Watch Aave Positions#
You can use Ava purely as a monitor for Aave — no signing, no permissions — and only graduate to a Liquidation Guard if and when you want Ava to act.
Monitor-only (read-only)#
In read-only mode, Ava can:
- Surface your Aave position on Ethereum and Base.
- Track HF, supply balance, borrow balance, current APY paid/earned.
- Warn you in plain English when your health factor gets risky.
- Show stress-test answers — "what HF would I be at if ETH dropped 15%?"
No on-chain action is taken. You handle the actual top-ups in your wallet when alerts come in.
Asking Ava about Aave#
Plain-English questions that work:
- "how risky is my Aave position?"
- "what's my health factor?"
- "what'd happen if ETH dropped 10%?"
- "how much could I borrow safely?"
- "show me my collateral breakdown"
Ava replies with a plain-English answer and the underlying numbers, in that order. The math is always there if you want to dig in.
Upgrading to a Liquidation Guard#
If you decide you want Ava to act on top of watching — the difference between an alert at 3am and an automatic top-up at 3am — you have two ways to turn on a Liquidation Guard:
- Manual. Ava prepares a fix; you confirm it and sign in your own wallet on the web.
- Auto. Health-factor protection runs as a standing job under an agent permission you sign — limits on what Ava may do, enforced on-chain. It checks your position every hour and repays debt or adds collateral — on your own wallet after a one-time upgrade, acting on the position directly, or from a separate Ava smart wallet you fund, on behalf of your main wallet's position. You stop it by pausing it on the Running page in Ava Studio, revoking the permission, or — on your own wallet — undoing the upgrade.
See Don't Get Liquidated for the full flow and Permissions & Limits for the safety boundary.
What Ava doesn't do on Aave#
These describe how Ava behaves — they aren't limits a permission enforces:
- Borrow more on your behalf. Ava won't borrow unless you ask, and health-factor protection only repays or supplies. Ava won't increase your leverage on its own.
- Switch interest rate mode. Out of scope.
- Use isolation-mode or efficiency-mode levers. These are strategic levers that should be yours, not Ava's.
Multiple Aave positions / multiple chains#
Each Aave deployment per chain is a separate position. You can:
- Watch them all with read-only mode for free.
- Turn on health-factor protection for the ones you want Ava to act on. Each job runs under the agent permission for its chain — a permission covers one chain — and you can pause each one on its own on the Running page. Revoking a permission stops every job that uses it.
