## When to use

Use this skill when you are:
- Discovering Polymarket markets/events, or doing fuzzy search by text
- Pulling orderbooks/prices and historic time series for analysis
- Computing “movers” (dark-horse → trending) across a set of markets
- Placing predictions (buy), cashing out (sell), or redeeming resolved positions
- Preparing or unwinding collateral: Polygon assets / supported bridge deposits ↔ **pUSD** (the V2 trading collateral)
