> Starts signing in a user's own wallet from a partner's web page, returning the exact EIP-4361 message to sign with personal_sign.

No API key required.

openapi: 3.1.1
info:
  title: Totalis Hyperliquid API
  description: >-
    REST API for Totalis singles and parlays on Hyperliquid HIP-4 outcome
    markets, for client integrations and external market makers.


    There are three ways in, each sent as `Authorization: Bearer <credential>`:


    - **Scoped API key** (`ttk_`), for servers, bots and market makers. The
    account owner creates it in the Totalis app, or a wallet-session user
    creates one with `POST /v1/me/api-keys` and a fresh wallet signature (see
    API keys). It acts for one account, yours or a maker's, with only the scopes
    it holds, and needs no `Origin`.

    - **Wallet session**, for users who bring their own wallet to a partner's
    web page. The page signs the wallet in with `POST
    /v1/auth/wallet-challenges` and `POST /v1/auth/wallet-sessions`; the session
    is bound to the page's registered `Origin` and must be sent from it. Pages
    may also label their traffic with their publishable browser key in
    `X-Totalis-Partner: tpb_...`.

    - **Partner server key** (`tpk_`), only for `POST
    /v1/partner/wallet-admissions`, which lets a new wallet open its account
    during the invite-only launch. Server to server, never in a browser, and
    never with an `Origin`.


    Public market reads need no credential. A credential only authenticates:
    every bet, cash-out and withdrawal also carries the wallet or maker
    signature the HyperEVM contract verifies. An external wallet sends `POST
    /v1/core-exits` to move its vault cash to HyperCore before a HyperCore
    order.


    For access, partner credentials (origins, browser and server keys), builder
    codes or staging, email
    [founders@totalis.trade](mailto:founders@totalis.trade).


    Amounts are base-10 strings in native USDC atomic units, large identifiers
    are decimal strings, and every command `POST` requires an `Idempotency-Key`
    header.


    Every error is `{error: {code, message, retry, request_id,
    field_violations}}`. `code` is stable; each operation lists the codes it
    returns per status. `retry` is `NEVER` (stop), `BACKOFF` (resend the same
    request with the same `Idempotency-Key` after `Retry-After` seconds) or
    `REFRESH` (re-read state, then send a new request with a new key).
    `field_violations` names invalid inputs by JSON pointer, such as
    `/legs/0/side`.
