Polymarket Politics Random 1U

Build and run a Polymarket politics-market trading skill with the AION SDK. Use when the user wants to search active political markets on Polymarket, randomly choose one market, and place a 1 USD trade through Aionmarket using an API key and optionally a wallet private key for self-custody live trading.

This is a template. The default signal is intentionally simple: search active politics markets, pick one at random, and buy 1 USD of YES. Remix the market filter, sizing rule, side selection, or risk checks while keeping the AION plumbing intact.

Use this skill when the user wants a minimal AION SDK trading template for Polymarket politics markets.

What This Skill Does

• Uses the documented AION SDK pattern from the building-skills guide.
• Searches active Polymarket markets with politics-related keywords.
• Filters to politics-style markets and randomly selects one candidate.
• Checks market context before trading.
• Defaults to dry-run mode.
• Places a live 1 USD trade only when the operator explicitly enables live execution.

Inputs To Request From The User

Ask the user for these secrets or environment values before live trading:

1. AION_API_KEY for authenticated AION SDK access.
2. WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY if the user wants self-custody live trading rather than a managed wallet setup.
3. Optional WALLET_ADDRESS if the operator wants personalized context checks.

Do not write secrets into repository files.

How It Works

1. Initialize the SDK client with the AION API key.
2. Search markets with politics-related queries such as politics, election, president, and senate.
3. Keep only active politics candidates.
4. Randomly choose one market.
5. Call market context before trading and skip on warnings.
6. Default to dry-run unless --live or RUN_LIVE=true is provided.
7. For live execution, submit a 1 USD YES trade with source and skill_slug attached.

Run Examples

Dry-run:

bash

python politics_random_1u.py

Live run:

bash

python politics_random_1u.py --live

Safety Rules

• Always default to dry-run.
• Always include source, skill_slug, and human-readable reasoning.
• Always pass venue="polymarket" on read paths.
• Never hardcode API keys or private keys.
• Treat the random entry logic as a demo template, not a production strategy.
