- The agent (MCP or CLI) operates an isolated sub-account provisioned by Eterna: it can trade, it cannot withdraw.
- Your master account keeps custody and funds the sub-account. Fund it only with what your strategy needs.
- CLI credentials live in
~/.eterna/credentials.json. Never commit this file or copy it into a repo, container image, or CI log. - Never paste API keys or OAuth tokens into prompts, issues, or chat logs.
- If a key may have leaked, revoke it and re-run
eterna login.
- Keep Claude's Needs Approval mode on until a strategy has proven itself under supervision.
- Put hard limits in your prompts: max % equity per trade, max leverage, mandatory stop loss.
- Log every execution; review fills and fees weekly.
Perpetual futures are leveraged instruments. You can lose more than a position's margin in fast markets. Nothing in this repository is financial advice; use at your own risk.
