Snipe Polymarket opportunities from your own signal sources. Monitors RSS feeds with Trading Agent-grade safeguards.
Snipe Polymarket opportunities from your own signal sources. Monitors RSS feeds with Trading Agent-grade safeguards.
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Your signals, Simmer's trading intelligence. This is a template. The default signal source is RSS feeds โ remix it with any data source (APIs, webhooks, social media, custom scrapers). The skill handles all the plumbing (market matching, safeguards, trade execution). Your agent provides the alpha.
Use this skill when the user wants to: Monitor RSS feeds for trading opportunities Trade on breaking news before markets react Configure their own signal sources and keywords Get Trading Agent-grade safeguards on their trades

User provides RSS feed and market directly: User: "Watch this RSS feed for greenland news: https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=greenland" User: "Snipe any news about trump from this feed" โ Run with --feed and --market flags: python signal_sniper.py --feed "https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=greenland" --market "greenland-acquisition" --dry-run
For automated recurring scans, configure via environment: SettingEnvironment VariableDefaultDescriptionRSS FeedsSIMMER_SNIPER_FEEDS(none)Comma-separated RSS URLsMarketsSIMMER_SNIPER_MARKETS(auto)Comma-separated market IDs (auto-discovers from keywords if empty)KeywordsSIMMER_SNIPER_KEYWORDS(none)Comma-separated keywords to matchConfidenceSIMMER_SNIPER_CONFIDENCE0.7Min confidence to trade (0.0-1.0)Max USDSIMMER_SNIPER_MAX_USD25Max per tradeMax trades/runSIMMER_SNIPER_MAX_TRADES5Maximum trades per scan cycle Polymarket Constraints: Minimum 5 shares per order Trades below this threshold are rejected with an error message
Each cycle the script: Polls configured RSS feeds Filters articles by keywords (if configured) Matches articles to target markets (auto-discovers from keywords if no markets configured) For each match, calls SDK context endpoint for safeguards: Position awareness (already holding?) Flip-flop detection (recently changed direction?) Slippage estimates (is market liquid?) Time decay (resolving soon?) Resolution criteria (what actually resolves this market?) If safeguards pass, infers trade direction from article sentiment Executes trade via SDK (with max trades per run cap) Tracks processed articles to avoid duplicates
Run a scan (dry run by default โ no trades): python signal_sniper.py Execute real trades: python signal_sniper.py --live Check for signals without trading: python signal_sniper.py --scan-only View current config: python signal_sniper.py --config Override for one run: python signal_sniper.py --feed "https://..." --keywords "trump,greenland" --market "abc123" Show processed articles: python signal_sniper.py --history
Before trading, ALWAYS check the context warnings. The skill will show you: WarningActionMARKET RESOLVEDDo NOT tradeHIGH URGENCY: Resolves in XhConsider if signal is timely enoughflip_flop_warning: SEVERESkip - you've been reversing too muchflip_flop_warning: CAUTIONProceed carefully, need strong signalWide spread (X%)Reduce position size or skipSimmer AI signal: X% more bullish/bearishConsider Simmer's oracle opinion
When you find a matching article, analyze it carefully: Read the headline and summary - What is the actual news? Check resolution_criteria - What ACTUALLY resolves this market? Example: "greenland" in headline doesn't mean "acquisition complete" The resolution might be "US formally acquires Greenland by 2027" Does this signal move the needle on THAT specific criteria? Assess confidence (0.0-1.0): How directly does this signal relate to resolution criteria? Is the source credible? Is this news likely already priced in? Only trade if: Confidence > threshold (default 0.7) No severe warnings Signal validates against resolution criteria
User: "Set up news sniping for the Greenland market" โ Ask for RSS feeds they want to monitor โ Configure with market ID and keywords โ Enable cron for recurring scans User: "Check this feed for trading signals" โ Run: python signal_sniper.py --feed "URL" --scan-only โ Show found articles and potential matches User: "Snipe any bitcoin news from CoinDesk" โ Run with CoinDesk RSS and bitcoin-related markets โ Show matches and ask if they want to trade User: "What signals have we processed?" โ Run: python signal_sniper.py --history โ Show recent articles and actions taken
1. RSS poll finds: "Trump and Denmark reach preliminary Greenland agreement" 2. Keywords match: "greenland", "trump" 3. Call context endpoint for market "greenland-acquisition-2027" 4. Check warnings: none severe โ 5. Resolution criteria: "Resolves YES if US formally acquires Greenland by 2027" 6. You analyze: "preliminary agreement" โ "formally acquires" but bullish signal 7. Confidence: 0.75 (positive indicator, not definitive) 8. Check slippage: 2.5% on $25 โ 9. Execute: BUY YES $25 10. Report: "๐ฏ Sniped: Trump/Greenland agreement โ BUY YES $25"
"No feeds configured" Provide feeds in message: "watch this RSS: https://..." Or set SIMMER_SNIPER_FEEDS environment variable "No matching articles found" Check keywords are correct RSS feed might not have recent articles Try --scan-only to see what's in the feed "Skipped due to flip-flop warning" You've been changing direction too much on this market Wait before trading again, or find new information "Slippage too high" Market is illiquid Reduce trade size or skip "Already processed" This article was already seen Working as intended (dedup) "External wallet requires a pre-signed order" WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY is not set in the environment The SDK signs orders automatically when this env var is present โ no manual signing code needed Fix: export WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x<your-polymarket-wallet-private-key> Do NOT attempt to sign orders manually or modify the skill code โ the SDK handles it "Balance shows $0 but I have USDC on Polygon" Polymarket uses USDC.e (bridged USDC, contract 0x2791Bca1f2de4661ED88A30C99A7a9449Aa84174) โ not native USDC If you bridged USDC to Polygon recently, you likely received native USDC Swap native USDC to USDC.e, then retry
Tips for choosing signal sources: Google News RSS: https://news.google.com/rss/search?q=YOUR_TOPIC Niche sources: Better than mainstream (less priced in) Official sources: Government, company announcements Twitter lists โ RSS: Use services like Nitter or RSS.app The skill works best when: Feeds are relevant to your target markets You have specific keywords to filter noise Sources publish before mainstream coverage
