The 69-byte C->D object was a VALUE: this much of this asset belongs to this
owner. A value says what moves; it never said what to do with it. So D consumed
the intent, credited the taker's account, and stopped. Nothing placed an order,
nothing crossed, no proceeds existed, the settlement export never fired, Phase B
had no object, and the settle reverted. eth_getLogs on 0x9999 returns zero events
on every chain since genesis because the seam was unreachable by construction,
not because it was misconfigured.
A swap intent now appends the operation the taker authorized:
market(32) | side(1) | limitPrice(8) | size(8)
onto the unchanged value head, giving a 118-byte intent object. Composed, not
braided: the head is byte-for-byte what every settlement and LP consumer already
reads, so their golden vectors stay valid, and width alone discriminates the two
readings. 69 is a value object and instructs nothing; 118 is an instruction. A
69-byte object is refused as an intent rather than imported with an invented
market and side, which would be an order the taker never signed.
The limit is required. A cross-chain taker cannot re-price mid-flight and their
order runs in a block they do not control, so an unbounded market order across
the seam is precisely the sandwich the spent witness exists to refuse — and at a
zero limit that check is vacuous. Refused at submission, before any principal
moves, rather than sent out naked. Size is derived from the taker's own limit
(exact integer division on the PriceInt grid), so the lock can never exceed what
was locked.
The discovery trait rotates to .v2. That is the flag day, and it is what keeps
the two generations from ever disagreeing: an old D node enumerates .v1, finds no
v2 object, emits no import, and goes on validating everything else; a new D node
enumerates .v2 and never touches a stale op-less object. Neither can execute the
other's intent, so the changeover costs seam liveness alone.
isMarket and limitIsUpper are gone from the wire and from IntentRequest — every
seam order is a limit order, and a BUY's limit is its ceiling. One declaration of
each fact instead of two to reconcile.

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.
