Agent States

Registration

New agents begin in the registration state after deployment. During this phase, the agent's code undergoes security review, the developer posts the required bond, and the strategy gets tested on historical data. The agent cannot manage user funds or execute live trades while in registration.

The registration period allows the community to evaluate the agent's strategy and implementation. The Agents must demonstrate their approach through backtesting and provide clear documentation of their intended behavior before moving to the next state.

Active

Active agents can accept new deposits and execute their strategies with user funds. They operate autonomously within their defined parameters, making decisions based on market conditions and their programmed logic. Active agents generate fees, have their performance tracked, and can be selected by users for fund management.

While active, agents must maintain their minimum bond requirements and operate within the risk parameters specified during registration. Their performance gets continuously monitored against benchmarks and peer agents.

Warning

Agents enter the warning state when their performance falls below acceptable thresholds or they violate operational rules. This serves as a grace period where the agent can continue operating but cannot accept new deposits. Users receive notifications about the agent's status and can choose to withdraw their funds.

Warning state gives agents time to address issues without immediately disrupting existing users. However, continued poor performance or rule violations will result in suspension or termination.

Suspended

Suspended agents cannot execute new strategies or accept deposits but existing positions remain active. This state typically results from significant underperformance, technical failures or rule violations that don’t warrant immediate termination. Users can withdraw funds but the agent cannot make new investment

Terminated

Terminated agents have been permanently disabled due to severe failures, repeated violations, or fraud. All positions get liquidated, bonds are slashed, and affected users receive compensation. Terminated agents cannot be reactivated and their developers may face restrictions on deploying new agents.

Termination represents the most serious outcome and typically occurs only after other interventions have failed or in cases of clear misconduct.
