Connect

Step 2 of 3 — connect trade-only so this platform can sit between you and the AI.

Spot · no custody · you elect

How to start

  1. Create your desk

    Email, password, 18 or older, not sanctioned. No exchange keys.

  2. Connect trade-only

    Name the key and the whitelist. Withdraw stays off. The secret is not saved here.

    Connect exchange
  3. Enroll in North Star

    Kent emails the Adobe PDF, or you record the election here. The engine then runs the published card. Not each fill.

Connect Coinbase

After this key tests, LumenBotFi can see this desk. North Star and the Floor pull it through the platform and deploy the card you elect. The venue secret stays on this computer.

  1. On Coinbase: Settings → API. Create a key. Turn View and Trade on. Leave Transfer / Withdraw off.
  2. Paste the API key and secret here. We send them only to this computer, then ask Coinbase if the key works.

That's it — two steps. No IP setup needed: leave Coinbase's IP allowlist empty and the key just works.

Optional — extra security: restrict the key to our IPs

If you want the key locked down, open IP allowlist on the Coinbase key and paste the lines below. Skipping this is fine — the key stays trade-only and can never withdraw either way.

The local executor must be running on this PC before a real key can be tested.
