What this solves
Intel is your market awareness layer: watchlists for tickers and topics, price alerts that can carry instructions for what Lucius should do when they fire, and a signal feed — risks, opportunities, macro news, story updates — tied to your actual holdings, not a generic firehose.
In beta: real, shipped, and in the main sidebar — but its news/alert pipeline has had genuine outages and bugs fixed recently and is still being watched closely. Treat a push notification as a prompt to look, not a guaranteed, complete picture.
Watch something
- Open Intel.
- Add a ticker to a watchlist, or create a topic watchlist — free-text queries and/or linked tickers, for tracking a story rather than one stock.
- Set a price alert: a threshold, and — distinctively — a free-text instruction for what Lucius should do when it fires (e.g. “check whether the move is news-driven”), not just a bare notification.
- Open Monitors to see and configure news sources and their polling tiers.
Read the feed
The feed filters into Risk, Alerts, Opportunities, Macro, Topics, and Assets; each story carries a status (action needed / active / monitoring). Click a story for its evidence and asset context; click a ticker for its asset detail page.
What Lucius can do here
- Create, update, or delete watchlists and price alerts; read your current configuration.
- Trigger an intel scan on demand and summarize what it found.
- Read risk signals and the news feed behind your portfolio’s biggest movers.
- Add, remove, enable, or disable news sources.
- Dismiss a signal once acted on or ruled irrelevant.
Things that trip people up
- A stale “last scanned” badge is a real known failure mode — this pipeline has had genuine outages (a scan silently failing for days) fixed recently. If that timestamp looks old, look again.
- A push can be suppressed on purpose when analysis judged nothing materially changed — the in-app signal still updates, so the feed is the more complete record.
- A price alert’s instruction only applies when it fires — not a standing instruction.
- Topic watchlists rely on the queries/tickers you give them — under-specified surfaces less than expected.
