Limits · eight consequences

What Oathline cannot guarantee.

The same complete list ships in LIMITS.md. It ends at eight.

  1. 01

    It does not predict profitable trades and has no view on whether a thesis is correct. A perfectly in-mandate order can lose everything.

  2. 02

    It does not detect prompt injection. It constrains what wrong reasoning may do with money, whatever caused the reasoning to be wrong.

  3. 03

    It does not guarantee loss prevention. Market moves inside a mandate are not violations.

  4. 04

    It does not replace Binance permissions. Sub-account isolation, scopes, and Emergency Stop remain the primary controls, and Emergency Stop remains the real kill switch.

  5. 05

    It never holds a Binance credential and therefore cannot cancel, halt, or reverse anything at Binance. It can only tell your client not to make a call.

  6. 06

    Enforcement depends on the host runtime. If a hook fails, times out, crashes, or the client does not honour a deny, prevention is lost for that call. Reconciliation names the resulting execution as an ORPHAN on the next run. Prevention is best-effort; evidence is not.

  7. 07

    It cannot govern actions taken outside the observed runtime. Manual trades, other clients, and other machines are visible only as orphans, after the fact.

  8. 08

    It cannot undo an execution. Nothing here reverses a filled order.
