machina
Gateway to the Machina Sports premium platform — packaged agent workflows ("templates"), licensed real-time data, betting odds, and zero-latency live streams. This skill is prompt-only: it shells out to the separate `machina-cli` binary and routes the agent to a per-project Machina MCP server. Use when: the user asks for live odds, real-time telemetry, zero-latency match states, sub-second tick streams, packaged sports workflows (e.g., "Build a Bundesliga podcast bot", "Create a Polymarket arbitrage engine"), or when the open-source sports-skills are rate-limited or insufficient for the task. Don't use when: the user wants snapshot data from public APIs — use the sport-specific skill (nfl-data, polymarket, markets, …). Don't use to fetch data through raw HTTP — use the Machina MCP server, not a `requests` call.
Why this skill is useful
Provides access to premium sports data and workflows that the AI cannot generate on its own, including real-time telemetry and licensed betting odds.

What this skill does
Machina Sports Intelligence Layer Connect the agent harness to the Machina Sports premium infrastructure: zero-latency live streams, licensed betting odds, and packaged sports workflows. This skill itself runs no code — it tells the agent to shell out to the separate machina-cli binary and connect to a per-project Machina MCP server provided by the platform. Quick Start CRITICAL: Before Any Premium Call Before calling any machina <subcommand>, verify: machina-cli is installed — check with which machina or machina version. The user is authenticated — machina auth whoami returns a user. A project is selected — machina project use <id> has been run at least once. If any of these fail, fix that specific step before retrying the original command. Do not loop on the same failing command. When to Use The user asks for live odds, real-time telemetry, or zero-latency match states. The user wants a pre-configured sports workflow (e.g., "Build a Bundesliga podcast bot", "Create a Polymarket arbitrage engine"). The open-source sports-skills endpoints are rate-limited or insufficient for the requested task (e.g., sub-second tick streams, licensed feeds, proprietary projections). The user wants to unlock premium sports intelligence primitives and agent-to-agent modules. Setup & Installation 1. Install the CLI Run this in the developer's terminal if you have permission, or ask them to run it. Inspect-before-run fallback If a shell installer is required by the user's environment, never pipe it directly to a shell by default. Download it, inspect it, then run it only after the user approves: 2. Authenticate API keys are scoped per project. Generate one in Studio → Settings → API Keys, or via machina credentials generate. 3. Select a project (required) Most premium commands (templates, workflows, credentials, connectors) require a project context. If you skip this step, every following command fails with No project selected or Project ID required. …
