Security & Permissions

No API key or authentication required. This skill uses Polymarket's public Gamma API.

What this skill does:

• Makes HTTPS GET requests to gamma-api.polymarket.com (public, unauthenticated)
• Reads market data: odds, volumes, event details, price history
• Paper trading is local simulation only — stored in ~/.polymarket/ as JSON files
• No real money, no wallet, no blockchain transactions

What this skill does NOT do:

• Does not connect to any wallet or financial account
• Does not execute real trades or transactions
• Does not require or handle any credentials or API keys
• Does not send any personal data externally
• Cannot be invoked autonomously by the agent (disable-model-invocation: true)

Data stored locally: ~/.polymarket/watchlist.json, ~/.polymarket/portfolio.json

Review scripts/polymarket.py before first use to verify behavior.

Note

This is read-only + paper trading. Real trading requires wallet authentication (not implemented).
