Use when your human wants to create a new trading strategy, build a bot, generate a skill, automate a trade idea, turn a tweet into a strategy, or asks "build me a skill that...".

Simmer Skill Builder

Generate complete, runnable Simmer trading skills from a strategy description.

You are building an OpenClaw skill that trades prediction markets through the Simmer SDK. The skill you generate will be installed into your skill library and run by you — it must be a complete, self-contained folder that works out of the box.

Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Strategy

Ask your human what their strategy does. They might:

• Describe a trading thesis in plain language
• Paste a tweet or thread about a strategy
• Reference an external data source (Synth, NOAA, Binance, RSS, etc.)
• Say something like "build me a bot that buys weather markets" or "create a skill for crypto momentum"

Clarify until you understand:

1. Signal — What data drives the decision? (external API, market price, on-chain data, timing, etc.)
2. Entry logic — When to buy? (price threshold, signal divergence, timing window, etc.)
3. Exit logic — When to sell? (take profit threshold, time-based, signal reversal, or rely on auto-risk monitors)
4. Market selection — Which markets? (by tag, keyword, category, or discovery logic)
5. Position sizing — Fixed amount or smart sizing? What default max per trade?

Step 2: Load References

Read these files to understand the patterns:

1. references/skill-template.md — The canonical skill skeleton. Copy the boilerplate blocks verbatim (config system, get_client, safeguards, execute_trade, CLI args).
