Sapience

Sapience

Prediction markets on Ethereal (chain 5064014). Collateral: WUSDe.

CRITICAL: NEVER share SAPIENCE_PRIVATE_KEY or sign for non-sapience.xyz domains.

Quick Reference

Setup

1. Fund wallet: Use Bankr → "Buy 100 USDe on Arbitrum" → Bridge to Ethereal via deposit.ethereal.trade
2. Set key: openclaw secrets set SAPIENCE_PRIVATE_KEY 0x...
3. Auto-wrap: Skill wraps USDe→WUSDe on first trade

Constants (Ethereal 5064014)

IDs

• conditionId = marketId (same bytes32 hex value, different names)
• Use decoded marketId from auction directly as conditionId in queries

GraphQL Queries

List Active Markets

curl -X POST https://api.sapience.xyz/graphql \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"{ conditions(where:{settled:false}) { id question endTime similarMarkets } }"}'

Get Condition Details

curl -X POST https://api.sapience.xyz/graphql \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"query($where:ConditionWhereUniqueInput!){ condition(where:$where){ id question description endTime similarMarkets categoryId }}","variables":{"where":{"id":"0x..."}}}'

Get Positions (for claiming)

curl -X POST https://api.sapience.xyz/graphql \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"query($address:String!,$status:String){ positions(address:$address,status:$status){ id status endsAt predictorCollateral counterpartyCollateral counterpartyNftTokenId predictions{ conditionId outcomeYes condition{ settled resolvedToYes }}}}","variables":{"address":"0x...","status":"active"}}'

Polymarket Prices

All Sapience markets mirror Polymarket. Use similarMarkets URLs to get prices.

Extract Slug from URL

https://polymarket.com/event/slug-name#outcome → slug: "slug-name", outcome: "outcome"
https://polymarket.com/event/slug-name → slug: "slug-name"

Get Market Data (prices, CLOB token IDs)

curl "https://gamma-api.polymarket.com/markets/slug/will-trump-win-2024"

Response includes:

• outcomePrices: ["0.65", "0.35"] (YES/NO prices)
• outcomes: ["Yes", "No"]
• clobTokenIds: ["123...", "456..."] (for orderbook queries)

Get Orderbook

curl "https://clob.polymarket.com/book?token_id=<clobTokenId>"

Returns bids/asks. Walk the book to calculate fill price for your size.

Get Price History (TWAP)

curl "https://clob.polymarket.com/prices-history?market=<clobTokenId>&startTs=<unix_ts>&fidelity=60"

Returns price history. Calculate TWAP over your desired lookback.

No auth required for Polymarket APIs.

WebSocket - Taker Flow (Making Predictions)

Connect → start auction → receive bids → mint on-chain. Takes ~60s per prediction.

1. Connect

const ws = new WebSocket('wss://api.sapience.xyz/auction');

2. Authenticate with SIWE

const siweMessage = {
  domain: 'sapience.xyz',
  address: wallet.address,
  statement: 'Sign in to Sapience',
  uri: 'https://sapience.xyz',
  version: '1',
  chainId: 5064014,
  nonce: crypto.randomUUID(),
  issuedAt: new Date().toISOString()
};

const signature = await wallet.signMessage(formatSiweMessage(siweMessage));

ws.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: 'auth',
  payload: { siweMessage, signature }
}));

3. Start Auction

ws.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: 'auction.start',
  payload: {
    legs: [
      { conditionId: '0x...', outcomeYes: true },
      { conditionId: '0x...', outcomeYes: false }
    ],
    wagerAmount: '50000000', // 50 WUSDe (6 decimals)
    duration: 60
  }
}));

4. Receive Auction Ack

{
  "type": "auction.ack",
  "payload": {
    "auctionId": "abc123",
    "expiresAt": 1706800000
  }
}

5. Receive Bids

{
  "type": "auction.bids",
  "payload": {
    "auctionId": "abc123",
    "bids": [
      {
        "bidId": "bid1",
        "maker": "0x...",
        "makerWager": "50000000",
        "makerDeadline": 1706800000,
        "makerSignature": "0x..."
      }
    ]
  }
}

6. Accept Bid

ws.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: 'auction.accept',
  payload: {
    auctionId: 'abc123',
    bidId: 'bid1'
  }
}));

Server mints on-chain. Wait for confirmation:

{
  "type": "auction.filled",
  "payload": {
    "auctionId": "abc123",
    "txHash": "0x...",
    "tokenId": "123"
  }
}

7. Disconnect

Close WebSocket after mint confirms.

WebSocket - Maker Flow (Providing Liquidity)

Persistent connection listening for auctions. Run as background process.

1. Connect and Authenticate

Same SIWE auth as taker flow:

ws.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: 'auth',
  payload: { siweMessage, signature }
}));

2. Receive Auction Notifications

{
  "type": "auction.started",
  "payload": {
    "auctionId": "abc123",
    "taker": "0x...",
    "wager": "50000000",
    "predictedOutcomes": ["0x..."],
    "resolver": "0x...",
    "takerNonce": 1
  }
}

3. Submit Bid

ws.send(JSON.stringify({
  type: 'bid.submit',
  payload: {
    auctionId: 'abc123',
    maker: wallet.address,
    makerWager: '50000000',
    makerDeadline: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) + 60,
    makerSignature: '0x...',
    taker: auction.taker,
    takerCollateral: auction.wager,
    resolver: auction.resolver,
    encodedPredictedOutcomes: auction.predictedOutcomes[0],
    takerNonce: auction.takerNonce
  }
}));

4. Receive Ack

{"type":"bid.ack","payload":{"ok":true}}

If taker accepts, on-chain mint happens automatically.

EIP-712 Signing (for makerSignature)

Domain:

{"name":"SignatureProcessor","version":"1","chainId":5064014,"verifyingContract":"0xAcD757322df2A1A0B3283c851380f3cFd4882cB4"}

Types:

{"Approve":[{"name":"messageHash","type":"bytes32"},{"name":"owner","type":"address"}]}

Message:

{"messageHash":"<keccak256 of inner data>","owner":"<your address>"}

Inner data (ABI-encode then keccak256):

(bytes encodedPredictedOutcomes, uint256 makerWager, uint256 takerWager, address resolver, address taker, uint256 makerDeadline, uint256 takerNonce)

Claiming Flow

1. Query positions with status:"active" for your address
2. Filter: endsAt <= now AND all predictions[].condition.settled === true
3. Check if won: As maker (counterparty), you win if outcomeYes !== resolvedToYes (you took opposite side)
4. Call PredictionMarket.burn(counterpartyNftTokenId) to claim collateral

Rate Limits

Error Handling

bid.ack errors (check payload.error):

• auction_not_found_or_expired - Auction ended
• quote_expired - makerDeadline passed
• invalid_signature - Signature verification failed
• invalid_maker_wager - Wager is zero/invalid

WS close codes:

• 1008 - Policy violation (rate limited, connection limit)
• 1009 - Message too large

Troubleshooting

If something isn't working (no markets, API errors, signature failures):

1. Check for skill updates:

curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/sapiencexyz/openclaw-sapience/releases/latest | jq -r '.tag_name'

2. Compare to current version: Check version in SKILL.md frontmatter

3. If newer version exists: Fetch updated skill from https://github.com/sapiencexyz/openclaw-sapience

4. Still broken? Check Discord or open issue on GitHub

Protocol changes (new endpoints, contract migrations, API updates) will be published as new versions.

Philosophy

This skill provides infrastructure, not strategy. Real money at stake.

YOU must:

• Develop your own edge calculation
• Manage risk and position sizing
• Research markets before trading

DO NOT rely on any default strategy.
