# yield.allocate

> Move funds between yield vaults (Aave/Morpho/Kamino/idle) within the envelope. Blocked by V3 yield infra if that dependency slips.

Move funds between yield vaults (Aave/Morpho/Kamino/idle) within the envelope. Blocked by V3 yield infra if that dependency slips.

## Auth

Caller's grant must include the `treasury:yield-allocate` scope. Grants whose scope set is a superset of the required scope are accepted.

## Step-up flow

`yield.allocate` uses the **same envelope step-up threshold as `payments.initiate`** — step-up is not always required, only when the allocation amount exceeds the envelope's `step_up_amount_cents`.

1. Call `yield.allocate` with your params. If the amount is below the threshold, the allocation is enqueued immediately and you receive a success response.
2. If the amount is at or above the threshold, you receive `-32003` with `data.step_up_url`.
3. Redirect the principal to `step_up_url`. On approval, Glide mints a one-time sigil for `reason: "yield_allocate"`.
4. Re-submit the original call with `step_up_sigil: "<sigil>"` added to params. The server verifies the sigil is bound to `reason: "yield_allocate"` and has not been redeemed.

Note: unlike `vault.rotateSigner`, the allocation row is enqueued **after** the sigil is redeemed in the same call — there is no separate proposal step.
