The basics of Warthog in plain words. You can read this page even when you’re locked out of your account.

What Warthog does

Warthog is where you manage what each compatible agent can do through its Warthog connection: which of your services and information it can use, what needs your approval first, and a record of the requests it makes through Warthog. It doesn’t control an agent’s own tools, chats or spending outside Warthog.

Connecting an agent

Each agent connects to Warthog with its own connection, so you can change or remove its access without touching your other agents. When it uses a service you’ve connected, it goes through Warthog and the permissions you chose. Warthog doesn’t give it your passwords.

Approvals and “Ask me first”

When an agent asks for something that needs your say, such as a protected detail, your card for a purchase or a change you’ve asked to check, Warthog holds the request in your Inbox until you approve or deny it.

Set a rule to “Ask me first” for anything you always want to check. Warthog holds the request until you decide.

A request waits 15 minutes for your answer unless you change the approval expiry in Rules & budgets, to anything from 2 minutes to 24 hours. If you don’t decide in time, the request expires and is denied, and the agent is told.

Getting back into your account

Lost your passkey? Sign in with your email and the recovery code you saved when you signed up. Recovering removes your old passkeys and authenticator app and signs out every other device. Your agents stay connected, so check them afterwards.

Lost your recovery code too? You can reset your account by email. A reset takes 7 days, erases your saved cards and protected details, and disconnects your agents and services. Everything else is kept. Once it finishes, you have 7 days to set up a new passkey.

Your privacy

Your details, your cards and the record of what your agents do are yours. You can export everything or delete your account yourself in Settings. The privacy policy explains what we store, where it’s kept and who can read it.
