Deploy the existing GenesisResearch contract from this pinned Foundry repository as the custom onchain research layer of GENESIS (https://imdgenesis.xyz). Contracts only on Ethereum mainnet: exactly one GenesisResearch, no token, pool, distributor, proxy, or website. Preserve production source semantics and all budget, authorization, callback, replay and commit/reveal protections.

Constructor arguments in exact declaration order: owner=0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 (use $owner), intake=0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82, asset=0xd34a99bc0f67ae1bbd63c660e6d0b0dd03e263b7, worldCommitment=0x190996ed4ed39d38bd9cf088077f0f9aa4afc5d926df034f0b4f792259599fac, spendCap=500000000000000000, price=500000000000000000.

Start unfunded: zero native value and zero IMD funding. Do not approve, transfer, order research, create extra jobs, or call any post-deployment method. The human authorizes this one contract launch only.

Owner is the requester wallet, never a worker, service wallet or factory. Compile with Solidity 0.8.26, Paris, optimizer 200 and bytecode_hash none. Run the supplied 19 Foundry tests, including the callback gas limit and 256 budget fuzz runs; review and produce the deployment manifest with these exact static arguments.

Document the onchain address and ownership. The earlier paid research job 62c73a84-26cf-4378-962e-c72e55ceb81d was a separate direct Intake request; this launch must not claim retroactive commitment timing or prior registry use. Scientific scoring stays offchain and prize-recipient rules are external to this contract.

No secret seeds, wallet keys or environment files are part of this repository.

  2. Audit imported codeAgent #1807found 1 high, 2 low, 2 info

    Review complete. The findings file is written and no tracked file was changed.

    Outcome

    The contract is sound against the Pashov checklist on access control, reentrancy, budget accounting, callback authentication and commit/reveal binding. All 19 supplied tests pass under the pinned profile, including the 200 000 gas callback test and the 256-run budget fuzz. The runtime has no DELEGATECALL, CALLCODE or SELFDESTRUCT, no proxy, no initializer, no payable constructor, and no mint, pause or seizure logic. One blocking defect reproduced.

    Findings written to .imd-findings.json

    • High, with proof. The constructor at src/GenesisResearch.sol:104 requires the intake and asset addresses to have code. The launch floor deploys on an empty forge chain where only the factory exists, so the exact manifest arguments revert with InvalidConfiguration and the launch is parked. The proof test in test/scratch/ConstructorEmptyChain.t.sol fails on the current code and passes when the two code-length checks become zero-address checks. I confirmed both outcomes by running it, using a forge-std checkout outside the repository.
    • Low. The order price is a stored copy and never read from the Intake. If the live price drops, the difference is overpaid to the treasury. If it rises above 0.5 IMD, setPrice cannot follow because the cap is immutable, so the contract can never order again.
    • Low. Tokens other than IMD sent to the contract are unrecoverable, and ownership cannot be transferred. Design choice, recorded so the requester accepts it knowingly.
    • Info. With cap equal to price, one refused or failed job exhausts the registry permanently, and an abandoned body can never be re-ordered. Both match the stated design.
    • Info. Coverage statement for the adapter, including verified callback selectors, the action id, and the exact six-entry constructorArgs order for the manifest.

    Coverage

    I read the single production contract, its test file, README, foundry.toml, both protected floor tests, and all supplied skill references. The owner floor's floor/OwnerChecks.sol is not in the tree and could not be reached, so that check was judged from its description. The live Intake and IMD token source were not fetched, so Intake behavior comes from the skill references.

    Next

    The adapter should swap the constructor's code-length checks for zero-address checks before the manifest step. Everything else can ship as is.

    • highConstructor requires intake and asset to have code, so the launch floor's empty-chain deployment reverts and parks the launchsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:104

      The constructor reverts InvalidConfiguration unless intake_ and asset_ already have code. The protected floor test (.imd/reads/protected/evm_contracts/Contracts.protected.t.sol) deploys every application by CREATE2 on a fresh forge chain where only the factory is etched; the live Intake 0xa43e...de82 and IMD 0xd34a...63b7 have no code there, so deployment fails with 'application 0 constructor failed' and the launch is parked before anything reaches mainnet.

      The launch reference states this explicitly: a constructor that requires an address to have code reverts on the empty chain. The same checks add nothing on mainnet (the addresses are fixed in the brief), and setIntake already re-validates code at runtime.

      Fix: replace the code-length checks with zero-address checks in the constructor (keep the runtime check in setIntake, or check code on first use in _orderResearch).

      State: fresh forge chain (no fork), chainId 1.

      Call: new GenesisResearch(0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97, 0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82, 0xd34a99bc0f67ae1bbd63c660e6d0b0dd03e263b7, 0x190996ed4ed39d38bd9cf088077f0f9aa4afc5d926df034f0b4f792259599fac, 500000000000000000, 500000000000000000) — the exact manifest arguments.

      Expected: deployment succeeds with owner/intake/asset/worldCommitment/spendCap/price set.

      Actual: reverts InvalidConfiguration() because intake_.code.length == 0 (and asset_.code.length == 0).

      Verified: test/scratch/ConstructorEmptyChain.t.sol fails on this code with InvalidConfiguration() and passes when the two code-length checks are replaced by zero-address checks.

    • lowOrder price is a stored copy, not the Intake's live price: drift causes overpayment to the treasury or permanent inability to order under the 0.5 IMD capsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:176

      The contract never calls Intake.priceOf(action, asset); it pays its own stored price. The intake pulls exactly amount and forwards it with no refund, so if the live job.open price is below the stored price the difference is lost to the treasury on every order. If the live price rises above the stored price, requestWithFailure reverts (short payment) and the owner must raise price with setPrice, but setPrice refuses any value above the immutable spendCap.

      With the brief's spendCap = price = 0.5 IMD, a live price increase of even 1 wei makes the contract permanently unable to order research. Reading priceOf at order time (bounded by the caller's expectedPrice) avoids the overpayment; the cap interaction is a design limit the requester should accept knowingly.

      Scenario A (overpay): stored price = 0.5e18, live Intake.priceOf(job.open@job-1, IMD) = 0.4e18, contract funded with 0.5e18. owner calls orderResearch(body).

      Expected: 0.4e18 pulled.

      Actual: 0.5e18 approved and pulled, 0.1e18 unrecoverable.

      Scenario B (lockout): live price = 0.6e18, spendCap = 0.5e18. orderResearch reverts at the Intake; owner calls setPrice(0.6e18) -> reverts InvalidConfiguration() (line 152: next > spendCap).

      No path to order ever again.

    • lowTokens other than the configured asset sent to the contract are unrecoverable, and ownership cannot be transferredsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:232

      withdrawUnused only moves the immutable asset. There is no generic ERC-20 rescue and owner is immutable with no transfer or two-step handover. Any other token transferred to the contract (airdrops, mistakes) is stuck, and loss of the owner key strands the IMD balance and all owner functions (setResearcher, setIntake, setPrice, abandonResearch, openEpoch, withdrawUnused).

      The contract has no receive/fallback, so ETH cannot be stranded. Design choice; reported so the requester accepts it knowingly.

      State: any ERC-20 X != asset.

      Call: X.transfer(genesisResearch, 1).

      Expected: owner can recover.

      Actual: no function in GenesisResearch can move X; withdrawUnused calls asset.transfer only.

      Similarly, owner() returns the constructor owner forever; there is no function that changes it.

    • infoWith spendCap == price (brief), a single refused or failed job permanently exhausts the registry; an abandoned request also burns its body foreversrc/GenesisResearch.sol:182

      spent is incremented before the request and never decremented on failure (status 1 or 2) or abandonment, and spendCap is immutable. Under the brief's arguments (cap 0.5 IMD, price 0.5 IMD) the contract can place exactly one job in its lifetime; if that body is refused by the plane (body_invalid, body_refused, missing_plan), the 0.5 IMD is spent and remainingBudget() is 0 forever.

      Separately, usedBodies[bodyHash] stays true after abandonResearch, so a job whose callback was lost cannot be re-ordered with the identical body. Both match the stated design ('bounded', 'identical body is never purchased twice'); the researchers must preflight the body with POST /requests/check before the one order.

      State: funded 0.5e18, cap 0.5e18, price 0.5e18. owner calls orderResearch(body) -> spent = 0.5e18.

      Intake calls onFailure(id, 1, 'body_invalid', 0, 0, '') -> state Failed, pendingRequestId cleared. owner calls orderResearch(otherBody) -> reverts BudgetExceeded(). setPrice cannot help (cap immutable).

      For abandonment: order body B, warp 7 days, abandonResearch(id), then orderResearch(B) -> reverts DuplicateBody().

    • infoCoverage: contracts read, checks run, and inputs that could not be reachedsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:22

      Read in full: src/GenesisResearch.sol (the only production contract), test/GenesisResearch.t.sol, README.md, foundry.toml, the pinned Pashov guide and adapter, the oracle-consumer and intake-client skills with their REFERENCE.md, and Contracts.protected.t.sol / Owners.protected.t.sol.

      Could not be reached: floor/OwnerChecks.sol (ProjectOwnersTest, imported by Owners.protected.t.sol) is not in the tree, so the owner floor was judged from its description only; the live Intake v2 and IMD token source were not fetched (no fork), so Intake behavior is taken from the skill references.

      Checks run: forge build and all 19 supplied tests pass under solc 0.8.26 / Paris / optimizer 200 / bytecode_hash none, including testResultCallbackFitsIntakeGasBudget under a 200000 gas call and testFuzzBudgetNeverOverspends with 256 runs. Runtime bytecode (8391 bytes) scanned with the floor's algorithm: no DELEGATECALL (0xf4), CALLCODE (0xf2) or SELFDESTRUCT (0xff); no proxy, initializer, payable constructor, mint, pause, blacklist or seizure logic exists.

      Callback ABI verified with cast: onResult(bytes32,bytes32,string) = 0x4374622e, onFailure(bytes32,uint8,bytes32,uint16,uint16,bytes) = 0x5a0df71e, action id bytes32('job.open@job-1') = 0x6a6f622e6f70656e406a6f622d31 right-padded, all matching the intake-client reference.

      Access control, reentrancy (synchronous callback rejected via nonReentrant; onResult/onFailure gated on msg.sender == recorded intake, Pending state and pendingRequestId), budget accounting (spent <= spendCap invariant; check-effects before external calls; whole purchase reverts on intake failure or duplicate id), allowance hygiene (approve 0/cost/0), and commit/reveal binding (domain, chainid, contract, world, epoch, targetHash, participant, hash, salt) were traced with concrete values and no further defect reproduced.

      Owner powers (setResearcher, setIntake when idle, setPrice <= cap, withdrawUnused at any time, openEpoch, abandonResearch after 7 days) are trust assumptions of the design, not bypasses.

      Manifest note for the adapter: constructorArgs must be six strings in order ["$owner" or the brief's static owner 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97, "0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82", "0xd34a99bc0f67ae1bbd63c660e6d0b0dd03e263b7", "0x190996ed4ed39d38bd9cf088077f0f9aa4afc5d926df034f0b4f792259599fac", "500000000000000000", "500000000000000000"]; the constructor is nonpayable and the launch sends no ETH or IMD, satisfying 'start unfunded'.

      Not a defect. Commands: forge test (19 passed, fuzz runs 256); opcode scan of out/GenesisResearch.sol/GenesisResearch.json deployedBytecode found no 0xf4/0xf2/0xff outside PUSH data; cast sig for both callbacks matches the values asserted in testOrdersExactProtocolAndClearsAllowance.

  3. Adapt contract projectAgent #16464 files changed

    Done. The GenesisResearch contract is now launchable through the factory, with one reproduced audit finding fixed and everything else preserved.

    What reproduced and was fixed

    • High finding (constructor requires code): confirmed. The exact manifest arguments reverted InvalidConfiguration on a fresh chain because the live Intake and IMD addresses have no code there. The constructor now checks for non-zero addresses only. The code check moved to first use in _orderResearch, before any state write or token call, so the contract still never approves or pays a non-contract. setIntake keeps its runtime code check unchanged.
    • Three low/info findings (stored price vs. live priceOf, immutable owner with no token rescue, cap equal to price allowing one lifetime job): each reproduces as described, but all are the project's documented design and the brief fixes those arguments and asks for production semantics to be preserved. Left unchanged and recorded as trust assumptions in ADAPTATION.md.

  5. Audit permissionsAgent #61found 2 info

    The review is complete and .imd-findings.json is written. The working tree is otherwise unchanged.

    Result: no defects in the permissions model. The Access Control, Trust Gap and Asymmetry guides were checked against all 13 state-changing entry points, the constructor, and the launch arguments. Every guard holds as intended.

    What I verified

    • Owner-only functions (setResearcher, setIntake, setPrice, openEpoch, abandonResearch, withdrawUnused) all reject outsiders with Unauthorized. The owner is an immutable constructor argument, never the factory or msg.sender.
    • Both callbacks require the stored per-request intake as sender, a Pending state, and a matching pendingRequestId. A foreign request id, a wrong sender, an unlisted failure status, and a second settlement all revert. Synchronous reentry from the intake is blocked.
    • Ordering is limited to the owner and appointed researchers. Budget, duplicate-body, single-pending, exact-cost and approval-reset checks hold, and a reverted purchase rolls back all bookkeeping.
    • Commit/reveal binds the participant, epoch, target, chain and contract. A copied commitment cannot be revealed by someone else, and a reveal-time front-run cannot commit because the window is closed.
    • The source diff between the two commits is formatting plus the two documented constructor changes, so production semantics are preserved.
    • All 19 supplied tests plus 5 launch tests pass, including the 200k callback gas test and the 256-run budget fuzz. Selectors and the action id match the Intake v2 interface.

    Two info notes recorded so the judge has the trust assumptions on file. Neither opens a revision.

    1. spendCap bounds Intake spending only. The owner's withdrawUnused can take every funded IMD at any time, which is the documented design.
    2. The legacy orderResearch(bytes) overload passes the live price as the expected price, so an owner price change in flight is paid at the new price. Only trusted actors and the owner's own funds are involved.

    Not reached: the live Intake's handling of an underpayment (revert versus a spent short_payment refusal), because the Intake source is not in the supplied reference. No mainnet fork was run.

    • infoTrust assumption: spendCap bounds researchers only; the owner can withdraw every funded IMD at any timesrc/GenesisResearch.sol:265

      Access x economics seam, documented as a trust assumption and not a defect (the README states donations create no claim and the brief preserves production semantics). The lifetime cap spendCap is enforced only on the path that pays the Intake (_orderResearch, line 204: if (cost > spendCap - spent) revert BudgetExceeded();).

      The owner's withdrawUnused has no relation to spent or spendCap, so the 'bounded research budget' bounds what the owner and the researchers can spend through the Intake, not what the owner can take out. Anyone who calls fund (line 152, unguarded by design) is trusting the immutable owner wallet 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 completely.

      There is no unprivileged amplifier: a non-owner caller gets Unauthorized (verified), and setIntake cannot redirect more than spendCap through orderResearch because the post-call balance check (line 226) forces exactly cost to leave per order. Reported so the judge records the power and preconditions; no code change is proposed because the brief asks that the owner model and semantics be preserved.

      State: GenesisResearch deployed with spendCap = price = 0.5 IMD, a donor calls fund(5 ether) so the contract holds 5 IMD.

      Call: owner calls withdrawUnused(owner, 5 ether).

      Actual: 5 IMD leave, spent stays 0, remainingBudget stays 0.5 IMD.

      Expected (by design): the same; the cap is not a custody bound.

      Contrast: attacker (0xB) calling withdrawUnused(0xB, 1) reverts Unauthorized().

      Verified with a scratch Foundry test on this tree (test_ownerWithdrawIgnoresSpendCapAndOutsidersCannot, passing).

    • infoLegacy overload orderResearch(bytes) makes the price check tautological; an owner price change in flight is paid at the new pricesrc/GenesisResearch.sol:183

      Asymmetry between the two orderResearch variants. The price-bound overload (line 188) lets the caller refuse an order at a price they did not review; the legacy overload passes the live price as expectedPrice, so if (price != expectedPrice) revert UnexpectedPrice(); (line 198) can never trigger on that path.

      Consequence: if the owner's setPrice (line 174, no pending check) lands before a researcher's legacy-overload order, the order pays the new price from the contract's IMD and consumes that much of spendCap.

      With the launch arguments (spendCap = price = 0.5 IMD) the only reachable change is a decrease, which the live Intake either reverts on or refuses with short_payment (status 1), spending the lowered amount for nothing; the Intake source is not in the supplied reference so which of the two happens is not verified here.

      The actor on both sides is trusted (owner sets the price, researcher is owner-appointed) and the funds are the owner's, so per the validation gates this is not a defect; the audit finding 1dd09f3f already records the stored-price design and the requester accepted it. Recorded as a coverage note for the judge: the legacy overload exists and is callable by researchers.

      State: contract funded with 0.5 IMD, researcher R appointed via setResearcher(R, true), price = 0.5 IMD.

      Sequence in one block: owner setPrice(0.4 ether) (allowed since 0.4 <= spendCap), then R orderResearch(bytes("{...}")) via the one-argument overload.

      Actual: order proceeds with cost 0.4 IMD, spent = 0.4, 0.4 IMD approved to and pulled by the intake.

      Expected if the caller had used orderResearch(body, 0.5 ether): revert UnexpectedPrice() with nothing spent (covered by the supplied test testBoundedOrderRejectsChangedPriceBeforeAnyPaymentOrBookkeeping).

    Review result

    Area covered: Execution Trace, Periphery and First Principles guides from the Pashov reference, applied to src/GenesisResearch.sol and the two test files. Every one of the 13 listed entry points was traced through its checks, state changes and failure paths. The suite of 19 supplied tests plus the 5 launch tests passes, including the callback gas test and the 256-run budget fuzz.

    Findings written to .imd-findings.json (2 findings, 16 coverage rows):

    • Low, hard-coded action id. RESEARCH_ACTION is a constant at src/GenesisResearch.sol:78 with no setter. The intake-client reference requires actions to be owner-settable. If the live Intake retires job.open@job-1, every order reverts with ActionNotSold forever. No funds are lost, so the impact is loss of function only. Reproduced with a mock Intake in test/scratch/ActionConstant.t.sol. The author should either accept this explicitly, as they did for the stored-price limitation, or add a guarded setter.
    • Info, manifest owner resolution. The brief asks for $owner while also stating the owner address. The two agree only if the paying wallet or request owner field is that address. This is for the manifest step to confirm, not a code defect.

    What holds in my area: The order path locks budget, body and count before any external call, resets allowance to zero on both sides of the Intake call, and verifies the exact balance delta and a fresh non-zero request id. Both callbacks match the reference ABI (selectors confirmed with cast), authenticate against the per-request stored intake, and fit the 200 000 gas stipend from a cold transaction (about 62k for failure, 100k for a result with a full CID URI, measured in test/scratch/CallbackGas.t.sol). Dependency swap is blocked while a request is pending. Commit/reveal binds to participant, epoch, target, contract and chain, with disjoint windows. The slither reentrancy leads on fund and _orderResearch are the intended before/after balance pattern against a fixed asset under nonReentrant and are not exploitable.

    Not done: No critical or high finding, so no proof file was needed. The repository has no lib/forge-std, so a proof importing forge-std/Test.sol would not compile here; I note that for whoever runs a future proof. I did not review the other three specialists' areas beyond what my traces touched.

    • lowResearch action id is a compile-time constant; an Intake version move makes orderResearch revert permanently with no owner remedysrc/GenesisResearch.sol:78

      The intake-client reference pinned to this task states that the actions a client offers are constructor input and owner-settable, never a constant, because a new action version (job-2) or a moved price must not need a redeploy. GenesisResearch hard-codes RESEARCH_ACTION = bytes32("job.open@job-1") and passes it to requestWithFailure in _orderResearch (line 218); there is no setter.

      The owner can replace the intake (setIntake) and the price (setPrice), but can never change the action. Once the live Intake stops selling job.open@job-1 (it reverts ActionNotSold before any token moves, per the reference), every orderResearch call reverts and the registry can never order research again; the only recovery is withdrawUnused and a fresh deployment. No funds are lost (the revert happens before approve/transfer), so impact is loss of function only.

      The ADAPTATION notes record the analogous stored-price limitation (1dd09f3f) as accepted design, but not this one, so the author should decide explicitly whether to accept it or add an owner-only setAction guarded like setIntake (no pending request). Preserving the constant is compatible with the brief only if the requester accepts that the single affordable order must happen while job-1 is still sold.

      State: GenesisResearch deployed with the brief's arguments and funded with 0.5 IMD; the Intake at intake now sells only job.open@job-2 and reverts ActionNotSold for job.open@job-1.

      Call: owner -> orderResearch(validBody, 500000000000000000).

      Expected (per reference): the owner can point the contract at the new action version and order.

      Actual: the call reverts with ActionNotSold from the Intake; RESEARCH_ACTION() still returns 0x6a6f622e6f70656e406a6f622d31000000000000000000000000000000000000, no function changes it, spent stays 0 and the 0.5 IMD stays in the contract.

      Reproduced in test/scratch/ActionConstant.t.sol (testOrderRevertsForeverWhenActionVersionMoves, passing = behaviour confirmed) with a mock Intake that accepts only bytes32("job.open@job-2").

    • infoManifest step: owner written as $owner must resolve to the brief's stated wallet, else the deployed owner differs from the briefREADME.md:13

      The brief fixes owner=0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 and asks that the manifest use $owner. The launch reference resolves $owner to the wallet that paid for the launch or the owner the request's owner field names, and says an owner address the brief itself states is written as that static address. The two agree only if the paying wallet or the request's owner field is 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97.

      Not a code defect: the constructor stores whatever address the factory supplies (owner is immutable, line 83, no transfer). The manifest author should confirm the resolution before submitting, or write the static address the brief states, which is the form the reference prefers for a brief-stated owner.

      State: launch.json constructorArgs[0] = "$owner" and the launch's paying wallet (or request owner field) is any address W != 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97.

      Expected: GenesisResearch.owner() == 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 as the brief requires.

      Actual: owner() == W, immutable, with no onchain remedy.

      If W == 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 there is no issue; confirm which it is at the manifest step.

  7. Audit mathAgent #1658found 1 low

    The review is complete. The findings file is written and the supplied suite still passes.

    Result: one low-severity defect, no critical, high or medium findings in the math, boundary or numerical-gap area.

    Finding 1 (low), src/GenesisResearch.sol:277. The epoch deadline checks are strict by one second only, so the owner can open an epoch whose commit or reveal window is narrower than an Ethereum block. Reproduction: at t=1000, openEpoch(h, 1100, 1101) is accepted; Alice commits; at t=1096 reveal reverts TooEarly and at t=1108 it reverts RevealClosed, so her commitment is stranded forever. The variant openEpoch(h, 1001, 2000) opens an epoch nobody can ever commit to. The proof in test/scratch/EpochWindow.t.sol fails on the current code in three tests. Suggested fix is a minimum window length that reverts InvalidEpoch.

    What held, with evidence:

    • Budget arithmetic: spent never exceeds spendCap, the subtraction never underflows, and the balance delta must equal cost exactly. The 256-run fuzz passes. With the brief's price equal to the cap, exactly one order fits.
    • Live boundary checks on mainnet via public RPC: IMD is a plain OpenZeppelin ERC-20 (LayerZero OFT, 18 decimals) with no fee or pause; approve to zero returns a 32-byte true, so the three-step approve sequence works. The live Intake price for job.open is 0.5 IMD, equal to the stored price. The live Intake reverts PriceNotMet on underpayment, so a price rise cannot burn budget. The 16384-byte body bound equals the Intake's own.
    • Callback ABIs and action id match the verified Intake source. Under the Intake's fixed 200k stipend, onResult uses 83k gas with a 64-byte URI and 187k at 12 KB; it only fails near 16 KB. onFailure uses about 60k.
    • The accepted earlier findings on stored price versus live price and on the immutable owner are noted in coverage, not re-reported.

    Coverage: all 13 entry points have rows (12 holds, 1 finding), plus rows for the spend invariant, the manifest-argument constructor and the token return-data boundary. Nothing was left unreached. Only the scratch probe files I used for measurement were removed; no repository file was changed.

    • lowopenEpoch accepts commit/reveal windows narrower than one block, stranding every commitmentsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:277

      Boundary defect (Boundary guide: zero/minimum input; Math Precision guide: comparator at the sole-occupant boundary). openEpoch only requires revealDeadline > commitDeadline and commitDeadline > block.timestamp, both strict by one second.

      Ethereum blocks are 12 s apart, so a reveal window [commitDeadline, revealDeadline) of 1..11 seconds can contain no block at all: every participant who committed gets TooEarly in the last block before the window and RevealClosed in the first block after it, and the commitment is permanently unrevealable because targets cannot be replaced and there is no re-open path.

      The symmetric case, commitDeadline = block.timestamp + 1, opens an epoch in which nobody can ever commit (the next block is already >= commitDeadline). The input is owner-supplied, so this is a parameter-validation gap rather than an attack, but the contract's stated guarantee ('pins the holdout specification before participants commit', commit then reveal) is silently broken for the whole epoch and the gas spent by committers is lost.

      Minimal fix that preserves the design: require revealDeadline - commitDeadline >= a minimum window (e.g. 1 hour) and commitDeadline - block.timestamp >= the same minimum, reverting InvalidEpoch otherwise.

      State: fresh GenesisResearch, block.timestamp = 1000.

      1. owner calls openEpoch(keccak256('holdout'), 1100, 1101): expected InvalidEpoch, actual returns epoch 1.

      2. Alice calls commitPrediction(1, predictionCommitment(1, alice, H, salt)) at t=1000: succeeds.

      3. At t=1096 (last block before the window) Alice calls revealPrediction(1, H, salt): reverts TooEarly.

      4. At t=1108 (first block after it) the same call reverts RevealClosed. predictions[1][alice].revealed stays false forever.

      Variant: openEpoch(h, 1001, 2000) at t=1000 is accepted but every commitPrediction in the next block (t>=1012) reverts CommitClosed.

      Scratch test test/scratch/EpochWindow.t.sol fails on the current code for both windows.

  8. Audit economicsAgent #528found 2 low

    The review is complete. Findings and the coverage record are in .imd-findings.json; the working tree is otherwise unchanged.

    Outcome. The economics of GenesisResearch hold against the live protocol. I found no critical, high or medium defect in the Economic Security, Invariant or Flow Gap areas. Two low findings are reported.

    What I verified, beyond reading the code

    • All 24 supplied tests pass under the project's own profile, including the 256-run budget fuzz and the 200 000-gas callback test.
    • On a mainnet fork I deployed the contract with the exact manifest arguments and ordered through the real Intake and real IMD token. The Intake pulled exactly 0.5 IMD, the allowance was cleared, and the request was recorded as pending.
    • The real writer's complete for both a result and a status-1 failure landed in the contract under the Intake's stipend. A stranger who paid the Intake and named this contract as their callback could not settle or clear our pending request.
    • Live priceOf(job.open@job-1, IMD) equals the manifest's 0.5 IMD. IMD is a standard 18-decimal token with no pause, blacklist, fee, hook or proxy selectors. The compiled runtime has no DELEGATECALL, CALLCODE, SELFDESTRUCT or post-Paris opcodes.

    Findings

    1. Low. src/GenesisResearch.sol:203 pays the owner-stored price in full. The live Intake only enforces a floor: a stored price above the live one is pulled entirely and forwarded to the treasury. The fork trace showed 0.6 IMD taken when the live price was 0.5. Under the manifest this means the single lifetime order overpays if the plane lowers the job price before the owner lowers price. Suggested fix: require the live priceOf to equal the stored price before ordering.
    2. Low. src/GenesisResearch.sol:78 hardcodes the action id and the asset is immutable, against the Intake client rule that both are owner-settable. If job-1 is retired on chain, every order reverts ActionNotSold forever, which I confirmed on the live Intake with an unsold action. Funds stay recoverable through withdrawUnused.

    Coverage. All 13 entry points have rows: 11 hold, both orderResearch overloads reference finding 1. I added rows for the budget, payment, pending-lock and body-replay invariants and for the launch inputs. The accepted design points in ADAPTATION.md (one refused body exhausts a cap equal to the price, researchers as trusted spenders, no token rescue) are recorded as trust assumptions rather than repeated as findings.

    • lowOrder pays the stored price in full even when the Intake's live price is lower: overpayment to the IMD treasury and budget burnsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:203

      Economic Security / dependency seam. _orderResearch passes the owner-stored price as amount to Intake.requestWithFailure (lines 216-224) and never reads Intake.priceOf(RESEARCH_ACTION, asset).

      The live Intake v2 at 0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82 (Ethereum mainnet, https://ethereum-rpc.publicnode.com) enforces only a floor: an amount below priceOf reverts PriceNotMet(price, amount) (safe, nothing moves), but an amount above priceOf is pulled in full by transferFrom and forwarded to the treasury 0x4e0fA57Bde726079356537E2F34d671E9F41ADbc with no refund, and spent is charged the full amount.

      The manifest fixes price = spendCap = 0.5 IMD, equal to today's live priceOf(job.open@job-1, IMD) = 500000000000000000 (read on mainnet). If the plane later lowers the job price (an external, non-owner event) and the owner has not called setPrice first, the registry's single lifetime order overpays the difference and the whole 0.5 IMD cap is consumed by one job that cost less.

      The price-bound overload orderResearch(body, expectedPrice) binds the caller to the stored price, not to the live one, so it does not prevent this. A researcher (non-owner) cannot lower price and so cannot avoid the overpayment. Impact is bounded by spendCap (at most 0.5 IMD under the manifest), hence low.

      ADAPTATION.md records the earlier lead 1dd09f3f as 'stored price instead of priceOf' and accepted it; this finding adds the live-chain evidence that the Intake pulls amount, not priceOf, so the stored price is an overpayment risk and not only a liveness one.

      Minimal fix that preserves the production semantics (immutable cap, owner-set price): in _orderResearch read uint256 live = IIMDIntake(intake).priceOf(RESEARCH_ACTION, asset); (add priceOf to the IIMDIntake interface; it is a view on the live Intake) and if (live == 0 || live != cost) revert UnexpectedPrice(); before any state write, so an order can never pay more than the live price and the owner's stored price acts as the reviewed ceiling.

      Mainnet fork at block 26235195 (test/scratch rehearsal, run with --evm-version cancun because the live IMD runtime uses post-Paris opcodes): (1) new GenesisResearch(owner=this, intake=0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82, asset=0xd34a99bc0f67ae1bbd63c660e6d0b0dd03e263b7, world=0x190996ed...9fac, spendCap=1e18, price=5e17); owner calls setPrice(6e17); contract holds 2e18 IMD.

      (2) owner calls orderResearch('{"objective":"x","template":"research"}', 6e17).

      Expected (if the registry paid the live price): 5e17 IMD leaves the contract, spent == 5e17.

      Actual (trace): IMD.transferFrom(research, 0x4e0fA57B...ADbc, 600000000000000000) succeeds, requestId 0x8b892ac2... is returned, contract balance 2e18 -> 1.4e18, spent == 6e17; 0.1 IMD overpaid with no refund path.

      Control: setPrice(5e17 - 1) then orderResearch(body, 5e17 - 1) reverts PriceNotMet(500000000000000000, 499999999999999999) inside the Intake and nothing moves.

      Under the manifest (cap = price = 5e17) the same mechanism applies whenever the plane's job price drops below 5e17 before the owner lowers price: the one lifetime order overpays (5e17 - live) IMD.

    • lowAction id is a compile-time constant and the asset is immutable: retiring job-1 or moving IMD leaves no way to order again, against the Intake client rule that both are owner-settablesrc/GenesisResearch.sol:78

      Dependency failure (Economic Security 'break dependencies'). The supplied intake-client reference, which by its own terms wins over the brief where they disagree on the protocol, states that the action id and the asset are 'constructor input and owner-settable, never a constant: a new version (job-2) or a moved price must not need a redeploy'.

      GenesisResearch hardcodes RESEARCH_ACTION = bytes32("job.open@job-1") and makes asset immutable (line 84); only intake and price are settable. On the live Intake an action whose price is zero is not sold: priceOf returns 0 and requestWithFailure reverts ActionNotSold(action, asset) before any token moves (verified on mainnet with the unsold id schedule.create@schedule-1 via eth_call, and priceOf(schedule.create@schedule-1, IMD) == 0).

      When the plane retires job-1 on chain, every orderResearch call reverts forever and the owner's only remaining action is withdrawUnused; if the plane stops serving job-1 off-chain while the chain still prices it, the next ask is accepted, 0.5 IMD is pulled and the plane refuses it with status 1 reason action_not_sold, consuming the registry's entire lifetime cap on a refused job. No funds are stolen and the owner can recover unused IMD, so this is low.

      The brief asks that production semantics be preserved, so this is reported as a scope decision for the requester rather than a change to make silently: a minimal, semantics-preserving fix is an owner-only setter for the action id (settable only while pendingRequestId == 0, mirroring setIntake) and, if the asset must move, a setter for asset+price together as the reference describes, with spendCap still immutable.

      Live Intake 0xa43e6f75ee006411f79ac1c84120606c2330de82 on Ethereum mainnet: priceOf(bytes32("schedule.create@schedule-1"), 0xd34a99bc0f67ae1bbd63c660e6d0b0dd03e263b7) returns 0 and an eth_call of requestWithFailure(that action, 0x7b7d, (0x..01, 0x4374622e), 0x5a0df71e, IMD, 500000000000000000) reverts ActionNotSold(0x7363686564756c652e637265617465407363686564756c652d31000000000000, 0xD34a99Bc...).

      State that triggers the defect: the Intake owner sets the job.open@job-1 price to 0 (job-2 introduced).

      Then GenesisResearch.orderResearch(body, 5e17) from the owner reverts ActionNotSold at line 216-224 for every body, and there is no function that changes RESEARCH_ACTION (grep: the identifier is written only at line 78 and read at line 218).

      Expected per the Intake client reference: the owner sets the new action id and orders continue; actual: the registry can never order again.

      Mock reproduction without a fork: a MockIntake whose requestWithFailure reverts when action != bytes32("job.open@job-2"); every orderResearch call on GenesisResearch reverts and no owner call can make one succeed.

  10. Audit judgeAgent #1514found 3 low, 2 info

    The review is complete. The findings file is written at the repository root and the working tree is otherwise untouched (the findings file and test/scratch are gitignored).

    Outcome. No critical, high or medium defects. The contract's budget, authorization, callback authentication, replay and commit/reveal protections hold as the brief requires, and all 73 tests pass under the project's own foundry.toml, including the 19 supplied tests, the 200k gas callback test and the 256-run budget fuzz. The manifest is schema-shaped, names one contract, and carries the six constructor words in declaration order with $owner as the brief asks.

    Findings kept, after reproduction and merging:

    1. Low, openEpoch window validation. Windows narrower than one block are accepted, stranding commitments. The supplied proof fails on this tree for the stated reason, so it is attached.
    2. Low, stored price vs live price. Orders pay the owner-stored price and never read the Intake's priceOf, so a live price drop overpays and burns the cap. The legacy overload's price check is tautological. Merged from the economics and permissions specialists, confirmed with a mock Intake. The live mainnet price today still equals the stored 0.5 IMD.
    3. Low, constant action id. A retired job-1 action leaves orderResearch reverting forever with no owner remedy. Merged from the economics and flow specialists, confirmed with a mock Intake. Flagged as a scope decision since the brief asks that production semantics be preserved.
    4. Info, owner trust assumption. The cap bounds Intake spending only; the immutable owner can withdraw all funded IMD.
    5. Info, $owner resolution. The deployed owner matches the brief only if $owner resolves to the stated wallet.

    Leads dropped. Slither's reentrancy lines do not reproduce: every value-moving entry and both callbacks share one guard, and the unguarded functions reachable from a hook cannot touch custody or budget. Aderyn's lines are style only.

    Coverage. All 13 entry points are answered, plus rows for the constructor and manifest, the reentrancy leads and the test suite.

    • lowopenEpoch accepts commit/reveal windows narrower than one block, stranding every commitmentsrc/GenesisResearch.sol:277

      openEpoch only requires commitDeadline > block.timestamp and revealDeadline > commitDeadline, each strict by one second. Ethereum blocks are 12 s apart, so a reveal window [commitDeadline, revealDeadline) of 1..11 seconds can contain no block: a participant who committed gets TooEarly in the last block before the window and RevealClosed in the first block after it, and because targets cannot be replaced and there is no re-open path the commitment is permanently unrevealable.

      Symmetrically, commitDeadline = block.timestamp + 1 opens an epoch nobody can ever commit to. The input is owner-supplied, so this is a parameter-validation gap, not an attack, and no funds move: severity low. Reported by audit_math; reproduced here with the attached proof (3 tests fail on this tree).

      Minimal fix preserving the design: require a minimum distance for both commitDeadline - block.timestamp and revealDeadline - commitDeadline (e.g. at least 1 hour), reverting InvalidEpoch otherwise.

      State: fresh GenesisResearch(owner=this, intake=0x1234, asset=0x5678, world=keccak('world'), 1e18, 1e18), block.timestamp = 1000.

      (1) owner calls openEpoch(keccak256('holdout'), 1100, 1101).

      Expected: revert InvalidEpoch.

      Actual: returns epoch 1.

      (2) Alice commits predictionCommitment(1, alice, H, salt) at t=1000: succeeds.

      (3) At t=1096 Alice calls revealPrediction(1, H, salt): reverts TooEarly.

      (4) At t=1108 the same call reverts RevealClosed; predictions[1][alice].revealed stays false forever.

      Variant: openEpoch(h, 1001, 2000) at t=1000 is accepted but every commitPrediction in the next block (t >= 1012) reverts CommitClosed.

      Run: forge test --match-path test/scratch/Proof_b80951846b28.t.sol -> 3 failed on the current code (testRevealWindowNarrowerThanOneBlockIsRejected, testCommitWindowNarrowerThanOneBlockIsRejected: 'next call did not revert as expected'; testCommitmentStrandedByOneSecondRevealWindow: 'commitment stranded').

    • lowOrders pay the owner-stored price, never the Intake's live priceOf: overpayment burns the cap when the live price drops, and the legacy overload cannot refuse an in-flight price changesrc/GenesisResearch.sol:203

      _orderResearch passes the stored price as amount to Intake.requestWithFailure and never reads Intake.priceOf(RESEARCH_ACTION, asset) (the interface at line 12 does not even declare priceOf). Per the pinned intake-client reference the Intake pulls exactly amount and forwards it to the treasury with no refund, and reverts only when amount is below priceOf.

      So (a) if the plane lowers the job price below the stored price before the owner calls setPrice, the registry's single affordable order (spendCap == price == 0.5 IMD under the manifest) overpays the difference and the whole lifetime cap is consumed by one job that cost less; a researcher cannot lower price, so cannot avoid it.

      (b) The legacy overload orderResearch(bytes) passes the live price as expectedPrice, so the price != expectedPrice check at line 198 is tautological on that path: an owner setPrice landing before a researcher's legacy order is paid at the new price. With the launch arguments only a decrease is reachable, which the Intake floor refuses (PriceNotMet, nothing moves) when below the live price.

      Live mainnet check today: Intake.priceOf(job.open@job-1, IMD) == 500000000000000000, equal to the stored price, so there is no overpayment at launch; the exposure is bounded by spendCap (0.5 IMD) and conditional on a future price move, hence low. ADAPTATION.md records the stored-price design as accepted (1dd09f3f); this finding adds the overpayment direction. Merged from audit_economics (overpayment) and audit_permissions (legacy overload).

      Minimal fix preserving the immutable cap and owner-set price: add priceOf to IIMDIntake, read live = priceOf(RESEARCH_ACTION, asset) in _orderResearch and revert UnexpectedPrice when live == 0 or live != cost, so the stored price acts as a reviewed ceiling and an order never pays more than the live price.

      Mock Intake keeping the live rules (reverts ActionNotSold when priceOf == 0, PriceNotMet when amount < priceOf, pulls exactly amount): research = GenesisResearch(owner, intake, imd, world, 0.5e18, 0.5e18), funded 0.5 IMD, intake.priceOf(job.open@job-1) = 0.5e18.

      (a) intake price lowered to 0.4e18; owner calls orderResearch(body, 0.5e18).

      Expected if paying the live price: treasury +0.4e18, spent 0.4e18.

      Actual: treasury +0.5e18, spent == 0.5e18, remainingBudget() == 0.

      (b) owner setPrice(0.4e18), then orderResearch(body) (one-argument overload): Actual: reverts inside the intake PriceNotMet(0.5e18, 0.4e18), spent stays 0; the registry's own check at line 198 never triggers.

      Scratch test test/scratch/PriceAndAction.t.sol (testStoredPricePaidInFullWhenLivePriceLower, testLoweredStoredPriceRevertsAtIntakeFloor) passes = behaviour confirmed.

    • lowResearch action id is a compile-time constant (and the asset immutable): an Intake action version move leaves orderResearch reverting forever with no owner remedysrc/GenesisResearch.sol:78

      The pinned intake-client reference states the intake, the asset and the actions offered are constructor input and owner-settable, never a constant, because a new version (job-2) or a moved price must not need a redeploy. GenesisResearch hardcodes RESEARCH_ACTION = bytes32("job.open@job-1") and reads it only at line 218; asset is immutable (line 84, documented in the README as deliberate so the cap cannot change denomination). Only intake and price are settable.

      When the Intake stops pricing job.open@job-1 it reverts ActionNotSold before any token moves, so every orderResearch call reverts, and the owner's only remaining action is withdrawUnused plus a redeploy. If instead the plane stops serving job-1 off chain while the chain still prices it, the next ask is accepted, 0.5 IMD is pulled and the plane refuses it with status 1 action_not_sold, consuming the registry's entire lifetime cap on a refused job.

      No funds are stolen and unused IMD stays recoverable, so low. The brief asks that production semantics be preserved, so this is a scope decision for the requester: either accept that the single affordable order must happen while job-1 is sold, or add an owner-only action setter guarded like setIntake (only while pendingRequestId == 0), and, if the asset must move, an asset+price setter with spendCap still immutable. Merged from audit_economics and audit_flow (same root cause).

      Mock Intake that prices only bytes32("job.open@job-2") (priceOf(job-1) == 0, requestWithFailure reverts ActionNotSold(job-1, imd)). research funded with 0.5 IMD.

      Owner calls orderResearch(validBody, 500000000000000000).

      Expected per the reference: the owner points the contract at the new action and the order proceeds.

      Actual: reverts ActionNotSold(0x6a6f622e6f70656e406a6f622d31000000000000000000000000000000000000, imd); RESEARCH_ACTION() still returns that id, no function in the ABI changes it, spent == 0 and the 0.5 IMD stays in the contract.

      Scratch test test/scratch/PriceAndAction.t.sol testActionRetiredLeavesNoRemedy passes = behaviour confirmed.

    • infoTrust assumption: spendCap bounds Intake spending only; the immutable owner can withdraw every funded IMD at any timesrc/GenesisResearch.sol:265

      The lifetime cap is enforced only on the path that pays the Intake (line 204). withdrawUnused has no relation to spent or spendCap and no pending-request check, so the 'bounded research budget' bounds what the owner and researchers can spend through the Intake, not what the owner can take out; anyone who calls fund (unguarded by design) trusts the immutable owner 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 completely.

      There is no unprivileged amplifier: non-owners get Unauthorized, and setIntake cannot redirect more than spendCap through orderResearch because the post-call balance check (line 226) forces exactly cost to leave per order. The README states donations create no claim and the brief preserves production semantics, so this is recorded as a trust assumption with its actor and preconditions, not as a defect; no code change proposed. From audit_permissions.

      State: GenesisResearch deployed with spendCap = price = 0.5 IMD; a donor calls fund(5e18) so the contract holds 5 IMD.

      Owner calls withdrawUnused(owner, 5e18): 5 IMD leave, spent stays 0, remainingBudget() stays 0.5e18.

      Contrast: 0xB calls withdrawUnused(0xB, 1): reverts Unauthorized().

      Covered by the supplied test suite (test/GenesisResearchAdversarial.t.sol testRejectedWithdrawalDoesNotChangeCustodyOrBudget and the custody invariant), all passing on this tree.

    • infoManifest writes the owner as $owner; the deployed owner equals the brief's wallet only if $owner resolves to itlaunch.json:7

      The brief fixes owner=0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97 and asks that the manifest use $owner, which launch.json does. The launch reference resolves $owner to the wallet that paid for the launch or the owner the request's owner field names, and prefers a brief-stated owner be written as that static address. The two agree only if the paying wallet or the request's owner field is 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97.

      Not a code defect: the constructor stores whatever the factory supplies, owner is immutable (line 83) and there is no transfer, so a wrong resolution has no onchain remedy. The manifest otherwise checks out: exactly kind/contracts/notes, one contract named GenesisResearch (15 chars), six string constructor arguments in declaration order matching the brief, notes 1632 characters. Recorded so the admission step confirms the resolution.

      From audit_flow.

      State: launch.json constructorArgs[0] == "$owner" and the launch's paying wallet / request owner field is W != 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97.

      Expected: GenesisResearch.owner() == 0x550011cadcc758969391050241b2fc43ed1a4b97.

      Actual: owner() == W, immutable.

      If W is the brief's wallet there is no issue; confirm which before deployment.
