openclaw skills install thetaedge-skill

Thetix Skill

You are interacting with the ThetaEdge thetix API — an Options Intelligence Platform — on behalf of the user. See {baseDir}/reference.md for the full API reference.

Configuration

The skill needs two values: THETAEDGE_API_KEY and THETAEDGE_API_BASE.

Loading credentials

  1. Check shell environment first — Run echo $THETAEDGE_API_KEY in Bash. If both vars are already set, skip to the curl pattern below. If THETAEDGE_API_BASE is not set, default to https://api.thetaedge.ai.

  2. Read from config file — If the vars are not set, check these locations in order:

    • ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json — Extract THETAEDGE_API_KEY and THETAEDGE_API_BASE from skills.entries.thetix.env
    • ~/.config/thetaedge/credentials.json — Extract api_key and api_base Then export them in Bash:
    export THETAEDGE_API_KEY="<value from config>"
export THETAEDGE_API_BASE="<value from config>"  # defaults to https://api.thetaedge.ai

  3. If neither works — Ask the user to set up credentials. They should go to their ThetaEdge Profile > API Keys page to create a key, then configure it:

    Claude Code — Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

    {
  "env": {
    "THETAEDGE_API_KEY": "te_your_key_here"
  }
}

    OpenClaw — Add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

    {
  "skills": { "entries": { "thetix": { "enabled": true, "env": {
    "THETAEDGE_API_KEY": "te_your_key_here",
    "THETAEDGE_API_BASE": "https://api.thetaedge.ai"
  }}}}
}

    Other agents — Create ~/.config/thetaedge/credentials.json:

    {
  "api_key": "te_your_key_here",
  "api_base": "https://api.thetaedge.ai"
}

All API requests require the Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY> header unless using public endpoints.

Curl Pattern

Use Bash with curl for all API calls:

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/..."

For POST requests with JSON body:

curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"key": "value"}' "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/..."

Capability 1: Thetix Chat

Use thetix chat to have conversations about portfolios, opportunities, dashboards, market news, web search, website reading, live market data (stocks and options), calculations, portfolio performance, transactions, and active positions. Thetix can search the web, read URLs, pull market news, fetch live quotes, run calculations, and retrieve portfolio data as part of its chat responses.

Workflow

Processing is asynchronous. Every query follows: submit → poll → retrieve.

Step 1: Get or create a chat collection

Collections are reusable — prefer reusing an existing collection over creating a new one. For account-scoped queries, prefer the dashboard collection associated with that account.

# List existing collections — reuse one if appropriate
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chat-collections"

# Only create a new one if no suitable collection exists
curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "My Chats"}' "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chat-collections"

Step 2: Submit the query

Use the appropriate processing endpoint:

  • POST /api/thetix-chats/process — General queries (portfolios, market data, news, web search, calculations)
  • POST /api/thetix-chats/process-opportunity — Questions about a specific opportunity
  • POST /api/thetix-chats/process-dashboard — Account-scoped queries (requires account_id)
curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "What is my portfolio allocation?", "collection_id": "<collection_id>"}' \
  "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chats/process"

The response returns immediately with { "saved_chat": { "id": "<chat_id>", "job_status": "pending", ... }, "async": true }. Extract saved_chat.id for polling.

Step 3: Poll for completion

Poll the status endpoint every 2 seconds until job_status is no longer "pending" or "processing":

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chats/status?chat_ids=<chat_id>"

Returns [{ "id": "...", "job_status": "...", "job_progress": "...", "updated_at": ... }].

  • null — completed successfully, proceed to step 4
  • "failed" — the job_progress field contains the error message; show it to the user
  • "cancelled" — the chat was cancelled

Step 4: Retrieve the full result

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chats/<chat_id>"

The content field is an array of widget objects (markdown, table, optionsChain, payoffDiagram, etc.). Present the results to the user.

Multi-turn conversations

If the user's question is a continuation or related to a previous chat, prefer reusing that chat rather than starting a new one — this gives thetix the conversation history as context for better answers.

To continue a conversation, pass the same chat_id with the new query. The server appends to the existing chat and uses its history as context automatically.

curl -s -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "Follow-up question", "collection_id": "<collection_id>", "chat_id": "<chat_id>"}' \
  "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chats/process"

Then poll and retrieve as before. Note that the API always returns the full chat history — the content array contains all turns, not just the latest response.

Searching past conversations

Use the search endpoint to find relevant past conversations before starting a new one:

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" \
  "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix-chats/search?q=<search_text>&limit=5"

Returns matching chats. You can also filter by account_id.

Capability 2: Thetix Cards & Boards

Cards are dashboard widgets created from natural language queries. They materialize into visualizations (tables, charts, markdown, options chains, payoff diagrams).

Workflow

  1. Get or create a collection (board) — GET /api/thetix-card-collections or POST /api/thetix-card-collections
  2. Create a card — POST /api/thetix-cards with user_query and collection_id
  3. Poll for materialization — Card processing is async. Poll GET /api/thetix-card-collections/<id>/status until the card's job_status is null (which means completed)
  4. Fetch the card — GET /api/thetix-cards/<card_id> to get the materialized result
  5. Refresh — POST /api/thetix-cards/<card_id>/refresh to update with latest data

Key Fields

  • user_query — Natural language description of what the card should show
  • materialized_result — Array of widget objects (markdown, table, optionsChain, payoffDiagram, etc.)
  • update_cadence_seconds — Auto-refresh interval (0 = manual only)

Capability 3: Opportunities

# Get ideas from the last 7 days
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" \
  "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix/ideas?days=7"

# Get ideas for a specific account from recent reports
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $THETAEDGE_API_KEY" \
  "$THETAEDGE_API_BASE/api/thetix/ideas?reports=3&account_id=<account_id>"

Response Structure

Returns { ideas: [...], summary: {...} }.

  • ideas — Array of idea objects sorted by priority (high first) then deadline (earliest first). Each idea contains: report_id, report_date, account_id, account_name, title, description, priority (high/medium/low), type (roll/trade/monitor/other), estimatedValue, deadline, deadline_timestamp, and widgets.
  • summary — Aggregated counts: total_ideas, by_priority, by_type, and date_range.

Response Formatting

When presenting thetix results to the user:

  • Format monetary values with dollar signs and two decimal places
  • Format percentages with one decimal place
  • Present tables using markdown table syntax
  • For payoff diagrams, describe the key levels (breakeven, max profit, max loss)
  • Summarize long chat responses, highlighting actionable insights
  • When showing opportunity details, always include: ticker, strike, premium, expiration, and key metrics
