fashionmascherine-svg/dsh-polymarket-knowhow

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that gives your agent complete, verified Polymarket superpowers: live market-data tools across every Polymarket API (Gamma, CLOB, Data API, Perps, Combos/RFQ, Bridge), opt-in authenticated trading tools, a WebSocket market-stream service, and a bundled knowhow skill distilled from the official docs — so the model never hallucinates endpoints, parameters or auth flows.

Built on the knowledge base of atompilot/polymarket-skill (MIT) and re-verified against the current official OpenAPI specs and live API responses.

Why this plugin

	This plugin	Raw docs / MCP servers
Works offline for knowhow (bundled skill + polymarket_knowledge tool)	✅	❌
Live tools with typed schemas and bounded output	✅	partial
Covers auth flow end-to-end (L1 EIP-712 → L2 HMAC → builder headers)	✅	partial
New 2026 surfaces: Perps (56 ops) and Combos/RFQ	✅ documented + read tools	scattered
Endpoint drift corrected (volume24hr sorts, flat batch payloads, geoblock host, contract moves)	✅ live-verified	❌

Capabilities

Four independent Cordis rows (disable any of them by id in a later patch layer):

Row id	Provides
polymarket-service	ctx.polymarket service: one configured client per Polymarket API (Gamma, CLOB, Data, Perps, RFQ, Bridge, Relayer) with timeout/retry/geoblock-aware HTTP
polymarket-tools	~25 always-on market-data tools + opt-in account/trading tools + Perps tools + polymarket_knowledge
polymarket-skills	Embedded runtime skill polymarket (16 knowledge modules as resources) via ctx.skills
polymarket-stream	Optional market-channel WebSocket bridge emitting polymarket/market-event Cordis events

Model tools (always registered)

• Discovery: polymarket_search, polymarket_events_list (offset + keyset pagination), polymarket_event_get, polymarket_markets_list, polymarket_market_get, polymarket_tags_list
• CLOB data: polymarket_orderbook (single/batch), polymarket_price (single/batch), polymarket_quote (mid+spread+last in one call), polymarket_price_history, polymarket_token_info (tick size, neg-risk, token→market resolution)
• Data API v2: polymarket_positions (status lifecycle + cursor pagination), polymarket_trades_public, polymarket_activity, polymarket_holders, polymarket_leaderboard, polymarket_open_interest, polymarket_live_volume, polymarket_portfolio_value, polymarket_user_stats, polymarket_resolutions, polymarket_approvals
• Meta: polymarket_geoblock_check, polymarket_combo_markets, polymarket_knowledge

Opt-in tools (registered only when configured)

• trading.enabled + L2 credentials → polymarket_account_orders, polymarket_account_trades, polymarket_cancel_orders, polymarket_balance_allowance, polymarket_heartbeat, polymarket_api_keys, polymarket_place_order*
• perps.enabled + perps credentials → polymarket_perps_market_data, polymarket_perps_account

* Order placement signs through the official unified @polymarket/client SDK when it is resolvable (see Trading setup) — it supports both V1 CTF token ids and Protocol V2 position ids. Everything else uses zero-dependency Node crypto.

Install

# From GitHub (pin a commit for reproducibility)
dsh plugin --profile my-profile add github:fashionmascherine-svg/dsh-polymarket-knowhow#<sha>

# From a local checkout
dsh plugin --profile my-profile add ./dsh-polymarket-knowhow

# From a tarball
pnpm pack && dsh plugin --profile my-profile add ./dsh-polymarket-knowhow-0.3.0.tgz

The package ships a self-contained prepare build. A git install fetches sources, so pnpm ≥10 asks you to allow the build once — copy the package key pnpm prints into your profile's pnpm-workspace.yaml:

allowBuilds:
  dsh-polymarket-knowhow: true

Then boot: dsh --profile my-profile. All four rows activate; only safe read-only tools are visible unless you enable trading/perps.

Use in Claude Code

The same repository is also a Claude Code plugin. It bundles:

• the polymarket skill — the 15 knowledge modules under skills/polymarket/references/ (generated from knowledge/, single source of truth);
• a read-only MCP server (scripts/mcp-server.mjs) exposing the live market-data tools (search, events, orderbook, prices, quote, price history, positions, trades, leaderboard, open interest, perps market data, …). Trading/account tools are never exposed — the server is built with credentials resolution disabled and a denylist guard on top.

Install from this repo's bundled marketplace:

/plugin marketplace add fashionmascherine-svg/dsh-polymarket-knowhow
/plugin install polymarket-knowhow@fashionmascherine-svg-polymarket

Or attach just the MCP server to any MCP client:

claude mcp add polymarket-knowhow -- node /path/to/dsh-polymarket-knowhow/scripts/mcp-server.mjs

The prebuilt lib/ is committed, so both paths work out of the box; after touching src/ run npm run build and commit the rebuilt lib/. After editing knowledge/*.md regenerate the skill copies with npm run sync:claude-skill.

Configuration

Defaults are sensible (public endpoints, no credentials, trading off). Override any field from your profile's cordis.patch.yml:

- id: polymarket-service
  config:
    timeoutMs: 20000
    maxRetries: 3
    trading:
      enabled: true
      # Explicit creds… (or leave empty to read POLY_API_KEY / POLY_SECRET /
      # POLY_PASSPHRASE / POLY_ADDRESS from the environment)
      apiKey: ''
      secret: ''
      passphrase: ''
      address: ''        # funder/proxy wallet address
      signatureType: 2   # 0 EOA · 1 POLY_PROXY · 2 GNOSIS_SAFE
    perps:
      enabled: false     # reads POLYMARKET_PROXY / POLYMARKET_SECRET env
    stream:
      enabled: false
      assetIds: []       # CLOB token ids to subscribe at startup
    skills: true         # register the embedded knowhow skill

- id: polymarket-stream
  disabled: false         # rows can be toggled individually

Trading setup

1. Create L2 API credentials once (any method):
   • polymarket-client (Python): AsyncSecureClient.create(private_key=pk).credentials, or
   • install @polymarket/client into the profile and read client.credentials after createSecureClient.
2. Put the four values in config or POLY_* environment variables.
3. For order placement, also make the unified SDK resolvable and set POLY_PRIVATE_KEY:

dsh plugin --profile my-profile add @polymarket/client viem

Read-only account tools (orders, trades, cancels, balances, heartbeat) work without the SDK — they sign requests with Node's built-in HMAC (L2 headers POLY_ADDRESS/SIGNATURE/TIMESTAMP/API_KEY/PASSPHRASE).

⚠️ Trading is real money. Heartbeats cancel all open orders after a >10s lapse; FOK/FAK BUY amount is dollars, SELL is shares. Read knowledge/order-patterns.md first.

Using the service from other plugins

export const inject = ['polymarket']

export function apply(ctx) {
  const { gamma, clob, dataApi } = ctx.polymarket
  const events = await ctx.polymarket.gamma.listEvents({ active: true, limit: 10 })
  const book = await clob.getBook(tokenId)
  ctx.on('polymarket/market-event', (event) => { /* stream.enabled */ })
}

Knowledge modules (bundled)

SKILL.md (entry) · api-endpoints (full verified inventory) · authentication · order-patterns · market-data · websocket · concepts · ctf-operations · fees · bridge · gasless · error-codes · rate-limits · geoblock · perps · combos-rfq

Load via the skill tool (name: polymarket) or directly with polymarket_knowledge (topic or free-text search).

Verification methodology

• Every REST surface was cross-checked against the official OpenAPI specs fetched from docs.polymarket.com.
• Endpoints were then exercised live (read paths) — which caught real drift: camelCase sort fields (volume_24hr → 422), flat batch payloads (params wrapper returns []), /live-volume?id= (not ?event=), geoblock living on polymarket.com/api/geoblock, and moved exchange contract addresses.
• tests/unit (28 tests): hardcoded HMAC golden vectors, retry/Retry-After/error mapping over a local server, tool execution over stubbed fetch incl. cancel happy paths and failure propagation.
• tests/live (11 tests): production smoke tests against Gamma/CLOB/Data-API/Perps.

npm test        # unit suite (builds first)
npm run test:live  # hits the real APIs, read-only
