Four Pillars
Short answer: Questflow’s financial harness has four pillars. Skills are trading strategies and investor judgment systems. Plugins are external data and tools. Models are the AI reasoning cores. Execution is the markets and platforms where the agent can read and trade. Together they turn fund manager judgment into an AI Finance Agent that can explain, monitor, and act inside your rules.
The map
Skills
Methodology — how the agent judges
Livermore, Buffett, Druckenmiller, VCP, crypto narrative, A-share systems, exclusive trade-labeled skills
Plugins
Data and tools — what the agent can see
Market data, on-chain, news, social, prediction markets, research
Models
Cognition — how the agent thinks
GPT, Claude, Gemini, open models, finance-specialized models
Execution
Venues — where the agent can act
Hyperliquid, Polymarket, OKX, Lighter, and expanding brokers
AI Finance Agent = Financial harness + Two-sided marketplace
Financial harness = Models + Skills + Plugins + Execution AccountsA model without skills is a chatbot. Skills without plugins are opinions. Plugins without execution stop at advice. Execution without judgment is a bot. The harness is the four together.
Why four, not one “AI”
Coding agents split the same way: the LLM, the skills/rules, MCP plugins, and the terminal. Finance needs the same split because data, venues, and judgment are fragmented. The harness is how Questflow closes the loop from “I understand the market” to a scoped order.
