sf-prune

name	sf-prune
description	Find deployed StrategyFactory bots whose underlying strategy's edge is decaying, and optionally pause them. Use when the user asks "kill the dead bots / prune my portfolio / pause the losers / which of my bots are dying / clean up the bot roster". Writes state via PATCH only when --apply is passed.

sf-prune

Audit-and-clean for your deployed roster. For every ACTIVE bot, pulls the underlying strategy and runs the same edge-decay heuristic as sf-edge-watch. Bots whose strategies are decaying or dead are listed; with --apply they get paused via PATCH /bots/:id.

When to use

• "Prune the bot roster"
• "Pause anything that's dying"
• "Show me which of my bots have lost their edge"

How to run

# Dry run — lists candidates, never PATCHes
python sf-prune/prune.py [--include soft|decaying|dead] [--json]

# Actually pause flagged bots
python sf-prune/prune.py --apply [--include soft|decaying|dead]

Defaults: --include decaying,dead (soft = watch but don't touch).

Output

Table sorted worst-first: bot name, strategy, status, flags. With --apply, also prints PATCH result per bot.

Safety

• Without --apply, this is fully read-only.
• --apply PATCHes one bot per call. The shared client respects the server-side 10-second per-bot cooldown automatically.
• Only ACTIVE bots are considered. PAUSED/DRAFT/DISABLED are skipped.
• This skill does not delete bots — it only pauses them. To re-activate later, use PATCH /bots/:id with action: "reactivate".
