「今のポジショニングは?」
- ブレッドス、アップトレンド、天井リスク、マクロの統合判断
- 「エクスポージャーを増やすべき?減らすべき?」
- 「ドラッケンミラー分析を実行して」
- 個別スキル実行後の戦略統合レポート

Run the required skills first. The synthesizer reads their JSON output from reports/.
Execution Workflow
Phase 1: Verify Prerequisites
Check that the 5 required skill JSON reports exist in reports/ and are recent (< 72 hours). If any are missing, run the corresponding skill first.
Phase 2: Execute Strategy Synthesizer
python3 skills/stanley-druckenmiller-investment/scripts/strategy_synthesizer.py \
--reports-dir reports/ \
--output-dir reports/ \
--max-age 72
The script will:
- Load and validate all upstream skill JSON reports
- Extract normalized signals from each skill
- Calculate 7 component scores (weighted 0-100)
- Compute composite conviction score
- Classify into one of 4 Druckenmiller patterns
- Generate target allocation and position sizing
- Output JSON and Markdown reports
Phase 3: Present Results
Present the generated Markdown report, highlighting:
- Conviction score and zone
- Detected pattern and match strength
- Strongest and weakest components
- Target allocation (equity/bonds/alternatives/cash)
- Position sizing parameters
- Relevant Druckenmiller principle
Phase 4: Provide Druckenmiller Context
Load appropriate reference documents to provide philosophical context:
- High conviction: Emphasize concentration and "fat pitch" principles
- Low conviction: Emphasize capital preservation and patience
- Pattern-specific: Apply relevant case study from
references/case-studies.md
