Cron Setup

Add to crontab:

# Daily at 06:00 UTC
0 6 * * * /home/himalaya/clawd/PolymarketDocumentation/daily-sync.sh >> /home/himalaya/clawd/PolymarketDocumentation/sync.log 2>&1

Or use OpenClaw cron:

openclaw cron add --schedule "0 6 * * *" --payload "systemEvent" --text "Run Polymarket docs daily sync" --sessionTarget "main"

Log File

Logs are written to: sync.log

Manual Run

To run manually:

cd /home/himalaya/clawd/PolymarketDocumentation

Notes

The scrape script fetches all URLs listed in TARGET.md
Only commits if there are actual changes
Skips commit if docs haven't changed
Safe to run multiple times per day if needed
