Polymarket Paper Trader

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is mostly a disclosed paper-trading agent, but it can take repeated autonomous actions and may publish leaderboard content through a user's existing GitHub CLI without a clear approval step.

Install only if you want an agent that actively manages a simulated Polymarket portfolio when invoked. Review any generated tweet, stats card, or leaderboard entry before posting, and do not give it access to an authenticated GitHub CLI unless you explicitly want it to publish leaderboard issues under your account.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to act autonomously on first activation: 'Don't ask ... — trade.' That creates an overly broad activation condition where the agent may perform state-changing actions without clear user consent for that session, which is risky even in a paper-trading context because it normalizes unauthorized action and can trigger unwanted external effects such as public posts or persistent account changes.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The recurring 'Every time you wake up' heartbeat directs the agent to repeatedly resolve positions, check orders, scan markets, trade, and suggest sharing results, but does not define a bounded trigger, cadence, or approval model. This can cause repeated autonomous state changes on any invocation, making the agent prone to over-trading, unexpected side effects, and spammy behavior even though the environment uses paper money.
