PANIC FLATTEN

This is the kill switch. It closes every open position in the OpenTradex harness immediately, regardless of mode.

Confirmation required

Before you run the POST, ask the user one short confirmation in chat:

⚠️ PANIC will flatten all open positions at market. Type yes flatten to confirm.

Only proceed if their next message is literally yes flatten (case-insensitive).

Execute

curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:3210/api/panic --max-time 10 | jq .

Report

• Number of positions closed.
• Total realized P&L from the flatten.
• Halted state after (the gateway enforces a 10-second cooldown).

Why this exists

Every trader needs a single button they can hit when something's wrong — a stuck position, a news shock, a risk they didn't price in. This is that button. It is not a trading strategy.
