The agreement between the US and the Soviet Union to limit the production of some nuclear weapons was called the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). The first round, SALT I, resulted in the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty and an interim agreement on the limitation of strategic offensive arms in 1972. SALT II followed in 1979, aiming to further reduce the number of nuclear weapons, though it was never ratified by the US Senate. These agreements were crucial in the effort to control the arms race during the Cold War.
Yes, such an agreement exists in the form of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), which was opened for signature in 1968. The treaty aims to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, promote peaceful uses of nuclear energy, and encourage disarmament. It establishes a framework for nuclear-armed states to work towards disarmament while non-nuclear states commit not to acquire nuclear weapons. The NPT has been instrumental in international efforts to control nuclear proliferation and promote global security.
You likely mean to limitation and disarmament of nuclear weapons. This would be the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Atmospheric Test Ban Treaty
There were 23 total nuclear weapons tested at Bikini Atoll between the years of 1946 and 1958. These nuclear weapons caused a great amount of radiation to be leaked into the surrounding areas.
The agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union to limit the number of nuclear weapons was known as the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). The first of these agreements, SALT I, was signed in 1972 and aimed to curb the arms race by establishing limits on intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs). SALT II, which was signed in 1979 but never ratified by the U.S. Senate, sought to further reduce the number of strategic nuclear weapons. These agreements were significant steps in the efforts to control nuclear proliferation during the Cold War.

It's a pact in order to reduce the production of nuclear weapons
An agreement between India and the US to sign their nuclear weapons over to the authority of the IAEA.

Plutonium is a man-made actinide element that is produced in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. It is used as a fuel in nuclear reactors and in the production of nuclear weapons.

Although they have the nuclear material that could be deviated for nuclear weapon production but Ukraine has neither the motivation nor the political/economical will to make nuclear weapons.
Nuclear settlement usually refers to a negotiated agreement between countries or parties regarding the use, possession, or development of nuclear weapons or nuclear energy. These settlements often involve terms and conditions meant to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons and ensure the safe and responsible management of nuclear technology.
The same as it is used now, for electricity production, plus nuclear weapons
The Megatons to Megawatts program involved an agreement between the U.S. and Russia to convert highly enriched uranium from dismantled nuclear warheads into low-enriched uranium for use in commercial nuclear power plants. This program aimed to promote nuclear non-proliferation by reducing global stockpiles of weapons-grade uranium.
