• 1.mediumA trim takes the removed PLEA from the PoolManager before the seller settles, so after the death a sell larger than the pool's PLEA inventory reverts through every swap-then-settle routersrc/PleaHook.sol:794

              poolManager.take(Currency.wrap(plea), address(this), pleaOut);

  _applyCap runs inside afterSwap. When a sell leaves the market band above inventoryCap it removes the excess liquidity and immediately takes the removed PLEA as ERC-20 from the PoolManager to burn it (line 794).

  At that point the seller's PLEA input is not yet in the PoolManager: every standard v4 router (Uniswap's V4Router and Universal Router, the fixture's BuyRouter) calls swap first and sync/settles the input afterwards, so the PoolManager holds only the PLEA that was in the pool before the swap (the market band plus the wall). The IMD side guards exactly this case with own/asClaims and ERC-6909 claims (R3-A3-1, retainClaims); the PLEA side has no such guard.

  Once the cap has caught up with the holdings (the ratchet reaches it within 15 days of quiet buying), the excess over the cap equals the whole fill, so any sale larger than the pool's pre-swap PLEA makes the trim's take revert with ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, held, pleaOut) and the whole swap fails. While the Cabal lives this is unreachable (a gated sale is at most 2.5M PLEA, far under any realistic holding).

  After the death, when THREAT-MODEL invariant 1 says every restriction ends forever and invariant 21 says PLEA sold back above the cap is trimmed, a holder whose position exceeds the pool's remaining inventory cannot sell it in one swap through any ordinary router: the sale must be split into chunks no larger than the pool's PLEA (each intermediate trim thins the band, so the chunks fill at a worse total price) or go through a custom router that settles its PLEA before calling swap.

  No funds are lost; the sale reverts atomically. Severity Medium under section 4: a bounded DoS of a path invariant 1 promises is free, with a workaround. The economics specialist's partial-fill finding is a separate mechanism (IMD side, _payFees) and is reported on its own.

  Fix (preserving the design): do for PLEA what retainClaims does for IMD: in _applyCap (and, for symmetry, _closeWall, though that one runs inside the hook's own unlock where the PoolManager already holds the PLEA) mint the removed PLEA to the hook as ERC-6909 claims (poolManager.mint(address(this), _id(plea), pleaOut)), keep a retainPleaClaims counter, and burn/take/IPLEA.burn it in _rebalance; or take min(pleaOut, plea.balanceOf(poolManager)) now and mint the rest as claims.

  The hook is 218 bytes under EIP-170, so the smaller of the two variants is the one to pick.

  Invariants checked: 1, 19, 21.

  whole finding

  Sepolia settings (IMD as currency0; the same happens with PLEA as currency0 since only the take order matters), a fresh PoolManager.

  1. Right after the 90-minute window alice buys with 20,000 IMD exact-in through a plain swap-then-settle router; she receives about 660M PLEA and the market keeps about 156M.

  2. 20 days pass; bob's 1 IMD buy ratchets inventoryCap down to the holdings (about 156M; the cap travels (820M - 900k) / 15 per day, so 20 days are enough).

  3. The dead-man (33 hours with no verdict) has passed: plea.restricted() is false.

  4. alice sells her whole balance exact-in, no price limit, through the same router.

  Expected: the sale fills, 0.25% of the fill is burned, the excess over the cap is trimmed and its IMD goes to the wall claims.

  Actual: PoolManager.swap reverts with WrappedError(hook, afterSwap.selector, WrappedError(PLEA, transfer, ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, 156,340,207e18, 658,704,060e18))): the trim asks for 658.7M PLEA while the PoolManager holds 156.3M, because alice's 660M input is settled only after swap returns.

  Proof: test/scratch/TrimTakesUnsettledPlea.t.sol (self-contained, no fixture) fails on this code with that revert and passes once the trim keeps the removed PLEA as ERC-6909 claims or takes no more than the PoolManager holds (its post-fix assertions only require the sale to go through, the fee to burn and the market to sit at the cap).

• 2.lowA partially filled exact-input buy reverts when its ERC-20 IMD refund drains the PoolManager below the payouts: `_refund` runs before `_payFees`, whose claims test uses the pre-swap own IMD and never src/PleaHook.sol:600

              bool asClaims = own < out && imd.balanceOf(address(poolManager)) < out;

  In afterSwap the unearned specified-side fee is refunded first (line 523, _refund), and _refund pays it as ERC-20 IMD taken from the PoolManager whenever the PoolManager's IMD balance covers it (line 647). _payFees then decides whether the 1.5% payouts are paid as claims with own < out && balanceOf(PM) < out, where own is this pool's IMD before the swap (market band + wall + retainClaims).

  The refund has already spent part of that same IMD, but own does not see it: when own >= out the claims path is skipped and the plain take of the owner / prize / cashback shares runs against a PoolManager that now holds less than out, so the IMD transfer reverts (ERC20InsufficientBalance) and the whole swap fails.

  The failure band is non-monotonic: the same price-limited buy succeeds when slightly smaller (the refund leaves enough) and when slightly larger (the refund itself exceeds the PoolManager's IMD and is paid as claims, the documented R2-A3-5 path). Invariant 19 and THREAT-MODEL section 3 say a partial fill of an exact-input trade pays on the fill and refunds the rest (as ERC-6909 claims whenever it exceeds the PoolManager's IMD); here it reverts instead.

  No funds are lost (the trade reverts atomically); the trader's own price-limited buy is refused while the pool's IMD is small and the PoolManager holds little other IMD (a fresh chain, Sepolia's TestIMD; on mainnet other IMD pools in the same PoolManager shrink the band).

  Low: an edge case of the trader's own limit with no loss.

  Fix: decide the refund's form and the payouts' form from one budget: compute whether the PoolManager can pay out + refund before refunding (pay the refund as claims when it cannot), or pay the payouts before the refund, or in _payFees test balanceOf(PM) < out alone once the flash-take case is already excluded by own.

  Invariants checked: 19 (partial fills), section 3's refund-as-claims rule.

2. Audit economicsAgent #1766found 1 low

   I found one Low in PleaHook and nothing Critical, High or Medium. The finding is in .imd-findings.json.

   Finding (Low): a partly filled buy can revert instead of refunding (src/PleaHook.sol:600)

   • What happens: when an exact-input buy only partly fills, afterSwap first refunds the unearned fee. It pays that refund as IMD taken from the PoolManager whenever the PoolManager holds enough. _payFees then decides how to pay the 1.5% owner, prize and cashback shares using own, the pool's IMD from before the swap, which doesn't account for the refund just paid. So own >= out holds, the claims fallback is skipped, and taking the payouts fails with ERC20InsufficientBalance. The whole swap reverts.

   • Reproduction (measured with the repository fixture): alice buys 20 IMD, so the PoolManager holds 20 IMD. carol then calls buyExactInLimit with a price limit equal to where a 100 IMD buy would end:

     • 1,000 to 1,160 IMD: succeeds, refund paid in IMD.
     • 1,180 to 1,260 IMD: reverts.
     • 1,280 IMD and up: succeeds, refund paid as about 20.3 IMD or more in ERC-6909 claims.

     Invariant 19 and §3 say the unfilled part's fee is refunded, as claims when the PoolManager is short; here the swap reverts instead.

   • Impact: no funds are lost, because the trade reverts as a whole. The trader's own price-limited buy is refused while the pool holds little IMD and the PoolManager holds little other IMD, as on Sepolia with TestIMD.

   • Fix: decide the refund and the payouts from the same budget. For example, set asClaims when the PoolManager can't pay the payouts plus the refund, or pay the payouts before the refund.

   • No proof field: the Foundry test I ran builds on the repository's test/utils/Fixture.sol, which the proof rules don't allow, so I left the field out (proofs are only required for Critical or High). The reproduction field gives the exact inputs and results.

   Prior fixes for this area are correct and open no new path: R4-A3-1 (PartialFill), R4-A3-2 (the opening rule now counts the buy's own fee), R4-A3-3 (allowance cleared after every credit), R4-A3-4, R3-A3-1 (payout decision based on the pool's own IMD, not the PoolManager's balance), R2-A3-3 and R2-A3-4.

   Invariants checked: 19, 20, 21 and 22, plus invariant 3's checkpoint input (the price an hour's first trade found):

   • Return deltas: exact in and exact out, both directions, both orderings, net to zero for the hook.
   • Fee split: the floor-divided shares never exceed the IMD fee. They can exceed it only for fills under about 200 wei, and those swaps revert.
   • Trader rule: dirty upper bits, the excluded recipients, RecipientRequired while the Cabal lives.
   • Cashback gas: the gas checks around the credit leave no gas-dependent path. A credit that fails pays plain IMD.
   • Cap and trims: the cap's lastCapDecayAt / remainder bookkeeping can't move past now or let the cap fall faster than allowed. A trim burns at most the excess, and its IMD goes to the hook's claims.
   • Wall: the guard rises at most 400 ticks a day and drops at once. Placement is one-sided in both orderings.
   • Transient values: they can't be disturbed between beforeSwap and afterSwap.
   • Agreed numbers: every one in the constants matches section 2.

   Coverage limits:

   • I checked the IMD-first ordering by reading the code only; the reproduction ran with PLEA as currency0.
   • I didn't re-run the existing test suites.
   • I treated the Stacker as trusted, so a credit that pulls less than approved is out of scope.

   I changed no tracked files. The scratch test is deleted, and git status is clean.

   • lowA partially filled exact-input buy reverts when its IMD refund drains the PoolManager below the payouts: _refund runs before _payFees, whose claims test uses the pre-swap own IMDsrc/PleaHook.sol:600

     In afterSwap the unearned specified-side fee is refunded first (line 523, _refund), and _refund pays it as ERC-20 IMD taken from the PoolManager whenever the PoolManager's IMD balance covers it. _payFees then decides whether the 1.5% payouts can be taken as tokens with own < out && balanceOf(PM) < out, where own is this pool's IMD before the swap (market band + wall + retainClaims).

     The refund has already spent part of that same IMD, but own does not see it: when own >= out the claims path is skipped and the plain take of the owner / prize / cashback shares runs against a PoolManager that now holds less than out, so the IMD transfer reverts (ERC20InsufficientBalance) and the whole swap fails.

     The failure band is non-monotonic: the same price-limited buy succeeds when slightly smaller (refund small enough) and when slightly larger (refund exceeds the PoolManager's IMD and is paid as claims, the documented R2-A3-5 path). Invariant 19 / THREAT-MODEL §3 say a partial fill of an exact-input trade pays on the fill and refunds the rest (as ERC-6909 claims whenever it exceeds the PoolManager's IMD); here it reverts instead.

     No funds are lost (the trade reverts atomically); the trader's own price-limited buy is refused while the pool's IMD is small and the PoolManager holds little other IMD (Sepolia TestIMD, or any chain where no other pool holds IMD).

     Fix: decide the refund's form and the payouts' form from the same budget, e.g. compute asClaims before the refund and subtract the refund from what the PoolManager can pay (balanceOf(PM) < out + refund), or pay the payouts before the refund, or test balanceOf(PM) < out alone after the refund once the flash-take case is excluded by own.

     Fixture setup (Sepolia settings, past the launch window, PoolManager holds only this pool's IMD). alice buys 20 IMD exact-in (PoolManager IMD = 20e18: imdInMarket 19.656e18, retainClaims 0.344e18).

     Take the sqrt price a 100 IMD buy would reach as limit (snapshot, buy 100 IMD, read currentSqrtPriceX96, revert). carol calls BuyRouter.buyExactInLimit(g * 1e18, abi.encode(carol), limit).

     Measured: g = 1000..1160 succeed (refund as ERC-20); g = 1180, 1200, 1220, 1240, 1260 revert with ERC20InsufficientBalance(PoolManager, balance, needed) from the IMD transfer in poolManager.take inside _payImd (e.g. g = 1240: balance 0.392e18 left after the ~19.6e18 refund, payout 0.737e18 needed); g = 1280..1400 succeed again with the refund paid as ~20.3e18+ ERC-6909 claims.

   The review is complete. The findings file holds one Info entry and no defect.

   Result. PleaHook and IStacker were read in full, with the calls they depend on in PLEA, CabalGate, Seasons and v4-core's hook plumbing. No path with a concrete failing input was found at any severity. The hook is unchanged since round 5, and every hook fix from rounds 1 to 5 is present in the code and guarded by its named regression test.

   What was checked against the threat model.

   • Invariant 19: the 2.0% split on the filled amount in both orderings. The three floor-divided shares never exceed the IMD fee, exact-in full fills never produce a dust refund, exact-output fills whole or reverts.
   • Invariant 20: the 90-minute window, the linear decay, the 5M cap on the gross fill on both paths, the 5,700 IMD seed on this branch.
   • Invariant 21: the cap only falls, within the daily allowance, never below holdings or 900k. Trims burn at most the excess. The wall sits only below spot, the guard, and the reference tick. Wall IMD leaves the PoolManager only into the hook's reserve. The Stacker allowance is per credit.
   • Invariant 22: the gas checks in beforeSwap and around the credit, basis and hold time reduced only by sells.
   • The trader rule, the ERC-6909 claims paths, the opening exception, and what an outside unlocker can reach.

   One point worth knowing. A gate sell can never partially fill. The swapper's PLEA delta is the fill plus the reserved fee, so the gate's own check reverts on any shortfall. The hook's PLEA refund path is reachable only after the death through outside routers.

   Tests run. Hook, HookAdversarial, HookRevision, AuditRound1 and Orientation suites, all green. The fuzz invariant and fork suites need the full profile's whole-tree build and were left out for time, which the coverage note states.

     Trader rule: hookData word > uint160 falls through; a router cannot name itself; Stacker, IMD, sIMD, PoolManager and the hook are refused; RecipientRequired on a live buy. v4 accounting: beforeSwap's positive specified delta debits the swapper the reserved fee, afterSwap's unspecified delta equals exactly what the hook then takes or mints (unspecAmt on a live buy, the IMD or PLEA fee otherwise), so the hook holds nothing beyond retainedImd and retainClaims.

     A gate sell can never partially fill: the swapper's PLEA delta is fill + fee, so CabalGate.unlockCallback's pleaIn != amount check reverts (the PLEA _refund path is reachable only after the death through outside routers).

4. Audit mathAgent #588found nothing

   The review is complete. The findings file holds an empty list: I found no reproducible defect in PleaHook's math, boundaries or accounting.

   What I checked, and how

   I read src/PleaHook.sol in full with IStacker.sol, the gate's swap callback, the threat model, the findings ledger and the invariant suite's assertions. I then derived the fee arithmetic by hand and confirmed it empirically with twelve scratch tests run in both currency orderings (PLEA as currency0 and IMD as currency0), plus two reference-tick probes. All passed on the current code.

   • Fee on the fill, both directions. Exact-input reserves amount × rate / (BPS + rate) and exact-output amount × rate / (BPS − rate), so the fee is the same share of what the pool fills either way. The after-swap recomputation on the fill is at most one wei above the reserve and is capped to it, so the refund is never negative. For exact-output sells I showed the recomputed fee equals the reserved fee exactly.
   • Fee split never exceeds the fee. Cashback, owner and prize together are 150 bps of the fill; the IMD fee is at least 175 bps minus two wei. The pool share can only underflow below 400 wei of fill, where the shares are already zero. A launch-window buy at an extra 6,222 bps paid owner plus prize plus claims plus Stacker exactly equal to the fee on the fill, with the hook's IMD balance equal to its wall reserve afterwards.
   • Partial fills and refunds. A price-limited exact-input buy inside the window refunded the unearned fee (extra included), as claims when the PoolManager was short, and the recorded basis equalled the net spend. A dead-market exact-input sell with a limit refunded the trader's PLEA as ERC-20 and left nothing in the hook or router. Exact-output trades after the death filled whole, paid 1.75% of the fill, and paid no prize share.
   • Cap ratchet. Pace, remainder carry and the two floors behave as agreed: a buy 91 minutes after seed lowered the cap by exactly 0.0632 days of the 54.6M daily allowance, and after 30 idle days the cap landed exactly on the holdings. The seconds consumed per ratchet never exceed elapsed time, so the bookkeeping cannot run ahead of the clock.
   • Wall guard. The guard rose by at most 400 ticks over a day toward the reference tick and did not move within a block; the reference tick walked 200 ticks per block as designed. Wall placement is min(spot, ref, guard) aligned toward the IMD side, and the single-sided liquidity helper's one-millionth margin keeps the deposit under the reserve.
   • Other leads I closed. Dirty upper bits in hookData or a router's msgSender() fall through rather than truncate. The 63/64 reserve around the credit gives the Stacker the full budget. A Stacker address with no code makes the swap revert whole rather than strand cashback, and the live Stacker cannot lose its code.

   Threat-model invariants covered: 19 (fee on the fill, both orderings, partial fills, exact-output whole-or-revert), 20 (single LP, 90-minute window, 5M per-swap cap, opening market cap alignment), 21 (cap only falls, daily pace, holdings and 900k floors, trims, wall below the guard, 400-tick rise), 22 (gas gate, basis and hold time reduced only by sales). Prior fixes for this area (R4-A3-1, R4-A3-2, R4-A3-3, R4-A3-4, R3-A3-1, R2-A3-3, R2-A3-4) remain in place and none opened a new path.

5. Audit permissionsAgent #1081found 1 medium

   The review is complete and the findings file is written. One finding, with a self-contained Foundry proof that fails on the current code.

   Finding (Medium): a trim takes its PLEA before the seller settles, so a free sale larger than the pool's inventory reverts. src/PleaHook.sol:794. The trim in _applyCap runs inside afterSwap and immediately takes the removed PLEA as ERC-20 from the PoolManager to burn it. Every ordinary router settles the input after the swap, so at that moment the PoolManager holds only the pool's pre-swap PLEA. The IMD side guards this with the own / claims logic from round 3, the PLEA side does not. Once the cap has caught up with the holdings, any single sale larger than the cap plus the wall's PLEA reverts with an insufficient-balance error from the token. In the proof alice buys with 20,000 IMD, the cap ratchets to the holdings over 20 days, the Cabal dies, and her one-swap sale of 660M PLEA reverts because the PoolManager holds 156M. Chunks no larger than the pool's holdings do pass the trim, and a router that pre-settles its PLEA would too, so no funds are lost. It is unreachable while the Cabal lives, since a gated sale is at most 2.5M PLEA and the cap never drops under 900k. It breaks invariant 21 (sold-back PLEA is trimmed) and the "every restriction ends after the death" promise of invariant 1. Suggested fix: mint the trimmed PLEA to the hook as ERC-6909 claims and burn it in the next rebalance, as retainClaims already does for IMD.

   What I checked and found sound (invariants 1, 19, 20, 21, 22 and the round 1 to 5 hook fixes): the beforeSwap and afterSwap delta math for exact-in and exact-out in both orderings, the fee-on-fill and refund paths, the PartialFill rule, the floor-divided fee split never exceeding the IMD fee, the opening exception and claims decision keyed on the pool's own IMD, the trader rule including dirty upper bits and the excluded recipients, the per-credit Stacker allowance and the 63/64 gas rule, the cap ratchet's banked-allowance bookkeeping (verified algebraically and with a probe), the wall placement guard, the 48-slot checkpoint ring and the two-day reference bound, the launch window decay and 5M cap, and all agreed numbers in the constants. The int128 fee cast noted in round 5 remains unexploitable: the hook's shortfall would have to be settled in real IMD.

   Test runs: the Hook, HookAdversarial, HookRevision, AuditRound1, TraderFallbackAdversarial, TraderResolution and TradingInvariant suites all pass on this commit (95 tests). The proof and two probes live under test/scratch and are not kept. The full invariant profile and fork suites were not run in the time available.

   • mediumA trim takes its PLEA from the PoolManager before the seller settles, so a sell larger than the pool's PLEA inventory reverts (free selling after the death is size-capped)src/PleaHook.sol:794

     _applyCap runs inside afterSwap. When a sell leaves the market above the inventory cap it removes the excess liquidity and immediately takes the removed PLEA as ERC-20 from the PoolManager to burn it (line 794). At that point the seller's PLEA input has not been settled: every standard v4 router (the fixture's BuyRouter, the Universal Router, V4Router) calls swap first and sync/settles the input afterwards.

     The PoolManager therefore only holds the PLEA that was in the pool before the swap (the market band plus the wall). The IMD side guards exactly this with own/asClaims (R3-A3-1), the PLEA side does not.

     So whenever the excess over the cap exceeds the pool's pre-swap PLEA, i.e. once the cap has caught up with the holdings, whenever one sale is larger than inventoryCap plus the wall's PLEA, the hook's take reverts with ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, ...) and the whole sale reverts. While the Cabal lives this is unreachable (a gated sale is at most 2.5M PLEA and the cap is at least 900k, so the pool would have to hold under 2.5M of its 820M).

     After the death, when THREAT-MODEL invariant 1 says every restriction ends forever and invariant 21 says PLEA sold back above the cap is trimmed, a holder whose position is larger than the pool's remaining inventory cannot sell it in one swap through any ordinary router: the sale must be split into chunks no larger than the pool's holdings (each intermediate trim thins the band, so the chunks get a worse total price than the single swap) or go through a custom router that pre-settles the PLEA before swapping.

     No funds are lost.

     Fix: do for PLEA what retainClaims does for IMD: poolManager.mint(address(this), _id(plea), pleaOut) in _applyCap (and _closeWall), keep a retainPleaClaims counter, and burn/take/IPLEA.burn it in _rebalance (or take min(pleaOut, plea.balanceOf(poolManager)) now and mint the rest as claims).

     whole finding

     Sepolia-settings fixture, IMD as currency0 or PLEA as currency0 alike.

     1. alice buys with 20,000 IMD right after the launch window (she receives about 660M PLEA; the market keeps about 156M).

     2. 20 days pass; a 1 IMD buy ratchets inventoryCap down to the holdings (about 156M).

     3. The dead-man passes (plea.restricted() is false).

     4. alice sells her whole balance exact-in through the plain BuyRouter (swap, then settle, then take) with no price limit.

     Expected: the sale fills, 0.25% of the PLEA is burned, the excess over the cap is trimmed and its IMD goes to the wall claims (invariants 19 and 21).

     Actual: PoolManager.swap reverts with `WrappedError(hook, afterSwap, ...

     ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, 156,340,207e18, 658,704,060e18))`: the trim's take asks for 658.7M PLEA while the PoolManager holds 156.3M because alice's 660M input is settled only after the swap.

     The same sale split into chunks of at most the pool's PLEA passes the trim's take (verified: the chunks fill and each trim lands; once the market band's IMD is spent a later chunk stops at the price limit until rebalance redeploys the trimmed IMD as the wall), as does a router that settles its PLEA before calling swap.

     Proof: test/scratch/TrimTakesUnsettledPlea.t.sol fails on this code with that ERC20InsufficientBalance and passes once the trim keeps the removed PLEA as ERC-6909 claims (burned at the next rebalance) or takes no more than the PoolManager holds.

6. Audit judgeAgent #1964found 1 medium, 1 low

   Done. The findings file holds two verified defects, both reproduced against the code at this commit, and the tree is unchanged apart from the scratch tests and the findings file.

   Kept findings

   • Medium, src/PleaHook.sol:794. The trim takes the removed PLEA from the PoolManager before the seller's input is settled. After the death, a holder whose position exceeds the pool's PLEA inventory cannot sell in one swap through any swap-then-settle router. My own self-contained proof, test/scratch/TrimTakesUnsettledPlea.t.sol, fails with the exact revert the specialist reported, ERC20InsufficientBalance for 658.7M asked against 156.3M held. I also confirmed it passes under a take-what-is-there-and-mint-the-rest patch, then restored the hook with git and rebuilt. The IMD side already guards this case through retainClaims, so the fix is the PLEA mirror of that.
   • Low, src/PleaHook.sol:600. A price-limited exact-input buy reverts in a band of sizes because the ERC-20 IMD refund runs first and the payout claims decision never sees it. Reproduced in test/scratch/RefundThenPayoutBand.t.sol: sizes 1,000 to 1,160 and 1,280 to 1,400 IMD succeed, 1,180 to 1,260 revert from the owner-share take. No loss, the trade reverts atomically, so Low stands.

   Dropped

   • The flow specialist's coverage note is not a defect and was not carried into the file. Its verification of the earlier hook fixes agrees with my reading of the code.

   Scope and limits

   • Invariants checked: 1, 19, 21 directly on the two paths, plus the section 3 refund-as-claims rule. Both findings are distinct mechanisms, one on the PLEA side in the trim, one on the IMD side in the payouts, so they were not merged.
   • I did not re-run the invariant or fork suites, which need the full profile. The deterministic hook suites were run by the flow specialist and I relied on that record.
   • The audit math specialist reported nothing, and I found no further reproducible defect in the time available.

   • mediumA trim takes the removed PLEA from the PoolManager before the seller settles, so after the death a sell larger than the pool's PLEA inventory reverts through every swap-then-settle routersrc/PleaHook.sol:794

     _applyCap runs inside afterSwap. When a sell leaves the market band above inventoryCap it removes the excess liquidity and immediately takes the removed PLEA as ERC-20 from the PoolManager to burn it (line 794).

     At that point the seller's PLEA input is not yet in the PoolManager: every standard v4 router (Uniswap's V4Router and Universal Router, the fixture's BuyRouter) calls swap first and sync/settles the input afterwards, so the PoolManager holds only the PLEA that was in the pool before the swap (the market band plus the wall). The IMD side guards exactly this case with own/asClaims and ERC-6909 claims (R3-A3-1, retainClaims); the PLEA side has no such guard.

     Once the cap has caught up with the holdings (the ratchet reaches it within 15 days of quiet buying), the excess over the cap equals the whole fill, so any sale larger than the pool's pre-swap PLEA makes the trim's take revert with ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, held, pleaOut) and the whole swap fails. While the Cabal lives this is unreachable (a gated sale is at most 2.5M PLEA, far under any realistic holding).

     After the death, when THREAT-MODEL invariant 1 says every restriction ends forever and invariant 21 says PLEA sold back above the cap is trimmed, a holder whose position exceeds the pool's remaining inventory cannot sell it in one swap through any ordinary router: the sale must be split into chunks no larger than the pool's PLEA (each intermediate trim thins the band, so the chunks fill at a worse total price) or go through a custom router that settles its PLEA before calling swap.

     No funds are lost; the sale reverts atomically. Severity Medium under section 4: a bounded DoS of a path invariant 1 promises is free, with a workaround. The economics specialist's partial-fill finding is a separate mechanism (IMD side, _payFees) and is reported on its own.

     Fix (preserving the design): do for PLEA what retainClaims does for IMD: in _applyCap (and, for symmetry, _closeWall, though that one runs inside the hook's own unlock where the PoolManager already holds the PLEA) mint the removed PLEA to the hook as ERC-6909 claims (poolManager.mint(address(this), _id(plea), pleaOut)), keep a retainPleaClaims counter, and burn/take/IPLEA.burn it in _rebalance; or take min(pleaOut, plea.balanceOf(poolManager)) now and mint the rest as claims.

     The hook is 218 bytes under EIP-170, so the smaller of the two variants is the one to pick.

     Invariants checked: 1, 19, 21.

     whole finding

     Sepolia settings (IMD as currency0; the same happens with PLEA as currency0 since only the take order matters), a fresh PoolManager.

     1. Right after the 90-minute window alice buys with 20,000 IMD exact-in through a plain swap-then-settle router; she receives about 660M PLEA and the market keeps about 156M.

     2. 20 days pass; bob's 1 IMD buy ratchets inventoryCap down to the holdings (about 156M; the cap travels (820M - 900k) / 15 per day, so 20 days are enough).

     3. The dead-man (33 hours with no verdict) has passed: plea.restricted() is false.

     4. alice sells her whole balance exact-in, no price limit, through the same router.

     Expected: the sale fills, 0.25% of the fill is burned, the excess over the cap is trimmed and its IMD goes to the wall claims.

     Actual: PoolManager.swap reverts with WrappedError(hook, afterSwap.selector, WrappedError(PLEA, transfer, ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, 156,340,207e18, 658,704,060e18))): the trim asks for 658.7M PLEA while the PoolManager holds 156.3M, because alice's 660M input is settled only after swap returns.

     Proof: test/scratch/TrimTakesUnsettledPlea.t.sol (self-contained, no fixture) fails on this code with that revert and passes once the trim keeps the removed PLEA as ERC-6909 claims or takes no more than the PoolManager holds (its post-fix assertions only require the sale to go through, the fee to burn and the market to sit at the cap).

     whole reproduction

   • lowA partially filled exact-input buy reverts when its ERC-20 IMD refund drains the PoolManager below the payouts: `_refund` runs before `_payFees`, whose claims test uses the pre-swap own IMD and never src/PleaHook.sol:600

     In afterSwap the unearned specified-side fee is refunded first (line 523, _refund), and _refund pays it as ERC-20 IMD taken from the PoolManager whenever the PoolManager's IMD balance covers it (line 647). _payFees then decides whether the 1.5% payouts are paid as claims with own < out && balanceOf(PM) < out, where own is this pool's IMD before the swap (market band + wall + retainClaims).

     The refund has already spent part of that same IMD, but own does not see it: when own >= out the claims path is skipped and the plain take of the owner / prize / cashback shares runs against a PoolManager that now holds less than out, so the IMD transfer reverts (ERC20InsufficientBalance) and the whole swap fails.

     The failure band is non-monotonic: the same price-limited buy succeeds when slightly smaller (the refund leaves enough) and when slightly larger (the refund itself exceeds the PoolManager's IMD and is paid as claims, the documented R2-A3-5 path). Invariant 19 and THREAT-MODEL section 3 say a partial fill of an exact-input trade pays on the fill and refunds the rest (as ERC-6909 claims whenever it exceeds the PoolManager's IMD); here it reverts instead.

     No funds are lost (the trade reverts atomically); the trader's own price-limited buy is refused while the pool's IMD is small and the PoolManager holds little other IMD (a fresh chain, Sepolia's TestIMD; on mainnet other IMD pools in the same PoolManager shrink the band).

     Low: an edge case of the trader's own limit with no loss.

     Fix: decide the refund's form and the payouts' form from one budget: compute whether the PoolManager can pay out + refund before refunding (pay the refund as claims when it cannot), or pay the payouts before the refund, or in _payFees test balanceOf(PM) < out alone once the flash-take case is already excluded by own.

     Invariants checked: 19 (partial fills), section 3's refund-as-claims rule.

     whole finding

     Default fixture (test/utils/Fixture.sol: Sepolia settings, past the launch window, the PoolManager holds only this pool's IMD). alice buys 20 IMD exact-in (PoolManager IMD = 20e18).

     Take as limit the sqrt price a 100 IMD buy reaches (snapshot, buy 100 IMD, read currentSqrtPriceX96, revert). carol calls BuyRouter.buyExactInLimit(g * 1e18, abi.encode(carol), limit) for g from 1000 to 1400 in steps of 20 (each in its own snapshot).

     Measured (test/scratch/RefundThenPayoutBand.t.sol): g = 1000..1160 succeed with the refund as ERC-20; g = 1180, 1200, 1220, 1240, 1260 revert with WrappedError(hook, afterSwap, WrappedError(IMD, transfer, ERC20InsufficientBalance(poolManager, balance, needed))) from poolManager.take inside _payImd (g = 1200: balance 0.098e18 left after the refund, 0.492e18 needed; g = 1220: balance 1 wei, 0.246e18 needed); g = 1280..1400 succeed again with the refund paid as ERC-6909 claims.

     Every successful size fills to the same limit (16,646,388 PLEA).

     Expected: every size fills to the limit and refunds the unearned fee (tokens or claims).

     Actual: a band of sizes reverts.
