• 1.mediumTwo unauthenticated checks can repeatedly lock a chosen smart wallet out of sign-insource/server/auth.ts:124

  export const CLAIM_CONTRACT=`UPDATE login_challenges SET called_at=?1 WHERE nonce=?2 AND called_at IS NULL
   AND (SELECT count(*) FROM (SELECT 1 FROM login_challenges WHERE net=?3 AND called_at>?4 LIMIT ?5))<?5
   AND (SELECT count(*) FROM (SELECT 1 FROM login_challenges WHERE address=?6 AND called_at>?4 LIMIT ?7))<?7`;

  CLAIM_CONTRACT charges the address-wide allowance of two checks per minute before ERC-1271 validates the signature. Any caller can request challenges for the public victim address and use its own flow cookies to consume both slots with invalid signatures. A valid signature from the owner on a different network is then refused before its eth_call and its challenge is burnt.

  An attacker timed ahead of the owner can renew this targeted denial with two challenges and two verifies per minute, within all configured local limits. Existing sessions and ECDSA sign-in remain unaffected. This is the acknowledged F-3 residual, merged from the economics, flow and permissions reports, but it is reproducible denial of sign-in for a player who needs ERC-1271.

  Remove the unauthenticated cross-network veto for a chosen address, for example by scoping this allowance to (address, network), while retaining network/location cost ceilings and assessing the resulting shared-capacity tradeoff.

  Executed against createWorker using the repository wallet-harness, actual viem and actual migrations on node:sqlite.

  Configure AUTH_LIMITER=20, CHAIN_LIMITER=20 and API_LIMITER=180 with windowLimiter.

  Deploy a fixture at C=0x5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a that has code and returns the ABI-encoded magic only for hashes/signatures genuinely signed by a synthetic owner; other inputs return 0xffffffff.

  A quiet owner challenge/verify from 198.51.100.20 returns 200.

  Advance 60,001 ms.

  From 203.0.113.9 request two separate challenges for C, preserve their individual flow cookies, and verify each with signature 0x12: both return 401 SIGNATURE_INVALID and set called_at.

  Within that minute a fresh challenge from 198.51.100.20 with its valid owner signature returns 429 CHAIN_BUSY and invalidated_at is set.

  Repeated for ten allowance windows: every pair returned 401/401 and every owner attempt 429.

  After a quiet window the owner returned 200.

  Expected isolation: strangers on another network should not spend this player-specific allowance.

  The attached specialist JavaScript test also ran, but its always-accepting wallet fixture was replaced for this validation; it is not a Solidity proof.

• 2.lowA refused index refresh deletes the cached candidates needed for the ownership fallbacksource/server/ownership.ts:138

      const entry:Entry<T>={at:now};
      entry.inflight=load().then(v=>{entry.value=v;return v;},e=>{if(this.map.get(key)===entry)this.map.delete(key);throw e;}).finally(()=>{entry.inflight=undefined;});
      this.map.set(key,entry);while(this.map.size>CACHE_LIMIT)this.map.delete(this.map.keys().next().value!);

  Cache.get replaces an expired entry with {at:now} and deletes that replacement when loading fails. Consequently proof() catches Limited at line 172 only after the last successful candidate list has disappeared; peek(address) cannot implement the documented roster-plus-stored-index fallback.

  Preconditions: a signed-in player owns a qualifying seat that the NFT index previously discovered but the IMD roster does not yet list for that owner, and a subsequent due index read is refused. The response becomes HTTP 200 with eligible=0, size=null and recheck=limited, removing owner mode and the Enter offer despite unchanged ownership. Shared chain:index capacity can be consumed by other signed-in addresses.

  Keep the last successful candidate value through a refused reload and re-prove those candidates with ownerOf; do not reuse an old ownership proof as the fix.

  Executed both supplied cache tests (the .t.sol attachment is JavaScript) against the unchanged Worker, actual viem, real migrations on in-memory node:sqlite and the repository fake RPC/roster.

  For a synthetic EOA A, set fakeChain owners[361]=A, fakeImd seats[361]=51320 and online=[361], but leave roster owners empty.

  Sign in A; GET /api/me/home?fresh=1 with CHAIN_LIMITER allowing returns seats=[361], eligible=1.

  Advance 31,000 ms and refuse chain:index; repeat.

  Expected: cached index candidate 361 remains and ownerOf still proves eligible=1 with recheck=limited.

  Actual: seats=[], eligible=0, size=null, recheck=limited.

  Independently repeated with ordinary /api/me/home after 300,001 ms with the same result.

  No file or production service was modified.

• 3.lowAn older home response body can restore owner mode after a newer check removed itsource/src/world/auth.ts:161

        if(r.ok){const home=await r.json() as MeHome;if(g!==this.gen)return;
          if(this.s.session&&home.address.toLowerCase()!==this.s.session.address){await this.restore();return;}  // another tab switched the cookie
          this.homeOkAt=this.now();this.set({home,checking:false});return;}

  refreshHome checks both gen and homeGen when response headers arrive, but only gen after awaiting the JSON body. Overlapping home requests for the same session share gen. A pre-transfer result whose body completes last can therefore overwrite a newer authoritative eligible=0 result and refresh homeOkAt.

  Preconditions: a still-live session, an earlier qualifying home response delayed in transit, and a newer overlapping check after the seat is sold or no longer qualifies. This restores the former holder's local owner mode, Enter gate and local move controls until a later check, despite the newer server decision. It does not issue a session, modify another player's server state or transfer assets.

  Recheck both generations after successful/error body parsing and immediately before committing state.

  Executed unchanged AuthClient, enterGate and createWorker with real SQLite migrations and viem.

  Sign in synthetic EOA A, with fixture seat 1 owned by A, registered and online; restore the client and confirm owner mode.

  Start R1=refreshHome(true,true).

  Obtain its genuine successful response from the Worker, retain the exact bytes and return its headers in a native Response with an open ReadableStream so r.json() waits.

  Set the chain fixture ownerOf(1)=B and advance 31,000 ms.

  Complete R2=refreshHome(true,true) normally: eligible=0, status=signedInNoHouse, enterGate(A's house)=sign-in.

  Then enqueue and close R1's unchanged body.

  Actual: eligible=1, status=owner and enterGate=ok; a direct fresh server GET still returns eligible=0.

  Expected: R1 is discarded as an obsolete homeGen.

  Only the provided geometry import stubs were loaded; no withheld rendering code was exercised.

• 4.lowCandidate truncation can discard the only qualifying seat and silently remove the housesource/server/ownership.ts:174

        const ids=[...candidates].sort(compareIds).slice(0,CANDIDATE_CAP),indexedAt=indexed?.at??0;

  proof() sorts every roster/index candidate by token ID and keeps only the first 256 before checking ownership or eligibility. Inactive/unregistered seats occupy the same slots as eligible seats, and truncation is not represented as an incomplete result.

  Preconditions: a player holds 255 lower-ID ineligible seats and a higher-ID qualifying seat; an unsolicited transfer of one additional lower-ID seat makes 257 candidates. The qualifying seat is never checked, so the player loses owner mode and the Enter offer even though its ownership and activity did not change. This is a conditional availability issue, requiring a large holder and an attacker able to transfer a lower-ID seat; it is not an ownership forgery.

  Check all eligibility-relevant candidates in bounded batches or return an explicit incomplete/unavailable result rather than a definitive zero when the cap is reached.

  Executed two controls through the unchanged Worker/Ownership/liveWorld code, actual viem Multicall encoding/decoding and real SQLite migrations.

  A synthetic EOA A owns token IDs 0..254 plus 1000.

  The correct roster and NFT index list those 256 seats; only seat 1000 is a registered agent and online.

  Use complete index pages of 100/100/56 entries.

  Sign in A and GET /api/me/home: 256 ownerOf checks include 1000, eligible=1, size=s.

  In a fresh otherwise identical Worker, additionally assign unregistered seat 255 to A in both correct upstream lists (pages 100/100/57).

  Actual: ownerOf checks exactly IDs 0..255, never 1000; eligible=0, size=null and recheck is absent.

  Expected: the unchanged qualifying seat still counts, or discovery is explicitly reported incomplete.

  This models the refreshed state after another holder transfers seat 255 to A; it does not require a malformed upstream answer.

• 5.lowSlow verify bodies backdate contract checks and bypass the rolling D1 budgetssource/server/auth.ts:431

    const now=(deps.now??Date.now)(),db=deps.db;

  accountRoute captures now before awaiting the rate limiter and request body. verify uses that stale timestamp for challenge expiry and the checked_at/called_at claims at lines 344 and 350. A client can start incomplete JSON uploads in separate windows, then finish them together, oldest first. Actual RPC checks occur in one current window but D1 records them in different old windows, bypassing the three-per-minute network and two-per-minute address shares.

  Expired-in-real-time challenges can also spend RPC capacity. The actual-time per-location limiter still caps calls, and the fresh-clock atomic consume prevents expired challenges from issuing sessions. Impact is increased ability for one network to consume smart-wallet verification capacity and deny others sign-in, not identity forgery.

  Refresh the clock after the body is read and when claiming budgets; consider a body-read deadline.

  Executed native streamed Requests against unchanged createWorker, actual viem, real SQLite migrations and repository RPC/limiter fixtures.

  At T request three challenges from 203.0.113.9, two for deployed fixture contract A=0x2222222222222222222222222222222222222222 and one for B=0x3333333333333333333333333333333333333333; both reject signatures.

  With each matching flow cookie, immediately start verify with Origin https://imdember.com and JSON {nonce,signature:"0x00"}, withholding its closing brace.

  At T+60,000 repeat.

  At T+70,000 close all six bodies in start order.

  All six return 401 and make eth_call during this same completion window; called_at contains three T timestamps and three T+60,000 timestamps.

  Expected: only three current-minute contract checks from the network.

  A seven-group variant completed at T+370,000 records 21 old claims, makes 21 code reads and 20 eth_calls, with 20 invalid-signature responses and one 429; another network then receives 429 CHAIN_BUSY before eth_call.

  No sessions are issued.

  These are handler-level streaming reproductions; production Cloudflare slow-upload buffering/timeouts were not exercised.

   SELECT ?1,?2,?3,?4,?5,?6,?7,?8 WHERE (SELECT count(*) FROM (SELECT 1 FROM login_challenges WHERE net=?8 AND issued_at>?9 LIMIT ?10))<?10
   AND (SELECT count(*) FROM (SELECT 1 FROM login_challenges WHERE address=?2 AND issued_at>?9 AND net=?8 LIMIT ?13))<?13

  The per-wallet cooldown counts all challenges naming (address, /24 or /48), regardless of which flow or person requested them. A neighbour in the same network can consume a chosen wallet's five slots without a signature. The same shared network counter lets two IPs consume all 30 challenge slots and deny sign-in to every other player in that prefix.

  Preconditions: attacker shares the victim's IPv4 /24 or IPv6 /48 (for example a campus/carrier network); targeted variant also needs the public victim address. Repeating within each rolling window maintains denial, while existing sessions remain valid. This is the documented F-5 network-sharing residual, merged from economics and flow, with localized availability impact.

  Narrow the unauthenticated wallet allowance to a flow or exact client key and consider fair admission for unused clients under the global cost ceiling; retain an explicit bound against network-wide abuse.

  Executed real createWorker and migrations with AUTH_LIMITER=windowLimiter(20).

  From 203.0.113.5, request five separate challenges for victim V within a minute: all 200.

  V's first request from 203.0.113.77 then returns 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY with Retry-After 60 (wallet cooldown), despite V having made no previous request.

  Separately send 15 unique-address challenges from each of 192.0.2.5 and 192.0.2.6: all 30 succeed.

  The first request from 192.0.2.77 then returns 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY (network share).

  Repeated both cases across three windows, advancing 60,001 ms each time; both victims were refused every time.

  Expected player isolation: a neighbour's unsigned challenges should not exhaust a specific player's personal allowance.

  All attack request counts stay below the configured per-IP limits and can be spread across the minute to meet the stated edge rule.

• 7.lowTwenty networks can continuously occupy the global challenge ceiling and deny all new sign-inssource/server/auth.ts:108

   AND (SELECT count(*) FROM (SELECT 1 FROM login_challenges WHERE issued_at>?11 LIMIT ?12))<?12`;

  The global 60-challenges-per-6-seconds valve admits on a first-come basis after the network checks. Twenty /24 networks spending their full 30/min shares can keep all global slots occupied, refusing even a new wallet from an otherwise unused network. With AUTH_LIMITER=20/min per IP this requires at least two IPs in each of those networks for the demonstrated schedule (40 IPs total), not the single-IP-per-network cost claimed by the specialist.

  No signing key or chain transaction is needed.

  Preconditions: that distributed client capacity and timely slot occupancy; impact is denial of new sign-ins worldwide while existing sessions continue. This is an explicit design residual, not a limiter bypass, so rated low. Consider admission fairness/reserved capacity for previously unused client networks under the global cost bound; merely increasing the cap raises cost without removing the shared-capacity mechanism.

  whole finding

  Executed 1,800 accepted challenge requests over 180 simulated seconds against unchanged createWorker and actual D1 migration SQL, using AUTH_LIMITER=windowLimiter(20).

  For i=0..1799, at T+i*100 ms POST a fresh address from IP 203.0.(i%20).(1+(floor(i/20)%2)).

  This sends 10 requests/second globally, 30/min per /24, and 15/min per IP.

  After the first 60 writes, every five seconds at T+i*100+1 ms a victim on unused network 198.51.100.0/24 requests its own challenge.

  All 35 victim probes return 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY; every attacker request succeeds.

  Expected availability under cross-network abuse: unused players retain a route to start authentication.

  Actual: the address/network checks allow the victim but the global count rejects it.

  The schedule also stays below the stated edge rule per IP, although live Cloudflare bindings/WAF were not exercised.

  This corrects the original specialist's inconsistent request-rate arithmetic.

  When the shared chain:index budget refuses a first discovery and the roster has no seats for the player, /api/me/home returns seats=[], eligible=0, block=null, recheck=limited without performing a chain read. statusOf treats this as signedInNoHouse, and this branch labels it as verified on-chain absence. The limited notice at line 115 is restricted to owner mode and is therefore hidden for this case.

  Preconditions: roster lag for a genuine seat owner and exhausted index capacity; twenty throwaway EOA sessions can consume that per-location allowance without owning seats. The player is incorrectly told that ownership was disproved and loses owner controls while discovery is unavailable. Handle limited/incomplete discovery explicitly in the non-owner state and render an unavailable/retry message rather than a definitive no-seat claim.

  This is independent of the cached-candidate loss: it reproduces on the player's very first discovery.

  V signs in from another network and requests /api/me/home?fresh=1 in the same minute.

  Actual: HTTP 200, seats=[], eligible=0, block=null, recheck=limited, and zero additional chain requests.

  Restoring the real AuthClient yields signedInNoHouse; real seatRows returns [].

  Executing the exact me?text(...) expression extracted from WalletPanel.tsx:132 with this state returns "Checked on chain: this wallet holds no IMD seat right now."

  The owner-only limited notice is unreachable.

2. Audit economicsAgent #2found 2 medium, 2 low, 1 info

   The review is complete and the findings file is written and validated: every path, line and snippet in .imd-findings.json matches the tree, and no repository file was changed. The scratch tests live only in the temp copy of source/ where I ran the suite (117 of 120 pass here, the same 3 withheld-geometry failures as the recorded run).

   Findings recorded (5)

   • Medium, source/server/ownership.ts:172. When the per-location chain:index budget refuses an NFT-index read, the stored index answer is not used as the comment, the ownership doc and the test name all claim. The cache replaces the entry before loading and deletes it on failure, so peek is always empty. A seat that only the index named (a purchase IMD's roster does not list yet) drops out of the owner's home, and owner mode and Enter are lost. One IP with 20 throwaway ECDSA sign-ins a minute keeps a whole Cloudflare location's budget at zero. Reproduced with a node test that fails on both the fresh=1 and the 5-minute re-check path.
   • Medium, source/server/auth.ts:124. The per-address ERC-1271 share of 2 checks a minute is spent by whoever requests challenges for that address. Two garbage verifies a minute from one IP hold any specific smart-contract wallet at 429 CHAIN_BUSY for as long as they run, and its correct signature is burnt each time. The team's comment calls this a slowdown of that address; the reproduction shows ten minutes of ten refusals with no other sign-in route for a contract account.
   • Low, auth.ts:98. Twenty client networks at 30 challenges a minute each keep the global 60-per-6-second valve shut for everyone. Documented as the emergency ceiling, listed because it is reachable by one person.
   • Low, auth.ts:107. The wallet cooldown is keyed by the attacker-supplied address and the requester's /24. A neighbour in the same /24 or CGNAT pool refuses a named player's sign-in with 5 requests a minute. Accepted in the team's test; listed as a targeted availability path.
   • Info, auth.ts:292. The relayed-message path: a challenge for any address, signed by its holder on a look-alike page within 5 minutes, yields a session in the requester's browser. Inherent to SIWE and stated as a known limit; recorded so the trace is on file.

   Checked and found sound, no finding. Signature verification re-reads the stored message and pins domain, URI, chain, version, statement, Issued At and Expiration Time; ERC-6492 is refused; ERC-1271 needs code and the exact 32-byte word; one keyed check per challenge, and every refusal that could be retried burns the challenge except the 503 and lost-race cases the design states. Session issuance is atomic, revocation is never undone, logout-all acts only for the caller's live session, Origin plus JSON-only POSTs cover CSRF. Limiters fail closed where stated. The home route takes its address from the session only and ownerOf is the sole proof; the client grants owner mode and Enter only from that answer for the session's own address. The page-side check admits only the exact 11-line message for the connected account and nonce before the single personal_sign. No transaction, approval or typed-data request exists in the client.

   Could not check. Live Cloudflare configuration (WAF rule, bindings, applied migrations), the deployed bundle hash, the withheld house geometry and interior code, and real wallet behaviour on domain mismatch. The Solidity-specific parts of the pinned checklists (token behaviour, reentrancy, rounding, upgradeability, ERC compliance) do not apply to this codebase and were not forced; the Economic Security, Invariant and Flow Gap lenses were applied to the rate-limit budgets, the caches and the sign-in and ownership flows instead.

   • mediumRefused chain:index budget discards the stored NFT-index answer: the documented roster-plus-stored-answer fallback never happens, so an index-only seat drops out of the owner's home (owner mode and Ensource/server/ownership.ts:172

     Invariant claimed by the code comment (ownership.ts:155-160), by OWNERSHIP_AND_HOMES.md section 1 and by the test name at tests/ownership.test.mjs:101: when the CHAIN_LIMITER key chain:index refuses a due index read, the candidates are IMD's roster plus any stored index answer, and ownerOf still proves them.

     Actual: Cache.get (ownership.ts:135-142) replaces the map entry with a fresh {at} object before load() runs (line 140 this.map.set(key,entry)), and on failure deletes it (line 139). The previous value is therefore gone by the time the catch at line 172 calls this.candidates.peek(address), which returns undefined. The only remaining candidates are seats that swarm.owners lists for the address.

     A seat the roster does not list for this owner (a seat bought after IMD's last roster refresh, or any roster lag) disappears from /api/me/home, eligible falls, size becomes null, the client's statusOf() leaves 'owner' and homeEntry.enterGate returns 'sign-in'. The existing test at tests/ownership.test.mjs:101 does not catch this because the stored answer (#921) is also in the roster.

     Attacker economics (Economic Security lens, 'starve shared capacity'): chain:index is one counter per Cloudflare location (20/min, wrangler.jsonc CHAIN_LIMITER) shared by every session; every first /api/me/home of a new session spends one unit.

     AUTH_LIMITER allows 20 challenges and 20 verifies a minute per IP and each throwaway key needs one challenge, so one IP with 20 fresh keys a minute (ECDSA, no chain read, no gas) keeps the location's budget at zero indefinitely; alternatively 10 sessions polling ?fresh=1 every 30 s.

     Victim precondition: an owner in that location whose counting seat is not (yet) in swarm.owners for their address. Impact on the player: loss of owner mode and of 'Enter your home' for as long as the attack runs, with the panel showing 'limited' rather than an error.

     Fix: keep the previous value visible during and after a failed reload (e.g. copy hit.value onto the new entry, or on failure restore the old entry instead of deleting), so peek() returns the last good index answer; add a test where the stored answer names a seat the roster does not.

   • mediumTargeted denial of sign-in for any one smart-contract wallet: two garbage verifies a minute from a single IP hold the victim address at 429 CHAIN_BUSY indefinitely (ERC1271_ADDRESS_SHARE=2 is spent bysource/server/auth.ts:124

     CLAIM_CONTRACT (auth.ts:124-126) allows at most ERC1271_ADDRESS_SHARE=2 contract checks per rolling minute per challenge address, counted over every network. The address is chosen by whoever POSTs /api/auth/challenge (any address, no session), so the counter is spent by an attacker, not by the wallet's owner.

     A garbage 65-byte signature for the victim's contract address fails ECDSA recovery, claims the challenge, reads code (or skips it for a 'known' ERC-1271 wallet), takes one of the two address slots, spends one eth_call and is burnt with 401. When the real owner verifies a correct signature in the same minute, gate.contract() finds the address at its share, returns false, verifySignature returns 'busy', and the owner's challenge is burnt with 429 CHAIN_BUSY (auth.ts:356).

     Attacker cost per minute: 2 challenges + 2 verifies from one IP (within AUTH_LIMITER 20/min per IP, WALLET_CHALLENGE_BUDGET 5/min per address+network, NETWORK_CHALLENGE_BUDGET 30/min, ERC1271_NETWORK_SHARE 3/min) and 2 of the location's 20/min chain:erc1271(:known) units; no gas, no key.

     The comment at auth.ts:60-62 and README.md F-3 record this as accepted ('slows only that address'); the reproduction shows it is not a slowdown but a lockout for as long as the attacker runs (10 minutes, 10 refusals in the test), and a smart-wallet player has no other way to sign in (SIWE.md: ECDSA does not apply to a contract account).

     Suggested fix that keeps the budget semantics: only count checks that could have been the owner's, e.g. spend the per-address share on a signature that is at least well-formed for that wallet, or key the address share by (address, network) like the challenge cooldown and keep the per-network 3/min as the cross-network bound, or let a correct signature that fails only on the address share wait its minute without burning the challenge.

     INSERT_CHALLENGE (auth.ts:105-108) refuses every challenge once 60 rows were written in the last 6 s regardless of who wrote them (the L5 'emergency ceiling').

     Each IPv4 /24 or IPv6 /48 may write 30 a minute, so CHALLENGE_BUDGET_NETWORKS = 20 networks sustaining 30 challenges a minute each (one request every 2 s per network, well under the WAF's 20 per 10 s per IP and AUTH_LIMITER's 20/min per IP) keep every 6 s slice full, and every other player's POST /api/auth/challenge answers 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY with reason 'global'.

     Nothing is signed, no key or gas is needed, each request is a 100-byte JSON POST; 20 /24s means 20 cheap VPS instances in different subnets or a few tunnel-broker /48s. The design is documented (auth.ts:38-47, README F-5) and the team's test at tests/auth.test.mjs:347-358 exercises the fill with two networks for one slice; it is reported here because the assignment lists denial of sign-in as in-scope availability and the cap is low enough to be reached by an individual.

     A fair alternative that keeps the D1 cost bound: raise the valve well above the sum of expected legitimate traffic (it is a cost ceiling, not a security control) and let the per-network and per-wallet layers do the fairness work, or make refusals under the valve prefer networks that have not spent their own share.

   • lowPer-wallet challenge cooldown is keyed by (attacker-supplied address, client /24): a neighbour in the same /24 or CGNAT pool locks a specific player's address out of sign-in with 5 requests a minute, source/server/auth.ts:107

     The L2 cooldown counts challenges per (address, net) where address is whatever the POST body names and net is worker/app.ts networkKey (IPv4 /24, IPv6 /48). Any client inside the victim's /24 can POST /api/auth/challenge {address: victim} 5 times a minute; the victim's own request from the same /24 then fails the count at line 107 and gets 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY (reason 'wallet') for as long as the neighbour keeps going; the victim has no way to tell why.

     The L1 share on line 106 (30 per /24 per minute) lets two hosts in the /24 (20/min each under AUTH_LIMITER) refuse every neighbour's challenge with reason 'network'. On IPv4 mobile carriers and campus networks a /24 is shared by hundreds to thousands of users, and CGNAT means AUTH_LIMITER's per-IP key is shared too.

     The comments (auth.ts:29-31, 66-67) and tests/auth.test.mjs:343 ('a player inside that /24 waits for its minute') accept this trade-off; it is recorded because the assignment lists denial of sign-in as availability and the trigger is an unprivileged neighbour. Possible narrowing without dropping the layer: bind the wallet cooldown to the flow cookie or the exact IP rather than the /24, or exempt a request whose address has an open challenge from the same flow.

     Answering the assignment's question about relayed messages: the server-side code cannot distinguish a signature the victim made on imdember.com from one they made on a look-alike page that shows the same 11-line text.

     An attacker's browser holds the flow cookie for a challenge it requested for the victim's address; the message names imdember.com, chain 1 and a 5-minute expiry; if the victim signs it in a wallet that does not compare the SIWE domain with the requesting origin (or ignores the warning), the attacker's verify passes ECDSA recovery, the flow cookie matches, and the attacker holds a 7-day session for the victim's address: read-only home view, owner mode and 'Enter your home' for the victim's house.

     No funds move (nothing in this code asks for a transaction or approval, verified: the client's only wallet write is personal_sign in src/world/auth.ts:207 after siwe.ts checkSignInMessage). This is the standard SIWE phishing model, stated as a known limit in the assignment and in walletView.ts:41-44; no code change is proposed beyond what exists (domain in the message, the pre-sign summary, 5-minute expiry, logout-all).

   • lowSlow verify uploads backdate budget claims and defeat per-network ERC-1271 limitssource/server/auth.ts:431

     accountRoute samples now before awaiting the limiter and the client-controlled request body. verify then uses that old value both for challenge expiry (line 325) and for checked_at/called_at and their rolling-window cutoffs (lines 344 and 350). An unauthenticated HTTP client can start several small JSON uploads in different minute windows and complete them together, oldest first. The actual contract checks occur together, but D1 records them in different past windows.

     This bypasses the 3/minute network share and 2/minute contract-address share; even challenges already expired in real time can trigger RPC. One network targeting two deployed contracts without an existing ERC-1271 session record can therefore consume the 20/minute first-time ERC-1271 location budget in a burst, temporarily denying legitimate smart-wallet sign-in at that location.

     The outer location cap still works, ECDSA sign-in is unaffected, and the final fresh-clock consume prevents expired challenges from issuing sessions. Refresh the clock after reading the body and use current timestamps when checking expiry and claiming each budget; bound body-read duration as an additional defense.

     At T+70,000 ms finish the first group, then the second.

     Actual: all six pass CLAIM_CONTRACT and reach eth_call in the same real minute; called_at contains three T values and three T+60,000 values.

     Expected: at most three contract checks from that network in the current rolling minute.

     For the location-wide denial, repeat three uploads at T+k*60,000 for k=0..6, then finish all 21 at T+370,000 in chronological groups.

     The actual handler with real SQLite migrations produced 20 responses with 401 SIGNATURE_INVALID and one with 429 CHAIN_BUSY, 21 eth_getCode calls, and 20 eth_call calls at the completion time; no sessions were created.

     A/B have code and no existing ERC-1271 sessions; they need not accept the signature.

     A fresh verify from another network at the same completion time then returned 429 CHAIN_BUSY before its contract call, confirming the availability impact.

     Each group stays within challenge, wallet and incoming verify limits.

     Use independent flow cookies and, if needed, periodic whitespace within the 2,048-byte body limit.

   • lowA delayed home response restores owner mode after a newer ownership check removes itsource/src/world/auth.ts:161

     refreshHome checks both the account generation g and home-request generation hg when response headers arrive, but checks only g after awaiting the response body. Two overlapping home reads for the same session therefore allow an older body to overwrite a newer authoritative result.

     Preconditions: a still-valid session previously owned an eligible seat, that seat is transferred or ceases to qualify, and an older home response body arrives after the newer check completes. The older eligible>0 result restores statusOf='owner', ownerAddress and local home controls, and homeOkAt is reset to the arrival time. This revives local owner mode after the server has already reported no eligible seats; it does not bypass server authentication or transfer assets.

     Recheck both g and hg after every awaited body/error read, immediately before committing state.

     Use the actual AuthClient with an injected fetch and a fixed clock, a live session for address 0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111, and an initial /api/me/home response containing that address, eligible:1, size:'s'.

     Start refreshHome(true) A, return a 200 Response backed by a ReadableStream, but hold its JSON body containing eligible:1.

     Let A pass the check at line 160 and wait inside r.json().

     Advance the fixture clock by 31,000 ms to allow the server ownership cache to expire and complete refreshHome(true) B with the same address, eligible:0, size:null (the only qualifying seat was sold).

     Assert statusOf(client.state)==='signedInNoHouse'.

     Now enqueue and close A's older body and await A.

     Actual: eligible becomes 1 and statusOf becomes 'owner' again.

     Expected: B's eligible:0 remains authoritative and A is discarded because its hg is obsolete.

     This ordering was reproduced with the unchanged AuthClient and native Response/ReadableStream, with HTTP responses supplied by a fixture.

     The analogous error-body branch at line 164 also omits the hg recheck.

     proof() sorts all roster/index candidates and retains only the lowest 256 token IDs before checking ownership and eligibility. Ineligible seats consume the same capacity as eligible seats, so a valid higher-ID seat can be discarded and home() returns a definitive eligible:0, size:null without an incomplete marker.

     Preconditions: a player owns 255 lower-ID unregistered/inactive seats and one higher-ID eligible seat; an attacker can transfer one more lower-ID seat to that address. That unsolicited addition removes the player's owner mode and Enter offer despite unchanged ownership and activity of their qualifying seat. All values fit the stated 2,000-seat supply; no large-integer overflow or malicious upstream response is needed.

     The documented cap bounds work but does not make truncated ownership a complete result. Preserve eligibility-relevant candidates when bounding work, check them in bounded batches, and explicitly distinguish incomplete discovery from a definitive no-house result.

     Ownership.home(V, req) returns eligible:1, size:'s'.

4. Audit flowAgent #47found 3 low

   Review complete. The findings file at the repository root holds three substantiated low-severity defects and nothing higher.

   Outcome. I found no path in this code to sign in as an address without its key, to keep or revive a session after logout or expiry, to end another address's sessions, to obtain owner rights for seats or a house the session address does not hold, or to make the page hand the wallet anything but the server-built sign-in text it has already checked line by line. The two stated limits remain as the team describes them: a contract wallet whose isValidSignature accepts anything can be signed in by anyone, and a phishing page can relay a real message to the wallet. All three findings are availability or presentation defects in sign-in and the home view, which the brief puts in scope.

   Findings written to .imd-findings.json

   • Low, source/server/auth.ts:126. Two junk verifies a minute from one IP lock any ERC-1271 wallet address out of sign-in. The per-address contract share counts strangers' failed checks, so the real owner's valid signature gets 429 CHAIN_BUSY and its challenge is burnt, every minute, indefinitely. Reproduced against the real handler with a Safe fake that only honors its owner's key. The team lists this residual as accepted under F-3, but it is a complete targeted lockout at near-zero cost, so I re-reported it with a fix that keeps the cost bound.
   • Low, source/server/auth.ts:106. One client can deny sign-in to every player sharing its /24. Two IPs at fifteen challenges a minute fill the network share, and five asks for one address from that network spend that player's cooldown. Sessions already issued keep working. Documented as the F-5 trade-off, but carrier NAT makes the co-tenant case common.
   • Low, source/src/world/WalletPanel.tsx:132. When the NFT-index budget is refused and IMD's roster does not list the address, the server answers 200 with no seats, no block and recheck limited, and the panel prints "Checked on chain: this wallet holds no IMD seat right now" with no chain read made. The busy note only renders in the owner branch. Twenty throwaway sign-ins a minute from one IP put every new buyer at that location into this state.

   • lowTwo junk verifies a minute from one IP lock any ERC-1271 wallet address out of sign-in (per-address contract share counts strangers’ failed checks)source/server/auth.ts:126

     CLAIM_CONTRACT (server/auth.ts:124-126, bound at :350 with ERC1271_ADDRESS_SHARE=2 from :100) refuses the contract check when the address already has 2 rows with called_at in the last minute, counted across ALL networks and regardless of whether those checks were made by the wallet’s owner or by a stranger with a random signature.

     Anyone can obtain a challenge for any address (POST /api/auth/challenge only needs the address) and submit garbage to POST /api/auth/verify with the flow cookie they were just given. Each such junk verify reaches CLAIM_CONTRACT (the address has code), writes called_at, and only then fails at eth_call (401).

     Two per minute from a single IP therefore keep the share full; the real owner’s verify (a valid signature from another network, first-time or “known”) then returns 429 CHAIN_BUSY and, per the burn-on-refusal rule (:356), its challenge is invalidated, so every retry needs a new challenge and meets the same refusal.

     Preconditions: attacker knows the victim’s smart-wallet address (public: it is the seat owner on IMD’s roster); cost 2 challenges + 2 verifies per minute from one IP, far under AUTH_LIMITER (20/min), the /24 shares and the edge WAF rule (20 per 10 s). Impact on the player: a Safe / smart-account holder cannot sign in (no owner mode, no “Enter your home”, no “Move”) for as long as the attacker keeps two requests a minute going, indefinitely; EOAs are untouched.

     ECDSA wallets are not affected. The team lists this residual as accepted in README (F-3, “address” reason) but it is a complete, targeted, near-zero-cost denial of sign-in for a class of players.

     Minimal fix that keeps the cost bound: key the per-address share by (address, net) like WALLET_CHALLENGE_BUDGET (a stranger’s network then spends only its own share of that address), and/or count only checks that did NOT produce a session against the address, keeping CHAIN_LIMITER (per location, 20/min) and the per-network share as the Alchemy-cost bound.

   • lowOne client can deny sign-in to every player that shares its /24 (network challenge share and wallet cooldown count strangers’ challenges)source/server/auth.ts:106

     INSERT_CHALLENGE (server/auth.ts:105-108) refuses a challenge when the client’s network (IPv4 /24, IPv6 /48; worker/app.ts networkKey) already has NETWORK_CHALLENGE_BUDGET=30 challenges in the last minute (line 106), or when the requested address already has WALLET_CHALLENGE_BUDGET=5 from that network (line 107). Both counts include challenges made by other people. Carrier-grade NAT, campus and office networks put many unrelated players behind one /24 (often behind one IP).

     Two IPs on such a network sending 15 challenges a minute each (under AUTH_LIMITER’s 20/min per IP and the WAF’s 20 per 10 s) fill the /24 share every minute, so every neighbour’s POST /api/auth/challenge answers 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY (the client shows “Sign-in is busy”) for as long as the sender keeps going; a single IP can instead lock one specific neighbour’s address with 5 challenges a minute (line 107). Sessions already issued keep working; only new sign-in is denied.

     The team documents this as the F-5 trade-off (SIWE.md §8) but describes the wallet cooldown as one “nobody elsewhere can use”, which is only true across networks: inside the same /24 any host can use it against the key holder.

     Impact: denial of sign-in for co-tenants of a network, indefinitely, at 30 requests/min.

     Minimal fix preserving the cost bound: treat the /24 share as soft while the global valve (line 108, CHALLENGE_BUDGET) is well under its cap, e.g. admit a challenge over the network share when fewer than half the 6-s global slots are used and the requesting flow has no open challenge; and key the wallet cooldown to (address, flow) or (address, /32) rather than (address, /24) so a neighbour cannot spend a specific player’s five.

   • lowA refused NFT-index budget is shown to the player as “Checked on chain: this wallet holds no IMD seat” although no chain read was madesource/src/world/WalletPanel.tsx:132

     When the per-location chain:index budget refuses (CHAIN_LIMITER, 20/min per Cloudflare location, or the binding throwing) and IMD’s roster does not list the address, server/ownership.ts:175 answers 200 with seats [], eligible 0, block null and recheck “limited”: nothing was proven or disproven.

     The client then derives status signedInNoHouse (src/world/auth.ts:55 looks only at eligible), and WalletPanel.tsx:132 prints “鏈上核實：這個錢包目前沒有 IMD 席位 / Checked on chain: this wallet holds no IMD seat right now.” because me is set; the “index is busy” note (line 115) is rendered only inside the st==='owner' branch, so it never appears here.

     The brief’s rule that a failure must not read as “owns nothing” is broken at the presentation layer for exactly the players the index exists for: buyers whose seat IMD’s roster does not list yet (roster lag after a transfer).

     Reachability by an attacker: 20 throwaway sign-ins a minute from one IP (each new address’s first GET /api/me/home spends one chain:index unit) exhaust the location’s budget; every new-buyer at that location then sees the false “checked on chain” statement and gets no owner mode while it lasts.

     Fix: in WalletPanel treat me.recheck==='limited' && me.block===null (or seats.length===0 with limited) as “could not check the NFT index right now, try Check again” and show the limited note in the signedInNoHouse branch too; optionally have statusOf map that state to ownershipUnavailable so Enter/Move gates and the chip agree.

   • lowAn older home response can restore owner mode after a newer ownership check removed itsource/src/world/auth.ts:161

     AuthClient.refreshHome checks homeGen before awaiting r.json(), but checks only gen after the body resolves. Two home refreshes do not change gen. Consequently, an older successful response whose body finishes last overwrites a newer ownership result and resets homeOkAt to the current time.

     Preconditions: a signed-in former seat holder has overlapping refreshes, with a pre-transfer response body delayed until after a post-transfer response has reported eligible=0. The client then grants ownerAddress and the Enter gate again for the former holder's house, although the more recent proof denied eligibility. Impact is limited to the World client's owner UI, interior entry and local moves; it does not forge a server session or transfer assets.

     Check both g===this.gen and hg===this.homeGen after every await that precedes a state update (including response-body/error parsing).

     Reproduced with Node v24.21.0 against the unchanged real Worker, AuthClient and enterGate, the repository wallet-harness.mjs, synthetic EOA keys, and real migrations on node:sqlite.

     Load the two supplied TESTS/stubs only to resolve withheld geometry imports (no geometry is exercised).

     Use fakeImd({seats:{1:"50001"},owners:[zeroAddress,A],online:[1]}) and fakeChain({owners:{1:A}}), where A and B are different synthetic accounts.

     Sign in as A, then client.restore(): owner mode.

     Start R1=client.refreshHome(true).

     Forward it to the real handler, preserve its exact successful response bytes, and expose its headers through a Response backed by a ReadableStream whose body is held open.

     Wait until the client has entered r.json().

     Change chain.state.owners["1"] to B and advance the harness clock by 31,000 ms.

     Complete R2=client.refreshHome(true) normally: observed status=signedInNoHouse, seats=[], enterGate(state,{owner:A},now)=sign-in.

     Enqueue R1's preserved bytes and close its stream.

     Expected: R1 is discarded and R2 remains authoritative.

     Actual: status=owner, seats=["1"], enterGate(state,{owner:A},now)=ok.

     A subsequent direct GET /api/me/home still returns eligible=0.

     This requires an overlapping pre-transfer response body delayed past a post-transfer refresh; no signature, message, response content or database row was forged.

   • lowTwo unauthenticated signature checks can deny a chosen smart wallet sign-in across networks (known F-3 residual)source/server/auth.ts:124

     CLAIM_CONTRACT charges its two-per-minute, address-wide allowance before ERC-1271 validates the signature. The address is freely supplied to /api/auth/challenge, so a caller with no session and no authority over a contract wallet can consume that wallet's allowance. A legitimate player from another network is then rejected with 429 CHAIN_BUSY before their valid signature reaches the contract, and their challenge is burnt.

     Preconditions: the victim must require ERC-1271; the attacker knows the public contract address and can obtain its own challenge flow cookies. Two invalid checks per rolling minute can keep this particular wallet from signing in when timed ahead of the player. This remains below the configured per-IP, per-network and per-location limits and the stated edge limit.

     Existing sessions and ECDSA sign-in are unaffected. This is the already acknowledged, accepted residual of F-3, independently reproduced here, not a newly discovered bypass of signature verification. Removing an unauthenticated global per-victim veto, while retaining network/global cost caps, would prevent this particular targeted lockout; doing so trades against the broader budget-exhaustion risk described by the team.

     From 192.0.2.1, twice POST /api/auth/challenge {address:C}, keep each returned flow cookie, and POST /api/auth/verify {nonce:thatNonce,signature:"0x12"}.

     Both return 401, but write called_at for C.

     Within 60 seconds, from 198.51.100.1 obtain an independent challenge for C and submit a signature that this contract accepts.

     Expected isolation: an unauthenticated outsider cannot exhaust another network's ability to authenticate as C with a valid signature.

     Actual: HTTP 429 {"error":"CHAIN_BUSY"}, log reason="address", and only the two attacker eth_call requests have occurred; the legitimate signature is not checked.

     Advance the clock 60,001 ms and obtain a fresh challenge with a valid signature: HTTP 200.

   • mediumTwo unauthenticated checks can repeatedly lock a chosen smart wallet out of sign-insource/server/auth.ts:124

     CLAIM_CONTRACT charges the address-wide allowance of two checks per minute before ERC-1271 validates the signature. Any caller can request challenges for the public victim address and use its own flow cookies to consume both slots with invalid signatures. A valid signature from the owner on a different network is then refused before its eth_call and its challenge is burnt.

     An attacker timed ahead of the owner can renew this targeted denial with two challenges and two verifies per minute, within all configured local limits. Existing sessions and ECDSA sign-in remain unaffected. This is the acknowledged F-3 residual, merged from the economics, flow and permissions reports, but it is reproducible denial of sign-in for a player who needs ERC-1271.

     Remove the unauthenticated cross-network veto for a chosen address, for example by scoping this allowance to (address, network), while retaining network/location cost ceilings and assessing the resulting shared-capacity tradeoff.

   • lowCandidate truncation can discard the only qualifying seat and silently remove the housesource/server/ownership.ts:174

     proof() sorts every roster/index candidate by token ID and keeps only the first 256 before checking ownership or eligibility. Inactive/unregistered seats occupy the same slots as eligible seats, and truncation is not represented as an incomplete result.

     Preconditions: a player holds 255 lower-ID ineligible seats and a higher-ID qualifying seat; an unsolicited transfer of one additional lower-ID seat makes 257 candidates. The qualifying seat is never checked, so the player loses owner mode and the Enter offer even though its ownership and activity did not change. This is a conditional availability issue, requiring a large holder and an attacker able to transfer a lower-ID seat; it is not an ownership forgery.

     Check all eligibility-relevant candidates in bounded batches or return an explicit incomplete/unavailable result rather than a definitive zero when the cap is reached.

     Executed two controls through the unchanged Worker/Ownership/liveWorld code, actual viem Multicall encoding/decoding and real SQLite migrations.

     A synthetic EOA A owns token IDs 0..254 plus 1000.

Actual RPC checks occur in one current window but D1 records them in different old windows, bypassing the three-per-minute network and two-per-minute address shares.

     Expired-in-real-time challenges can also spend RPC capacity. The actual-time per-location limiter still caps calls, and the fresh-clock atomic consume prevents expired challenges from issuing sessions. Impact is increased ability for one network to consume smart-wallet verification capacity and deny others sign-in, not identity forgery.

     Refresh the clock after the body is read and when claiming budgets; consider a body-read deadline.

     Executed native streamed Requests against unchanged createWorker, actual viem, real SQLite migrations and repository RPC/limiter fixtures.

     At T request three challenges from 203.0.113.9, two for deployed fixture contract A=0x2222222222222222222222222222222222222222 and one for B=0x3333333333333333333333333333333333333333; both reject signatures.

     With each matching flow cookie, immediately start verify with Origin https://imdember.com and JSON {nonce,signature:"0x00"}, withholding its closing brace.

     At T+60,000 repeat.

     At T+70,000 close all six bodies in start order.

     All six return 401 and make eth_call during this same completion window; called_at contains three T timestamps and three T+60,000 timestamps.

     Expected: only three current-minute contract checks from the network.

     A seven-group variant completed at T+370,000 records 21 old claims, makes 21 code reads and 20 eth_calls, with 20 invalid-signature responses and one 429; another network then receives 429 CHAIN_BUSY before eth_call.

     No sessions are issued.

     These are handler-level streaming reproductions; production Cloudflare slow-upload buffering/timeouts were not exercised.

   • lowUnverified challenges let a network neighbour spend a player's sign-in allowancesource/server/auth.ts:106

     The per-wallet cooldown counts all challenges naming (address, /24 or /48), regardless of which flow or person requested them. A neighbour in the same network can consume a chosen wallet's five slots without a signature. The same shared network counter lets two IPs consume all 30 challenge slots and deny sign-in to every other player in that prefix.

     Preconditions: attacker shares the victim's IPv4 /24 or IPv6 /48 (for example a campus/carrier network); targeted variant also needs the public victim address. Repeating within each rolling window maintains denial, while existing sessions remain valid. This is the documented F-5 network-sharing residual, merged from economics and flow, with localized availability impact.

     Narrow the unauthenticated wallet allowance to a flow or exact client key and consider fair admission for unused clients under the global cost ceiling; retain an explicit bound against network-wide abuse.

     Executed real createWorker and migrations with AUTH_LIMITER=windowLimiter(20).

     From 203.0.113.5, request five separate challenges for victim V within a minute: all 200.

     V's first request from 203.0.113.77 then returns 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY with Retry-After 60 (wallet cooldown), despite V having made no previous request.

     Separately send 15 unique-address challenges from each of 192.0.2.5 and 192.0.2.6: all 30 succeed.

     The first request from 192.0.2.77 then returns 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY (network share).

     Repeated both cases across three windows, advancing 60,001 ms each time; both victims were refused every time.

     Expected player isolation: a neighbour's unsigned challenges should not exhaust a specific player's personal allowance.

     All attack request counts stay below the configured per-IP limits and can be spread across the minute to meet the stated edge rule.

   • lowTwenty networks can continuously occupy the global challenge ceiling and deny all new sign-inssource/server/auth.ts:108

     The global 60-challenges-per-6-seconds valve admits on a first-come basis after the network checks. Twenty /24 networks spending their full 30/min shares can keep all global slots occupied, refusing even a new wallet from an otherwise unused network. With AUTH_LIMITER=20/min per IP this requires at least two IPs in each of those networks for the demonstrated schedule (40 IPs total), not the single-IP-per-network cost claimed by the specialist.

     No signing key or chain transaction is needed.

     Preconditions: that distributed client capacity and timely slot occupancy; impact is denial of new sign-ins worldwide while existing sessions continue. This is an explicit design residual, not a limiter bypass, so rated low. Consider admission fairness/reserved capacity for previously unused client networks under the global cost bound; merely increasing the cap raises cost without removing the shared-capacity mechanism.

     whole finding

     Executed 1,800 accepted challenge requests over 180 simulated seconds against unchanged createWorker and actual D1 migration SQL, using AUTH_LIMITER=windowLimiter(20).

     For i=0..1799, at T+i*100 ms POST a fresh address from IP 203.0.(i%20).(1+(floor(i/20)%2)).

     This sends 10 requests/second globally, 30/min per /24, and 15/min per IP.

     After the first 60 writes, every five seconds at T+i*100+1 ms a victim on unused network 198.51.100.0/24 requests its own challenge.

     All 35 victim probes return 429 SIGN_IN_BUSY; every attacker request succeeds.

     Expected availability under cross-network abuse: unused players retain a route to start authentication.

     Actual: the address/network checks allow the victim but the global count rejects it.

     The schedule also stays below the stated edge rule per IP, although live Cloudflare bindings/WAF were not exercised.

     This corrects the original specialist's inconsistent request-rate arithmetic.

   • lowA refused ownership discovery is displayed as a successful on-chain no-seat resultsource/src/world/WalletPanel.tsx:132

     When the shared chain:index budget refuses a first discovery and the roster has no seats for the player, /api/me/home returns seats=[], eligible=0, block=null, recheck=limited without performing a chain read. statusOf treats this as signedInNoHouse, and this branch labels it as verified on-chain absence. The limited notice at line 115 is restricted to owner mode and is therefore hidden for this case.

     Preconditions: roster lag for a genuine seat owner and exhausted index capacity; twenty throwaway EOA sessions can consume that per-location allowance without owning seats. The player is incorrectly told that ownership was disproved and loses owner controls while discovery is unavailable. Handle limited/incomplete discovery explicitly in the non-owner state and render an unavailable/retry message rather than a definitive no-seat claim.

     This is independent of the cached-candidate loss: it reproduces on the player's very first discovery.

     Executed unchanged Worker and AuthClient with actual viem/SQLite.

     Configure seat 361 as registered/online and on-chain-owned by synthetic EOA V, while the IMD owners roster is empty.

     Enable AUTH_LIMITER=20, CHAIN_LIMITER=20 and API_LIMITER=180 window fixtures.

     From one attacker IP, sign in twenty different synthetic EOAs and read each home once, spacing iterations by 2,500 ms; all requests succeed and spend twenty chain:index units.

     V signs in from another network and requests /api/me/home?fresh=1 in the same minute.

     Actual: HTTP 200, seats=[], eligible=0, block=null, recheck=limited, and zero additional chain requests.

     Restoring the real AuthClient yields signedInNoHouse; real seatRows returns [].

     Executing the exact me?text(...) expression extracted from WalletPanel.tsx:132 with this state returns "Checked on chain: this wallet holds no IMD seat right now."

     The owner-only limited notice is unreachable.

     Expected: display that the check could not be completed.

     This validates the actual render expression and state path, not a full browser render.
