# 8-k-scanner
You hand over a ticker or a watchlist. The skill pulls every 8-K
disclosure filed against those issuers over the lookback window,
groups the taxonomy rows into filings (one 8-K = many tagged Items,
one accession number), ranks by signal bucket (M&A / Restatement /
Material agreement / Regulatory / Leadership change / Capital /
Earnings / Corporate housekeeping / Other), and surfaces the
high-signal filings first with the supporting text quoted.
This is the "what materially happened this week" read a PM does by
skimming SEC filings each morning. It works because Massive already
parses and taxonomically classifies every Item in every 8-K into a
three-tier taxonomy (primary, secondary, tertiary). No text NLP on
our side.
## When to invoke
- A PM asks "any material 8-Ks on my watchlist this week?"
- A trader wants a Monday-morning M&A scan across a sector basket
- A credit analyst wants to catch restatements, going-concern
disclosures, or debt-covenant events across a portfolio
- The user says "8-K scan", "material events", "any deals or
leadership changes", "did anyone in my book file an 8-K"
Not for: single-item drill-down on one specific 8-K (use the
underlying `/8-K/vX/text` endpoint or read the filing on EDGAR).
Not for the full 8-K narrative (this quotes supporting text at
~220 chars per Item).
## What you need
