Notable Technical Work

Multisig Account Support in Unicove

Context: February saw comprehensive multisig functionality added to Unicove.

The Business Need: Users needed the ability to manage multisig accounts directly through Unicove without relying on command-line tools or separate interfaces. This includes viewing permission structures, creating proposals, and managing approvals.

The Technical Challenge: Multisig accounts have complex permission structures with multiple authorities, thresholds, and time delays. Managing these through a user-friendly interface requires careful UX design and robust handling of various multisig configurations.

The Solution: Implement comprehensive multisig support including:

  • Multisig wallet plugin for WharfKit session management
  • Account authority page visualizing permission hierarchies
  • Multisig session display for managing connected accounts
  • Integration with existing multisig proposal infrastructure
  • Enhanced resources display for multisig contexts

Work Completed:

  • PR #384 with multisig wallet plugin, authority pages, and session management
  • Support for time.eosn contract checktime action
  • Improved activity filtering to handle multisig transactions
  • DateTime input components for time-delayed proposals

Technical Impact: This work brings full multisig account management into Unicove’s user-friendly interface, making complex multisig operations accessible to non-technical users.

Network Abstraction Architecture

Context: February included major architectural work to abstract network configuration in Unicove, enabling better multi-chain support.

The Challenge: Unicove needed to support multiple Antelope blockchains with different features, token configurations, and capabilities. Hardcoded network-specific logic was becoming difficult to maintain and extend.

The Solution: Implement network abstraction layer allowing:

  • Dynamic network configuration through environment variables
  • Chain-specific feature flags
  • Flexible token and resource handling per network
  • Easier addition of new Antelope chains

Work Completed:

  • PR #355: Network Abstraction (base implementation)
  • PR #361: Additional chain abstraction
  • PR #359: Reworked environmental variables
  • PR #363: More config optimization

Technical Impact: This architectural change makes Unicove truly multi-chain capable, allowing it to support any Antelope blockchain with appropriate configuration. It removes hardcoded network assumptions and enables features to be enabled/disabled per chain based on capabilities.

Cloudflare Backend for Web Authenticator

Context: February completed the backend infrastructure transition for Web Authenticator started in January, moving to Cloudflare edge deployment.

The Challenge: The Express backend built in January needed to be deployed on Cloudflare’s edge network for global performance while maintaining database connectivity and WebAuthn security.

The Solution: Implement Cloudflare-compatible backend that:

  • Runs on Cloudflare Workers/Pages
  • Maintains database connectivity for account tracking
  • Preserves WebAuthn security model
  • Provides global edge distribution

Work Completed:

  • PR #4: Adding Cloudflare backend
  • PR #9: Refactoring state management

Technical Impact: Completes the architectural transition from purely client-side to edge-deployed client-server architecture. Enables features like account recovery and cross-device account management while maintaining fast global performance and WebAuthn security.

Links:


Unified Account Creation

Context: February showed continued integration work connecting Anchor Android to the centralized account creation infrastructure (account-creation-portal/sextant).

The Business Need: Provide consistent, reliable account creation across all Greymass products (Anchor, Web Authenticator, Unicove, MetaMask Snap) using shared infrastructure.

Work Completed:

  • PR #673 in anchor-mobile-android: Integrated portal-based account creation
  • PR #25, #26 in account-creation-portal: Account name improvements

Technical Impact: Ensures all Greymass products benefit from improvements to account creation infrastructure. Centralizes logic for account validation, premium names, and error handling.

For Downstream Agents

Summary Writer (agents/summary.md):

  • Focus on the multisig functionality added to Unicove (major user-facing feature)
  • Emphasize network abstraction enabling better multi-chain support
  • Note Web Authenticator backend completion (Cloudflare edge deployment)
  • Highlight maintenance work on Anchor Android (stability improvements)
  • Note the absence of blog posts (quiet announcement month)
  • This was primarily a development and stabilization month following January’s foundational work
  • Reference github-projects.md for display names and descriptions
  • Review prior months’ README.md for narrative continuity

Technical Writer (agents/technical.md):

  • Deep dive into multisig support architecture and UX
  • Explain network abstraction benefits for multi-chain deployment
  • Document Cloudflare backend architecture for Web Authenticator
  • Cover unified account creation infrastructure benefits
  • Note the 33 PRs in Unicove representing heavy release cycle with iterative improvements
  • Include links to all major PRs
  • Explain how February’s work builds on January’s foundations (unicove-contracts, backend work)
  • Review prior months’ technical.md for project continuity

Both agents: February was a feature development and stabilization month focused on bringing major new capabilities to Unicove (multisig, network abstraction), completing architectural transitions (Web Authenticator Cloudflare backend), and maintaining stability (Anchor Android fixes). The high PR count in Unicove (33 PRs) reflects a heavy release cycle with frequent hotfixes as major features were deployed and stabilized. Focus on WHAT was built and WHY it matters for users and developers. No blog posts or public announcements, but significant technical progress.
