DFlow Kalshi Market Scanner

Find Kalshi markets that match a criterion. This skill is a set of named scans (filter-and-rank recipes) over the DFlow Metadata API.

Prerequisites

• DFlow docs MCP (https://pond.dflow.net/mcp) — install per the repo README. This skill is the recipe; the MCP is the reference. Look up exact query params, pagination, response shapes, and anything else field-level via search_d_flow / query_docs_filesystem_d_flow — don't guess.

Surface

All scans here run against the Metadata API (https://pond.dflow.net/build/metadata-api) — REST for point-in-time queries, WebSockets for continuous streams. You can call both from anywhere: a quick curl from the command line, a Node/Python script, a cron job, a backend service, or a Next.js route proxying a browser UI.

If the user says "run this from my terminal", don't reach for the dflow CLI — it has no discovery subcommands. Write a short HTTP/WS script that hits the Metadata API instead.

The scanner skeleton

Every scan is the same four steps. Build around this pattern — don't reinvent it per scan:

1. Enumerate the universe — GET /api/v1/markets (flat) or GET /api/v1/events?withNestedMarkets=true (grouped). Filter to status=active. Page through until done (see the pagination gotcha for the { markets, cursor } shape). Pass isInitialized=true only if the user wants markets tradable on DFlow right now (see Gotchas).
