Python and CLI commands combine public research with Polygon wallet operations, a split-and-sell execution path and LLM-assisted searches for logically covering market pairs.

Its buy flow splits collateral into both complementary outcomes and sells the unwanted leg through CLOB. The amount therefore enters a split workflow rather than a simple direct ask-side purchase. Contract approvals also submit on-chain transactions, so the execution mechanics matter during configuration. Pair analysis and hedge scans use a model to inspect logical implications between precise market questions. Coverage tiers are analytical outputs, not settlement commitments. Entries are tracked in a local JSON file; reconcile wallet activity performed elsewhere before relying on that position list. ### Who it is for - OpenClaw users seeking Polymarket tools. - Developers studying logically related contracts. - Technical users configuring RPC and model access. ## Features and coverage - **Market commands** Search keywords, inspect one market or list trending contracts. - **Wallet status** Read collateral and gas-token balances. - **Split-and-sell buying** Split collateral and sell the unwanted outcome through CLOB. - **Local position records** Store entries locally and display their current values. - **Pair analysis** Ask the LLM-backed analyzer about a specified market pair. - **Hedge scan** Scan a bounded market set for logical implications and coverage tiers. - **Early exits** Sell a held position through available book liquidity. ## Workflows with PolyClaw ### Research a covering pair Run a small topic scan, inspect the exact implication and resolution rules, then compare combined cost and size. ### Reconcile before exit Inspect the skill’s entry and current value, then compare local records with the wallet before selling. ### Configure services Use RPC and signer for wallet actions and the model-provider key for hedge analysis. ## Pricing and total cost The source is Apache-2.0 licensed. Polygon transactions, RPC usage, model-provider calls and applicable trading costs are separate. ## Getting started **Before you start:** The buy command uses split-and-sell mechanics. 1. Install the skill through the documented OpenClaw route and install Python dependencies with uv. 2. Configure Chainstack RPC and the optional model-provider key. 3. Browse before adding execution credentials, then inspect wallet status and contract approvals. 4. Set trade amounts with split-and-sell mechanics in mind. Buy amounts enter a split workflow rather than direct ask-side spending. ## Useful links ### What to check - The buy command uses split-and-sell mechanics. - Approvals send on-chain transactions. - Local JSON positions may omit trades made elsewhere. - Coverage tiers are model/logic outputs, without settlement commitments. - This skill is for OpenClaw; Alphapoly is a separate standalone application.

It asks more of an integrator than a simple market viewer: buying follows a split-and-sell path, positions rely on local records and pair research depends on an LLM. Based on documented features, setup and access terms.

Public discovery is separate from wallet execution. ### What does buy do? It splits collateral into both outcomes and sells the unwanted side. ### Does the position list include external trades? It tracks local skill records; reconcile other activity separately. ### What uses the model key? Logical-implication and hedge analysis. In this profile
