The 0x0500..0010 GraphQL precompile (a registered StatefulPrecompiledContract) ran the consensus Run path through four nondeterminism/halt hazards: 1. NIL-CLIENT PANIC (chain halt). The default instance holds a nil client until VM init wires one; Query called a method on the nil interface with no guard, panicking the unrecovered dispatch path and halting every validator that processed the tx. -> nil now returns typed ErrClientNotInitialized. 2. time.Now()/wall-clock (startTime, cache TTL, stats timing) — diverges on per-validator clock skew. -> removed entirely. 3. Process-global in-memory cache (map keyed by query, wall-clock TTL). A warm vs cold validator returned stale-vs-fresh data and a different GasUsed — both consensus-visible. -> removed; every query executes against local DB state. 4. Process-global stats counters mutated per call and returned on-chain via getStats — cross-tx mutable state. -> removed; getStats returns deterministic zero. And executeMultiChainQuery used goroutines whose scheduler-random order decided the result set and 'first error' -> now sequential in TargetChains order (deterministic results + first-error). The precompile is now a stateless pure function of (input, local G-Chain DB): no mutex, no cache, no stats, no goroutines, no wall-clock. Regression: TestGraphQL_NilClientReturnsTypedErrorNotPanic (no panic, typed error via both Query and the Run dispatch path), TestGraphQL_DeterministicAcrossRuns (identical Data+GasUsed, no cache discount), TestGraphQL_MultiChainSequentialDeterministic (chains visited in request order, byte-identical output x50), TestGraphQL_MultiChainFirstErrorDeterministic (first error in request order).
Lux Precompiled Contracts
Native EVM precompiles for the Lux blockchain. Each precompile is a Go package that implements contract.StatefulPrecompiledContract and registers via modules.RegisterModule() in its init().
Geth provides NewPrecompileAdapter() to wrap these into geth-compatible precompiles. L1 chains select which precompiles to enable via PrecompileOverrider.

Structure
Each precompile follows this pattern:
<name>/
├── contract.go # Run(), RequiredGas(), Address()
├── contract_test.go # Tests with known vectors
├── module.go # init() → modules.RegisterModule()
└── I<Name>.sol # Solidity interface (optional)
Adding a Precompile
- Pick an address in a reserved range
- Implement
contract.StatefulPrecompiledContract - Register via
modules.RegisterModule()ininit() - Add tests (valid, invalid, gas, edge cases)
- Wire into your L1 via
PrecompileOverrideror geth'sLuxPrecompiles()
Building
go build ./...
go test ./...
go test -bench=. ./sr25519/ # benchmark a specific package
CGO is required for sr25519 (sr25519-donna C library). All other packages are pure Go.
