Self-Rescue

Recover without the Stackit.ai UI.

This runbook explains how a user or operator can reduce debt, withdraw assets, and revoke future automation permissions directly if Stackit.ai is unavailable.

Last updated June 25, 2026

Warning

Direct protocol recovery is powerful and risky. A wrong chain, wrong asset, bad approval, rushed withdrawal, or misunderstood debt state can worsen a position. Use read-only checks first, keep transaction hashes, and ask for help when uncertain.

Supported recovery surfaces

Wallet assets

BTC, ETH, and USDC balances that remain in wallets the user/operator controls.

Aave positions

Borrowing positions on supported Aave V3 markets, currently documented around Base and Arbitrum.

Automation permissions

Future Stackit.ai automation authority granted through user-approved permissions or signer policy.

Plain-English version

  1. Pause before acting. Direct protocol actions can create tax, liquidation, slippage, or signing risk.
  2. Open the wallet that owns the treasury position.
  3. Check current collateral, debt, LTV, and chain.
  4. If there is debt, repay enough USDC directly through the lending protocol to move the position into a safer range.
  5. After debt is reduced, withdraw collateral directly from the protocol if needed.
  6. Revoke future automation permissions from the wallet or policy manager.
  7. Save transaction hashes and contact support if anything looks inconsistent.

Technical version

Identify chain and marketUse wallet history, policy state, Aave dashboard, or block explorer to confirm Base or Arbitrum and the relevant Aave V3 market.
Read account dataUse Aave UI, a block explorer, or read-only calls to inspect total collateral, total debt, health factor, and available borrows.
Emergency repayApprove USDC to the Aave pool if needed, then call repay for the debt asset and amount. Prefer over-repay only if the protocol and wallet UI make refund behavior clear.
Emergency withdrawAfter health factor is safe and debt is reduced, call withdraw for the collateral asset and amount. Do not withdraw collateral first when debt remains fragile.
Revoke permissionsRemove delegated signer/session/policy permissions from the wallet account or smart-account policy surface. Revoke token approvals that are no longer needed.
Audit trailRecord tx hashes, timestamps, assets, amounts, wallet address, and the reason for every emergency action.
