Overview & Holdings

Overview

Section titled “Overview”

The Overview tab is the first thing you see: portfolio value, daily P&L, sector breakdown, and a market regime briefing. It’s built for a five-second read — is the portfolio up, down, and by roughly how much, before you’ve even decided to look closer.

Holdings

Section titled “Holdings”

The Holdings tab is where the verdict engine lives. Each position gets:

  • A Hold / Add / Trim / Exit-style verdict
  • A confidence level and time horizon
  • Scenario context — what would need to change for the verdict to flip

Rows expand on the first click (no more double-clicking out of habit) and auto-refresh keeps prices current without a manual reload.

Senpai's tip

Toggle Research mode when adding a holding to track it in this table without touching your P&L or triggering a verdict — good for watchlist tickers you haven’t bought yet.

Holding intelligence

Section titled “Holding intelligence”

Expanding a ticker surfaces deeper context:

  • Peer-relative positioning within its sector
  • Event flags (earnings, dividends, and other calendar items)
  • Contribution breakdown — how much of your P&L this position is actually responsible for
  • Insider activity — recent open-market buys and sells by the company’s own officers and directors, from SEC Form 4
  • Financials over time — revenue, net margin, and diluted EPS by fiscal year, from what the company actually filed
  • Equity or ETF-specific detail depending on the holding type

The earnings radar carries the consensus EPS estimate for the upcoming report and how often the company has beaten that estimate over the last four quarters — so “reports in 3 days” comes with the bar it’s expected to clear. Coverage is thin for some tickers; when there’s no estimate, the date still shows and the app just doesn’t guess.

The insider activity panel counts only open-market buys and sells as conviction — the signal that someone chose to put their own money in or take it out. Option exercises, grants, gifts, and tax withholding are shown for completeness but never counted, because they aren’t decisions to buy or sell at the market. Funds and ETFs have no insiders, so they say so.

The financials panel reads SEC XBRL data straight from filings — revenue bars scaled to the window’s own peak, with net margin and EPS beside each year. A metric a company didn’t file shows an em dash, never a fabricated zero, and the revenue history stitches across the GAAP tag change most large filers made around 2018.

None of this requires Claude. It’s all part of Local Intelligence, running deterministically against live market data. Claude, when connected, adds narration on top — not a replacement for the underlying numbers.

Import & export (CSV)

Section titled “Import & export (CSV)”

Open the portfolio manager (press M) and you’ll find Export CSV and Import CSV next to the holdings search.

Export downloads your active holdings — positions and watchlist alike — as a clean CSV with six columns: ticker, shares, avg_cost, is_watchlist, hold_class, notes. It opens correctly in Excel, and it is the import template, so whatever you export imports straight back in.

Import reads holdings back in, and how forgiving it is depends on whether Claude is connected — the panel tells you which mode you’re in:

  • Local mode (no API key needed). Uses the exact template above: plain numbers, the six known columns, up to 200 rows. Predictable and completely offline. If your file has columns it doesn’t recognize, it says so plainly and points you at the template — it never fails silently.
  • Claude assist (when a key is configured). Drop in almost any brokerage export — differing headers like Symbol or Qty, currency symbols, extra columns — and Claude maps the columns onto the FolioOrb format for you. Every row still passes the same strict checks before it’s added, so Claude only ever widens what’s accepted; it never skips validation. Clean template files skip Claude entirely (and cost nothing), and if Claude is ever slow or unavailable the import falls back to the strict local parse and tells you it did.

Either way, you get a per-row summary: what was added, what was skipped (existing holdings are skipped, never overwritten), and what errored and why. In Claude mode, Senpai adds a one-line recap on top.

Senpai's tip

Editing a CSV in Excel? Watch out for tickers like MAR26 — Excel loves to “helpfully” reformat those into dates. If a row bounces on import with a date-looking ticker, format that column as Text and re-export.
