WHAT IT DOES

What traders.discover does on Polymarket Agent Mcp

AI agents call traders.discover to retrieve information from Polymarket Agent Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why traders.discover is rated Low

The primary action is fetching/reading leaderboard data. However, the 'auto_watch' parameter can add traders to a watchlist (a Write side effect). Since the core function is data retrieval and the write side effect is minor/reversible, Read is appropriate, but severity is elevated slightly due to the potential watchlist modification.

From the tool's definition Fetch top traders from the Polymarket leaderboard ranked by PnL, volume, and ROI... Returns trader address, PnL, volume, and win rate.
