Polymarket — Sports Prediction Markets

Quick Start

Prefer the CLI — it avoids Python import path issues:

sports-skills polymarket get_sports_markets --limit=20 sports-skills polymarket search_markets --query="NBA Finals"

Python SDK (alternative):

from sports_skills import polymarket

markets = polymarket.get_sports_markets(limit=20) prices = polymarket.get_market_prices(token_id="abc123")

Prerequisites

Core commands (11 commands) work out of the box — no dependencies, no API keys.

CLI commands (30+ commands) require the Polymarket CLI binary:

pip install sports-skills[polymarket]

Or via Homebrew:

brew tap Polymarket/polymarket-cli https://github.com/Polymarket/polymarket-cli brew install polymarket

Trading commands additionally require a configured wallet. Three options:

Option 1 — environment variable

export POLYMARKET_PRIVATE_KEY=0x...

Option 2 — Python SDK (per-session)

from sports_skills import polymarket polymarket.configure(private_key="0x...")

Option 3 — CLI config file (persists across sessions)

polymarket wallet import <private-key> polymarket approve set

If a CLI command returns "polymarket CLI not installed", install with pip install sports-skills[polymarket] .

Important Notes

  • Prices are probabilities. A price of 0.65 means 65% implied probability. No conversion needed.

  • token_id vs market_id : Price and orderbook endpoints require the CLOB token_id , not the Gamma market_id . Always call get_market_details first to get clobTokenIds .

  • search_markets matches event titles, not sport categories. Use specific league names ("Premier League", "Champions League"), not generic terms ("soccer", "football").

  • cli_search_markets is a more powerful full-text search via the CLI binary. Use it when search_markets returns no results.

  • Before complex fetches, run the parameter validator: bash scripts/validate_params.sh <command> [args]

For detailed reference data, see the files in the references/ directory.

Examples

User: "Who's favored to win the NBA Finals?"

  • Call search_markets(query="NBA Finals", sports_market_types="moneyline")

  • Get token_id from the market details

  • Call get_market_prices(token_id="...") for current odds

  • Present teams with implied probabilities (price = probability)

User: "Who will win the Premier League?"

  • Call search_markets(query="English Premier League") -- use full league name

  • Sort results by Yes outcome price descending

  • Present teams with implied probabilities (price = probability)

User: "Show me Champions League odds"

  • Call search_markets(query="Champions League")

  • Present top contenders with prices, volume, and liquidity

User: "Show me the Polymarket leaderboard"

  • Call get_leaderboard(period="week", order_by="pnl", limit=20)

  • Present traders with rank, username, PnL, and volume

User: "What positions does this wallet hold?"

  • Call get_positions(address="0x...")

  • Present positions with outcome, size, avg price, current value, PnL

User: "Buy 10 shares of YES on this market"

  • Call get_market_details(market_id="...") to get token_id

  • Call create_order(token_id="...", side="buy", price="0.55", size="10")

  • Call get_orders() to confirm

Error Handling & Fallbacks

  • If search returns 0 results, try full league names ("English Premier League" not "EPL", "Champions League" not "CL"). search_markets matches event titles.

  • If get_market_prices fails, you likely used market_id instead of token_id . Always call get_market_details first to get CLOB token_id .

  • If prices seem stale, check get_last_trade_price for the most recent trade. Low-liquidity markets may have wide spreads.

  • If a CLI command returns "polymarket CLI not installed", the command requires the Rust binary. The original 11 commands work without the CLI.

  • If a trading command fails with an auth error, ensure a wallet is configured: polymarket wallet create && polymarket approve set .

  • Never fabricate odds or probabilities. If no market exists, state so.
