📊 Polymarket Skill for OpenClaw

Browse prediction markets, check odds, and trade on Polymarket directly from your AI agent.

What it does

  • Browse markets - trending, search, filter by category (politics, crypto, sports, etc.)
  • Check odds - real-time Yes/No prices, volume, end dates
  • View order books - see bid/ask depth for any market
  • Price history - track how odds have moved over time
  • Trade - place limit and market orders (buy/sell) with built-in safety confirmations
  • Manage positions - view open orders, cancel trades, check balances

Quick start

Install the skill

# Clone directly from GitHub
git clone https://github.com/mvanhorn/clawdbot-skill-polymarket.git ~/.openclaw/skills/polymarket
 
# Or if you use a custom skills directory
git clone https://github.com/mvanhorn/clawdbot-skill-polymarket.git /path/to/your/skills/polymarket

Browse markets (works immediately, no setup)

Just ask your agent:

  • "What's trending on Polymarket?"
  • "Search Polymarket for AI regulation"
  • "What are the odds on the Fed cutting rates?"

Trade (requires Polymarket CLI + wallet)

  1. Install the Polymarket CLI:

    curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Polymarket/polymarket-cli/main/install.sh | sh
  2. Set up a wallet:

    polymarket wallet create
    polymarket approve set
    
  3. Ask your agent:

    • "Buy 10 shares of YES on [market] at $0.45"
    • "What are my open positions?"
    • "Cancel all my orders"

All trades require explicit confirmation before executing. No surprises.

Safety

  • Trades preview by default. Nothing executes without --confirm.
  • This is real money (USDC on Polygon). The Polymarket CLI is experimental software.
  • Your private key lives in ~/.config/polymarket/config.json. Keep it safe.
