Detect current market regime using npx neural-trader — bull/bear/ranging/volatile classification with recommended strategy. Use when the user asks about market conditions, wants to pick a strategy for current conditions, or before running a backtest/signal that should be regime-aware.

Detect the current market regime using neural-trader's regime detection engine.

Steps:
1. Ensure neural-trader is available:
   `npm ls neural-trader 2>/dev/null || npm install --ignore-scripts neural-trader`
2. Run regime detection:
   ```bash
   npx neural-trader --regime --symbol TICKER
   ```
   One symbol per call (`--regime-detect` and `--symbols` are not recognised; the CLI answers "Unknown command"). In 2.8.11 this classifies a built-in sample price series (the result says "Synthetic prices used for demo"), so it is a demo of the output shape, not a read on TICKER. Say so in the report. For a real read, get the symbol's bars with `--backtest --live` (`dataSource: "yahoo-finance"`) and classify from those.
3. Technical indicators have no standalone CLI flag in 2.8.11 (`--indicators` is rejected). Use the `nt.calculateRsi` / `nt.calculateSma` library functions on real bars, or the `multi-indicator` strategy inside a backtest.
4. Use SONA for regime prediction:
   `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__neural_predict({ input: "indicators: RSI=X, ADX=Y, VIX=Z" })`
5. Search for similar historical regimes:
   `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_search({ query: "regime similar to CURRENT", namespace: "trading-analysis" })`
6. Present: regime classification, confidence, recommended strategy type, historical precedents. If step 2 returned the synthetic sample, present only the output shape and state that no regime was measured.
7. Store analysis:
   `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__memory_store({ key: "regime-DATE", value: "REGIME_ANALYSIS", namespace: "trading-analysis" })`
