Usage Guidance
This skill appears internally consistent for automated Polymarket trading. Before installing: 1) Treat SIMMER_API_KEY as a high-value credential — verify what permissions that API key grants in Simmer/Polymarket and use a minimally privileged key. 2) Start in paper mode (no --live) to validate behavior and parsing against live market names; the skill will perform real trades if you run with --live. 3) Inspect or lock down the 'simmer-sdk' dependency and ensure it is from a trusted source. 4) If you enable any optional remixes (Binance overlay, external price feeds), review those additions for network endpoints and credential use. 5) Reduce MAX_POSITION / other tunables when first running live to limit financial exposure.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: polymarket-candle-timeframe-mismatch-trader
Version: 0.0.3
The skill implements a legitimate multi-timeframe trading strategy for Polymarket crypto markets. Analysis of 'trader.py' and 'SKILL.md' shows the code functions as described, using the 'simmer-sdk' to compare 5-minute and hourly market data. It includes safety features such as a default paper-trading mode (venue='sim') and lacks any indicators of data exfiltration, credential theft, or malicious command execution.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description, SKILL.md, clawhub.json, and trader.py all describe a Polymarket Up/Down trading strategy. The skill requires SIMMER_API_KEY (trading authority) and lists 'simmer-sdk' as a pip dependency; both are appropriate and expected for a Simmer/Polymarket trading skill.
Instruction Scope
The runtime instructions and trader.py focus on market discovery, interval parsing, consensus detection, and order placement; default behavior is paper trading. SKILL.md suggests optional remixes (e.g., overlaying Binance price feeds, volume weighting), which would expand external network usage if implemented, but these are optional enhancements and are not required for the core skill to run.
Install Mechanism
No arbitrary download/install URLs are present. The manifest declares a pip dependency on 'simmer-sdk' (standard package registry usage). There is no install script that pulls code from untrusted URLs or writes unexpected binaries.
Credentials
The only required secret-level environment variable is SIMMER_API_KEY (declared in SKILL.md and clawhub.json) which is appropriate for a trading client. Other environment variables are tunables (position sizes, thresholds) and not sensitive. The code reads only these declared variables.
Persistence & Privilege
autostart/cron are false and 'always' is not set; the skill does not request forced persistent inclusion. Model invocation is allowed (the platform default) but there are no extra privileges requested.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install polymarket-candle-timeframe-mismatch-trader - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/polymarket-candle-timeframe-mismatch-trader - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output

Fix apply_skill_config AttributeError for new Simmer SDK compatibility
v1.0.0
Candle Timeframe Mismatch Trader v1.0.0
- Initial release: multi-timeframe trading strategy for Polymarket crypto "Up or Down" markets.
- Detects and trades when 5-minute candle consensus diverges from the slower-moving hourly market.
- Executes trades on the hourly market based on a directional majority (4 out of 6) in the 5-minute sub-intervals.
- Safety-first: defaults to paper trading mode, with live trading only via explicit --live flag.
- Fully parameterized for risk, volume, spread, and consensus thresholds; adjustable via the Simmer UI.
- Designed as a template for further signal enhancement with real-time feeds or multi-asset confirmation.
