Polymarket Wallet Xray

ReviewAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

The wallet analysis itself appears read-only, but the skill also requests a Simmer API key and includes account/position access despite advertising that no authentication is needed.

Review this skill carefully before installing. The public wallet x-ray script appears read-only, but do not provide SIMMER_API_KEY unless you specifically want the account-status helper to read your Simmer balance and positions. The skill author should clarify which features need authentication and what permissions the API key has.

Findings (4)

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.

What this means

If you provide the API key, the skill can read private Simmer account and trading-position information, not just public wallet activity.

Why it was flagged

The helper script uses a bearer API key to retrieve account balance, exposure, PnL, and open positions. That is sensitive account access and is broader than the advertised public no-auth wallet analysis.

Skill content
api_key = os.environ.get("SIMMER_API_KEY") ... portfolio = api_request(api_key, "/api/sdk/portfolio") ... result = api_request(api_key, "/api/sdk/positions")
Recommendation

Only provide a Simmer API key if you intend to use account-status features, prefer a read-only or least-privilege key if available, and confirm what permissions the key grants.

What this means

A user may install expecting a public-data-only tool but then be prompted to provide a sensitive credential.

Why it was flagged

The documentation gives conflicting expectations: it prominently says no authentication is needed, then instructs setup to request and store an API key.

Skill content
**No authentication needed.** Queries Polymarket's public CLOB API directly. ... **Ask for Simmer API key** ... Store in environment as `SIMMER_API_KEY`
Recommendation

The skill should clearly separate the no-auth public wallet analyzer from optional authenticated Simmer account features and disclose the credential scope before asking for the key.

What this means

Wallet addresses or markets you analyze may be visible to the external API provider.

Why it was flagged

The main analyzer sends wallet addresses to Polymarket's public data API. This is expected for the stated wallet-analysis purpose and appears read-only.

Skill content
DATA_API_BASE = "https://data-api.polymarket.com" ... url = f"{DATA_API_BASE}/activity?user={quote(wallet.lower(), safe='')}&limit={max_trades}"
Recommendation

Use the tool only for wallet addresses you are comfortable querying through Polymarket-related public APIs.

What this means

Installing packages from the package index adds normal dependency-supply-chain risk.

Why it was flagged

The documentation asks users to install unpinned packages. This is a normal setup pattern, but users should be aware it relies on external package provenance.

Skill content
pip install simmer-sdk requests
Recommendation

Install dependencies from trusted sources, consider pinning versions, and review package provenance if using this in a sensitive environment.
