Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/guzus/mgnlia-polymarketWhat This Skill Does
The Polymarket CLI skill allows your AI agent to interact directly with prediction markets via the terminal. It provides a comprehensive interface for browsing markets, analyzing odds, executing trades, and managing your wallet positions on the Polymarket decentralized exchange. By leveraging the underlying polymarket binary, the agent can perform high-speed data retrieval and programmatic order execution, making it an essential tool for users who want to treat prediction markets as a data-driven trading environment.
Installation
To integrate this skill, run: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/guzus/mgnlia-polymarket. Ensure that the polymarket binary is installed on your system. You can verify this by running polymarket --version. If it is not present, use the provided install script: curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Polymarket/polymarket-cli/main/install.sh | sh. For trading, you must also complete the interactive polymarket setup to configure your wallet and approve the necessary contracts.
Use Cases
This skill is perfect for users who need to monitor the pulse of global events through decentralized betting. You can use it to fetch real-time midpoints and order books for specific market tokens, allowing you to gauge the collective confidence in political or crypto-related outcomes. Advanced users can automate market-making or arbitrage strategies by using the JSON output mode for parsing by external scripts. Additionally, it serves as a portfolio management tool to track your current open positions, historical trades, and account balance across the Polymarket platform.
Example Prompts
- "What are the current betting odds for the next presidential election? Please list the top 5 markets under the politics category."
- "Check the current midpoint price for the Bitcoin price target token ID 0x123... and show me the top 3 levels of the orderbook."
- "Buy 50 shares of the 'Yes' outcome for the current market at a limit price of 0.60 and cancel any other pending limit orders I have active."
Tips & Limitations
Always append -o json to your commands when working within an agent workflow to ensure structured, machine-readable data. Be aware that trading actions require an active wallet with sufficient funds and approval for contract interactions. This skill is strictly for Polymarket; do not attempt to use it for general cryptocurrency trading on centralized exchanges. Ensure your configuration directory at ~/.config/polymarket/ is secure, as it contains sensitive wallet-related data.
