Implement SwapCounterHook: the smallest useful Uniswap v4 hook.

completedtemplateimpl_tests_reviewe4be5049…0b96base8254234c

Implement SwapCounterHook: the smallest useful Uniswap v4 hook. It counts swaps.

Behaviour, in full:

  • one hook permission, afterSwap, and nothing else. Not beforeSwap, not any returnDelta flag
  • a public mapping from PoolId to uint256, incremented by one in afterSwap
  • a public view returning the count for a given PoolId
  • afterSwap returns (IHooks.afterSwap.selector, 0). It never modifies a delta

Deliberately absent, and it must stay that way:

  • NO owner, admin, or privileged address of any kind
  • NO funds. It never takes, settles, mints or holds a currency
  • NO withdrawal, no fees, no constructor arguments beyond the pool manager
  • NO upgradeability and no way to change its behaviour after deployment

This exists to exercise the launch path end to end, so its value is in being impossible to get wrong rather than in what it does. A hook that holds nothing and grants nobody authority has no question to answer about who may withdraw or what happens under CREATE2 — which is the class of problem that blocked the previous attempt. Keep it that way: if a requirement seems to call for an owner or a balance, it is not this contract.

The launch manifest this job produces must declare:

  • "kind": "univ4_hook" as its first field
  • the hook contract SwapCounterHook, with permissions: afterSwap, and no others
  • paired currency 0x1c7d4b196cb0c7b01d743fbc6116a902379c7238 (USDC on Sepolia)
  • fee tier 10000

Both are on the launch policy's allowlist; anything else is refused at admission.

  • mediumThe suite constrains counting behaviour but not the contract's external surface: an owner, an owner-writable count, and a delegatecall upgrade path all pass all 18 teststest/SwapCounterHook.t.sol:111

    The spec's load-bearing requirements for this contract are the absences: NO owner/admin/privileged address, NO withdrawal, NO upgradeability. Every assertion in the suite is about the count, the returned selector/delta, the permission bits, or the hook's balance after one swap.

    Nothing pins the contract's external interface or its storage layout, so the three forbidden properties can all be added without turning a single test red. test_SwapsNeverTransferFundsToTheHook (line 111) is the closest thing to an invariant test, and it only observes that a swap does not push funds to the hook -- it does not observe that the hook has no way to pull or forward them.

    The shipped implementation is clean, so this is a coverage gap rather than a live defect; it is worth reporting because it is the exact regression class this contract exists to make impossible, and the suite is what future edits will be checked against.

    Two surviving mutants are given below; a third mutant (adding receive() external payable {}) is caught, but only by accident -- the SwapCounterHook(address(hook)) cast on line 23 stops compiling once the contract becomes payable, which is a compile error rather than an assertion.

    Suggested tests: assert the deployed runtime code contains no selector other than swapCount(bytes32)/getSwapCount(bytes32)/getHookPermissions()/poolManager()/afterSwap(...) (or assert its exact code hash), assert address(hook).call{value: 1}("") returns false, and assert the count is monotonic -- that no call from any address can lower or overwrite swapCount for a pool.

    Mutant A (owner + owner-writable count + token sweep). In src/SwapCounterHook.sol, insert before the constructor:

    address public owner = msg.sender;
    
    function setCount(PoolId poolId, uint256 n) external {
    
        require(msg.sender == owner, "not owner");
    
        swapCount[poolId] = n;
    
    }
    
    function sweepToken(address erc20, address to, uint256 amount) external {
    
        require(msg.sender == owner, "not owner");
    
        (bool ok,) = erc20.call(abi.encodeWithSignature("transfer(address,uint256)", to, amount));
    
        require(ok);
    
    }
    

    Expected: at least one test fails (the contract now has a privileged address that can rewrite any pool's count and move any ERC20 the hook holds). Actual, observed with forge 1.7.1: forge test -> "18 tests passed, 0 failed"; all 10 SwapCounterHook tests PASS, including test_SwapsNeverTransferFundsToTheHook and test_RepeatedSwapsIncrementByExactlyOne.

    Mutant B (upgradeability). Instead insert before the constructor:

    address public impl;
    
    address private immutable _admin = msg.sender;
    
    function setImpl(address a) external { require(msg.sender == _admin); impl = a; }
    
    fallback() external {
    
        address t = impl;
    
        assembly {
    
            calldatacopy(0, 0, calldatasize())
    
            let ok := delegatecall(gas(), t, 0, calldatasize(), 0, 0)
    
            returndatacopy(0, 0, returndatasize())
    
            switch ok case 0 { revert(0, returndatasize()) } default { return(0, returndatasize()) }
    
        }
    
    }
    

    Expected: at least one test fails (behaviour is now changeable after deployment). Actual: forge test -> "18 tests passed, 0 failed".

    For contrast, mutants inside the counting logic are all caught: swapCount[key.toId()] += 2 fails 4 tests; returning (IHooks.afterSwap.selector, 1) fails testFuzz_AfterSwapAlwaysReturnsSelectorAndZeroDelta; skipping the increment when the BalanceDelta is zero fails the fuzz test and test_CountsAreIsolatedByPoolId; declaring beforeSwap: true fails test_HasOnlyAfterSwapPermission.

  • lowgetSwapCount counts afterSwap callbacks, including swaps that exchange nothing, contradicting the "completed swaps" wording in the NatSpec and test namessrc/SwapCounterHook.sol:47

    src/SwapCounterHook.sol:13 documents the contract as "Counts completed swaps", and test/SwapCounterHook.t.sol:54 asserts "the first completed swap counts once". The implementation increments on every afterSwap callback, and v4 fires afterSwap for swap calls in which zero of both currencies changes hands -- an amount too small to survive the fee, or a swap that walks the price through a range holding no liquidity.

    The number is therefore "swap calls routed through this pool", not "trades", and it can be driven up for effectively nothing: 10 wei buys ten increments and delivers zero token, and the empty-range case costs literally zero currency. There are no funds and no authority attached to the counter, so the impact is confined to anyone reading getSwapCount off-chain as a trade count; the launch pipeline this hook exercises reads it as exactly that.

    Cheapest correct fix is the doc/test wording ('afterSwap callbacks' rather than 'completed swaps'); changing the increment to be conditional on a non-zero delta would be a behaviour change and would need the fuzz test at line 118 updated with it, since that test currently asserts the count moves for a zero BalanceDelta.

    Both run against the harness pool that BaseHookTest.setUp already builds (native ETH / LaunchToken, fee 3000, whole supply as one position below START_TICK), added as tests in test/SwapCounterHook.t.sol.

    (a) Dust buys deliver nothing and still count:

    uint256 before = token.balanceOf(address(this));
    
    for (uint256 i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
    
        BalanceDelta d = swap(key, true, -1, ZERO_BYTES);   // 1 wei of ETH, exact input
    
        assertEq(d.amount0(), -1);
    
        assertEq(d.amount1(), 0);
    
    }
    
    // observed: token.balanceOf(address(this)) - before == 0
    
    // observed: counter().getSwapCount(key.toId()) == 10, for 10 wei total
    

    Expected if the count meant completed swaps: 0. Actual: 10.

    (b) An account with no ETH and no token increments the count while moving nothing:

    address pauper = address(0xDEAD);        // balance 0, token balance 0
    
    vm.prank(pauper);
    
    BalanceDelta d = swap(key, false, -1, ZERO_BYTES);   // sell into the empty range above START_TICK
    
    // observed: d.amount0() == 0 and d.amount1() == 0 -- nothing was exchanged, no fee paid
    
    // observed: token.balanceOf(pauper) == 0 and pauper.balance == 0
    
    // observed: counter().getSwapCount(key.toId()) == 1
    

    Expected if the count meant completed swaps: 0. Actual: 1. (A second identical call reverts with PriceLimitAlreadyExceeded, so (b) is one free increment per price position, while (a) repeats without limit.)

  • infoNo test exercises the pool configuration the manifest actually launches (ERC20/ERC20 pair, fee tier 10000) or a real oneForZero swap through the PoolManagertest/SwapCounterHook.t.sol:49

    Every swap that goes through the PoolManager in this suite uses the inherited harness pool -- native ETH as currency0, LaunchToken as currency1, fee 3000 (BaseHookTest.poolFee returns STATIC_FEE because the hook declares a flag), tickSpacing 60 -- and every one of them is zeroForOne = true. The manifest declares a different pool: paired currency 0x1c7d4b196cb0c7b01d743fbc6116a902379c7238 (USDC on Sepolia), an ERC20/ERC20 pair, at fee tier 10000.

    The fuzz test at line 118 covers arbitrary callback inputs, but it pranks the manager rather than routing a swap, so the manager-driven path is only ever seen in one direction on one pool shape. I ran both missing cases and the hook behaves correctly in each, so this is a gap in evidence rather than a defect -- recording it so the next contributor knows which two tests are worth adding rather than re-deriving it.

    Verified in a scratch copy of the repo (repository itself unmodified), forge 1.7.1:

    (a) ERC20/ERC20 at the manifest's fee tier -- currently untested, passes:

    PoolKey memory k = PoolKey({currency0: c0, currency1: c1, fee: 10_000, tickSpacing: 200, hooks: IHooks(address(hook))});
    
    manager.initialize(k, TickMath.getSqrtPriceAtTick(0));
    
    modifyLiquidityRouter.modifyLiquidity(k, ModifyLiquidityParams({tickLower: -6000, tickUpper: 6000, liquidityDelta: 1e21, salt: 0}), ZERO_BYTES);
    
    swapRouter.swap(k, SwapParams({zeroForOne: true, amountSpecified: -1e18, sqrtPriceLimitX96: TickMath.MIN_SQRT_PRICE + 1}), PoolSwapTest.TestSettings({takeClaims: false, settleUsingBurn: false}), ZERO_BYTES);
    
    assertEq(counter().getSwapCount(k.toId()), 1);   // observed: 1
    

    (b) A real sell through the PoolManager -- currently untested, passes:

    swap(key, true, -1 ether, ZERO_BYTES);                        // buy first, count == 1
    
    swap(key, false, -int256(token.balanceOf(address(this)) / 2), ZERO_BYTES);
    
    assertEq(counter().getSwapCount(key.toId()), 2);   // observed: 2, delta (+497248887111271211, -490008422659696891087123)
