The whole request
Deploy MarginaliaAnnex (src/MarginaliaAnnex.sol) on Ethereum mainnet: ONE contract, constructor (address hook, address intake, bytes32 action, address signer) = (0xf0457dd0cf526686190e4f057ba19db14d34a0cc the live MarginaliaHook of launch 1283, 0x1397434cd35e8a9C8aC312A61D3A285EB31dea56 the IdentityMD Intake, bytes32('oracle.request@oracle-1') the oracle action, 0x5598Aa9146215Bc13eb26f2c692Ad1461Fd32982 the IdentityMD oracle signer) — the same constants the live hook holds as INTAKE, ACTION and ORACLE_SIGNER.
What it is: Marginalia calls (falsifiable price calls with a bond) on the Uniswap v4 pools the hook's immutable router cannot accept. The router admits a v4 pool only when its hook is none or ours; every IMD custom_token launch pool carries the factory's PoolInitializationGuard hook 0x784ff9a3ac5d88a30bfff6f7f2a270161fbe6000 (address bits 0x2000, beforeInitialize only), so a call on any launched token's pool was refused.
VENUE RULE (no owner): a live v4 pool with X on one side and IMD 0xD34a99Bc0f67aE1bbd63C660e6d0b0dd03E263B7 / WETH / native on the other whose hook is (1) none or the Marginalia hook, or (2) has NO swap permission bits (BEFORE_SWAP, AFTER_SWAP, BEFORE_SWAP_RETURNS_DELTA, AFTER_SWAP_RETURNS_DELTA, read from the address as v4 defines them: such a hook cannot touch a swap, which admits the IMD guard by arithmetic; EXCEPT a dynamic-fee pool, key.fee == 0x800000, whose hook sets the LP fee with no permission bit and could freeze the price with a 100% exact-input fee: dynamic-fee pools pass only with the Marginalia hook or an admitted hook), or (3) was admitted by the IDENTITYMD ORACLE PANEL: anyone calls requestAdmission(address[] hooks), 1 to MAX_ADMISSION_LIST 4 hooks each with code, paying the Intake's current price for oracle.request@oracle-1 (refused above MAX_PRICE 1 IMD); the contract builds the question itself (admissionBody: the subset of hooks that keep their pools OPEN — any caller may swap, no allowlist, selective refusal or selective pause, and the pool price moves only through swaps and liquidity changes any caller may make; a fixed fee or tax charged to every trader alike does not exclude a hook, an owner-settable fee, a global pause or an upgrade path does; answerType address[], evidence panel, head = list length, panelSize 5, quorum 4, guards.allow = the list, consumer = this contract) and buys one answer with callback onOracleResult, which accepts only the Intake, verifies the EIP-712 attestation against the signer (OracleAttestationConsumer, domain IdentityMD Oracle v2), requires chainId == block.chainid, agreed >= quorum >= 4 and panelSize >= 5, consumes the request id once, and sets admittedHook only for hooks that were BOTH asked about AND named; admission is permanent.
ECONOMICS: post(params, v4Key, bond, minMargOut, deadline) pulls STAMP 0.1 + MARG_BUY 0.25 + bond (BOND_MIN 0.25 <= bond <= BOND_MAX 10) in IMD from the author; one quiet swap of 0.35 IMD on the hook's own MARG/IMD pool through the hook's PoolManager (unlockCallback accepts only the PoolManager): the 0.25 share of the MARG goes to the author (minMargOut bounds it), the 0.10 share is sent to 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD (Burned event); the bond is held as IMD.
Same rules as the hook: targetBps >= 10% from par on the call's side (0 = thesis is refused here), horizon 1-90 days, text 1-280 bytes, class Agent when the author has code else Declared, its own checkpointVenue price windows through the immutable stateless MarginaliaPricer at 0xEaff9B262341A0cB05579227e662BFE768A71cfb (first checkpoint at least one hour and at most six hours old), observe(id) in [horizonEnd, +6h] (3 to 16 readings, 20 blocks apart, spanning an hour, a later reading may replace the last only when more adverse), hold rule on BUY (author's X balance at every observation >= post balance, a failed balanceOf counts as not held), settle(id) after the window: each v4 observation priced alone through the pricer, the most adverse decides, RIGHT returns the bond via claimDeposit, WRONG / VOID_SOLD forfeit it to the hook's pools through hook.fundPot with KEEPER_BPS 10% to the settler, VOID_NODATA returns it and scores as wrong, retract(id, text) before the horizon forfeits the whole bond and scores at minus half; score is difficulty-weighted reputation only (pricer.difficulty with mcap = postPrice x X.totalSupply), nothing pays for being right.
A counter-call (parentId) may target an open call on this contract or on the hook (read-only through hook.noteOf; an id unknown to both is refused), same X, opposite side, not the author's own. Its own noteCount, ids keccak(annex, n), records(wallet) {score, posted, right, wrong, broken, retracted}; reads noteOf, venueOf, observationsOf.
No seals and no theses (hook features), no v3/v2 venues (the router has them), no owner, no pause, no upgrade, nonReentrant on post/settle/retract/claim/admission/callback. The constructor reads no chain state (the launcher rehearses constructors in an empty EVM); it stores the four values. Runtime 23.9 KB: keep it under EIP-170.
Deploy from this repository as it is; adapt only what deployment strictly requires; keep every number.
Tests: forge test --match-path test/Annex.t.sol (17 tests against the local hook, a guard-shaped hook etched at a 0x2000-bit address, a local Intake mock and an EOA signer, incl. the 200k callback stipend at the full 4-hook list, replay/tamper refusals, the 25:10 author/burn split, a held BUY call on the MARG pool settling RIGHT, and the dynamic-fee refusal).
An independent adversarial review before this launch found and fixed a double-counted post balance on the MARG venue and the dynamic-fee loophole; the callback measures ~171k gas at the full list, so the callback's write-set must not grow.

The review is complete. No tracked file changed; the only new files are
.imd-findings.jsonand the proof undertest/scratch/.Outcome: one high-severity defect, two lows, three informational notes. All 17 existing Annex tests pass, but they never parse the oracle body, which is where the defect hides.
High.
requestAdmissionalways sends malformed JSON.admissionBodyinlines the hook list inside the JSONquestionstring asHooks: ["0x..","0x.."]with raw double quotes. The question string closes at the first address, so a strict parser rejects the document. I dumped the real body and confirmed it with Python: it fails at character 580. The oracle-consumer reference says a refused body spends the price and never reaches the callback. So every admission request burns the asker's IMD, and no hook with swap permission bits can ever be admitted. There is no owner to repair it. The live judge avoids this by keeping ids only inguards.allowwith a quote-free question. The proof test attest/scratch/AnnexBodyJson.t.solruns a minimal strict JSON validator over the body. It fails on the current code and will pass once the quotes are escaped or dropped.Low.
poststores theuint256.maxsentinel aspostBalancewhen the author'sbalanceOfread fails, which guarantees a VoidSold forfeit on a BUY call. The hook reverts the post in that case.Low. The
launch.jsonin the tree is the hook launch'suniv4_hookmanifest. For this contracts-only launch it is schema-invalid and names noMarginaliaAnnexentry. The correct four constructor arguments are spelled out in the finding.Info.
hookAllowedignores the dynamic-fee rule that onlyvalidateVenueenforces, though the integration guide points agents to it. The immutable Intake pin is version 1 while the reference recommends version 2. The coverage note lists what was read and verified.Verified locally: runtime size is 24,001 bytes with 575 bytes of EIP-170 headroom, the constructor makes no external calls, no forbidden opcodes or admin paths exist, swap-flag bits match v4, and the observation, settlement, forfeit, counter-call and callback logic mirror the hook correctly.
Could not be reached: the live hook, Intake, pricer, PoolManager and guard hook on mainnet, since this environment has no RPC. Their behavior is assumed from the repo source and the pinned references.

post() accepts a BUY call whose balanceOf read fails and stores the uint256.max sentinel as postBalance, guaranteeing VoidSold forfeiture (the hook reverts instead)src/MarginaliaAnnex.sol:260
_balanceOf returns type(uint256).max when X.balanceOf(author) reverts, returns fewer than 32 bytes or exceeds the 100k gas cap. post() stores that sentinel as n.postBalance without checking it. _broken() then returns true for every later reading (balance == max, or any real balance < max), so a BUY call on such a token can only settle VoidSold (bond forfeited, 10% to the settler, rest to the hook's pools) or VoidNoData.
The hook's _postNote reads IERC20(p.x).balanceOf(author) directly (src/MarginaliaHook.sol:458) and reverts the post, so the hook never takes a bond it is certain to forfeit; the annex silently does.
Fix: in post(), revert InvalidNote when side == Buy and the read returned the sentinel.
launch.json in the tree is the previous univ4_hook launch's manifest; for the Annex (evm_contracts) it is an invalid manifest and must be replaced, not reusedlaunch.json:2
Read launch.json: line 2 is "kind": "univ4_hook" and there is no contracts array naming MarginaliaAnnex.
Submitting the tree with this file for an evm_contracts launch fails the manifest schema check (extra keys hook/token/pool, wrong kind).
Expected: a manifest that names MarginaliaAnnex with four constructor arguments in declaration order.
hookAllowed() does not encode the dynamic-fee rule, so the public predicate the integration guide points agents to says 'allowed' for a pool validateVenue refusessrc/MarginaliaAnnex.sol:167
AGENTS.md tells integrators that annex.hookAllowed(hook) 'answers all four' venue conditions. It is a function of the hook address alone; the dynamic-fee exception (key.fee == 0x800000 passes only with the Marginalia hook or an admitted hook) lives only in validateVenue (line 181). A guard-hooked dynamic-fee pool therefore reports hookAllowed == true and validateVenue == BadVenue.
No funds are at risk (validateVenue is what post and checkpointVenue use); the gap is a documentation/API mismatch that costs an agent a reverted transaction. Either document hookAllowed as the address-only test, or add a hookAllowedFor(hook, fee) view.
Etch GuardHook code at 0x7000...2000 (beforeInitialize only). key = PoolKey(X, IMD, 0x800000, 60, GUARD). annex.hookAllowed(GUARD) returns true; annex.validateVenue(params with venue.ref = key.toId(), key) reverts BadVenue (test/Annex.t.sol testDynamicFeePoolNeedsAdmissionEvenWithoutSwapBits shows the second half).
Intake, action and signer are immutable with no owner; the brief pins Intake version 1 and the plain request() path, so a retired v1 or a refused ask leaves requestAdmission dead or silently unansweresrc/MarginaliaAnnex.sol:81
Not a failing input. State to check before launch: cast call 0x1397434cd35e8a9C8aC312A61D3A285EB31dea56 'priceOf(bytes32,address)' 0x6f7261636c652e72657175657374406f7261636c652d31000000000000000000 0xD34a99Bc0f67aE1bbd63C660e6d0b0dd03E263B7 on mainnet must return a non-zero value <= 1e18, or requestAdmission reverts BadList forever.

What was done
- Malformed admission JSON (high, reproduced). The question string in
admissionBodyembedded the quoted hook list, so the body was not JSON and every admission request would have spent the asker's IMD for nothing. The question now names hooks bare, andguards.allowkeeps the quoted list. The newtestAdmissionBodyIsStrictJsonparses the body with forge's strict JSON cheatcodes for one, two and four hooks. The callback was not touched, and it measured 167,201 gas at the full four-hook list. - Unreadable balance on a BUY call (low, reproduced). A failed
balanceOfread stored the sentinel as the post balance, which could only settle VoidSold. The post now reverts in that case, matching the hook. The regression uses a token whose read reverts for the author. - Stale manifest (low, reproduced). The old hook-launch
launch.jsonis removed, since the manifest step writes the new one. README states the four constructor values for that step. - Fee-blind public predicate (info, reproduced). New view
hookAllowedFor(hook, fee)carries the dynamic-fee rule, andvalidateVenuenow calls it so the two cannot drift. AGENTS.md documents it. Two tests cover the guard, hookless, Marginalia and taxing hooks at static and dynamic fees, including an admitted hook passing the gate. - Immutable Intake and signer (info). Left as the brief fixes them. Live reads over a public RPC confirmed the Intake price is 0.5 IMD, the hook exposes the interface the Annex reads, and the guard, pricer and Intake have code. Recorded as trust assumptions in ADAPTATION.md.
Verification
Check Result Annex suite 20 passed Full suite, scratch and fork excluded 283 passed, 0 failed Plain run without RPC 283 passed, 1 skipped (fork setUp) Protected deployment floor from scratch 1 passed Annex runtime size 24,293 bytes (limit 24,576) The fork suite was not run because no mainnet RPC is configured in the environment. The constructor still reads no chain state, takes four static arguments, and nothing in the build configuration or dependencies changed.
