kalshi-markets（卡尔希市场）

Kalshi Markets

Standalone, self-contained scripts for Kalshi prediction markets. Each script is independently executable with zero dependencies between scripts.

Instructions

• Default to --json flag for all commands when processing data
• Prioritize high volume markets, series, and events.
• IMPORTANT: Don't read scripts unless absolutely needed - instead, use <script.py> --help to understand options and then call the script with uv run <script.py> <options> to get the data you need.
• All scripts work from any directory (use absolute paths internally)

Progressive Disclosure

Each script contains ~200-300 lines with complete functionality. Only load the script you need - no unnecessary context.
