Authentication

This server uses RSA-PSS signature authentication:

  1. Each request is signed with your private key
  2. Kalshi verifies the signature with your public key
  3. Thread-safe rate limiting (150ms between requests)
  4. Automatic retry on 429 rate limit errors

Security: Your private key never leaves your machine. The server only signs requests locally.

Rate Limiting

  • Built-in 150ms spacing between requests (~6.6 req/s)
  • Automatic exponential backoff on 429 errors (0.5s → 1s → 2s)
  • Safe for concurrent use across multiple Claude conversations

Architecture

Built on production code from a live Kalshi trading bot:

  • Authentication: Reused from kalshi_client.py (4+ months uptime)
  • Rate limiting: Shared across all client instances
  • Error handling: Battle-tested retry logic
  • Market discovery: Liquidity scoring from scanner.py
