# ── zero-code-trading-bot — bot instance env ──
# Copy to .env only if/when you wire live trading. PAPER mode needs NOTHING here.

# Safety switches (defaults are the safe values; the bot assumes these if unset)
LIVE=0            # 1 = attempt live orders (also requires the gates below)
SAFE_MODE=1       # 1 = safe_mode ON → live trading refused. Must be 0 to go live.

# Broker credentials — ONLY needed for live trading, never for paper.
# POLYMARKET_API_KEY=
# POLYMARKET_API_SECRET=
# KALSHI_API_KEY=
# KALSHI_PRIVATE_KEY=

# Going live is Steve-gated. Even with keys + LIVE=1 + SAFE_MODE=0, the executor
# also requires a data/LIVE_CONFIRMED token file AND a wired broker call.
# See references/safety-model.md before touching any of this.
