Write a self-contained Uniswap v4 hook on the starter's BaseHook that, for each pool, maintains three read-only records: the total number of swaps observed, the number of distinct blocks in which at least one swap was observed, and the block number of the most recent observed swap. A second swap within the same block must increment the swap count but must not increment the distinct-block count. Expose all three through read-only view functions.

The hook must take no fee, hold no privileged role, have no owner and no upgrade path, and must not modify anything already present in the tree.

A separate worker writes the tests using the existing launch-pool harness, covering at minimum: the first swap in a fresh pool sets all three records consistently; a second swap in the same block raises the swap count and leaves the distinct-block count unchanged; a swap in a later block raises both; records for two different pools do not interfere with each other; and reads for a pool that has never swapped behave sanely rather than reverting ambiguously.

A third worker then reads the implementation and the tests as an attacker and writes nothing, reporting what the tests would rather not have examined.

  • lowBlock numbers alias after uint64 truncationsrc/SwapCadenceHook.sol:137

    The hook narrows block.number to uint64 for both the distinct-block comparison and the stored last-swap block. Consequently, block numbers separated by 2**64 are treated as the same block, and lastSwapBlock stops exposing the actual most recent block once block.number exceeds type(uint64).max. This violates two of the three required records, although the triggering height is not realistically reachable on current chains.

    In the existing launch-pool harness, call vm.roll(1), execute one successful swap for key, then call vm.roll(18446744073709551617) (2**64 + 1) and execute a second successful swap for the same key.

    Expected: swapCount == 2, swapBlockCount == 2, and lastSwapBlock == 18446744073709551617.

    Actual: swapCount == 2, swapBlockCount == 1, and lastSwapBlock == 1 because uint64(18446744073709551617) == 1.

  • lowblock.number is silently narrowed to uint64 on both the store and the same-block comparison, so past 2**64 blocks a swap in a new block does not raise swapBlockCountsrc/SwapCadenceHook.sol:137

    _afterSwap decides whether a swap opens a new active block with cadence.lastSwapBlock != uint64(block.number), and then stores uint64(block.number). Both conversions truncate rather than revert. Once block.number exceeds 264 - 1, two swaps whose block numbers are congruent mod 264 compare equal, so the second is counted as a swap but not as a distinct block, and lastSwapBlock reports a block number that is not the one the swap happened in. This breaks the contract's stated invariant that swapBlockCount is 'how many distinct blocks contained at least one of those swaps'.

    The NatSpec at src/SwapCadenceHook.sol:52-57 argues the widths are safe and adds that 'Both counters are incremented with checked arithmetic, so neither can wrap silently even if that reasoning is ever wrong; the increment would revert instead.' That guarantee covers swapCount and swapBlockCount, but not this narrowing: the narrowing is the part that fails, and it fails silently rather than reverting. The reachability argument itself is sound -- no chain will reach 2**64 blocks -- so this is reported as low rather than as a live risk. It is reported at all because it is the one place where the code is not what its own safety argument claims, and because the fix is local (compare and store the full uint256, or revert on block.number > type(uint64).max).

    The test suite does not assert this behaviour. test/SwapCadenceHook.t.sol::test_TracksTheHighestBlockTheRecordCanHold pins the top of the range that does work (2**64 - 1) and stops there, deliberately, so that nothing in the suite blesses the behaviour above it.

    Foundry, against the existing launch-pool harness (test/BaseHookTest.sol) with hookArtifact() pointed at SwapCadenceHook:

    swap(key, true, -1 ether, ZERO_BYTES);          // block.number == 1

// swapCount 1, swapBlockCount 1, lastSwapBlock 1

vm.roll((uint256(1) << 64) | 1);                // block 18446744073709551617

swap(key, true, -1 ether, ZERO_BYTES);

    Expected: swapCount 2, swapBlockCount 2, lastSwapBlock 18446744073709551617.

    Actual (observed): swapCount 2, swapBlockCount 1, lastSwapBlock 1.

    The swap in the second, genuinely distinct block raised swapCount but not swapBlockCount, and lastSwapBlock still reports block 1. Control: the same two-swap sequence at blocks 1 and 264 - 1 gives the expected 2 / 2 / 18446744073709551615, so the divergence begins exactly at 264.

  • infoswapCount counts swaps regardless of size, so the 'swaps per active block' figure the contract advertises can be set to any value for gas alonesrc/SwapCadenceHook.sol:23

    The contract documents its output as a metric: 'swapCount / swapBlockCount is a pool's swaps per active block, which distinguishes steady trickle from burst.' The counter itself is faithful to its narrower definition -- 'every swap the pool manager has reported' says nothing about size -- so this is not a counting bug and no test here asserts otherwise. The gap is between what is counted and what the documentation invites a reader to conclude from it.

    Because the hook takes no fee and holds no privileged role, a swap that moves one wei of input and zero output is indistinguishable, in all three records, from a swap that moves the whole pool. A single address can therefore drive swapCount, and with it the advertised ratio, to any value it likes for gas plus dust, without ever trading. Anything downstream that reads these records as evidence of real activity -- a launch dashboard, an eligibility gate, a fee tier that keys off cadence -- is reading a number with no cost floor under it.

    This is reported rather than tested around because it cannot be fixed inside the stated behaviour: making the records resistant would mean weighting by volume or notional, which is a different contract from the one that was specified and accepted. test/SwapCadenceHook.t.sol::test_CountsASwapThatMovesAlmostNothing pins the mechanism and says plainly in its comment that the consequence is reported here, so the suite documents the input without endorsing the interpretation.

    Foundry, against the existing launch-pool harness:

    BalanceDelta delta = swap(key, true, -1, ZERO_BYTES);   // one wei of ETH in

    Observed: delta.amount0() == -1, delta.amount1() == 0 -- the swapper paid one wei and received no token at all -- and the hook's records move from (0, 0, 0) to swapCount 1, swapBlockCount 1, lastSwapBlock == block.number.

    Repeating that call N times in one block yields swapCount N, swapBlockCount 1, i.e. an advertised cadence of N swaps per active block, for a total economic cost of N wei plus gas. Expected, if the ratio is to mean what the NatSpec says it means: a swap that transfers no output should not be indistinguishable from a real one. Actual: it is indistinguishable in all three records.
