## Give this prompt to your agent

<Prompt>
  Use SEC API POST /v1/portfolio/analyze for one-call portfolio factor decomposition. Preserve `holdings`, `exposures`, `fit`, `fit.averageRSquared`, `benchmarkTilts`, `whatIfComparison`, `positionViews`, `positionExposures`, `attribution`, `hedgeSuggestions`, `optimizationNotes`, `factorNeutralPlan`, `optimizerRuntime`, `optimizerCandidateSample`, `optimizerDisclosures`, `summaryMd`, `requestId`, and `traceparent`.
</Prompt>

## Failure posture

* treat non-2xx responses as contract-aware failures, not free-form errors
* preserve `requestId` and `traceparent` in logs and downstream reports
* if provenance or freshness metadata is present, return it unchanged so trust is not lost in the handoff
