Autoboss

Automated trading from email instructions.

  • Trading
  • Automation

A small bridge that turns natural-language trading instructions, sent by email, into orders on a brokerage API. Each incoming message gets parsed by an LLM into a structured order spec (instrument, side, size, constraints), validated against a hard rule set (no unauthenticated sender, no over-budget orders, no instrument outside an allow-list, position-size caps), and then either executed or bounced back with a reason.

The interesting bits are not the LLM call — those are well-trodden — but the safety harness around it: a separate signing key for sender verification, a hard cap on total daily exposure, an idempotent execution path so a duplicated message never produces a duplicate order, and a read-only mode used during the first weeks of operation while the parser’s failure modes were being mapped.
