API Endpoints
Canonical Options Score
Use this endpoint for the normal "score options" request. It selects an expiry when one is not supplied, applies the requested strategy, and returns ranked recommendations with the trend context and score breakdown.
POST /api/v1/options/score Authorization: Bearer $ALPHAGBM_API_KEY Content-Type: application/json {"ticker": "AAPL", "strategy": "sell_put", "expiry_date": "2026-04-17", "top_n": 5}
strategy accepts sell_put, sell_call, buy_call, buy_put, or all.
expiry_date and top_n are optional; top_n is capped at 10. A successful
response contains ticker, strategy, current_price, expiry_date,
trend, and either recommendations or a strategies object when strategy
is all.
Get Option Expirations
GET /api/options/expirations/<SYMBOL>
Option Chain Analysis -- Synchronous
POST /api/options/chain-sync Content-Type: application/json {"symbol": "AAPL", "expiry_date": "2026-04-17"}
Add ?compact=true for condensed response.
Response includes for each of 4 strategies (Sell Put, Sell Call, Buy Call, Buy Put):
- Top 10 recommendations sorted by score (0-100)
- Score breakdown: premium_yield, support/resistance_strength, safety_margin, trend_alignment, probability_profit, liquidity, time_decay
- ATR safety info (safety_ratio, atr_multiples, is_safe)
- Risk-return profile: style, risk_level, win_probability
- Trend analysis: direction, strength, alignment score
Option Chain Analysis -- Async
POST /api/options/chain-async Content-Type: application/json {"symbol": "TSLA", "expiry_date": "2026-04-17"}
Returns {"task_id": "uuid"}. Poll with: GET /api/tasks/<task_id>.
Enhanced Single-Option Analysis -- Sync
POST /api/options/enhanced-sync Content-Type: application/json {"symbol": "AAPL", "option_identifier": "AAPL260417C00190000"}
Enhanced Single-Option Analysis -- Async
POST /api/options/enhanced-async Content-Type: application/json {"symbol": "AAPL", "option_identifier": "AAPL260417C00190000"}
Reverse Score
Score a specific contract from known parameters:
POST /api/options/reverse-score Content-Type: application/json {"symbol": "AAPL", "option_type": "CALL", "strike": 190, "expiry_date": "2026-02-16", "option_price": 2.50, "implied_volatility": 28}
Batch Chain Analysis
POST /api/options/chain/batch Content-Type: application/json {"symbols": ["AAPL", "NVDA"], "expiries": ["2026-04-17", "2026-05-15"]}
Max 3 symbols x 2 expiries per request.
IV Snapshot (instant, no analysis-credit cost)
GET /api/options/snapshot/<SYMBOL> Authorization: Bearer $ALPHAGBM_API_KEY
Returns: ATM IV, IV Rank, HV 30d, VRP, VRP level.
Daily Recommendations (no auth required)
GET /api/options/recommendations?count=5
Typical Workflow
- Score directly:
POST /api/v1/options/scorewith ticker + strategy - Quick IV check:
GET /api/options/snapshot/AAPL(authenticated, no analysis-credit deduction) - Inspect expirations:
GET /api/options/expirations/AAPLwhen the user specifies a date - Drill into a specific contract:
POST /api/options/enhanced-syncwith option_identifier - Compare across tickers:
POST /api/options/chain/batchfor multi-symbol analysis
Use the lower-level chain endpoints only when the user asks for raw chain or enhanced analysis. Do not substitute them for the canonical score endpoint.
Quota
- Free account: uses the current account-level daily free allowance; do not assume a per-Skill allowance
- Plus: 1,000/month
- Pro: 5,000/month
- Snapshot does not consume analysis credits but still requires authentication. Recommendations are a public summary endpoint.
Output Formatting Tips
- Scores are 0-100; present top picks in a table sorted by score descending.
- Always show the score breakdown factors so users understand why a contract scored well.
- Highlight ATR safety info (is_safe flag) prominently for sell strategies.
- Include the risk-return style label (steady_income, balanced, etc.) for quick context.
Example Queries
| User Says | What Happens |
|---|---|
| "Score AAPL options" | Full chain with scores, top picks highlighted |
| "Best NVDA call to buy" | Filtered to calls, sorted by score descending |
| "TSLA puts for next Friday" | Filtered by expiry + type |
| "Which SPY option has the best risk/reward?" | Sorted by risk_reward factor |
Mock Data
Offline demo tickers are available without an API key: AAPL, NVDA, SPY, TSLA, META. They use bundled sample data from mock-data/; they are not live API access.
