# Max Drawdown Recovery

> Ingest market data, backtest a supplied strategy to surface its maximum-drawdown episodes, and run the TradingAgents swarm debate to vet a candidate recovery hypothesis for the observed drawdown. Use when a researcher wants evidence-linked drawdown analysis and a vetted recovery hypothesis; this workflow does not place trades or guarantee recovery.

# Max Drawdown Recovery Workflow

Compose the named atomic skills without adding execution logic here.

## Inputs

Provide the strategy definition, asset universe, date range, and the candidate
recovery hypothesis to vet.

## Steps

### Step 0: quant-data-ingest [skill: quant-data-ingest]

Invoke `$quant-data-ingest` with the workflow inputs to ingest market
data for the universe and date range.

Expected: `normalized_market_dataset`

### Step 1: qlib-backtester [skill: qlib-backtester] [depends_on: Step 0]

Invoke `$qlib-backtester` with `normalized_market_dataset` and the
strategy definition to surface drawdown episodes.

Expected: `backtest_report`

### Step 2: trading-debate [skill: trading-debate] [depends_on: Step 1]

Invoke `$trading-debate` with `backtest_report` and the candidate
recovery hypothesis to run the TradingAgents swarm debate.

Expected: `recovery_hypothesis_verdict`

## Output

Return `backtest_report` and `recovery_hypothesis_verdict`. Does not place
trades or guarantee recovery.

## Execution

- **Run first:** Step 0 — `$quant-data-ingest`.
- **After level 0:** Step 1 — `$qlib-backtester`.
- **After level 1:** Step 2 — `$trading-debate`.

**Execution:** If graph-os is reachable, offload the whole DAG via `graph_orchestrate action=execute_workflow` (or the `kg-delegate` skill) for true parallel/swarm execution. Otherwise execute the steps natively in dependency order: run steps with no unmet `depends_on` in parallel, then their dependents.
