No suspicious patterns detected.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
If enabled for live trading, the skill can spend real funds from the configured Polymarket wallet.
The skill asks for sensitive wallet authority so it can sign live Polymarket orders.
Ask for wallet private key (required for live trading) ... Store in environment as `WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY`
Use a dedicated low-balance wallet, keep the private key out of chat logs, start with dry-run mode, and set strict position and daily budget limits.
Running with `--live` can place actual Polymarket trades and lose money if the strategy or market conditions are unfavorable.
The trading action is explicitly disclosed and gated by live mode, but it is still a high-impact financial operation.
All trades execute on Polymarket with real USDC. Use `--live` for real trades, dry-run is the default.
Confirm each live deployment, test in dry-run first, and avoid giving the agent permission to switch to live mode without explicit user approval.
A cron or heartbeat setup could keep placing trades repeatedly until the user disables it.
The documentation shows how to schedule recurring live trading. This is user-directed and not hidden, but it can continue operating after setup.
*/5 * * * * cd /path/to/skill && python fastloop_trader.py --live --quiet
Only add scheduled live trading if you understand how to stop it, and periodically verify that the schedule, budget, and wallet balance are still appropriate.
A bad signal or misconfiguration could lead to repeated losses without automated stop-loss protection.
The skill warns that normal stop-loss and take-profit monitoring will not protect these fast trades.
Risk monitoring does not apply to sub-15-minute markets... Any risk settings you configure in the Simmer dashboard have no effect on these positions.
Use small position sizes, set a low daily budget, and do not rely on dashboard stop-loss settings for 5-minute or 15-minute markets.
Future SDK versions could change behavior in a component that handles trading and credentials.
The skill relies on an external SDK with a minimum version constraint rather than an exact pinned version.
"pip": ["simmer-sdk>=0.11.1"]
Install from a trusted package source and consider pinning a reviewed SDK version in production.
