Usage¶
Live Help¶
Sell shares on a prediction market outcome
Usage: bullpen polymarket sell [OPTIONS] <MARKET_SLUG> <OUTCOME> [SHARES]
Arguments:
<MARKET_SLUG>
Market slug
<OUTCOME>
Outcome name
[SHARES]
Number of shares to sell (e.g., "50" or "12.5"; NOT USD)
Options:
--max
Sell the maximum CLOB-accepted two-decimal share amount for this outcome. Sub-0.01 residual shares may remain as unsellable dust
--output <OUTPUT>
Output format for command results
[possible values: table, json]
--env <ENV>
Target environment to connect to (overrides config.toml)
[env: BULLPEN_ENV=]
[possible values: staging, production]
--yes
Skip confirmation
--config <CONFIG>
Path to a custom config.toml file (overrides $BULLPEN_CONFIG and the default location).
Explicit --config and BULLPEN_CONFIG paths fail closed: if the file is missing, the CLI exits validation instead of silently loading defaults. Credentials still resolve via BULLPEN_HOME, so set BULLPEN_HOME too when isolating a session.
--preview
Show order preview without executing
--min-price <MIN_PRICE>
Minimum acceptable fill price — reject if fill would be below this price
--auto-wrap
Accepted for compatibility; no-op on sells (no collateral consumed)
--wallet <WALLET>
Pin the signer to a specific owner EOA (0x…). Does not override the server-selected Safe/Proxy/Deposit Wallet or bypass 1151 safety checks. Use in bot automation to avoid wallet-select races
--read-only
Enable read-only mode: blocks all mutating commands
--non-interactive
Suppress interactive prompts; does NOT imply --yes for money-moving commands
[env: BULLPEN_NON_INTERACTIVE=]
-h, --help
Print help (see a summary with '-h')

Example Commands¶
JSON Output¶
Contract: JSON Output Contract.
This command supports --output json, but this generated reference page intentionally does not include a synthetic success schema or example.
Use the live command in your target environment to inspect command-specific success fields. Error output follows the shared JSON output contract linked above.
Error Envelope¶
When a Polymarket CLOB or gasless-relayer rejection coincides with a degraded Polymarket status page, the error envelope may include a polymarket_status object:
{
"polymarket_status": {
"page_status": "HASISSUES",
"status_url": "https://status.polymarket.com",
"affected_components": [
{"name": "CLOB API", "status": "PARTIALOUTAGE"}
],
"advisory": "Polymarket is experiencing issues; this rejection is most likely a Polymarket-side outage."
}
}
The field is omitted on local validation/auth/balance errors and when the status-page fetch times out or reports healthy relevant components.
Schema version: 1 when a command emits schema_version; otherwise treat the current command shape as contract version 1.
Stability¶
Patch releases may add nullable or optional fields. Minor releases may add required fields or increment schema_version. Major releases may remove or rename fields.
