The repository's own launch review never rehearses a bare chain, so nothing in the suite would have caught the first finding. The review is complete and the findings file holds both results.

Outcome. The audit found one launch-rule defect that would park the deployment and one robustness gap. No loss-of-funds, wrong-recipient, accounting, reentrancy or access-control defect was substantiated in the four launch contracts. The findings are in .imd-findings.json; the proof for the medium finding is at test/scratch/VaultConstructorEmptyChain.t.sol and fails on this code with WrongWiring().

Findings

• Medium, TaskVault constructor on a bare chain. The constructor reverts when the burner address has no code and makes a high-level call to the attestation checker. The protected harness deploys the launch codes with only the factory etched, so the fourth application's constructor fails and the launch is parked. The fix that keeps the design is to store those addresses as plain immutables and verify them on first use. The desk wiring calls can stay since both desks exist in the same transaction.
• Low, unguarded add-on read. The vault's submitTerms reads the bound sweetener's bonusOf with a plain call, while the hub and DevPrices reads on the same path are fail-safe. A bound module that reverts blocks every submission and quote forever, since binding is irreversible. Verified with a scratch test. The post-launch binding itself is an accepted rule of the docs, so only the missing fail-safe read is reported.

Coverage. Read in full: TaskVault, CaseDesk, DisputeDesk, YoloLockHub, Desk, DeskApi, VaultTypes, VaultParams, plus the launch-#2364 dependencies they call (AttestationChecker, VotePower, VoteLib, DevPrices, SwarmQuestion, TextRules, the registry's vote-param getter, the Intake interface) and the launch plan. Checked and found sound: forwarding and sender-suffix decoding, the transient reentrancy lock across vault and desks, bond collection and settlement splits per currency, the swarm caller funding and refunds, lazy timers, the money buckets, vote once-per-NFT, stake power at submission versus payout, and the forbidden-opcode list. Not reached within the budget: the fork rehearsal against the live factory, the invariant suite, the YoloSweetener and YoloPredict modules beyond their read interface, and the Intake's on-chain body validation. The attestation's question hash is not bound by the callback, which the docs list as an accepted limitation, so it was not reported.

The review is complete and .imd-findings.json is written with one info-level finding and a coverage row for every one of the 113 listed entry points plus three invariant rows.

Outcome. I found no access-control, trust-gap or asymmetry defect of low severity or higher in the four launch contracts. The permission model holds end to end:

• Vault forwarding. The fallback routes only the fixed table of ITaskVault selectors. Views go by staticcall. State-changing calls run under the one reentrancy lock with the sender and value appended, and the transient _caller makes the bank pull tokens only from the user of the call in progress. An unrouted desk selector through the vault reverts, and every desk-only or bank function reverts for a stranger. My scratch probe test under test/scratch/ confirms this, and the existing guard suite in test/review/ReviewSplitAccess.t.sol passes.
• Wiring. The transient flag closes wire with the deployment transaction, each desk accepts only its own slot, and registry, IMD and USDC are cross-checked.
• Money split symmetry. The losing side's own swarm spend is deducted the same way in the decided, neutral and disputer-claim paths. Caller refunds, voter buckets and the treasury or burn shares sum to the penalty and the fee in every branch I traced.
• Privileged roles. The DevPrices owner's cancel, the registry owner's parameter, attester and pause powers, and the burner's buyback wallet all match the accepted trust assumptions and move no user funds to themselves.
• Launch arguments. All seven static addresses have code on mainnet. The checker's registry, VotePower's NFT and delegate registry, the burner's YOLO and DevPrices, the YOLO symbol, the registry owner and version, and the Intake's price and requests ABI all match what the contracts assume.

The one finding (info). Both desks store a yolo_ constructor argument that no code reads, and wire does not compare it with the vault's YOLO. A wrong value would deploy and run unnoticed. No funds or outcomes depend on it.

Not reached. The launch 0 vesting contracts, the splitter, the swap adapter's internals, YoloPredict, and the sweetener's payout and withdraw paths are marked unreached in the coverage record. I did not run the full 688-test suite or the fork test within the budget.

Review complete. The findings file is written and valid.

Outcome: no reproducible defect in the economics of this launch. .imd-findings.json holds an empty findings list and a 116-row coverage record (every listed entry point plus three money invariants).

What I traced in depth (Economic Security, Invariant, Flow Gap guides):

• The accepted-reward split in DisputeDesk._payReward sums to R in every branch: staked or not, NFT right or not. The sweetener in launch 4 mirrors the same split from Settlement.stakeBps.
• The loser-bond split per currency sums to the loser's bonds minus that side's own swarm spend. A side's bond funds at most one call, so the spend can never exceed the bond.
• Every liabilities change is paired with money entering or leaving the vault. Bucket moves (pot, settlement, credit, treasury pot) leave it unchanged.
• Reward lock: nothing leaves an Open task before or after its deadline, top-ups only add, acceptance takes the whole pot, Expired or Unwound returns exactly the active share.
• YoloLockHub power: a term gives exactly amount × weeks / 52 with no rounding inflation, an ended lock re-locked gets a new epoch, so stakePower returns zero for submissions made under the old lock.
• Seams checked: the lazy advance before every action, cancel in every phase including Appealed and Asked, silent or completed-without-answer Intake states, void appeals, and YoloToken transfers to the vault and hub, which carry no tax.

Items seen but not reported because the docs list them as accepted rules: the question hash is not compared in onOracleResult, a void appeal is free and counts toward the three calls, a 10-NFT holder can decide a dispute alone.

Not reached: ParamsRegistry's timelock and attester paths, YoloPredict, DareTrophy.mint and the swap adapter internals. All are earlier or later launches or trusted parameters.

Tests did not run. forge build stalled for twenty minutes without a compiler download on this machine, so no scratch proof was executed. Since no finding needed one, that changes nothing in the report.

The review is finished. The findings file is valid, and no tracked file was changed.

Outcome: no reproducible defect in the control-flow area. The file .imd-findings.json holds an empty findings list and a coverage record for all 113 listed entry points plus five invariant rows.

What changed since my last message. The via-ir build completed, so I executed one scratch test for the trace I was least sure of. A disputer who lost the NFT vote appeals out of their own bond, the swarm stays silent, and the next window ends uncalled. The test confirmed every step:

• No wallet IMD leaves the disputer at the appeal, since the fee comes from their bond.
• The submission moves Decided, Asked, back to Decided on silence, then Final as Accepted.
• The lost disputer claims nothing and holds no credit.
• Half of the reward-currency bond sits in the voter bucket.
• The base fixture's claim-everything reconciliation holds: vault balance equals liabilities for every token with nothing stuck.

The scratch file lives under test/scratch/, which is not kept.

Coverage summary

The unreached rows are contracts of launches 0, 1 and 4, which I only skimmed for guards. The vault facts those fourth-launch modules rely on were checked and match.

Limitation. Only one new test ran. The remaining conclusions rest on reading the code against the Execution Trace, Periphery and First Principles guides, with the repository's existing 688 tests and bucket invariants as supporting evidence.

The review is complete. .imd-findings.json holds an empty findings list and a 116-row coverage record, the working tree is unchanged, and nothing was written under test/scratch.

Result: no reproducible defect in the assigned area. I checked the core launch (YoloLockHub, CaseDesk, DisputeDesk, TaskVault, with DevPrices, Desk, VaultParams and the launch-4 readers) against the Math Precision, Boundary and Numerical Gap guides with concrete values.

What was traced and holds:

• Fee split conservation. In _payReward, doer credit plus treasury plus burn plus voter fee equals the reward exactly, for staked and unstaked doers and with the NFT right or wrong. The stakers' share never underflows because the registry bounds the NFT share by the fee.
• Loser-bond split per currency. _settleDecided and _splitCurrency conserve bonds posted minus swarm fees spent, for every combination of winner, side caller and stranger caller. A side's own swarm fee is charged to its bond at most once and never exceeds that bond.
• Pro-rata claims. Disputer, voter, sweetener and prediction claims all use remaining-over-remaining division, so the last claimant takes the dust and nothing is over-allocated.
• Lock power. Amount fits uint96, weeks-left rounds up, the extension rule matches the docs, powerAt reads strictly before the block and stakePower returns zero after an end, withdrawal or relock.
• Scales and casts. The USDC six-decimal path, the YOLO conversion, and every uint128, uint64 and uint32 cast are bounded or SafeCast-guarded.
• Timers and ETH. Every window closes with >= on one side and < on the other with no gap, and every payable route settles msg.value against the summed ETH need after all collects.

Things that look odd but are documented rules, not findings: a dust stake still switches the fee to the staked split, an extension can lower power, and a late poke after a timer can settle without the window being usable.

Verification run here: the via-IR build took about 25 minutes, then the Disputes, MoneyRules, YoloLockHub and Payments suites passed, and all five money-bucket invariants passed at the configured depth.

Not reached: DareTrophy, TrophyCatalog, HiddenList, NftGate, ProtocolDirectory, the vestings, YoloSplitter, the swap adapter internals and the registry's owner functions. Each has an unreached row.

I added one test file, test/CoreLaunchAudit.t.sol. All 32 of its tests pass with the verifier's fuzz seed, but I could not get the full forge test (688 tests) to finish on this machine. A full via-IR build was killed after 20 minutes, and a later full run hit my 580-second timeout before it got through compiling. Building only the new file and its imports took a few minutes. I changed nothing else, so the existing tests shouldn't be affected, but I haven't seen the whole suite pass. The mainnet fork run (FORK_URL) is also still owed, since it can't run here.

Failure paths and access control

• Desks: they refuse direct calls to every internal entry from anyone but the vault or the other desk. A caller who appends someone else's address to a desk call is still refused.
• Vault internals: the vault's money functions (credit, pay, burn, collect, ask and the rest) are desks-only.
• Wiring: a helper deploys and wires desks in one transaction, as the launch does. A desk put in the wrong slot or given another registry is refused; once wired, it can't be wired again, even in the same transaction. The launch's own desks refuse wiring afterwards.
• Vault entry: unknown function selectors, ETH sent to a non-payable forwarded call, and plain ETH are all refused.
• Creating tasks: each currency's minimum, fuzzed (one unit below fails, the exact minimum works). A $500M task goes through with no creation fee. The deadline is required.
• Reward lock: nobody takes money back while the task is open, even past the deadline while a submission is still being judged. After expiry each contributor gets their money back exactly once; top-ups and submissions are refused after the deadline.
• Submissions: the slippage and bond caps work. The bond is 3% of the author's own part only (top-ups don't raise it) and isn't doubled for queued submissions.
• Disputes: the doer can't dispute their own submission, the author can, and a second dispute is refused. One second before the 24-hour window ends works; exactly at the end, the next call settles the submission first.
• Votes: checked that an empty list, a bad side or a zero payee is refused. Also refused: an NFT the voter doesn't hold, a repeated id, switching sides, and an NFT that already voted and was passed on. Votes before any dispute or at the vote end are refused.
• Decision thresholds: a lead of 19 doesn't decide at once and 20 does; at the end, 9 doesn't decide and 10 does.

Exact money of each outcome

• Quiet acceptance: the doer gets 90% of the whole pot, top-ups included.
• NFT decided right:
  • Acceptance: the correct voters get 5% of the reward plus half the disputer's bond.
  • Rejection: the reward stays in the task.
• NFT undecided, nobody calls the swarm: the doer gets the disputer's whole bond.
• Three swarm silences: the submission ends as if nobody had called. The caller gets the bond back each time; the three fees stay paid.
• Swarm overturns the NFT: voters get nothing.
• Cancellation: only the DevPrices owner can cancel, and only an open task. Cancelling while the swarm is being asked refunds everyone except fees already paid; a late answer changes nothing, and the cancelling wallet gets nothing.
• Stake bonus (fuzzed): the bonus share, the burn and the treasury split come out exact. No bonus if the lock was made in the same second as the submission, ended before the payout, or was withdrawn and locked again. A broken hub never blocks a submission or a payout.
• YoloLockHub: term limits, only-longer extensions, and withdrawal only after the lock ends.

Invariants over random call sequences

• Vault with cancellations mixed in (the existing invariant suite has none): the vault stays solvent. For every task that hasn't been accepted, what's left plus what was taken back equals what was put in. Nobody takes back more than they put in, nothing leaves an open task, and a finished task never changes

The review is complete and .imd-findings.json holds the result.

Outcome. The core launch (YoloLockHub, CaseDesk, DisputeDesk, TaskVault) holds as it arrived. I kept one finding, at info severity, and dropped nothing because no specialist reported anything else.

• Finding 1 (info, merged from the permissions specialist): both desks store a yolo_ constructor argument that no code path reads, and Desk.wire does not compare it with the vault's YOLO the way it compares registry, IMD and USDC. A mistyped sixth argument in launch.json entry 2 or 3 would deploy and run identically. The manifest as given is consistent, so the live launch is unaffected. Reproduced by reading: the only uses are the declaration, parameter and assignment at src/desks/CaseDesk.sol:52 and src/desks/DisputeDesk.sol:53.

What I verified myself.

• Traced every TaskVault, CaseDesk, DisputeDesk and YoloLockHub entry point: access guards, the transient lock and _caller binding, the lazy state machine, bond funding from a side's own bond, void and silent swarm paths, and cancellation refunds.
• Hand-checked money conservation to the wei in three settlements: accepted after a doer appeal, rejected with the NFT right, and a stranger call with the NFT undecided. Every bucket summed to what was booked.
• Confirmed on mainnet with cast call that the live Intake v2 answers requests(bytes32) with the four-word shape the desk decodes and sells the action at 0.5 IMD, closing the lead that a decode failure could stall a task.
• Built the sources with via-IR: runtime margins are exactly the documented 3,087 bytes for DisputeDesk, 3,635 for TaskVault and 4,512 for CaseDesk, and every initcode is far under 49,152 bytes.
• Checked the static-analysis leads: the reentrancy lines sit behind the transient lock or are credit-only, the arbitrary-send lines go to parameter contracts, and the strict equalities are intended sentinels.

Coverage. All 113 entry points have a row, 99 answered as holds or finding and 14 unreached. The unreached ones are DareTrophy, HiddenList and ProtocolDirectory, which belong to launch 4 and I did not read within the budget.

Not run. The full forge test suite did not compile within the time available under via-IR, and the fork rehearsal needs an archive RPC I do not have, so the 14.9M gas figure rests on the documented measurement and the fact that the adaptations only removed a constructor call.
