New Surfaces That Still Are Not the 5m Core

Parts 2 and 3 were the floor: TWAP60 pinning and 150ms / rate-tier execution.

Part 4 is the noise around that floor. Late September still has new surfaces. Most of them should stay out of a BTC 5-minute engine.

1. The Core Did Not Expand

The live @abrownfox001 job is still one market:

BTC
5-minute
60s Chainlink TWAP vs open
45–55¢
scratch or redeem

Everything else is either:

hygiene that helps that loop, or
a different product that needs a different repo

Confusing those two is how 5m bots die after a platform month.

2. Hygiene vs Product FOMO

Surface	Use in a 5m engine	Not a use
RTDS 60s TWAP	live official path	optional decoration
Gamma slugs	discover `btc-updown-5m-*`	trade every new category
Data API	reconcile positions / verify wallet	substitute for a signal
CLOB v2 + Retry-After	place/cancel with quotas	cancel-spam strategy
Combos / RFQ	separate adapter, if ever	drop-in 5m trigger
Exa Connect / agents	optional client	production brain
Perps / passkeys / mobile UX	ignore	“new alpha”
Builder pitch days / grants	distribution	proof the model works

If it does not change twap_open, P(up), fill quality, or risk caps, it is not this week’s core.

3. Combos Are Still a Different Machine

Combos remain:

multi-leg
RFQ-priced
short quote windows
residual-leg risk
not a 5m CLOB

A TWAP path follower does not become a parlay engine by adding a legs array.

Reuse:

logger
kill switch
daily loss cap

Do not reuse:

5m scratch timers
45–55¢ BTC thresholds
signal.ts weights

If Combos get code later, it gets its own folder and its own budget.

4. Agent Connectors Are Clients

More agents can now route into Polymarket.

Expected side effects, not expected edge:

more naive “BTC green → buy Up” flow
more sloppy polling
more pressure on rate tiers
more copy-trading of public wallets

An agent should call the engine.

The engine should not become the agent.

Keep human risk caps. Keep dry-run defaults. Keep the private read off public wrappers.

5. APIs That Belong, Quietly

These are worth maintaining because they protect the 5m loop:

RTDS freshness
Gamma discovery
Data API position checks
pagination / 503 handling
reconnect without double-sends

September already showed brief open-order and websocket lag.

Hygiene is the response. A new strategy is not.

6. The Boundary I Want in Code

Risk + logger
  ├─ 5m BTC adapter      production
  ├─ verify/data adapter always
  └─ Combos/agent extras research only

engine.ts stays a slot lifecycle.

It does not become a platform SDK.

7. How to Catch Roadmap Drift

You are drifting if the next commit is:

a Combo RFQ client before post-delay fill logs exist
a new asset before 60s pinning is hard-failed
an agent auto-trader before per-slot caps
a dashboard for 12 categories and no resolution_src field

Public fills should still show BTC 5m mid-band behavior.

If the activity tab turns into sports parlays, the series is describing a different account.

8. What Part 5 Covers

The last post is the late-September operating checklist:

what must stay green every slot
what I will retune
what I will not ship
how to keep reading @abrownfox001 from the outside after the patch window
