⏯️ Manual Pause/Resume Agent Functionality

Manual Pause Resume

Maintain Ultimate Control Over Your AI Agent

While DeFiMatrix's AI agents are designed to operate autonomously, we believe users should always maintain ultimate control. The Manual Pause/Resume functionality gives you the ability to immediately halt or restart your agent's activities at any time, ensuring you remain in command of your financial strategy.

How Manual Pause/Resume Works

1. Instant Agent Pausing

With a single action, you can:

  • Immediately stop all pending agent operations
  • Prevent new actions from being initiated
  • Maintain existing positions without changes
  • Halt automated compounding and rebalancing
  • Keep your strategy and settings intact for later resumption

2. Selective Pausing Options

Choose the scope of your pause:

  • Pause all agent activities
  • Pause only specific types of operations (e.g., only rebalancing)
  • Pause activities for specific assets or protocols
  • Set timed pauses with automatic resumption
  • Apply emergency pause for immediate position exit (when needed)

3. Seamless Resumption

When you're ready to continue:

  • Resume all agent activities with a single click
  • Optionally review and confirm the next planned actions
  • Receive a summary of market changes during the pause
  • Get recommendations for strategy adjustments if conditions changed
  • Continue with your original strategy or implement modifications

4. Scheduled Pause/Resume

For planned periods of manual control:

  • Schedule future pause events
  • Set automatic resumption times
  • Create recurring pause schedules
  • Receive notifications before scheduled events
  • Cancel scheduled pauses at any time
