This Bash script registers a validator on the Aztec network using the aztec CLI. It automatically waits until a target UNIX timestamp and then triggers the add-l1-validator transaction with the provided parameters.

🛠️ Useful for time-sensitive validator registration on testnets like Sepolia.

• Waits until a future UNIX timestamp before executing
• Clean parameter-based config for secure and flexible use
• Supports unattended execution via screen or any terminal session manager

• Bash (Shell scripting)
• Aztec CLI
• Time-based automation
• Ethereum JSON-RPC
• screen (optional but recommended)

If you get an error like this:

Error: ValidatorQuotaFilledUntil(uint256 _timestamp) (1746568152) <-- copy the value

Copy the timestamp value (e.g., 1746568152) and update the script:

##📁 Cloning & Running the Script (Recommended with screen)

screen -S regvalidator
wget -O register-validator.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kalikot26/aztec-validator-registration-script/main/register-validator.sh
chmod +x register-validator.sh

nano register-validator.sh

Look for:

TARGET_TIMESTAMP= Paste the new value from the error and save the file (Ctrl + s) and exit (Ctrl + X).

Apply your RPC, PrivKey, and Address

./register-validator.sh

To detach the session: Ctrl + A, then D

To reconnect later: screen -r regvalidator
