# Judge Technical Audit Note

## What a technical judge should verify first

1. The program is live on devnet.
2. Proposal state is fetched from real program accounts.
3. The lifecycle is enforced on-chain, not simulated in the UI.
4. Execution is guarded by both state transitions and account validation.

## Source-of-truth files

- On-chain logic: `programs/private-dao/src/lib.rs`
- End-to-end lifecycle: `tests/full-flow-test.ts`
- Demo walkthrough: `tests/demo.ts`
- Core behavior tests: `tests/private-dao.ts`
- Live proof note: `docs/live-proof.md`
- Dedicated V3 proof note: `docs/test-wallet-live-proof-v3.generated.md`
- V3 hardening notes: `docs/governance-hardening-v3.md`, `docs/settlement-hardening-v3.md`
- Live frontend: `repo root Next.js export`
- Android-native counterpart: `apps/android-native/`

## Verified strengths

### Lifecycle correctness

- proposal creation exists on-chain
- commit and reveal are separate enforced phases
- finalize is phase-gated
- execute is timelock-gated
- cancel and veto are explicit authority surfaces

### Treasury safety

- `SendSol` checks recipient configuration
- `SendToken` checks mint alignment and token-account wiring
- execution is tied to proposal state and treasury PDA semantics

### Voting integrity

- commit binding uses `sha256(vote || salt || proposal_pubkey || voter_pubkey)`
- vote weight is snapshotted at commit time
- reveal must match the stored commitment
- delegated paths are proposal-scoped, not generic
- direct/delegated overlap is rejected on-chain and mirrored in operator-facing surfaces
- additive V3 governance proof demonstrates token-supply quorum snapshots and a dedicated reveal rebate vault without reinterpreting legacy proposals

### Product proof surface

- live frontend exposes real proposal state
- Proof Center includes real transaction links
- Android-native app mirrors the same devnet program and lifecycle semantics

## Remaining technical deductions a judge could make

These are the honest limits today:

- the repository is governance-strong but not yet a full Ranger vault strategy implementation
- devnet proof exists, but mainnet deployment is not claimed here
- additive V3 hardening is Devnet-proven, but still not presented as a mainnet custody claim
- strategy alpha, APY, and vault performance require a strategy layer in addition to this repository
- Android build verification requires a full Android SDK environment outside this shell

## Why this still scores highly

The important distinction is that the project is not faking product depth:

- the contract is real
- the lifecycle is real
- execution is real
- the proof surface is real

That matters more to a technical judge than inflated claims.
