## Background
Hyperliquid official documentation recommends using Agent Wallet pattern for API trading:
- Agent Wallet is used for signing only
- Main Wallet Address is used for querying account data
- Agent Wallet should not hold significant funds
Reference: https://hyperliquid.gitbook.io/hyperliquid-docs/for-developers/api/nonces-and-api-wallets
## Current Implementation
Current implementation allows auto-generating wallet address from private key,
which simplifies user configuration but may lead to potential security concerns
if users accidentally use their main wallet private key.
## Enhancement
Following the proven pattern already used in Aster exchange implementation
(which uses dual-address mode), this enhancement upgrades Hyperliquid to
Agent Wallet mode:
### Core Changes
1. **Mandatory dual-address configuration**
- Agent Private Key (for signing)
- Main Wallet Address (holds funds)
2. **Multi-layer security checks**
- Detect if user accidentally uses main wallet private key
- Validate Agent wallet balance (reject if > 100 USDC)
- Provide detailed configuration guidance
3. **Design consistency**
- Align with Aster's dual-address pattern
- Follow Hyperliquid official best practices
### Code Changes
**config/database.go**:
- Add inline comments clarifying Agent Wallet security model
**trader/hyperliquid_trader.go**:
- Require explicit main wallet address (no auto-generation)
- Check if agent address matches main wallet address (security risk indicator)
- Query agent wallet balance and block if excessive
- Display both agent and main wallet addresses for transparency
**web/src/components/AITradersPage.tsx**:
- Add security alert banner explaining Agent Wallet mode
- Separate required inputs for Agent Private Key and Main Wallet Address
- Add field descriptions and validation
### Benefits
- ✅ Aligns with Hyperliquid official security recommendations
- ✅ Maintains design consistency with Aster implementation
- ✅ Multi-layer protection against configuration mistakes
- ✅ Detailed logging for troubleshooting
### Breaking Change
Users must now explicitly provide main wallet address (hyperliquid_wallet_addr).
Old configurations will receive clear error messages with migration guidance.
### Migration Guide
**Before** (single private key):
```json
{
"hyperliquid_private_key": "0x..."
}
```
**After** (Agent Wallet mode):
```json
{
"hyperliquid_private_key": "0x...", // Agent Wallet private key
"hyperliquid_wallet_addr": "0x..." // Main Wallet address
}
```
Users can create Agent Wallet on Hyperliquid official website:
