2D volatility smile and skew analysis for a single expiration date. Maps IV across strikes to reveal put skew, call skew, and smile shape. Returns smile curve data, skew metrics (25-delta skew, risk reversal), and shape classification. Use when: analyzing put/call skew, checking if puts are expensive, understanding directional fear in options pricing, finding skew trades. Triggers on: "vol smile AAPL", "skew analysis NVDA", "put skew for TSLA", "is the smile steep for SPY", "volatility skew META", "smile shape for GOOGL".
