PR #556: Producers Bugfix

Link: https://github.com/greymass/unicove/pull/556
Merged: 2025-12-18
Body Summary: Fixed integer overflow bugs in block producer vote weight calculations.

Discussion (7 comments):

Topic: Vote weight calculation accuracy and integer overflow prevention
Challenge: Vote decay parameter was incorrect, causing inaccurate vote weight display. Console errors showing “Number overflows int64” on some networks.
Solution: Applied vote weight clamping to prevent Int64 overflow, corrected decay calculations, and verified fixes across different network configurations.

PR #557: Modified Vote Decay + Removed Precision for Calculations

Link: https://github.com/greymass/unicove/pull/557
Merged: 2025-12-18
Body Summary: Additional fix for vote decay calculations, removing precision that was causing calculation issues.

PR #547: Sentiment Styles

Link: https://github.com/greymass/unicove/pull/547
Merged: 2025-12-01
Discussion (6 comments):

Topic: Optimistic UI behavior for sentiment voting
Discussion: Clarification on when optimistic state should be applied - after transaction broadcast (anticipating block inclusion), not on button click. This prevents incorrect state display when transactions are cancelled or fail.

greymass/robo2-temp (Private)

Repository: https://github.com/greymass/robo2-temp
Activity: Significant development on initial branch
Visibility: Private repository (migration workspace)

Strategic Context: Roborovski v2 is blockchain API infrastructure that provides indexed access to chain data. It powers not just filtered history queries but also specialized APIs like msigs, sentiment polling, and Totems (modular tokens). Applications can build on top of Roborovski rather than processing raw chain data.

The robo2-temp repository is the migration workspace for extracting Roborovski v2 components from private infrastructure into a publicly shareable codebase. The goal is to release this as open-source infrastructure that others in the Antelope ecosystem can build on for their own contracts and services.

Architecture Overview:

Services:

historywriter: High-performance block indexer that reads nodeos trace files and produces sliced history storage
accounthistory: Service providing the get_activity API endpoint for account-scoped action queries with cursor-based pagination
chainstats: Statistics aggregation service
transactions: Transaction lookup service

Libraries:

historyreader: Read processed history from sliced storage (supports local files, HTTP, Unix sockets, streaming)
encoding: Fast JSON (JSONiter) and binary utilities
chain: Antelope primitives (name↔uint64, asset parsing, block time)
historystream: WebSocket streaming protocol for history data
tracefiles: Read nodeos trace files (500-block strides)
fcraw: Low-level FC binary format parsing
canonical: Identify canonical vs forked actions
abicache: ABI caching and decoding
logger, config, profiler, perfmetrics, querytrace: Operational utilities

Work Summary: December development covered both migration and feature work:

History Reader Infrastructure:

historyreader abstraction and library refactoring
Slice reader with index caching for paginated requests
Megaslices implementation
Slice validation, repair, and caching (LRU + Recent)
Migration to bulksync pattern

API Development:

get_activity API endpoint implementation
First version of roboproxy
API metrics and query tracing
HTTP unix socket support
Pagination cursor implementation

Performance Optimizations:

Parallel lookups and validation
Block caching and streaming
Lazy action parsing
Index caching for faster lookups with invalidation
Reduced allocations and better GC

Canonical Filtering:

Added canonical flag on indexes
Canonical filtering for queries
Fork handling improvements

Stats Aggregator:

First stats aggregator implementation
chainstats integration

ABI Handling:

Added ABI decoding
ABI verification
Allow omit of empty fields via decoding

Status: Active migration of Roborovski v2 from private infrastructure to public-ready codebase. Will be merged into a public repository once cleanup is complete.

Wharfkit Organization

wharfkit/session

Repository: https://github.com/wharfkit/session
Activity: 1 PR merged, 23 commits on sessionkey branches

Strategic Context: Session key implementation is a major new feature enabling automatic local signing for specific contract actions without wallet prompts. This improves UX for gaming and other high-frequency transaction use cases.

PR #101: Session Key Dafuga

Link: https://github.com/wharfkit/session/pull/101
Merged: 2025-12-20
Body Summary: Session key implementation improvements and fixes.

Discussion (7 comments):

Topic: Session key wallet visibility and setup workflow
Discussion: Explored whether session key wallet should show up in wallet plugin picker. Decided to use login plugin approach for session key setup rather than automatic setup.
Technical Decision: Session key setup works through login plugin, keeping it out of wallet selection UI while maintaining proper restore functionality.
Authorization Handling: Placeholder authorizations need to resolve differently depending on whether session keys are in use, handled with custom resolution logic.

Notable Technical Discussions

Discussion: Optimistic UI for Sentiment Voting

Location: greymass/unicove PR #547
Link: https://github.com/greymass/unicove/pull/547
Comment Count: 6 comments

Topic: When to apply optimistic state updates for sentiment voting

Key Discussion Points:

Optimistic UI should apply AFTER transaction broadcast, not on button click
Optimistic approach anticipates successful block inclusion and provides immediate feedback after wallet process completes
If applied on button click, cancelled or failed transactions would still show state change

Outcome: Merged with understanding that optimistic UI timing may be addressed in follow-up PR.

Discussion: Session Key Wallet Visibility

Location: wharfkit/session PR #101
Link: https://github.com/wharfkit/session/pull/101
Comment Count: 7 review comments

Topic: How to handle session key wallet visibility in wallet selection

Key Discussion Points:

Session key wallet should not appear in wallet plugin picker
Initial approach of excluding from list broke restore functionality
Considered automatic session key setup vs login plugin approach

Decision: Use login plugin for session key setup, keeping it out of wallet selection UI while maintaining proper restore functionality.

Technical Implementation: Placeholder authorizations resolved differently depending on session key usage, handled with custom resolution logic.

Discussion: Vote Weight Integer Overflow

Location: greymass/unicove PR #556
Link: https://github.com/greymass/unicove/pull/556
Comment Count: 7 comments

Topic: Fixing producer vote weight calculation bugs

Key Discussion Points:

Vote decay parameter was incorrect, showing inaccurate vote totals
Int64 overflow errors on networks with high precision vote weights (e.g., WAX)
Vote weight clamping needed to prevent overflow

Outcome: Applied clamping fix and corrected decay calculations. Verified across network configurations.
