opentradex

Open a paper long position on any enabled rail — Kalshi, Polymarket, Alpaca, or Coinbase. Invoke when the user says "buy", "go long", "paper long", "yes on <market>", or confirms a suggested entry. Requires rail, symbol, qty; price is optional (defaults to a mid-market mark).

Open a local web dashboard showing open positions, exposure, daily P&L, and recent trades. Invoke when the user says "dashboard", "open dashboard", "show my book", "pnl screen", or asks to visualise their paper-trading state. Runs a zero-dependency HTTP server on 127.0.0.1 and prints the URL.

One-time interactive setup that stores API keys for Kalshi, Polymarket, Alpaca, and Coinbase so OpenTradex can scan markets and paper-trade. Invoke this the very first time a user says "set up OpenTradex", "add my keys", or "start trading". Safe to re-run to add or update a rail.

Emergency flatten — closes ALL open paper positions at their last mark and sets a 30-minute trading cooldown. Never auto-invoke. Only run when the user explicitly types "panic", "flatten", "close everything", or "stop".

Show all open paper positions with entry, mark, and unrealized P&L. Invoke when the user says "positions", "what am I holding", "book", "blotter", or checks in on open trades.

Summarize today's risk — open positions, total exposure, daily realized/unrealized P&L, and panic-cooldown status. Invoke when the user says "risk", "how am I doing today", "P&L", "daily", "blotter", or checks before a new entry.

Scan live markets across enabled rails — Kalshi, Polymarket, Alpaca, Coinbase — and return a ranked list the user can pick from. Use whenever the user asks "what's trading", "what markets are hot", "scan crypto", "show me prediction markets", or any exploration request before a trade.

Close a paper position by id, booking realized P&L to the ledger. Invoke when the user says "sell", "close", "take profit", "cut it", or references a position id. Price is optional — defaults to the last mark.

Conversational trading copilot across Kalshi, Polymarket, Alpaca, and Coinbase. Invoke on any open-ended trading question — "what should I trade today", "help me find a setup", "walk me through a trade", or when no other OpenTradex skill is a clean fit. Combines scan + risk + suggestion in one loop.

Route a freeform trading question through the OpenTradex AI (/api/command). Use when the user explicitly wants the OpenTradex copilot to answer (not Claude itself) — so they get the persona, memory, and role-based reasoning from the harness.

Check the OpenTradex trader's current risk state — daily P&L, open positions, cap utilization, halted flag. Use when the user asks about risk, exposure, "how am I doing", drawdown, or whether they can take another trade.

Check whether the OpenTradex gateway is running and what mode it's in (paper-only / paper-default / live-allowed). Use when the user asks if the gateway is up, what mode it's in, which exchanges are live, or to troubleshoot a connection.

MANUAL-ONLY. Emergency-flatten every open OpenTradex position. Never auto-invoked. Only runs when the user explicitly types /opentradex:panic-flatten.

Scan OpenTradex-enabled exchanges (Kalshi, Polymarket, Alpaca, crypto) for live markets. Use when the user asks to find trading opportunities, scan markets, see what's moving, or look for candidates to trade.

Show the OpenTradex user's open positions with unrealized P&L. Use when the user asks about positions, the blotter, what they're holding, or P&L on a specific ticker.
