Introduction
# CEORater Skill
Query CEO performance data for S&P 500 and major U.S. public companies via the CEORater API.
## Prerequisites
1. Get an API key at https://www.ceorater.com/api-docs.html ($99/month per user) 2. Set the environment variable: `CEORATER_API_KEY=zpka_your_key_here`
**Licensing Note:** Self-serve API access permits individual research and analysis. Integrating CEORater data into proprietary firm models, AI/ML training, or building products requires an Enterprise Agreement — contact [email protected].

## API Endpoints
### Get CEO by Ticker ```bash curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $CEORATER_API_KEY" \ "https://api.ceorater.com/v1/ceo/AAPL?format=raw" ```
### Search CEOs ```bash curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $CEORATER_API_KEY" \ "https://api.ceorater.com/v1/search?q=technology&format=raw" ```
### List All CEOs ```bash curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $CEORATER_API_KEY" \ "https://api.ceorater.com/v1/ceos?limit=100&format=raw" ```
### Get Metadata (live record count + last refresh timestamp) ```bash curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $CEORATER_API_KEY" \ "https://api.ceorater.com/v1/meta" ```
## Usage Instructions
When the user asks about CEO performance, ratings, or executive compensation:
1. **Single CEO lookup:** Use the `/v1/ceo/{ticker}` endpoint 2. **Sector/industry analysis:** Use `/v1/search?q={query}` 3. **Bulk data:** Use `/v1/ceos?limit=N`
Always use `format=raw` for numeric values suitable for calculations.
### Example Queries
- "What's the CEORaterScore for Tim Cook?" → GET /v1/ceo/AAPL - "Show me technology sector CEOs" → GET /v1/search?q=technology - "Who are the top-rated CEOs?" → GET /v1/ceos, sort by ceoraterScore - "Compare Tim Cook vs Satya Nadella" → GET /v1/ceo/AAPL and /v1/ceo/MSFT
## Response Format (raw)
```json { "companyName": "Apple Inc.", "ticker": "AAPL", "sector": "Technology", "industry": "Computer Manufacturing", "ceo": "Tim Cook", "founderCEO": false, "ceoraterScore": 87, "alphaScore": 93.5, "revenueCagrScore": 75.2, "revenueCagr": 0.042, "compScore": "C", "tsrMultiple": 22.23, "tenureYears": 14.4, "avgAnnualTsrRatio": 1.55, "compPer1PctTsrMM": 0.482, "tsrVsSpyRatio": 15.64, "avgAnnualVsSpyRatio": 1.09, "compensationMM": 74.6 } ```
## Error Handling
| Code | Meaning | |------|---------| | 401 | Missing or invalid API key | | 404 | Ticker not found | | 400 | Bad request parameters (for example, missing `q` on search) | | 429 | Rate limited, retry with backoff |
## Helper Script
For convenience, use `{baseDir}/scripts/ceorater.sh`:
```bash # Get single CEO {baseDir}/scripts/ceorater.sh get AAPL
# Search {baseDir}/scripts/ceorater.sh search "healthcare"
# List top N {baseDir}/scripts/ceorater.sh list 20 ```
