Nothing Ever Happens Polymarket Bot

This bot implements the "nothing ever happens" meme as an actual Polymarket trading strategy: it scans for standalone yes/no markets, filters out sports, and buys "No" when the price is below your threshold. It's paper trading by default and requires you to explicitly set three separate environment variables to go live, which is honestly the right safety model for something that can lose real money. The codebase includes a dashboard, position recovery via Postgres, and helpful scripts for parsing Heroku logs and checking your wallet history. If you believe most dramatic predictions on Polymarket won't materialize, this automates that contrarian bet in a surprisingly well-structured way.
