What the judges said
What works. Posts read in four short lines with a size bar that grows one dot per half-decade of USD and a whale mark from $100k. In a burst the two heaviest trades are posted, then a silent summary gives buy and sell totals and a link to the largest. Back-to-back catch-up passes share one budget per group until CAIRN_POLL_MS has passed, so a backlog never floods. Pragma is read at the trade's block, USD is rounded half up with <$0.01, and a token that only passes through an AVNU route does not create a false Ekubo trade. Reverse names are forward-verified, and venues, contracts and exclusions all derive from one VENUES table.
To fix. 1. A $250k sell's first line ('Sell STRK · ≈$250,000.00' after ten dots and a whale) and the footer ('Ekubo · 2026-10-20 00:00:22 UTC · View transaction') wrap on a phone (src/trades.mjs:197-217). Cap the bar or give it its own line, and shorten the link text. 2. An AVNU ETH to USDC swap in the same transaction as an AVNU USDC to STRK swap posts '1,000 STRK for 75 USDC + 0.02 ETH' instead of 'for 125 USDC': src/trades.mjs:47 and :142 net every swap of the venue, not only the ones naming the token. 3. After a reverse name fails its forward check, 'no name' is cached for 24 h of chain time (src/names.mjs:116, :197): an address that then sets a valid name keeps showing as a short address. /balance of an address with a verified name shows only the short address (src/commands.mjs:119). 4. chainOrder (src/bot.mjs:29, :370) assumes every delivery has a position: a feed that omits it throws a TypeError that kills the pass. Give it a default.
What works. The size bar and weighted burst planner make group feeds usable on a phone during busy markets. Venue precedence, fee-index handling, and the scanner tradeFeed plug-in are easy to follow and feel built on round 2 rather than beside it.
To fix. When comparing five explorer trades, double-check that the aggregator 'routed via Transfer' branch never nets a hop that should be zero under the brief's AVNU Swap-involving-token rule. Consider documenting one concrete third-venue example in README with the exact filter keys.

What the judges said
What works. The most phone-friendly post: five short lines, a dot row that grows with USD value on a log scale, and a short 'tx' link, so nothing wraps. Netting by venue priority is generic, round 2's header and fee helpers are reused, the fee check is the strictest (sender, last event, actual_fee), and wallet alerts and the feed share one Transfer read. USD is half up with <$0.01, reverse names are forward-verified on every pass, and the scanner test with three filters and paging is the strongest of the round.
To fix. 1. Every sell shows its proceeds as paid: an Ekubo sell of 1,000 STRK for 125 USDC posts 'Sell 1,000 STRK … Paid: 125 USDC' (src/feed.mjs:97-101, 118); expected 'Received'. With an AVNU buy of STRK for 125 USDC and an AVNU sell of 0.1 ETH for 250 USDC in the same transaction it posts 'Paid: 125 USDC + 0.1 ETH' although USDC was received on net: the signs are ignored. 2. A burst of 12 trades in one block posts the first two in chain order (120 and 80 STRK), then '…and 11 more: 10 trades, 1 alert.', which hides a 900,000 STRK buy (src/bot.mjs:31-35, 385-392). Six blocks behind with CAIRN_MAX_BLOCKS=1 and four trades per block, it sent 18 messages in 6 s: the budget is per deliver() call, not per group pass. 3. Prices are read at 'latest' (src/prices.mjs:21): a trade made at $0.125 and scanned at $0.25 posts $250.00 instead of $125.00. A Pragma answer of price 0 with a non-zero timestamp shows 'STRK: $0' as fresh (src/prices.mjs:35-37). 4. A third venue needs edits beyond the table: src/config.mjs:88 whitelists the contract keys, src/feed.mjs:31 and :106 hard-code the venues. A watch set in a forum topic encodes the topic into event_index (src/alerts.mjs:99-100), so ledger.messageId(chat, tx, firstEventIndex) returns null for that alert. /unfeed with no feed replies 'Trade feed stopped.'
What works. feed.mjs keeps round-3 decoding readable; reverse-name forward checks and Pragma stale labelling behave as the brief asks; group budget summarisation is present.
To fix. Feed post layout is plain: tighten to ~3 short lines with side, amount, USD, trader, venue. Align the scanner integration closer to a single tradeFeed {reads,wanted,find} object so a third venue is one table row like A/B.

What the judges said
What works. Core decoding is right: multi-hop, AVNU precedence limited to the swaps naming the token, paymaster trades, and the fee rule matched against the receipt. Sells say Received and buys say Paid. Prices and USD are exact (half up, <$0.01), freshness requires a positive price, a source and a valid age, and reverse names are canonical and forward-verified at the event's block; /balance shows the verified name. The /feed reply explains the burst rule and the topic, and the feed respects /mute.
To fix. 1. netTrade hard-codes 'AVNU' and 'Ekubo' (src/trades.mjs:48-52): add a third VENUES entry and its contract, decodeSwaps returns its swap but netTrade gives net 0 and nothing posts. Exclusions are hard-coded too (src/trades.mjs:96, src/feed-settings.mjs:7). 2. Trades and alerts are priced at the head block (src/trades.mjs:107, src/alerts.mjs:84): a trade made when STRK was $0.125 and scanned when it is $0.25 posts ≈$250.00 instead of $125.00. Read Pragma at the trade's block. 3. Size shows only as a whale above $100k (src/trades.mjs:122): a $6 buy and a $62,500 buy look the same. The burst summary (src/ledger.mjs:26-50) has counts, generic 'Transaction 1 … 4' links and raw topic ids, no amounts. Deliveries are sorted by block only (src/bot.mjs:327), so wallet alerts take the burst slots: with a feed in forum topic 17 and a watch in topic 21, five trades in one block gave topic 17 nothing. 4. An AVNU USDC to ETH route whose first leg is an Ekubo USDC to STRK pool and whose second leg is another DEX posts 'Buy 1,000 STRK' with the pool as trader (src/trades.mjs:48-49). /price says 'no price available' alike for a missing pair, a Pragma error and a 0/0 answer, and a future timestamp shows 'age -120s'. Rendering sits in the ledger (src/ledger.mjs:26-50), and the fee and header logic is re-done per feed (src/trades.mjs:74-83, 99-112).
What works. End-to-end /feed, /price and naming paths are wired; checks pass; burst summarisation is acknowledged in product copy.
To fix. Improve group-fit rendering (size cue, denser first line) and make volume capping as explicit as B's plan()/summarise(). Cap reverse lookups per pass so a busy block cannot stall the scanner. Spell the AVNU-vs-Ekubo netting rule next to the decoder the way A/B do.

What the judges said
What works. A small, readable diff that generalises round 2's FEEDS seam: each feed returns keyed filters, each filter is read once per range, and deliveries still commit with the cursor. decodeSwaps, netTrade and findTrader are pure, the venue table is in precedence order, signs and i129/u256 handling are right, and the excluded addresses come from the enabled venues. The Starknet ID codec passes all the vectors, reverse names are forward-verified on every pass, and replies tell an unknown name from a lookup failure.
To fix. 1. networks/SN_MAIN.json and SN_SEPOLIA.json are unchanged from the base: no contracts and no pragma_pair, although ARCHITECTURE.md gives the addresses. On mainnet, /feed STRK $100 all answers 'Trade feeds are unavailable' (src/settings.mjs:82), /price answers 'Prices are unavailable' and /watch x.stark answers 'Names are unavailable'. 2. USD is rounded down (src/prices.mjs:35-41) where ARCHITECTURE.md asks half up: a value just under $1.01 shows $1.00, and a value under a cent shows $0.00 instead of <$0.01. Prices are read at the latest block: a trade made at $0.125 and scanned at $0.25 posts $250.00 instead of $125.00. 3. A two-pool Ekubo route USDC to ETH to STRK posts 'Buy 1,000 STRK for 0.05 ETH' instead of 'for 125 USDC': src/venues.mjs:69 keeps only the swaps naming the token, so the paid leg is the intermediate hop. /watch aa.stark saves 'aa.stark' as the label (src/settings.mjs:47): alerts show 'from aa.stark' for an address whose reverse name is something else, and keep showing it after the name moves to another address. 4. Posts do not grow with size: a $6 buy and a $250k sell differ only in their numbers (src/trades.mjs:77-86). The burst summary is up to ten bare transaction hashes with no side or amount. Deliveries are not sorted (src/bot.mjs:316-333), so wallet alerts take the burst slots: with a feed in forum topic 17 and a watch in topic 21, five trades gave topic 17 nothing. 'A third venue is one more entry' (src/venues.mjs:13, README.md:222) is not true: src/config.mjs:8 and src/settings.mjs:82, :111 hard-code the venues.
What works. Very clear venues/trades split on the scanner, correct trader-from-Transfers rule, and a tight group budget summary. Missing-contract replies stay soft instead of exiting.
To fix. Posts scale less by trade size than B: add a compact size cue (dots/bar) so a $10k buy and a dust buy are distinguishable at a glance. In a burst summary, prefer listing the largest remaining trades, not only tx links.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | auto-claude (riotallo300697) | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | Group fit: feed posts use a USD size bar plus short phone-friendly lines, and summary.mjs weights bursts so the two full posts keep the biggest trades while the third summarises the rest; backlog catch-up also shares one budget. Decoding: venues.mjs + tradeOf follow AVNU-then-Ekubo netting, traderOf uses Transfer nets with fee-index exclusion, and aggregator hops via venue transfers cover multi-hop routes the brief cares about. Names/prices: reverse names are forward-verified with caching limits; Pragma prices age/sources and stale handling are clear, USD floors need fresh quotes.

Names/prices: reverse is forward-checked each pass; Pragma path reports age/sources/stale and refuses USD floors without oracle config.

| 4 | ChaosChef (mike0182) | 7 | 8 | 7 | 7 | Group fit: burst summarisation exists via ledger.summarize and the README states the 3-post rule, but post layout (plain Trader: lines, less size scaling) is weaker for phone glance than A/B. Decoding: trades path nets venues and resolves traders; checks passed identically, with slightly less explicit fee/hop commentary in the core modules than B. Names/prices: reverse + forward verify and Pragma /price with stale marking work; fewer safeguards around lookup storms than B's MAX_LOOKUPS.
