Update Polymarket Strategy Documentation

Synchronize strategy documentation with actual code implementation after changes.

When to Use

Call this skill after modifying:

• src/strategies/gabagool.py - Strategy logic
• src/client/polymarket.py - Order execution
• src/monitoring/order_book.py - Opportunity detection
• src/config.py - Strategy configuration
• Any file affecting the arbitrage/directional/near-resolution trading flow

Documentation Files to Update

Update Checklist

1. Verify Code Flow Diagram

Read the actual code path and compare to the diagram in docs/STRATEGY_ARCHITECTURE.md:

# Check opportunity detection flow
grep -n "on_opportunity\|_queue_opportunity\|_process_opportunities" src/strategies/gabagool.py

# Check order execution flow
grep -n "execute_dual_leg_order\|place_order_sync" src/client/polymarket.py

Update the ASCII diagram if the flow has changed:

Opportunity Detection → Queue → Execution → Persistence

2. Update Implementation Status

In docs/STRATEGY_ARCHITECTURE.md, update the Implementation Status section:

## Implementation Status

| Phase | Description | Status |
|-------|-------------|--------|
| 1 | Dynamic pricing with zero slippage | COMPLETE |
| 2 | Strategy-owned persistence | NOT STARTED |
...

Mark phases as:

• COMPLETE - Fully implemented and tested
• IN PROGRESS - Partially implemented
• NOT STARTED - Planned but not implemented

3. Check for Discrepancies

Compare docs/strategy-rules.md rules against actual code:

# Example: Check slippage policy
grep -n "slippage\|limit_price\|price_d" src/client/polymarket.py

# Example: Check position sizing
grep -n "num_pairs\|yes_amount\|no_amount" src/strategies/gabagool.py

Document any gaps in the Discrepancies section:

• IMPLEMENTED - Code matches documentation
• GAP - Documentation describes feature not yet implemented
• CRITICAL GAP - Implementation differs from documented behavior

4. Update Configuration Reference

If config options changed, update both files:

# Check actual config options
grep -n "GABAGOOL_" src/config.py

Update the Configuration Reference section in docs/strategy-rules.md.

5. Update Changelog

Add entry to docs/strategy-rules.md changelog:

## Change Log

| Date | Change |
|------|--------|
| YYYY-MM-DD | Description of what changed |

Example Update Session

After fixing a pricing bug:

# 1. Verify the fix in code
grep -n "limit_price\|price_d" src/client/polymarket.py

# 2. Update docs/STRATEGY_ARCHITECTURE.md
# - Update code flow diagram to show price passthrough
# - Mark Phase 1 as COMPLETE
# - Update discrepancies section

# 3. Update docs/strategy-rules.md
# - Update Risk Management > Slippage Protection
# - Add changelog entry for zero slippage policy

Verification

After updating documentation:

1. Re-read both docs files to ensure consistency
2. Verify ASCII diagrams match actual code paths
3. Check that all config options mentioned exist in src/config.py
4. Ensure changelog is in reverse chronological order
