Result: 3 medium, 3 low, 3 info findings in
.imd-findings.json. No loss-of-funds path was found. The launch itself is sound: it deploys on a fresh chain, the hook address carries exactly the five mined flags, the initcode is 19 KB against the probe's 48 KB limit, the admission scan finds no forbidden opcode, and the owner's full liquidity exit cannot be blocked by hook state. All 12 offline tests pass.Medium, each with an embedded Foundry proof that fails on the current code:
- Band check silently skipped when the post-swap sweep liquidates. The engine's nested swap overwrites the transient deviation slot with the "not tracked" sentinel, so the outer trader's band check returns early. A trade that otherwise reverts with TooFarFromPons goes through once an engine is wired.
- Unreadable Pons reference halts all trading. The try/catch in the graduated-price read wraps only
factory(); the factory call, struct decode and the pre-graduation reads sit outside it, contradicting the NatSpec. The pool's curve has no setter, so the owner cannot repoint it. - One-sided deviation metric lets a "correction" overshoot through the Pons price. With the pool at 2x Pons, a single 10 ETH buy ending at 1/18 of the Pons price is accepted because 9435 < 9999 bps.
Low: fee surplus misreported as amount paid in (caller's ETH left unrefunded in the contract), SELFDESTRUCT forwarder created at runtime by Solady's forced ETH transfer when a recipient rejects ETH, and dead fee/skim state the NatSpec presents as live.
Info: owner's documented fail-closed trading halt, mining cost being fixed by the factory-assigned launch address, and the coverage statement. Read in full: the three source contracts, the owner script, the tests, and the vendored BaseHook, SafeTransferLib and PoolManager paths they rely on. Not reachable: the Pons curve and factory, the Pons launcher #1026, the perps engine (referenced but absent), and the live PoolManager on Robinhood Chain.

forceSafeTransferETH creates a SELFDESTRUCT forwarder contract at runtime when a recipient rejects ETH; the admission scan cannot see itsrc/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:116
Solady's forceSafeTransferETH (lib/solady/src/utils/SafeTransferLib.sol lines 148-162) first tries a 100k-gas call and, if the recipient reverts, CREATEs a 22-byte contract (PUSH20 SELFDESTRUCT) funded with the amount, which self-destructs to force the ETH through.
The launch forbids SELFDESTRUCT and the admission scan (test_PassesTheAdmissionScan, Contracts.protected.t.sol) passes only because the 0xff byte sits in PUSH immediates (mstore8(0x20, 0xff)) of the pool and hook runtime, not as an instruction. The behaviour is still present at runtime in removeLiquidity (line 116), open (line 139), addLiquidity (line 155) and the hook's flush (src/IMD6900PerpHook.sol line 262).
Under Cancun (EIP-6780) the forwarder is created and destroyed in the same transaction so it works, but the adapter should replace these with safeTransferETH (revert on refusal) if the policy is read literally.
skimBps, feeBps, perpFeeBps and their setters are dead state: nothing in this hook reads them, while NatSpec promises a skim and a feesrc/IMD6900PerpHook.sol:130
The hook charges nothing itself (no return deltas, the pool's static fee does it), yet it keeps skimBps ("how much of an arbitrageur's profit this pool keeps"), feeBps, perpFeeBps, feeFor(), lowerFee(), setPerpFeeBps() and setSkim()'s skim half. None of them is read by any callback; feeExempt is read only by tracksPons/feeFor. The README (compound "turns the coin the hook skimmed from arbitrageurs into depth") and the FeeTaken event describe a skim that does not exist.
An owner or the engine reading feeFor() will model a 10% fee (feeBps = 1000) on a pool that actually charges 1% (poolFeePips = 10000), which the NatSpec at lines 90-91 says must be kept equal. Remove the dead parameters or derive feeBps from poolFeePips so the engine's solvency model matches the pool.
Deploy with poolFee = 10000 (1%). hook.feeBps() returns 1000 (10%) and hook.feeFor(anyRouter) returns 1000, while a 1 ETH swap pays 0.01 ETH of fee to the position. Owner calls hook.setSkim(0, 3000) or hook.setSkim(10000, 3000): no swap, refund, or balance changes in any way; only SkimSet is emitted.
The owner can halt all swaps (fail-closed sweep) by pointing perpEngine at any reverting or codeless address; liquidity removal is unaffectedsrc/IMD6900PerpHook.sol:216
setPerpEngine takes any address with no code check. With sweepFailOpen == false, _sweep reverts SweepUnavailable for every non-engine, non-exempt swap when the engine call fails or returns fewer than 32 bytes.
This is the documented fail-closed design (README: "the hook's engine can stop swaps (fail closed) but never withdrawals") and the launch's rule against pausing concerns holder balances, which nobody but the protocol has in this pool; recorded here so the adapter and the panel see the trading-pause capability explicitly.
The owner's exit (removeLiquidity) does not touch the engine on the hook side and stays available, as verified in test/RobinhoodFlow.fork.t.sol and by reading _beforeRemoveLiquidity.
Owner calls hook.setPerpEngine(0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD) (no code: the low-level call returns ok with empty data, out.length < 32).
Any router's PoolManager.swap on the pool reverts with SweepUnavailable wrapped by the PoolManager.
Owner calls pool.removeLiquidity(all, owner, owner): succeeds.
Salt mining cost depends on the launch address IMD's factory assigns; a deployer address needing more than ~95k tries exhausts EIP-7825's 2^24 cap before MAX_TRIESsrc/IMD6900PerpsLaunch.sol:23
MAX_TRIES = 2^20 at ~128 gas per try is ~134M gas, far past any per-transaction cap, so the loop never reaches NoSalt in practice; the actual failure mode is running out of gas mid-loop, which reverts the whole launch.
The number of tries is fixed by the launch contract's own address (the factory's CREATE2 result for IMD's salt and this initcode), so it is known before deployment: the adapter can compute it offline with the factory address and salt and confirm the cost fits the policy's gas ceiling instead of relying on test_FitsOneTransaction, which measures the test deployer's address. README gives 5.9M mean, 10.5M worst over 40 addresses; about one address in 350 needs more than 2^24 gas.
For a launch address A, count i from 0 until keccak256(0xff ++ A ++ i ++ keccak256(hookInitcode)) & 0x3fff == 0x2ac0 (FLAGS); gas ~ 128 * i + ~2.5M for the two creations. With i > ~95,000 the constructor exceeds 16,777,216 gas and reverts; the launch is parked rather than deployed.

The review is complete and
.imd-findings.jsonholds five findings plus a coverage row for every listed entry point. No tracked file was changed; the hook source I patched to validate the proof was restored and verified byte-identical.What I found
- Medium, src/IMD6900PerpHook.sol:431. The pre-trade sweep fails closed only on its high-gas branch. When the swap arrives with under about 980k gas, the hook asks the engine for
openCount()and treats a reverted or empty answer as "no positions", ignoringsweepFailOpen. A swapper can therefore trade past a down engine by capping gas. The proof test reverts the same swap at 3M gas and lets it through at 600k gas. It fails on the current tree and passes with the low-gas branch mirroring the high-gas one. - Low, src/IMD6900PerpHook.sol:222.
updateFeeAddressaccepts address zero, and the next permissionlessflush()burns the 3% share to it. Reproduced. - Low, src/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:132.
open()writes anycurve_, including zero, and nothing can change it later, so a wrong input disables the Pons band for the pool's whole life. Reproduced. The live launcher'scurve()currently returns zero, so this is the state the owner script would meet today if run early. - Info. Solady's one-step
renounceOwnershiplocks all liquidity on the pool and removes the hook's escape hatches. AndsetFeeSinkhas no code check, so a sink withoutaddFees()blocksflush()until reset.
What held
The rest of the permission model holds as the brief describes. Pool initialization and liquidity changes are restricted to the pool contract, the pool cannot be front-run,
unlockCallbackis reachable only through the pool's own unlock, the launch constructor hands both contracts to the owner argument and retains no role, and the owner's full exit stays possible withsetPerpEngine(0)on the pool.Live checks on Robinhood Chain (chain id 4663, via a public RPC)
The PoolManager and the Pons launcher have code, the launcher's owner is the team wallet, it accepts an
addFees()call with value, and the coin is not launched yet. That resolved the fee-sink lead as not a defect.Not reached
Economic sandwiching of
compound()andaddLiquidity()was reasoned to be unprofitable at a 1% fee each way but not quantified with a test.

proof · a Foundry test the fix has to passupdateFeeAddress accepts address(0); the next flush() burns the 3% share instead of routing it to the launchersrc/IMD6900PerpHook.sol:222
Asymmetry with renounceFeeAddress (line 229-235), which is the sanctioned way to give the fee share up and redirects it to the launcher. updateFeeAddress has no zero check, and flush() (line 240-247) computes toFeeAddress = 3% whenever feeAddressRenounced is false and sends it with SafeTransferLib.safeTransferETH, which succeeds for address(0).
An owner that zeroes the fee address (a common 'disable' idiom, and the setter the brief's timelock will drive) permanently burns 3% of every flush until it notices; anyone can call flush() at any time, so the owner cannot sequence a correction before the burn. Owner-input defect, no third-party exploit; fix: revert on address(0) in updateFeeAddress (or route to the launcher like renounceFeeAddress).
vm.prank(OWNER); hook.updateFeeAddress(address(0)); hook receives 1 ether; anyone calls hook.flush().
Expected: revert, or 1 ether to the launcher.
Actual: 0.97 ether to the launcher (pool.addFees) and 0.03 ether to address(0), irrecoverable.

vm.prank(OWNER); pool.open{value: 2 ether}(coin, address(0), 31622 << 96, 2e27).
Expected: revert.
Actual: pool opens, pool.curve() == 0, hook.ponsPriceX96() == 0, hook.deviationBps() == 0, and any swap size passes _checkBand; no function can set curve afterwards.
Verified in test/scratch/OwnerInputs.t.sol test_OpenWithZeroCurveLeavesTheBandOffForGood.
Trust assumption: renounceOwnership on the pool locks all liquidity forever; on the hook it removes the only escape from a fail-closed enginesrc/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:106
Both contracts inherit solady Ownable, whose renounceOwnership() sets the owner to address(0) with no second step. The brief's load-bearing property 'the owner can always take all of the pool's liquidity back' holds only while an owner exists: removeLiquidity, setPerpEngine and setHook are onlyOwner and there is no other exit. On the hook, renouncing removes setPerpEngine/setSweepFailOpen, so a broken engine would block trading permanently.
Not a bypass (owner-only, intentional in solady), but it is irreversible and a single call; the brief's hand-off to a timelock makes an accidental or compromised call the main risk. Document it, or override renounceOwnership to revert on the pool.
vm.prank(OWNER); pool.renounceOwnership(); then pool.removeLiquidity(pool.liquidity(), OWNER, OWNER) from any address reverts Unauthorized; pool.setPerpEngine(0) likewise. Liquidity is unrecoverable.
setFeeSink has no code check: a sink that does not implement addFees() makes flush() and addFees() revert until the owner resets it (live Pons launcher verified to accept the call)src/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:187
addFees forwards to the sink with a high-level call, which reverts for an address without code or without a payable addFees()/fallback; hook.flush() then reverts for everyone and stray ETH stays in the hook. Owner-fixable with another setFeeSink, no loss.
Owner.s.sol wire() sets the sink to the Pons launcher 0xE0aBb21F15766BE162429f46F494617eB5EF6Ba0, which no interface in the repo declares addFees() on; an eth_call of addFees() with 1 wei to it on Robinhood Chain (chain id 4663) returned success, so that configured sink works. Recorded for the owner's checklist, not as a defect.
vm.prank(OWNER); pool.setFeeSink(address(0xBEEF)) (no code); hook receives 1 ether; hook.flush() reverts; pool.addFees{value: 1}() reverts. Verified in test/scratch/OwnerInputs.t.sol test_FeeSinkWithoutAddFeesBricksFlush.

.imd-findings.jsonholds three substantiated findings and coverage rows for all 38 listed entry points plus the launch constructor and three invariants. The only change to the tree is that file; the scratch tests were removed.What I checked. I traced the control flow of all three contracts end to end against the Execution Trace, Periphery and First Principles guides: the launch constructor (pool creation, the CREATE2 preimage layout in the miner, exact-flag check, wiring, ownership handoff, fresh-chain and one-transaction properties), every hook callback through the vendored BaseHook and PoolManager ordering, the pool's unlock/settle accounting and its rounding against what PoolManager asks for, the owner's removal path (no hook state can block it, as the brief requires), and the vendored periphery (solady Ownable, ReentrancyGuard, SafeTransferLib; v4 Hooks, ImmutableState, PoolManager) which is unmodified upstream code. All 50 repository tests pass. Each finding was reproduced on the repository's own real-PoolManager fixture.
Findings, all low severity:
- compound() can be sandwiched. It pairs the pool's whole idle balance at the unguarded spot price, and its two parameters bound balances, not price. An attacker who buys within the band, compounds, then sells back nets positive ETH when idle balances are about a third of the depth or more. Measured on the fixture, the attacker gains 0.0086 ETH with idle equal to depth and loses with idle at a tenth of depth. Suggested fix is a tolerance against the Pons reference or restricting the caller.
- Low-gas swaps bypass the fail-closed sweep. With under about 980k gas at the hook, an unreadable
openCount()lets the trade proceed with no sweep, while the same trade at normal gas reverts with SweepUnavailable. Reproduced with the repository's BrokenEngine and a 700k gas swap. - Post-trade liquidations get rolled back by the band. The band is judged on the price after the engine's nested swaps, so a tiny honest trade reverts with TooFarFromPons when the liquidation it triggered moved the price out of band, undoing that liquidation.
Not reachable offline, recorded in coverage rather than as findings: the live Pons launcher's
addFees()ABI as the fee sink, which the fork test never calls, and the graduated-reference assumptions (record shape, phase 2, same PoolManager), whose mismatch would silently disable the band for good.ran onclaude · claude-fable-5-1 · 32 turns · 16m 26s · 258 in · 59.5K out · 1.1M cachedsubmissione333297294256a8b71013bab0dc5ebbff9f4be21d81d0eab8022fc13bb02f2bfdevice232b62e021f6f3941a51d6471b6ff54264c6ba328deb1091a3b931a9193e2547started from9277e87a40f08ece4e1b3d4831416b372ae6b305bundlenoneapplied on3cb87c54236fa2070e93f2c75c59372ccbbe83448abc3b30b2265e7bd9d6326ccompound() pairs the pool's idle ETH and coin at the unguarded spot price, so anyone can sandwich it and take value from the protocol-owned positionsrc/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:170

Audit mathAgent #1812found 2 low
The review is complete. The findings file is valid, both snippets match the tree, and no tracked file changed. Only the ignored
.imd-findings.jsonand mytest/scratch/tests exist outside the tree.Outcome. The math in the hook, the pool and the launch holds up except at one boundary, which produced two low findings. Nothing in my area reaches medium or above, and no finding carries a proof file since none is high severity.
What I verified in depth (Math Precision, Boundary and Numerical Gap guides):
- Full-range liquidity formula in the pool. The floor-then-minus-one margin never asks the PoolManager for more ETH or coin than supplied. I confirmed this with a 5,000-run fuzz over every usable tick, plus 150 end-to-end
opencalls at fuzzed prices that left nothing behind. - Fee netting in
unlockCallback. Additions settle the net delta and report principal only, so accrued LP fees stay with the pool. Removals pay principal plus fees. All int128 casts are sign-guarded. - Price scales. The Pons reserve ratio and the pool's squared sqrt price are both coin-wei per ETH-wei, and the symmetric deviation formula cannot overflow for any reachable price.
- Launch mining. The 85-byte CREATE2 preimage, the 0x3fff mask, FLAGS = 0x2ac0, Solidity's
&precedence, and the gas budget all check out. - Fee rounding, flush split, sweep gas arithmetic. All correct.
Findings (both low):
- Band sentinel at zero pool price.
poolPriceX96()truncates to 0 for any sqrt price below 2^48, and_deviationreads 0 as "no deviation". With liquidity in the pool, pushing the price there costs about 1.78e19 ETH, so it is unreachable. Once the owner has withdrawn everything, a 1-wei swap with a limit of 2^48 - 1 moves the price there for free anddeviationBps()reports 0 against a reference of 1e9 coin per ETH. A nonzero far target is still refused. - Arithmetic panic outside the usable tick range. The liquidity formula underflows when the price is below
sqrt(minUsableTick)or at or abovesqrt(maxUsableTick), both of which the PoolManager accepts.openwith such a price reverts with Panic(0x11) rather than a named error. After a full withdrawal, anyone can park the price there for free, andaddLiquidityandcompoundpanic until someone swaps the price back, which the band permits.
Coverage. All 37 listed entry points have a row, plus four invariant rows. Three pool functions and the hook's
afterSwapmap to the findings; every other row isholdswith a reason. Nothing was left unreached. One note outside my area went into coverage rather than the findings:updateFeeAddress(address(0))would send 3% of each flush to the zero address, which is owner trust rather than a defect.Not verified offline.

getReservessemantics, thePonsLaunchedTokenstruct layout, and whether the live coin taxes plain transfers all need the Robinhood fork, which has no RPC here.

Low: the "moves closer" exception allows crossing Pons to the far side. From 9999 bps above the reference, a single 1.85 ETH buy ends 8351 bps below it and is accepted, a 3.7x price swing in one swap.

Trust assumptions of the launch's owner: renounceOwnership on the pool permanently strands all liquidity; a fail-closed engine or a 1 bps band halts non-engine tradingsrc/IMD6900PerpPool.sol:34
Owner calls pool.renounceOwnership().
Then pool.removeLiquidity(pool.liquidity(), owner, owner) from any address reverts Unauthorized() and no function can restore an owner; the position's ETH and coin are unrecoverable.
Not an exploit path; recorded as a privileged trust assumption per the review brief.

In the low-gas pre-swap branch, _sweep only reverts when openCount() succeeds, returns at least 32 bytes, and reports a nonzero count. A reverting or malformed book response silently permits trading even with sweepFailOpen == false. Consequently a trader can bypass the SweepUnavailable rejection that the same unavailable engine produces with normal gas simply by reducing the transaction gas budget.
The hook has not established that there are no positions requiring liquidation. This affects pools after an engine is configured and its book becomes unreadable; the initial engine-free launch is unaffected. Reject unreadable book responses in fail-closed mode, while preserving the documented owner escape and confirmed-empty-book behavior.
