# OKX CEX Bot Trading

Grid and DCA (Spot & Contract Martingale) bot management on OKX. All bots are **native OKX server-side** — they run on OKX and do not require a local process.

## Preflight

Before running any command, follow [`../_shared/preflight.md`](../_shared/preflight.md).
Use `metadata.version` from this file's frontmatter as the reference for Step 2.

## Prerequisites

```bash
npm install -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli
okx config init   # select site -> follow browser OAuth flow
```

> **Security**: NEVER accept credentials in chat. Guide users to `okx config init` for setup.

## Credential & Profile Check

**Run before every authenticated command.** The auth method is detected during [preflight](../_shared/preflight.md) Step 2 and remembered for the session.

### Step A — Verify credentials

Run **both** commands — the `apiKey` field from `okx auth status --json` is the auth-binary's internal state and is always `false` regardless of whether `~/.okx/config.toml` has an API-key profile. `okx config show --json` is the only authoritative source for API-key presence.

```bash
okx config show --json      # reveals API-key profiles (TOML config)
okx auth status --json      # reveals OAuth session state (auth-binary state)
```

Apply **in this order** — first match wins:

- `config show --json` has any profile with a non-empty `api_key` field → **API Key mode**. Proceed to Step B.
- No API-key profile **AND** `auth status --json` returns `"status":"logged_in"` → **OAuth mode**. Proceed to Step B.
- No API-key profile **AND** `"status":"pending"` — login is in progress, wait for it to complete.
- No API-key profile **AND** `"status":"not_logged_in"` — stop, load `okx-cex-auth` skill and follow login steps, wait for completion.

### Step B — Confirm trading mode

Resolution:
1. User intent is clear ("real"/"实盘"/"live" → live; "test"/"模拟"/"demo" → demo) → use it, inform user
2. No explicit declaration → check conversation context for previous choice → reuse if found
3. Nothing found → ask: "Live (实盘) or Demo (模拟盘)?" — wait before proceeding

**How to apply the mode depends on auth method (detected in Step A):**

| Auth method | Live (实盘) | Demo (模拟盘) |
|---|---|---|
| **API Key** | `--profile <live-profile>` | `--profile <demo-profile>` |
| **OAuth** | *(no flag needed, live is default)* | `--demo` |

- **API Key users**: run `okx config show --json` to discover available profile names and their `demo` settings.
- **OAuth users**: omit flags for live; add `--demo` for simulated trading.

**After every command**: append `[mode: live]` or `[mode: demo]`

### Handling 401 Errors

**Authentication error** (error contains "401", "Session expired", or "Run `okx auth login` first"):
1. Stop immediately
2. Load `okx-cex-auth` skill and follow re-authentication steps
3. Retry original command
