Pause and resume

Pause is an admission control for new Liskov work. It does not force-stop an Acurast job, revoke a managed secret grant, drain an endpoint, or undo money already committed on chain.

Preview and pause​

In the Console, open Application settings and review the pause preview. With the CLI, omit --yes for the read-only response:

proof liskov application pause APPLICATION_ID \
  --reason "planned maintenance"

If the preview is correct:

proof liskov application pause APPLICATION_ID \
  --reason "planned maintenance" \
  --yes

The Application becomes Inactive for new planning. Existing jobs continue to their scheduled end and may continue logging or using already delivered configuration.

Resume​

Review resume without --yes, then confirm:

proof liskov application resume APPLICATION_ID \
  --reason "maintenance complete" \
  --yes

Resume allows Liskov to evaluate desired state again. It can create a new successor and reserve new Service Credits; it does not revive an ended job. Resolve Action Plan blockers before repeating resume.

Verify​

After pause, verify inactive posture and the absence of newly admitted work; separately observe any existing job through scheduled end. After resume, verify a new plan/deployment only when policy requires one, then follow it to runtime contact.

Pause is reversible. If you want permanent removal, use Retire an Application.
