Tools (13)
Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].
amend_orderAmend the price and/or maximum fillable quantity of an existing live or paper order.
arm_live_tradingArm or disarm this kernel process for live order placement. Kernel-local control with no exchange side effects; paper mode is unaffected and paper trading never requires arming. Requires repeating the exact startup acknowledgement phrase as a deliberate second act; config alone never authorizes trading.
cancel_orderCancel the remaining quantity of one live or paper order.
get_candlesGet OHLC candlesticks for one event-contract or perpetual market over a time window. Prices are fixed-point strings; synthetic buckets may have null OHLC.
get_lastGet a compact live pricing snapshot for one event-contract or perpetual market - last/mark price, best bid and ask, 24h volume, and status. Prices stay fixed-point strings.
get_marketGet the authoritative metadata and current status for one event-contract or perpetual market.
get_orderbookGet the locally reconciled order book for one market, including freshness and sequence metadata.
get_portfolioReturn balances, positions, resting orders, and recent fills from the selected live or paper ledger.
get_tradesGet one page of the public trade tape for an event-contract market, filtered by time window. Prices and sizes stay fixed-point strings.
get_weather_indexRead the Kalshi-computed city temperature index - the canonical minute-resolution Fahrenheit series behind hourly temperature markets. Minutes where the index quorum has not yet settled are returned as points with status incomplete that omit the canonical value and contributor count; minutes where quorum failed carry no point at all. Values stay fixed-point strings.
kernel_statusReport the immutable execution mode, backend readiness, market-data freshness, and enabled capabilities. Call this before any trading operation.
place_orderValidate and place one order through the configured execution backend. In paper mode this can only affect the local simulated ledger.
search_marketsFind event-contract or perpetual markets using structured filters. Returns compact summaries suitable for choosing a ticker.
