Share, fork & the gallery

Publish a private, revocable link to a run, fork someone else's strategy, and browse the community gallery.

Any finished run can become a link. Sharing is opt-in and revocable, forking drops a shared strategy straight into your own terminal, and the gallery is where shared strategies get discovered.

Share a run#

A shared backtest opens at a /s/… link; a shared portfolio at /sp/…. Both are sanitized, read-only reports, the equity curve, metric tiles and grade, with no internal ids. A viewer sees the report, not your terminal, and one line naming who published it.

  • Private by default. Nothing is shared until you mint a link from the Share dialog. The link carries a random 122-bit token, so it can't be guessed or enumerated.
  • Revocable. Hit Revoke and the link stops resolving immediately, the page 404s. The same works over the API (DELETE /v1/backtests/:id/share) and over MCP (share_backtest with revoke: true).
A live link is public to anyone who holds it

While a link is live, anyone with the URL can open the report, it just isn't listed or indexed. Revoke it when you're done, and don't share a run you consider sensitive.

Who a shared run is credited to#

Every shared report and gallery card names its author.

  • Set a username on Account → Profile and that handle is what viewers see, written as @yourname. It is 3–20 characters, letters, numbers and underscores, and unique across the platform.
  • Without a username, your account email is shown instead. The Share dialog says which of the two applies before you mint a link, so you can set a handle first.
  • Social preview images only ever carry a username, never an email, because those images are cached by other services and cannot be recalled.
  • Changing your handle updates every page that already links to your runs. A released handle is held for 30 days so nobody else can take it and inherit your links, and you can reclaim it at any time.

Fork a strategy#

A shared backtest page carries a Fork this strategy button. It opens your terminal with the exact query prefilled: nothing runs automatically, so you review it, tweak it, and run it as your own. It's the fastest way to start from someone else's idea.

Shared portfolios are view-only, there's no fork button on a /sp/… page.

The gallery is an opt-in, ranked board of strategies people have chosen to publish. List one of your own from the Share dialog's "list in the gallery" toggle (a run must be shared first).

  • Sort by Sharpe, total return, or Deflated Sharpe (the overfitting-adjusted confidence score).
  • Filter by grade, asset, or free-text search.
  • Each card names its author and opens its /s/… report, where you can fork it.
