Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: reconstruct distributions from Polymarket temperature-bin markets and trade via the Simmer SDK. Before enabling live trading: (1) Keep the SIMMER_API_KEY secret and give it the minimum permissions possible; treat it as a high-value credential. (2) Test extensively in paper mode (default) and verify behavior and sizing limits. (3) Inspect or vet the 'simmer-sdk' package (check the PyPI/GitHub repository, recent commits, and package maintainers) because pip dependencies are a common supply-chain risk. (4) Note the registry metadata mismatch: the prompt's summary said no required env vars, but the code requires SIMMER_API_KEY — ensure the platform will not inject unexpected credentials. (5) If you plan to run unattended automation, audit the code path that executes live trades (search for the live flag path in trader.py) and consider using a scoped API key or withdrawal limits on the exchange. If you want higher assurance, request the full untruncated trader.py for an independent review of the live-trade execution logic and any network calls.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: polymarket-48h-weather-distribution-trader Version: 0.0.3 The skill bundle implements a legitimate mathematical arbitrage strategy for Polymarket weather markets, identifying mispricings when temperature bin probabilities fail to sum to 100%. The implementation in `trader.py` uses the `simmer-sdk` for market interaction, defaults to a safe simulation mode, and includes robust risk management safeguards such as spread limits and slippage checks. No indicators of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or harmful prompt injection were found.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name and description (temperature-bin distribution arbitrage on Polymarket) align with the actual code and instructions: it searches markets, reconstructs distributions, detects sum/monotonicity violations, and trades via the Simmer SDK. Note: the top-level registry summary in the prompt claimed 'Required env vars: none' and 'Primary credential: none', but both clawhub.json and SKILL.md declare SIMMER_API_KEY as required — this metadata mismatch is an inconsistency to be aware of but does not imply maliciousness.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and trader.py limit actions to market discovery, parsing, distribution construction, ranking violations, and placing trades through the SimmerClient. The instructions and code only read SIMMER_* tunables and the SIMMER_API_KEY; they do not instruct reading arbitrary local files, system credentials, or sending data to unexpected external endpoints beyond the declared Simmer/Polymarket pathways.
Install Mechanism
There is no explicit install script, but clawhub.json declares a pip dependency on 'simmer-sdk' (PyPI/GitHub URLs provided in SKILL.md). Relying on a PyPI package is reasonable for a trading client but introduces typical supply-chain risk (a malicious or compromised PyPI package could be harmful). The skill does not download arbitrary archives or use unknown shorteners.
Credentials
The only high-value credential requested is SIMMER_API_KEY (trading authority), which is proportional to a trading skill. The other SIMMER_* environment variables are tunables for risk limits and are reasonable. The code does not request unrelated credentials (AWS keys, GitHub tokens, etc.).
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not forced to always run (always:false), autostart is false, and cron is null — it will not run automatically by default. The skill can be invoked autonomously by the agent (platform default), which is expected for skills that can trade; there is no evidence it modifies other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install polymarket-48h-weather-distribution-trader
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /polymarket-48h-weather-distribution-trader
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output

Initial release of the 48h Weather Distribution Trader skill. - Detects and trades mispricings in Polymarket weather temperature-bin markets using probability distribution reconstruction. - Identifies sum violations (bins not summing to 100%) and cumulative monotonicity breaks across temperature markets. - Covers 14 major cities with daily temperature markets. - Only executes real trades with the `--live` flag; defaults to paper trading. - All risk and signal thresholds configurable via tunables in Simmer UI.
