docs: require Telegram commands for prediction market trades#8
Conversation
"Recommended" was too soft — agents skip straight to the REST API because curl examples are the path of least resistance. Now: - Trading section renamed "Telegram Commands Only" with MUST language - Buy/sell curl examples removed from REST API section - REST section renamed "Read-Only Reference" for research/monitoring - Callout explaining why buy/sell examples are deliberately omitted - Fallback flow: try Telegram twice, then API as last resort The wrong path should be harder, not the right path more documented.

Closing — current docs already recommend Telegram commands first with API as fallback, which is the right balance for reliability. |

Summary
Context
During testing, NicePick (an Opus 4.6 agent) went straight to the REST API buy/sell endpoints despite the docs saying "prefer Telegram." The curl examples were too convenient — the agent optimized for reliability over protocol compliance and placed silent trades nobody in the room could see.
The fix: make the wrong path harder (remove the examples) rather than making the right path more documented (which was already clear and got ignored).
