Kill switches

getKillswitch reads an operational kill switch from the cached rules blob. A kill switch is the panic lever: true means "killed" (the protected path should be disabled).

Whole kill switch

import ai.shipeasy.Client;
import java.util.Map;

Client c = new Client(Map.of("user_id", "u_123"));
boolean killed = c.getKillswitch("panic_button");
if (killed) {
    // disable the protected path
}

getKillswitch(name) returns true when the whole kill switch is killed. Unknown kill switches return false.

Named per-key switches

A kill switch can carry named per-key switches. Pass the switch key to read one:

boolean checkoutOff = c.getKillswitch("panic_button", "checkout");

With switchKey, the call returns true when that specific named switch is on. An unconfigured switch key falls back to the kill switch's top-level value, so a switch you haven't explicitly set tracks whether the whole kill switch is killed. A null switchKey reads the whole-kill-switch killed state directly.

Kill switches are not user-scoped — the bound user is irrelevant to the result, but reading them off the same Client keeps everything one-stop.
