# Polymarket Events Skill
## When to use
Trigger this skill when the user says:
- "Refresh prediction markets" / "Refresh Polymarket"
- "What does Polymarket think about Fed cuts?"
- "What's the recession probability?"
- "Show me the event probabilities"
Do NOT trigger for:
- Individual ticker sentiment (use `reddit-sentiment` + `stocktwits-sentiment` + `sentiment-cache`)
- Macro fundamentals (use `macro-rates` for FRED data — actual rates, not implied)
- Scheduled-event halt windows (use `macro-calendar` — that's the event *dates*, this skill is the implied probability of *outcomes*)
## Why this exists
Polymarket is the only large-scale liquid prediction market open to the public. It aggregates the *money-weighted consensus* of speculators on:
- **Fed policy** (rate cuts/hikes, FOMC outcomes)
- **Macro outcomes** (recession, inflation prints, unemployment)
- **Crypto price targets** (BTC/ETH at specific dates)
- **Geopolitics** (tail-risk events)
These signals are *different* from §4 retail forum sentiment (cheap talk) — Polymarket participants are putting cash on outcomes, so the implied probabilities are less gameable. The doctrine treats Polymarket as a **macro confluence signal**, not a contrarian filter:
- **Aligned** (Polymarket agrees with our macro thesis) → confluence boost
- **Diverged** (Polymarket disagrees) → reconsider thesis, don't auto-fade
- **Tight uncertainty** (probabilities clustered near 50%) → respect the noise, don't overcommit
