Polymarket Agents

Polymarket Agents is a developer framework and set of utilities for building AI agents for Polymarket.

This code is free and publicly available under MIT License open source license (terms of service)!

Features

• Integration with Polymarket API
• AI agent utilities for prediction markets
• Local and remote RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) support
• Data sourcing from betting services, news providers, and web search
• Comphrehensive LLM tools for prompt engineering

Getting started

This repo is inteded for use with Python 3.9

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/{username}/polymarket-agents.git
   cd polymarket-agents
   

2. Create the virtual environment

   virtualenv --python=python3.9 .venv
   

3. Activate the virtual environment

   • On Windows:

   .venv\Scripts\activate
   

   • On macOS and Linux:

   source .venv/bin/activate
   

4. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

5. Set up your environment variables:

   • Create a .env file in the project root directory

   cp .env.example .env
   

   • Add the following environment variables:

   POLYGON_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=""
   OPENAI_API_KEY=""
   

6. Load your wallet with USDC.

7. Try the command line interface...

   python scripts/python/cli.py
   

   Or just go trade!

   python agents/application/trade.py
   

8. Note: If running the command outside of docker, please set the following env var:

   export PYTHONPATH="."
   

   If running with docker is preferred, we provide the following scripts:

   ./scripts/bash/build-docker.sh
   ./scripts/bash/run-docker-dev.sh
   

Architecture

The Polymarket Agents architecture features modular components that can be maintained and extended by individual community members.

APIs

Polymarket Agents connectors standardize data sources and order types.

• Chroma.py: chroma DB for vectorizing news sources and other API data. Developers are able to add their own vector database implementations.

• Gamma.py: defines GammaMarketClient class, which interfaces with the Polymarket Gamma API to fetch and parse market and event metadata. Methods to retrieve current and tradable markets, as well as defined information on specific markets and events.

• Polymarket.py: defines a Polymarket class that interacts with the Polymarket API to retrieve and manage market and event data, and to execute orders on the Polymarket DEX. It includes methods for API key initialization, market and event data retrieval, and trade execution. The file also provides utility functions for building and signing orders, as well as examples for testing API interactions.

• Objects.py: data models using Pydantic; representations for trades, markets, events, and related entities.

Scripts

Files for managing your local environment, server set-up to run the application remotely, and cli for end-user commands.

cli.py is the primary user interface for the repo. Users can run various commands to interact with the Polymarket API, retrieve relevant news articles, query local data, send data/prompts to LLMs, and execute trades in Polymarkets.

Commands should follow this format:

python scripts/python/cli.py command_name [attribute value] [attribute value]

Example:

get-all-markets Retrieve and display a list of markets from Polymarket, sorted by volume.

python scripts/python/cli.py get-all-markets --limit <LIMIT> --sort-by <SORT_BY>

• limit: The number of markets to retrieve (default: 5).
• sort_by: The sorting criterion, either volume (default) or another valid attribute.
