AI-generated overview

Queries Polymarket market data and CLOB state and manages orders through the Grimoire venue CLI wrapper.

What it does
Documents how to use the Grimoire venue adapter for Polymarket, covering market discovery, CLOB market data, and order management. It lists canonical commands such as info and search-markets, allowed passthrough groups, blocked groups, and legacy aliases. It also describes runtime configuration, spell actions for order placement and cancellation, and a mid_price metric for comparisons.
When to use it
Use it when an agent needs to discover Polymarket markets, read CLOB market data, or place and cancel CLOB orders through the Grimoire CLI. It is also relevant when configuring Polymarket credentials or writing spells that use the polymarket adapter.
Requirements
Requires the official polymarket binary, installed for example via Homebrew, and the Grimoire CLI (grimoire, npx @grimoirelabs/cli, or the direct grimoire-polymarket binary). Authentication uses POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY by default, with optional API key, secret, passphrase, signature type, and funder variables. Network access to Polymarket is implied. No scripts ship with the skill.

Grimoire Polymarket Skill

Use this skill for Polymarket market discovery, CLOB market data, and order-management operations through the polymarket venue adapter.

Preferred invocations:

  • grimoire venue polymarket ...
  • npx -y @grimoirelabs/cli venue polymarket ... (no-install)
  • bun run packages/cli/src/index.ts venue polymarket ... (repo-local)
  • grimoire-polymarket ... (direct binary from @grimoirelabs/venues)

Recommended preflight:

  • grimoire venue doctor --adapter polymarket --json
  • grimoire venue polymarket info --format json

Commands

Canonical agent commands:

  • grimoire venue polymarket info [--format <auto|json|table>]
  • grimoire venue polymarket search-markets [--query <text>] [--slug <slug|url>] [--question <text>] [--event <text>] [--tag <text>] [--category <text>] [--league <text>] [--sport <text>] [--open-only <true|false>] [--active-only <true|false>] [--ignore-end-date <true|false>] [--tradable-only <true|false>] [--all-pages <true|false>] [--max-pages <n>] [--stop-after-empty-pages <n>] [--limit <n>] [--format <auto|json|table>]

Allowed passthrough groups (official CLI surface, restricted by wrapper policy):

  • markets (list|get|search|tags)
  • data (positions/value/leaderboards/etc.)

Blocked groups in this wrapper (intentionally not exposed for agents):

  • wallet
  • bridge
  • approve
  • ctf
  • setup
  • upgrade
  • shell

Legacy compatibility aliases are still supported (market, book, midpoint, spread, price, last-trade-price, tick-size, neg-risk, fee-rate, price-history, order, trades, open-orders, balance-allowance, closed-only-mode, server-time) but should not be used for new agent flows.

Runtime Configuration

Adapter/runtime auth (for spell execution):

  • required by default: POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY
  • optional API creds: POLYMARKET_API_KEY, POLYMARKET_API_SECRET, POLYMARKET_API_PASSPHRASE
  • optional derive toggle (default true): POLYMARKET_DERIVE_API_KEY=true|false
  • optional signature routing: POLYMARKET_SIGNATURE_TYPE (0 EOA, 1 POLY_PROXY, 2 GNOSIS_SAFE), POLYMARKET_FUNDER
  • grimoire cast / grimoire resume key-based flows inject the same wallet-manager key into the Polymarket adapter, so a separate POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY env is not required there.

Venue CLI backend:

  • Official binary required: polymarket
  • Install: brew tap Polymarket/polymarket-cli && brew install polymarket
  • Optional path override: POLYMARKET_OFFICIAL_CLI=/custom/path/polymarket

Spell Actions

Polymarket uses custom action type with op: "order" for order placement:

spell
polymarket.custom(  op="order",  token_id="TOKEN_ID",  price="0.55",  size="100",  side="BUY",  order_type="GTC",)

The adapter does not support runtime constraints (max_slippage, etc.). Order routing:

  • GTC/GTD → limit order (createAndPostOrder)
  • FOK/FAK → market order (createAndPostMarketOrder)

Metric Surface (Spell Comparisons)

Polymarket exposes mid_price for CLOB token midpoint comparisons:

spell
poly_mid = metric("mid_price", polymarket, USDC, "token_id=<clobTokenId>")

Selector keys accepted: token_id, tokenid, market_id, id. If selector is omitted, the metric falls back to the 3rd argument value.

Adapter Notes

  • Adapter name: polymarket
  • Execution type: offchain
  • Supported chain metadata: 137 (Polygon)
  • Action type: custom
  • Supported custom ops: order, cancel_order, cancel_orders, cancel_all, heartbeat

Order argument aliases accepted:

  • token: token_id or tokenID or tokenId or coin
  • amount: size or amount
  • side: BUY/SELL
  • order type: GTC/GTD/FOK/FAK
  • extra compatibility aliases: arg0..arg5, reduce_only

Order type routing:

  • GTC/GTD -> limit order path (createAndPostOrder)
  • FOK/FAK -> market order path (createAndPostMarketOrder)

Notes

  • Prefer --format json for agent and automation workflows.
  • search-markets is the agent-oriented normalized discovery command; passthrough markets search is thinner and closer to official behavior.
  • Keep prompts/tooling on this CLI surface; do not call Polymarket HTTP APIs directly from advisory tools.
