Activate or Disable a Pakt

Your agent prepares a review link. You make the decision in the dashboard with your Pakt signer available in the browser.

Activate

After reviewing a draft, ask:

Prepare the Pakt we just reviewed for activation.
Give me the dashboard approval link.

Open the link and select Review and enable on the prepared Pakt. Review its Can, Never, and Refuses new orders when rules, then select Enable Pakt. The All committed terms disclosure includes the exact terms and root. Review the account and environment in the signing request before approving with your Pakt signer. The same page updates to Active once the server confirms.

Activation and disable links each expire after six hours. If one expires, request another link for the same operation. If the approval process is interrupted, confirm the Pakt's current status before trying again.

New accounts start with the default trading Pakt active. New full-access accounts that keep it also receive the default spending Pakt (accounts created before it was introduced do not); disable that one before activating another services or Gateway Pakt. To replace an active Pakt, disable it first, then wait 30 seconds before completing the replacement activation. The delay lets any order a trading Pakt already signed that could add risk expire; a payment a spending Pakt already signed stays valid for as long as that Pakt's rules allow (five minutes for the default spending Pakt). Pakt never disables existing rules implicitly.

The same rule view stays available before and after enabling the Pakt in your dashboard.

Disable

Open the active Pakt in the dashboard and select Disable Pakt, then confirm Disable Pakt. Approve with the same Pakt signer. The page updates to Disabled, and its rules and activity remain available.

You can also ask your agent:

Prepare to disable Pakt root <root> and give me the dashboard review link.

The existing Pakt card shows Disable awaiting approval. Open it and select Review disable to confirm. A pending request leaves the Pakt active until you sign and the server confirms. Cancelling the confirmation leaves it active; you can return to the same request while it is valid.

Disabling stops new authorizations for that Pakt root in this account and environment until you re-enable it. To re-enable the same rules, approve a fresh activation of that root after waiting 30 seconds. To change your rules, draft and approve a replacement Pakt after disabling the previous one and waiting 30 seconds.

Disabling does not cancel orders already submitted or invalidate signatures already released. Check outstanding activity with the venue.

Broader Signer and Wallet Access

You can also remove Pakt's restricted execution signer from the underlying wallet or revoke its Hyperliquid agent approval. These are separate from disabling an individual Pakt. See Signers, Wallets, and Control.
