It handles two-tier authentication: L1 wallet signing (EIP-712) to derive API credentials, and L2 HMAC signing for subsequent order operations. The library wraps Polymarket's REST API with native support for limit orders (GTC), market orders (FOK/FAK), and account queries.\n\nThe package is built on eth-account, eth-abi, eth-utils, and httpx for blockchain interaction and HTTP communication. It's actively maintained (last commit 2026-08-05) and requires Python >=3.9.10. The maintainers note that a unified SDK (py-sdk) now combines REST and WebSocket APIs, suggesting this package may be superseded for new projects, though it remains functional for CLOB-specific workflows.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are actively trading on Polymarket's CLOB and need a Python REST client. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and provides the core order-placement and authentication layer. However, note the maintainers' recommendation to use py-sdk for new projects\u2014evaluate whether you need CLOB-specific functionality or would benefit from the unified SDK's broader API coverage and WebSocket support."},"id":"py-clob-client-v2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/py-clob-client-v2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/py-clob-client-v2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/py-clob-client-v2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"py-clob-client-v2","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python client for the Polymarket CLOBV2"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":708389,"position":5263,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
