Choose where Ava reaches you, turn monitoring on or off, and know what pausing, revoking and undoing the upgrade each stop.
Ava errs toward signal, not noise — but the right balance depends on you. Here's what you can control today.
Alert settings in Telegram (/alerts) are coming soon. Today, you tune notifications in Ava Studio (app.avaprotocol.org):
Settings (/settings) — turn Email, Discord, Telegram or Slack notifications on or off
Running (/run) — turn Ava Guardian monitoring on or off
If you use Auto mode, these controls stop different things. Every Auto action — one-off actions and standing jobs (health-factor protection, weekly pay, weekly swap, token claims) — runs under an agent permission you signed, on your own wallet after a one-time upgrade (same address, same keys) or from a separate Ava smart wallet you fund.
| Action | What it stops | What it leaves | When to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pause a job (Running page) | That standing job, until you resume it | Its agent permission, and anything else that uses it | Vacation, or you want one job to stop now |
| Disable a permission (Wallets → Edit permissions → Disable) | Every job and action that used that permission — Ava stops using it right away | Your other permissions. The permission stays installed until it's removed on-chain | You're done with a job, or want to change what Ava may do |
| Undo the upgrade (your own wallet) | Everything Ava can do on that wallet, on that network — it becomes a plain wallet again | Your wallet — same address, same keys | You want Auto off your own wallet entirely |
| Withdraw (separate Ava smart wallet) | What Auto can spend from that smart wallet — withdrawals always go back to your main wallet | Your jobs and permissions, still set up | You want your funds out of the smart wallet |
None of these are chat commands — chat can't pause jobs, turn off monitoring, or revoke agent permissions; Ava points you to the web. Disabling a permission then asks your wallet to remove it on-chain — a normal transaction, so you pay gas. If that fails, or the permission is on another chain, use Finish on-chain removal. Undoing the upgrade is one transaction from your wallet. See Revoking Access.
In an emergency: disable the permission on Wallets — Ava stops using it right away — or undo your wallet's upgrade to stop Auto on it.
You chat with Ava in Telegram. On the Settings page (/settings) in Ava Studio, you can turn each notification channel on or off: Email, Discord, Telegram and Slack. Health-factor protection summaries arrive by email.
