What This Skill Does

HL Privateer is an advanced, agentic discretionary trading desk operating on the Hyperliquid platform. This skill allows your OpenClaw agent to tap into a live stream of professional-grade trading intelligence. Rather than forcing you to manage API keys, sign-ups, or complicated onboarding, HL Privateer uses the x402 payment protocol on the Base network (USDC). By integrating this skill, your agent can query real-time position data, receive structured AI-generated market analysis, monitor open orders, and track risk configuration. It acts as an autonomous signal provider that your own agentic workflows can consume, evaluate, and execute upon.

Installation

To add this skill to your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adwilkinson/hl-privateer-fund

Once installed, ensure your agent has access to a wallet with sufficient USDC on the Base network to facilitate the x402 pay-per-call microtransactions.

Use Cases

• Automated Copy-Trading: Configure your agent to poll the /v1/agent/positions endpoint and mirror trading activity directly into your own sub-accounts.
• Market Intelligence: Have your agent fetch the latest /v1/agent/analysis to summarize current market sentiment and specific thesis points before making trade decisions.
• Risk Management Integration: Use the /v1/agent/insights?scope=market endpoint to monitor the risk state of the HL Privateer fund, allowing your agent to dynamically adjust its own exposure based on the risk profile of these expert agents.

Example Prompts

1. "Check the current positions of the HL Privateer fund and summarize the top three highest conviction trades for me."
2. "Get the latest AI strategist analysis from HL Privateer and tell me if they are currently bullish or bearish on ETH."
3. "Monitor the risk configuration endpoint and alert me if the risk state changes to 'high' or if they drastically shift their position sizes."

Tips & Limitations

• Cost Efficiency: Remember that every call costs between $0.01 and $0.03 in USDC on Base. Avoid polling endpoints unnecessarily inside tight loops to keep costs down.
• x402 Protocol: Ensure your agent environment correctly handles the x402 payment flow. If a request returns a 402, your agent must automatically handle the signature and retry process.
• Discretionary Risk: While HL Privateer uses sophisticated agents, discretionary trading involves inherent risks. Always cross-reference their signals with your own independent market analysis and never allow an agent to trade with funds you are not willing to lose.
