Open Source AI trading agent that operates autonomously across 1000+ markets - Polymarket, Kalshi, Binance, Hyperliquid, Solana DEXs, 5 EVM chains. Scans for edge, executes instantly, manages risk while you sleep. Agent commerce protocol for machine-to-machine payments. Self-hosted. Built on Claude.
CloddsBot is a self-hosted, chat-driven trading terminal that routes natural-language commands through Claude to execute on prediction markets (Polymarket, Kalshi), crypto spot/perps, and Solana/EVM DeFi. It targets developers who want a single bot managing multiple trading venues without building each integration themselves. The catch: it was built in 12 days for a hackathon, and it handles real money.
The integration surface is genuinely impressive — 10 prediction markets, 7 futures exchanges, and most major Solana/EVM DeFi protocols in one codebase, each with its own handler. The skills system lazy-loads on first use, so a missing SDK for an exchange you don't use won't crash the whole process — that's the right call for a project with this many optional dependencies. The trade ledger with SHA-256 hashing and optional on-chain anchoring gives you an auditable decision trail for the AI, which matters when debugging why a position was opened. The arbitrage detection is grounded in an actual research paper rather than vibes.
The README advertises '118+ trading strategies' in one place and '4 strategies' in the summary table — those aren't reconciled anywhere, and both numbers appear to be inflated. This is a 12-day hackathon project that autonomously executes leveraged trades with real money; there is no mention of live performance data, drawdown figures, or how the risk engine behaves under a bad LLM response. The 'swarm trading' feature (coordinating 20 wallets on Pump.fun with Jito bundles) is a market manipulation tool dressed up in neutral language — the README does not flag this. The self-referential ecosystem — agent forum, agent marketplace, compute API, token launch — adds enormous surface area that has nothing to do with trading quality and reads as platform-building rather than a serious tool.
