49ca7d3fd6 docs: CRITICAL - integration reality check reveals fundamental issues
Deep analysis uncovered "unknown unknowns" that surface API coverage missed:

CRITICAL ISSUES:
1. Token ID truncated to 8 chars in LLM prompt (src/agent/llm.py:182)
   - LLM cannot know full token_id, orders will fail on Polymarket

2. Web UI trading is COMMENTED OUT (src/web/app.py:301-302)
   - "Start Trading" sets state but runs no actual trading code

3. Multi-agent coordinator has CORRECT token_id handling
   - But it's not wired to CLI or web UI - sophisticated but unused

4. Silent error handling masks all failures
   - Orders fail, get logged to console, execution continues

5. Zero integration tests against actual Polymarket API

ROOT CAUSE: This appears to be an incomplete prototype, not production code.

RECOMMENDATION: Do NOT attempt live trading until unified and tested.

a605c1e984 docs: add comprehensive Polymarket API integration analysis
Deep research comparing Alpha Arena with Polymarket's official
agent framework and API ecosystem:

- Gamma API: 30% coverage (missing events, tags, search)
- CLOB API: 70% coverage (good via py-clob-client)
- Data API: 40% coverage (missing leaderboards, P&L timeseries)
- WebSocket: 0% coverage (CRITICAL GAP)

Key findings:
- WebSocket integration is the biggest opportunity
- Alpha Arena has unique strengths (multi-agent, backtesting, resilience)
- Official polymarket-apis package could simplify integration
- Recommended 5-week implementation roadmap included
