What does activate do?

The activate command sets the wallet address for an agent that was registered without one. You need a wallet address before the policy engine can validate transactions. 
npx @mandate.md/cli activate 0xYourWalletAddress

​
When to use it

If you ran login without --address, the agent has a zero address and cannot validate transactions. Call activate with the wallet address your agent will use to sign transactions.

​
Example

npx @mandate.md/cli activate 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678

​
Output

{
  "activated": true,
  "evmAddress": "0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678",
  "onboardingUrl": "https://app.mandate.md/onboarding/..."
}
The command updates ~/.mandate/credentials.json with the new address. All subsequent commands use this address automatically.
This command requires authentication. You must run login first to store a valid runtime key.
