Built a free open source agentic CLI tool for financial modeling & analysis. Hadn't played around with real equity valuation modeling for awhile and wanted to build tooling to get myself back into the game.Bull.sh lets you query & store 10-Qs, 10-K in a local vector store to chat with them, build investment thesis from scratch or build full framework models through the CLI to export into excel.It's open source, just requires your own Anthropic API key and (optionally) AlphaVantage Free API key if you want save some tokens from scraping. Feel free to play around with it.Some ideas I have for features (amongst improvements to the existing orchestration & valuation frameworks):1. Bull vs. Bear Agent DebateSpawn two adversarial agents: one argues the bull case, one argues the bear case. They critique each other's assumptions, then a moderator agent synthesizes a balanced thesis. Surface the strongest counterarguments automatically.2. Earnings Call AnalyzerAuto-fetch earnings call transcripts (or transcribe audio), detect management tone shifts vs. prior quarters, extract forward guidance, flag hedging language ("we believe", "challenging environment"). Compare CEO sentiment to online & social sentiment.3. Supply Chain Knowledge GraphParse 10-K supplier/customer disclosures + news to build a graph of company relationships. Visualize dependencies, detect concentration risk, propagate shocks ("if TSMC goes down, who's exposed?"). Use Neo4j or networkx.4. Real-time 8-K Alert SystemMonitor SEC EDGAR for new 8-K filings, classify by materiality (executive departure, M&A, guidance change), push alerts via webhook/Slack/email. Let users set watchlists and filter by event type.5. Thesis BacktesterSave thesis snapshots with timestamps. When the stock moves ±20%, resurface the original thesis and score which predictions were right/wrong. Build a track record dashboard showing analyst accuracy over time.

Yes It is a Python CLI agent using standard SEC EDGAR API downloads, an embedded vector store (like Chroma/FAISS), and LLM prompting for financial analysis.
