Hyperdaily guide

Hyperliquid agent wallets explained

An agent wallet is not custody, but it is still permission. Treat it like a trading key: preview it, cap it, record it, and keep revoke visible.

What approveAgent signs

The action registers an agent address and agent name for the master account.

What an agent cannot do

API wallets cannot withdraw user funds from Hyperliquid. That does not make unlimited trading safe.

How Hyperdaily frames it

The product shows the preview, caps, kill switch, signature request, record, and revoke path in one flow.

FAQ

Is approveAgent the same as sharing a private key?

No. It is a protocol permission for an API wallet, signed by the user wallet.

Why keep caps local?

Caps are part of the product risk system and executor policy; they make the permission understandable to the user.
