🎯 Sports Betting Claude

A Claude Project skill system that turns “what bet should I make today?” into a structured, data-driven answer.

---

What this is

A collection of skill files designed to be loaded into a Claude Project. Once set up, you can ask Claude a single question:

“What bet should I make today?”

And get a structured answer: sport, market, line, book, stake size in units, EV%, confidence tier, and reasoning — every time.

The system is built around five layers that mirror how professional bettors think:

Data Ingestion → Edge Detection → Bankroll Sizing → Sport Context → Output
