Research direction
This issue requests adding options trading functionality to the Robinhood Node.js client. The existing codebase in the repository provides endpoints for stocks and other features; the contributor should examine the structure of existing modules (e.g., lib/ and examples/) to follow the same patterns. No comments from maintainers clarify acceptance criteria, so the contributor may need to propose a design and get feedback. The Robinhood API documentation for options (if available) should be consulted to implement the three listed features.
