# Admin Set Killswitch

`POST /api/v1/admin/system/killswitch`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.nudgelink.co` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.nudgelink.co/api/v1/admin/system/killswitch`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Toggle the global outreach kill-switch. ON ⇒ the engine stops dispatching
new outreach system-wide (sequences stay active, resume when cleared).
Audit-logged. 502 if Redis is unreachable so a failed safety toggle isn't
silently swallowed.

## Request body

- KillSwitchRequest
  - `enabled` boolean, required
  - `reason` string, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- KillSwitchResponse
  - `outreach_paused` boolean, required

## Other responses
