# Pause or resume a signal agent

> Status-only lifecycle: `active` or `paused`. Paused agents stop
finding leads; resuming picks up where the agent left off (a resume
is rejected with `invalid_request` when the agent's destination list
is gone; point it at a new list in the SuperX app first). Other
fields (name, ICP, precision, destination) are edited in the SuperX
app. Naturally idempotent, so there is no `Idempotency-Key` support.
Main account only in v1.

  title: SuperX API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    The SuperX public API: your Twitter/X content, analytics, audience and

    scheduling data over REST.


    All endpoints require an API key (`Authorization: Bearer sxk_...`) except

    `GET /v1/docs`. Keys are created in the SuperX app under Account > API / MCP
    / CLI

    and are server-side secrets.


    Timestamps are UTC ISO-8601 in both directions; inputs must carry an
    explicit

    `Z` or numeric offset. Every authenticated response carries

    `X-RateLimit-Limit`, `X-RateLimit-Remaining` and `X-RateLimit-Reset`
    headers.
