I bought into the Gun Mettle campaign.
My HUD says I have 2 “inactive” contracts. I'm already on the class and map specified in them. Clicking on them gives me objectives and a misformatted tooltip:
Does them being “inactive” mean I have to activate them? If so, how do I do that?
If not, why aren't they active — is there some other condition I'm not meeting?

There are two reasons I know of for a contract not being active. One is you are the wrong class for the contract the other is you are not on a Valve server. The easiest way to join a Valve server is to use the quick play feature and select gun mettle.
Many 3rd party servers are displaying gun mettle in their servername now but contracts will not work on them, they will just be hosting the new maps etc...
If you hover over the contract it will also give you the reasons for the contract not being active via a tooltip.
