## Let a coding agent write it

The repository ships a [`create-custom-updater` skill](https://github.com/quantco/quant-ranger/blob/main/skills/create-custom-updater/SKILL.md) that teaches coding agents to write, debug, and run one-off updaters.
Install it with the [`skills` CLI](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills):
The conda-forge `quant-ranger` package depends on a matching [pixi-skills](https://github.com/pavelzw/pixi-skills) skills package, so the skill is already present in your Pixi environment.
Run pixi-skills through `pixi exec` to configure the skill for your coding agent:

```bash
pixi exec pixi-skills manage
```

The interactive prompt lets you select `create-custom-updater`, your coding agent, and whether to configure it for the current project or globally.
No separate installation of the skill is required.

Alternatively, install the skill directly from the repository with the [`skills` CLI](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills):

```bash
npx skills add quantco/quant-ranger --skill create-custom-updater
