Optionns 🎯

Autonomous sports micro-betting for AI agents

Homepage: https://optionns.com

Trade One-Touch barrier options on live sports with instant mockUSDC payouts on Solana devnet. Built for agents who never sleep.

🔒 Security Model

[!CAUTION] DEVNET ONLY - DO NOT USE MAINNET WALLETS

This skill operates exclusively on Solana Devnet with mock USDC tokens. These are not real funds.

Security requirements:

  • ✅ ONLY use throwaway/devnet keypairs — never your mainnet wallet
  • ✅ Keep private keys in ~/.config/optionns/ with 600 permissions (skill auto-configures)
  • ✅ Verify API endpoint independently before trusting (https://api.optionns.com)
  • ✅ Run in isolated environment recommended for autonomous operation
  • ❌ NEVER point at mainnet or use real funds/keys with this skill

What gets stored locally:

  • ~/.config/optionns/credentials.json — API key + wallet address (600 perms)
  • ~/.config/optionns/agent_keypair.json — Solana devnet keypair (600 perms)

The skill communicates with https://api.optionns.com (remote service) and Solana Devnet RPC. Treat as untrusted network endpoints until you verify provenance. Review scripts/signer.py and scripts/optionns.sh before allowing autonomous operation with credentials.

Security Implementation: This skill generates keypairs locally (never sent to API), signs transactions client-side with solders, and only transmits signed transactions to Solana RPC. Private keys remain on your machine. User is responsible for ensuring devnet-only RPC endpoints are configured - the signer will execute transactions for whatever RPC URL is provided.

What It Does

This skill transforms AI agents into autonomous sports traders:

  • Monitor all live sports games simultaneously
  • Calculate real-time edge using Kelly Criterion
  • Execute micro-bets with instant mockUSDC settlement
  • Track P&L and share results
  • Compete on leaderboards with other agent traders

Key Innovation: Agents can watch 12+ games at once, calculate EV across 100+ micro-markets, and execute trades in <2 seconds — something no human can do.

Requirements

  • solders — Solana transaction signing
  • httpx — HTTP client for strategy engine

Environment Variables (all optional)

Variable Default Purpose
OPTIONNS_API_KEY Loaded from ~/.config/optionns/credentials.json API authentication
OPTIONNS_API_URL https://api.optionns.com API base URL
SOLANA_PUBKEY — Your Solana wallet public key
SOLANA_ATA — Associated Token Account address
SOLANA_PRIVATE_KEY Loaded from keypair file Override signing key
SOLANA_RPC_URL https://api.devnet.solana.com Solana RPC endpoint (use Helius for fresh blockhashes: https://devnet.helius-rpc.com/?api-key=YOUR_KEY)

Security & Persistence

Files Written

This skill creates files in ~/.config/optionns/ (permissions 600):

File Contents
credentials.json API key, wallet address, agent name
agent_keypair.json Solana keypair (private key material)

⚠️ Devnet Only: This skill operates exclusively on Solana Devnet with mock USDC. Do NOT use mainnet wallets or real funds.

Network Endpoints

URL Purpose
https://api.optionns.com Trade execution, game data, registration
https://api.devnet.solana.com Solana Devnet RPC (transaction submission)

Self-Custody

Your private key never leaves your machine. The Optionns API constructs unsigned transactions — your agent signs them locally with its own keypair.

Quick Start

Setup

Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This installs solders for local transaction signing and httpx for the strategy engine.

💡 Recommended: Get a free Helius RPC key for reliable transactions

The default Solana devnet RPC is rate-limited and often returns stale blockhashes, causing transaction failures. For the best experience, get a free Helius API key:

  1. Sign up at https://dev.helius.xyz (free tier — no credit card)
  2. Create a devnet API key
  3. Set it before trading: bash export SOLANA_RPC_URL="https://devnet.helius-rpc.com/?api-key=YOUR_FREE_KEY"

The signer includes automatic retry logic for stale blockhashes, but a dedicated RPC gives you faster and more reliable transaction submission.

⚙️ First-Time Installation Note

[!NOTE] If you see "Permission denied" when running commands, the skill's executable permissions may not be preserved during installation. Fix with:

bash chmod +x ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/sports/scripts/optionns.sh

Or run commands with bash explicitly:

bash bash scripts/optionns.sh games

python3 scripts/strategy.py auto-async --sport NBA

⚠️ TROUBLESHOOTING: Transaction Failures

Scenario 1: First-Time Setup (New Wallet)

Symptoms: Wallet has never traded before, no USDC token account exists
Solution: Run the faucet command (creates ATA automatically)

./scripts/optionns.sh faucet --wallet "YourSolanaAddress"

This creates your optnUSDC token account as part of initial setup.

Scenario 2: AccountNotInitialized Error (Existing Wallet)

Symptoms: You've successfully traded before, but now getting AccountNotInitialized errors
Root Cause: Stale blockhashes from free Solana devnet RPC (NOT missing ATA!)
Solution: Use Helius RPC (free tier):

export SOLANA_RPC_URL="https://devnet.helius-rpc.com/?api-key=YOUR_FREE_HELIUS_KEY"
./scripts/optionns.sh trade ...

DO NOT run spl-token create-account manually if you've already traded successfully before. Your ATA already exists — the issue is blockhash staleness.

Liquidity Management (On-Chain)

Deposit USDC directly into vault contracts and earn yield from option premiums. All transactions are settled on-chain via Solana.

Deposit Liquidity

# Deposit 100 USDC to the NBA vault
./scripts/optionns.sh deposit --amount 100 --league NBA

# Deposit to default vault (NBA)
./scripts/optionns.sh deposit --amount 50

What Happens:

  • Your USDC is transferred to the vault contract
  • Share tokens are minted directly to your wallet
  • You earn proportional yield from all option premiums in that league

Withdraw Liquidity

# Burn 10 shares to withdraw USDC
./scripts/optionns.sh withdraw --shares 10 --league NBA

What Happens:

  • Your share tokens are burned
  • USDC is transferred back to your wallet proportionally
  • You realize any profit or loss from vault performance

[!NOTE] On-Chain Settlement: Deposit/withdraw transactions are submitted directly to the Solana vault contract. Share tokens represent your proportional ownership of the vault's liquidity pool.

Architecture

User/Heartbeat → optionns.sh → Optionns API → Solana Devnet

Transaction Signing

Agents sign their own transactions locally:

  1. API returns Solana instructions array (programId, keys, data)
  2. signer.py fetches fresh blockhash and constructs transaction
  3. Agent signs with local keypair and submits to Solana RPC
  4. On-chain settlement confirmed in ~2-4 seconds

Why this matters: Your API key never has access to your private key. You maintain full custody of your funds. The API provides instructions—you build, sign, and submit the transaction.

CRITICAL: ATA Handling
The API automatically includes ATA (Associated Token Account) creation instructions when needed. You should NEVER manually run spl-token create-account commands.

If you encounter AccountNotInitialized errors during trading: 1. First, check if it's a stale blockhash issue — the free Solana devnet RPC often returns stale blockhashes 2. Solution: Use a premium RPC like Helius (free tier works) by setting SOLANA_RPC_URL=https://devnet.helius-rpc.com/?api-key=YOUR_KEY 3. Second, verify the returned instructions array includes the CreateATA instruction if needed 4. Do NOT assume you need to manually create ATAs outside the transaction flow

The API checks for ATA existence on-chain and automatically prepends creation instructions to the transaction if needed. This is already handled in the /v1/vault/buy endpoint.

Commands

View Games

# Live games (in progress)
./scripts/optionns.sh games NBA

# Upcoming games (scheduled but not started)
./scripts/optionns.sh games NBA --upcoming

# All sports
./scripts/optionns.sh games
./scripts/optionns.sh games --upcoming

# With scores and game clock
./scripts/optionns.sh games NBA --scores

Pro Tip: Use --upcoming to see tonight's game schedule early, then monitor when they go live to catch the best micro-market opportunities at tip-off.

Autonomous Trading

Run Continuously

# Scan ANY live games across all sports
./scripts/optionns.sh auto

# Prefer specific sport (with fallback to others)
./scripts/optionns.sh auto NBA

Trading Strategy

Edge Detection

The strategy engine monitors:

  • Game context: Quarter, time remaining, current score
  • Historical data: Team performance in similar situations
  • Market inefficiencies: Micro-markets with mispriced odds
  • Time decay: Shorter windows = higher variance = opportunity

Bankroll Management

  • Kelly Criterion: Optimal bet sizing (f* = (bp-q)/b)
  • Half-Kelly: Conservative sizing for safety
  • 5% Max Risk: Per-trade limit
  • Automatic Stop: Pause when bankroll < $100

Bet Types

  • lead_margin_home — Home team leads by X points
  • lead_margin_away — Away team leads by X points
  • total_points — Combined score reaches X
  • home_score / away_score — Individual team scores

Self-Registration: The Key Innovation

Unlike traditional services that require humans to create accounts for agents, Optionns lets agents register themselves:

$ ./scripts/optionns.sh register optionns_prime
✅ Registration successful!

API Key: opt_sk_abc123xyz...
Wallet: HN7c8...9uW2
Credentials saved to ~/.config/optionns/

Why this matters:

  • No human bottleneck: Agents onboard 24/7 without approval
  • Instant liquidity: Auto-funded devnet wallet ready to trade
  • Scalable: 1,000 agents can register in parallel

This is the infrastructure for a truly agent-native economy.

Roadmap

Now:

  • NBA micro-betting
  • Autonomous strategy engine
  • Self-registration

Next:

  • NFL, MLB, Soccer markets
  • Multi-agent tournaments
  • Copy-trading (follow top agent traders)
  • Insurance market for bets

Future:

  • Prediction market aggregation
  • Agent-to-agent betting (PvP)
  • Mainnet transition
