# Emergency Protocol

NODO vaults integrate real-time automation with human-in-the-loop oversight.

### Monitoring

Automated (every 30–60s):

* PnL losses, slippage, gas spikes, TVL drops → auto actions\
  \
  **Manual (daily):**
* Guardian checks performance, IL, volatility, data status

### Response Workflow

1. System Triggers: Auto-reduce positions or initiate shutdown
2. Manual Review: Vault Provider & Curator decide on adjustments
3. Execution: Actions taken or overridden within 60 minutes
4. User Communication: Updates every 10–60 minutes with full report in 24h

### Recovery

Post-emergency audits, parameter updates, and enhanced monitoring for 7 days.

By assigning risks to roles and defining safeguards at each layer, NODO ensures vault reliability, transparency, and user protection in live DeFi environments.
