Common Workflow

Upgrade

1. Download the new release
2. Extract to the same directory (or a new one)
3. Copy your config.yaml to the new directory
4. Restart the bot

Downgrade

Same as upgrade — download the older version and use your existing config.

Run in Background

screen -S smb
./run.sh
# Ctrl+A, D to detach

Reattach: screen -r smb

Multiple Bots with One Jupiter API

Run the Jupiter API once, then point multiple bot instances to it:

# Bot 1
JUPITER:
  PORT: 18080

# Bot 2 (same machine, different config)
JUPITER:
  PORT: 18080  # Same port, reuses the running instance

Save Logs

./run.sh 2>&1 | tee bot.log

Migrate from 0.2.x to 0.3.x

The config format changed between versions. Key differences:

• YAML structure reorganized
• New strategy names (blind_quote replaces old naming)
• Jito config simplified

Use Multiple IPs

For advanced users running on servers with multiple IPs:

# Route specific traffic through a different IP
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -d <JITO_IP> -j SNAT --to-source <YOUR_SECOND_IP>

This allows you to send Jito bundles from multiple IPs to avoid rate limits.

Switch Config Files

./run.sh --config another-config.yaml
