Half a percent. That is the whole discipline, in one number.
The Motes policy caps slippage at 0.50%, and the cap is checked on every call, alongside per-trade size, daily cap, and expiry. A trade that would slip further simply does not execute.
The docs give the example: a buy of 90 USDC of an allow-listed infra token at 0.21% slippage, under the 0.5% cap. The cap is a condition of the trade, not a suggestion.
This matters because slippage is where a good idea quietly loses money. A market that moves against you while your order fills is a tax no one announces, and the cap is the refusal to pay it.
The cap sits in the policy the owner signs, next to the maximum per trade and the daily cap. The agent cannot widen it, and the smart account enforces it before settlement.
Set the cap, keep the cap. Half a percent is a small number with a large job.
