Generates a full dedicated Docusaurus page for every one of the 132 skills
(73 bundled + 59 optional) under website/docs/user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional}/<category>/.
Each page carries the skill's description, metadata (version, author, license,
dependencies, platform gating, tags, related skills cross-linked to their own
pages), and the complete SKILL.md body that Hermes loads at runtime.
Previously the two catalog pages just listed skills with a one-line blurb and
no way to see what the skill actually did — users had to go read the source
repo. Now every skill has a browsable, searchable, cross-linked reference in
the docs.
- website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py — generator that reads skills/ and
optional-skills/, writes per-skill pages, regenerates both catalog indexes,
and rewrites the Skills section of sidebars.ts. Handles MDX escaping
(outside fenced code blocks: curly braces, unsafe HTML-ish tags) and
rewrites relative references/*.md links to point at the GitHub source.
- website/docs/reference/skills-catalog.md — regenerated; each row links to
the new dedicated page.
- website/docs/reference/optional-skills-catalog.md — same.
- website/sidebars.ts — Skills section now has Bundled / Optional subtrees
with one nested category per skill folder.
- .github/workflows/{docs-site-checks,deploy-site}.yml — run the generator
before docusaurus build so CI stays in sync with the source SKILL.md files.
Build verified locally with `npx docusaurus build`. Only remaining warnings
are pre-existing broken link/anchor issues in unrelated pages.

Polymarket — Prediction Market Data
Query prediction market data from Polymarket using their public REST APIs. All endpoints are read-only and require zero authentication.
See references/api-endpoints.md for the full endpoint reference with curl examples.
When to Use
- User asks about prediction markets, betting odds, or event probabilities
- User wants to know "what are the odds of X happening?"
- User asks about Polymarket specifically
- User wants market prices, orderbook data, or price history
- User asks to monitor or track prediction market movements
Key Concepts
- Events contain one or more Markets (1:many relationship)
- Markets are binary outcomes with Yes/No prices between 0.00 and 1.00
- Prices ARE probabilities: price 0.65 means the market thinks 65% likely
outcomePricesfield: JSON-encoded array like["0.80", "0.20"]clobTokenIdsfield: JSON-encoded array of two token IDs [Yes, No] for price/book queriesconditionIdfield: hex string used for price history queries- Volume is in USDC (US dollars)
Three Public APIs
- Gamma API at
gamma-api.polymarket.com— Discovery, search, browsing - CLOB API at
clob.polymarket.com— Real-time prices, orderbooks, history - Data API at
data-api.polymarket.com— Trades, open interest
Typical Workflow
When a user asks about prediction market odds:
- Search using the Gamma API public-search endpoint with their query
- Parse the response — extract events and their nested markets
- Present market question, current prices as percentages, and volume
- Deep dive if asked — use clobTokenIds for orderbook, conditionId for history
Presenting Results
Format prices as percentages for readability:
- outcomePrices
["0.652", "0.348"]becomes "Yes: 65.2%, No: 34.8%" - Always show the market question and probability
- Include volume when available
Example: "Will X happen?" — 65.2% Yes ($1.2M volume)
Parsing Double-Encoded Fields
The Gamma API returns outcomePrices, outcomes, and clobTokenIds as JSON strings
inside JSON responses (double-encoded). When processing with Python, parse them with
json.loads(market['outcomePrices']) to get the actual array.
Rate Limits
Generous — unlikely to hit for normal usage:
- Gamma: 4,000 requests per 10 seconds (general)
- CLOB: 9,000 requests per 10 seconds (general)
- Data: 1,000 requests per 10 seconds (general)
Limitations
- This skill is read-only — it does not support placing trades
- Trading requires wallet-based crypto authentication (EIP-712 signatures)
- Some new markets may have empty price history
- Geographic restrictions apply to trading but read-only data is globally accessible
