Nine commits on the intent corridors, all about a swap ending in the right state:

  • a spent lockup is judged by the preimage, not by the spend, so a send is never reported failed on an unreadable one
  • an ambiguous send funding is not a failure — it settles from the chain or from the invoice's expiry
  • receives nobody funded close on their deadline, and a late lockup reopens them
  • a status decided from a snapshot is written only while the swap still holds the status it was read in
  • quotes are held to the amount asked for, and payouts below the Arkade dust limit are refused on both receive legs
  • a Lightning receive can take its payout key from a contract the caller already has
  • a wallet that cannot sign may claim and refund through the covenant's signerless leaves, where the deployment opts in

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Watch-only wallets can claim received swaps and refund sent swaps when signerless fallback is enabled.
    • Lightning receives can use an existing payout contract, avoiding a new address derivation.
    • Swaps closed after an uncertain or missed funding event can be reopened and monitored again.
    • Funding results distinguish confirmed transactions from outcomes that remain unknown.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Receive quotes are checked against requested amounts and payout dust limits.
    • Unfunded swaps are closed after their deadlines, while late-arriving lockups are handled during reconciliation.
    • Safer status updates prevent concurrent changes from being overwritten.
  • Documentation

    • Updated corridor guides with the new options and swap lifecycle behavior.

Walkthrough

This change adds signerless claim and refund support, receive quote validation and payout-contract reuse, and revised swap funding, reconciliation, closure, and reopening behavior. It also adds conditional intent saves and updates related tests, documentation, and wallet sample behavior.

Changes

Signerless wallet execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure signerless claim and refund paths
NArk.ArkadeIntents/ArkadeIntentsOptions.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Hosting/ArkadeIntentsCollectionExtensions.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/*, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainIntentsClient.Receive.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/NonInteractiveClientTests.cs, README.md, docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md
The new SignerlessFallback option defaults to false. When enabled and a wallet has no signer, Lightning and onchain claims and Lightning refunds use signerless paths. Tests cover watch-only claims and refunds.

Receive quote checks and payout contracts

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reuse Lightning payout contracts
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Receive.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeIntentsService.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningReceivePayoutContractTests.cs, README.md, docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md
The Lightning receive APIs accept an optional payoutContract. The client uses it instead of deriving a contract when no linked receiver is present. Tests check whether contract derivation occurs.
Validate receive quote amounts and dust limits
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningReceiveGates.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Receive.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainReceiveGates.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainIntentsClient.Receive.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningReceiveGatesTests.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainReceiveGatesTests.cs, README.md, docs/articles/onchain-corridors.md
Lightning and onchain receive flows reject payouts below the server dust limit. Onchain quote checks also verify that exact-in charges the requested amount and exact-out delivers at least the requested amount. Tests cover refusal reasons and threshold values.

Swap persistence and lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Conditionally save and reopen closed swaps
NArk.ArkadeIntents/IArkadeIntentStorage.cs, NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Models/ArkadeSwapMetadata.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/SwapWatch.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeIntentsService.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainIntentsClient.Receive.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/ArkadeIntentsReconciliationTests.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/Onchain/OnchainReceiveOrchestrationTests.cs, docs/articles/onchain-corridors.md
Storage adds TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent, which saves only when the stored status matches the expected status. Clock-closed swaps record metadata and update contract activity. ReopenAsync restores eligible closed swaps. Onchain receive swaps with no UTXOs can close after the abandonment grace period.
Track uncertain and expired funding
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Send.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningSendGates.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeIntentsService.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/ArkadeIntentsReconciliationTests.cs, samples/NArk.Wallet/NArk.Wallet.Client/Pages/Swap.razor, samples/NArk.Wallet/NArk.Wallet.Client/Services/*, README.md, docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md
Lightning send results now include nullable FundingTxid and FundingConfirmed. Failures that may have reached the server leave the swap in Funding; specific pre-server funding failures cancel and rethrow. The advance pass cancels unfunded sends after invoice expiry plus 600 seconds.
Reconcile spend verdicts and clock transitions
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeIntentsService.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeSwapIntentMonitoringService.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeSwapStateMachine.cs, NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/SwapSpendVerdict.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/ArkadeIntentsReconciliationTests.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/ArkadeSwapIntentMonitoringServiceTests.cs, NArk.Tests/ArkadeIntents/ArkadeSwapStateMachineTests.cs, README.md, docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md
Reconciliation uses lockup fate to determine spend outcomes and conditionally saves status changes. Unreadable spend details do not produce a status update. Clock transitions settle receive swaps, and tests cover no-claim outcomes and concurrent status changes.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 298b5

Swap status updates can still overwrite each other under concurrency. An on-board swap that is being claimed or refunded can be closed as never funded, and the wallet then stops watching its Arkade contracts. Closing a receive can also stop watching a contract the caller reused for something else. Resolve these lifecycle and persistence issues before merging.

Update the unconditional cooperative-method descriptions.

With SignerlessFallback enabled and no signer, ClaimLightningReceiveAsync and the existing refund method select signerless execution. Line 101 still says the claim method “stays cooperative,” and README.md Line 1589 says the existing claim and refund methods remain cooperative. Qualify both statements and update the affected public XML summaries to describe the option-dependent behavior. As per coding guidelines, a public-surface change “MUST update” the touched API’s XML doc comments, the README usage section, and the corresponding article.

Do not close an on-board swap from an empty HTLC UTXO query.

GetUtxosAsync returns current unspent outputs, so both a solver claim and a user refund can produce an empty result. ClaimReceiveCoreAsync spends the Arkade contract before it sets and saves Fulfilled. The refund path broadcasts the L1 refund before it sets and saves Cancelled. During either interval, this branch can classify a non-terminal swap as “never funded.” SwapWatch.CloseAsync also deactivates the Arkade lockup and payout before the conditional save.

Resolve the HTLC funding and spend history before closing the swap. If the history does not prove that the HTLC was never funded, keep the outcome ambiguous and keep the Arkade contract watched.

Persist the cancellation before deactivating the contracts.

This is the same ordering defect as SwapWatch.CloseAsync, but this caller also needs to handle the conditional-save result. Split the close operation into marking the intent and unwatching the contracts. Save the marked intent first. Only unwatch the contracts and return the closed outcome when TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent succeeds. Treat false as a concurrent update and do not report the swap as closed.

CloseAsync writes contract state before the conditional save, and a failed save does not undo it.

CloseAsync changes the in-memory status and then persists Inactive for the lockup and the payout. The callers (AdvanceAllAsync and RefundOnchainReceiveAsync) call TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent only after that. If the conditional save returns false because another writer moved the swap, the swap row keeps the newer status, but its contracts stay Inactive. AdvanceAllAsync reverts only intent.Status and makes no compensating contract update.

Split the method. Apply the status and the marker, save conditionally, and deactivate the contracts only after a successful save. ReopenAsync needs the same order.

Closing a receive also deactivates a payout contract that the caller supplied.

SetAsync reads NonInteractiveClaim.ReceiverPkScript from the lockup and changes that contract's activity state. In ReceiveFromLightningCoreAsync and ReceiveFromOnchainCoreAsync, that script is the payout address, and the payout can be payoutContract supplied by the caller. This PR adds that option so that callers can reuse an existing receive contract, for example one already derived for an invoice.

Here is how it fails. A caller passes its own receive contract as payoutContract, and the swap is never funded. AdvanceAllAsync or RefundOnchainReceiveAsync then calls CloseAsync, which sets the caller's contract to Inactive. The wallet stops watching an address that is still in use for something else. ReopenAsync later sets the contract to AwaitingFundsBeforeDeactivate instead of its original state, so the original activity state is lost in both cases.

Toggle the payout contract only when this swap derived it. One way: when negotiating, record a metadata flag (or the prior activity state) if payoutContract was null. Then check that flag in SetAsync before the second UpdateContractActivityState call.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The EF Core override still has a check-then-act race. Make the status guard atomic.

The comment says "The guard is the read itself", but the read and the write are separate statements. ArkadeSwapIntentEntity.Configure does not mark Status as a concurrency token. Because of that, the UPDATE that SaveChangesAsync sends filters only on Id.

Here is how the race happens. The advance pass (ReconcileOneAsync or AdvanceAllAsync) and the monitor (UpdateStatus) each read the row while it is Pending. Each decides a different next status. The monitor commits first. The advance pass then commits over it, because its earlier read still passed existing.Status == expectedStatus. This is the lost update that the interface remarks say the method prevents ("a swap the counterparty had already filled went back to awaiting its refund"). This override is the one the XML docs tell atomic backends to supply, so it must actually be atomic.

Fix: make Status a concurrency token. EF then adds WHERE Status = @original`` to the UPDATE, and a row count of zero raises `DbUpdateConcurrencyException`, which the method maps to `false`. A concurrency token on an ordinary column needs no schema migration. With the token in place, `SaveArkadeSwapIntent` and `UpdateStatus` can also throw that exception under a race. Surfacing that exception is better than overwriting silently.

As another option, use ExecuteUpdateAsync with Where(x => x.Id == intent.Id && x.Status == expectedStatus) and treat zero affected rows as false.

The label says "Refunded" for sends that were never funded.

This PR adds new ways for a BtcToLightning swap to become Cancelled with no lockup at all: coin selection fails before submit, or CancelUnfundedSendAsync runs after the invoice expires. Those rows carry ClosedWithoutChainEventAt, and no sats moved. "Refunded" tells the user that funds went out and came back, which did not happen. Use the marker to pick the text.

Arkana review — PR #215 — swap outcomes from chain proof

Overall shape is good: the verdict-before-transition pattern for HTLC spends is the right fix, the dust/amount guards are correct, and the test coverage for the new paths is solid. One correctness bug needs to land before this does.


Must fix

EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent is not atomic

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs:978-997

The implementation creates a new DbContext per call, reads the existing row, checks the status in C# memory, applies changes if it matches, then calls SaveChangesAsync. There is no database-level transaction, no optimistic concurrency token, and no WHERE clause in the resulting UPDATE. Two concurrent callers that both read the same existing.Status will both pass the != expectedStatus guard and both reach SaveChangesAsync; the last write wins.

The inline comment — "The guard is the read itself: the row is only written while it still holds the status the caller decided from" — describes single-threaded sequential behaviour, not concurrent behaviour. The scenario the PR description calls out ("a swap the counterparty had already filled went back to awaiting its refund") is still possible whenever the monitor and the advance pass race on the same row.

Minimum fix: replace the read-check-apply-save with a raw-SQL conditional update and check rows affected:

var rows = await db.Database.ExecuteSqlRawAsync(
    @"UPDATE ""ArkadeSwapIntentEntities"" SET ""Status"" = {0}, ... WHERE ""Id"" = {1} AND ""Status"" = {2}",
    (int)intent.Status, intent.Id, (int)expectedStatus, cancellationToken);
return rows == 1;

Alternatively: open a SERIALIZABLE transaction and re-read the row inside it. EF Core's IsConcurrencyToken / IsRowVersion on the Status column is a third route — it will throw a DbUpdateConcurrencyException on a stale write, which can be caught and returned as false.


Default IArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent silently racy

NArk.ArkadeIntents/IArkadeIntentStorage.cs:57-67

The same read-then-write issue exists in the default interface implementation. InMemoryArkadeIntentStorage (used in all E2E tests) inherits it without overriding. This is safe only because E2E tests are single-threaded. The remarks say "should override" — that phrasing is too soft for correctness-critical code in a protocol that custodies money. Suggest either:

  • Change to abstract / explicit NotImplementedException so omitting the override is a compile-time or immediate runtime error, or
  • Rename with a /// <remarks>UNSAFE IN CONCURRENT CALLERS — override in every real storage backend.</remarks> header that makes the danger visible.

Should fix

FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid nullable is a breaking API change

NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Send.cs:180-182

string FundingTxid → string? FundingTxid. Any caller compiled against the previous public surface that accesses .FundingTxid as non-null without first checking FundingConfirmed will silently receive null. Because this is a record parameter, language-level nullability analysis will warn only if the caller's project has nullable enabled. The semantic change (unknown-outcome funding now returns rather than throws) is the right call; the API change deserves a changelog entry and should be called out explicitly in release notes.


Worth noting

SwapWatch.SetAsync uses LightningCorridor.LoadLockupAsync for OnchainToBtc receives
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/SwapWatch.cs:48-55

CloseAsync / ReopenAsync are called for both LightningToBtc and OnchainToBtc from AdvanceAllAsync, and SetAsync unconditionally calls LightningCorridor.LoadLockupAsync. If the Arkade-side lockup structure is identical for both corridor types this is correct; the name alone makes it look like a narrow function applied broadly. A one-line comment explaining why the call is safe across both types would save the next reader the lookup.

NextOnClock closes LightningToBtc + Pending but not OnchainToBtc + Pending
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeSwapStateMachine.cs:300-301

The asymmetry is intentional (the on-board's L1 refund is still actionable), the test covers it, but the LightningToBtc or OnchainToBtc pattern seen elsewhere in the switch could mislead a reader into thinking this case was left out by accident. A brief inline note like // OnchainToBtc excluded: the L1 HTLC refund is still reachable would close the question immediately.

AdvanceAllAsync in-memory status after a failed conditional save in CancelUnfundedSendAsync
NArk.ArkadeIntents/Services/ArkadeIntentsService.cs:801-803

When TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent returns false, CancelUnfundedSendAsync leaves intent.Status == Cancelled in memory. The subsequent NextAction(intent) then returns None and AdvanceAsync is not called — which is the right outcome, since storage still holds the pre-cancel status and the next pass starts fresh. It is non-obvious that this is safe; a brief comment ("status stays Cancelled in memory; the next pass re-reads from storage") would make the invariant explicit.


Checks

  • Protocol paths covered: VTXO spend verdict before transition, unfunded close/reopen, signerless fallback, dust checks — all present with tests.
  • No key material handled, no new authenticated-remote calls.
  • No cross-repo consumers of the changed types in ts-sdk, go-sdk, or rust-sdk.
  • FundedLightningSend breaking change is dotnet-SDK-only but is a public API change — see above.
  • Danger warning "source changed with no test changes" is a false positive; test changes are substantial.

Fix the EfCore atomicity issue and the two concerns will be closed.

Follow-up review — db49ea5 — 1 prior finding fixed, 2 still open, 1 residual note

One commit since my last pass. Two files changed: doc-comment placement in OnchainReceiveGates.cs (no logic), atomicity fix in EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent. Prior-issue scorecard below, then one residual concern from the new code.


Prior-issue closure

1 — EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent atomicity (was: Must Fix) — Fixed by db49ea5

ExecuteUpdateAsync(...).Where(x.Id == intent.Id && x.Status == expectedStatus) generates a single UPDATE … WHERE Id = @id AND Status = @expectedStatus, making the status transition a single DB statement. That closes the original race: two concurrent callers can no longer both pass the old C#-memory guard and both land in SaveChangesAsync with the same old status.

One residual concern introduced by the two-phase write — see new finding below.


2 — Default IArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent silently racy (was: Should Fix) — Still open

NArk.ArkadeIntents/IArkadeIntentStorage.cs default implementation is unchanged: it still reads with GetArkadeSwapIntents, checks stored.Status in C# memory, then calls SaveArkadeSwapIntent — no atomicity. The remarks were improved ("The default implementation reads and writes without a transaction, so a storage backend that can do this atomically should override it") but the advice is still "should override", which is easy to miss when adding a test double or a second storage backend.

The EfCore backend overrides correctly. The in-memory backend used in all tests inherits the default. Tests are single-threaded so no failure surfaces there, but any future concurrent integration test double would silently carry the race.

Suggested hardening (unchanged from prior pass): either add a /// <remarks>CAUTION: not safe under concurrent callers — every real backend must override.</remarks> header that is unmissable in IDE tooltips, or provide a default that throws NotSupportedException so omitting the override is a loud runtime failure rather than a silent data race.


3 — FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid nullable is a breaking API change (was: Should Fix) — Still open

NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Send.cs:52 still declares string? FundingTxid. Not touched by this commit. Callers compiled against an older surface that dereferences .FundingTxid without a null check will receive null silently when FundingConfirmed is false. This needs a changelog / release-note callout at minimum.


4, 5, 6 — Worth-noting items (SwapWatch comment, NextOnClock asymmetry note, AdvanceAllAsync in-memory status invariant) — No longer tracking

These were editorial / clarity suggestions. The code in those files was not changed in this commit and the suggestions were not blocking; I won't carry them forward.


New residual concern from db49ea5 — two-phase write leaves status and metadata transiently inconsistent

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs

After the atomic ExecuteUpdateAsync writes only the Status column, the code does a FirstAsync + Apply + SaveChangesAsync to persist the remaining fields. Between those two writes there is a window where the row holds the new status but the old metadata — for example, Status = Claimable but the PaymentPreimage metadata key not yet persisted.

A concurrent advance pass that reads in that window would see a Claimable swap with no preimage, fail the claim, and retry on the next tick — by which point the second SaveChangesAsync will have landed. No money is at risk and the window is narrow; it is a degraded-attempt rather than a correctness failure.

The clean fix is a single DB transaction wrapping both writes:

await using var tx = await db.Database.BeginTransactionAsync(IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted, cancellationToken);

var claimed = await set
    .Where(x => x.Id == intent.Id && x.Status == expectedStatus)
    .ExecuteUpdateAsync(u => u.SetProperty(x => x.Status, intent.Status), cancellationToken);

if (claimed == 0) { /* … insert path, unchanged … */ return true; }

var existing = await set.FirstAsync(x => x.Id == intent.Id, cancellationToken);
Apply(intent, existing);
await db.SaveChangesAsync(cancellationToken);
await tx.CommitAsync(cancellationToken);
Notify(intent);
return true;

This is not a hard blocker at the same severity as the original issue — the swap self-heals on the next advance tick — but it is worth addressing before the corridor goes to production.


Unrelated same-file observation (not a new finding, for awareness)

EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.UpdateStatus (lines 71–101, untouched by this commit) still uses the old read-then-SaveChanges pattern: it filters the row in a LINQ FirstOrDefaultAsync, sets the status on the tracked entity, and calls SaveChangesAsync. Without a concurrency token on the entity, the generated UPDATE is WHERE Id = @id only — the status guard from the LINQ filter is not carried into the SQL. This is the same race the TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent fix addressed. I did not flag it in my prior pass; raising it here as an awareness item so it lands on the backlog.


Summary: The must-fix atomicity issue is resolved. Two should-fix items remain (default-impl warning strength; FundingTxid changelog). One new residual concern from the two-phase write in the fix itself. Recommend addressing the transaction wrapper and the default-impl warning before merge.

Follow-up review — fa1d26e — 1 prior issue fixed, 2 still open

One commit since my last pass, one file changed (, +20/-0). Prior-issue scorecard below; no new findings from this diff.


Prior-issue closure

Issue #2 — Default IArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent / E2E stub carries the race — Fixed by fa1d26e

The commit adds a parallel _committed dictionary to InMemoryArkadeIntentStorage that tracks the status as last written to storage, independently of the caller's mutable object. TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent now guards against _committed[id] rather than against the object that GetArkadeSwapIntents returns — which, in an identity-based in-memory store, is the same object the caller already mutated, so the default implementation's check was always comparing the new status against itself and never refused a save.

Both SaveArkadeSwapIntent and UpdateStatus now update _committed, keeping the shadow consistent. The new-intent case (key absent from _committed) falls through correctly. The fix is sound for the single-threaded E2E context.

One remaining wording concern from the default interface implementation (IArkadeIntentStorage.cs) is still open: the remarks say "should override" and this is not enough to prevent a third backend from silently inheriting the racy default. That is a hardening suggestion, not a blocker; the two real backends both override correctly now.


Issue #3 — Two-phase write in EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent leaves status and metadata transiently inconsistent — Still open

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs is untouched. The atomic ExecuteUpdateAsync writes only Status, followed by a separate FirstAsync + Apply + SaveChangesAsync for the remaining metadata fields. Between those two writes a concurrent reader sees the new status with the old metadata (e.g. Claimable with no PaymentPreimage). The swap self-heals on the next advance tick, so this is not a loss-of-funds risk, but it is a live production concern in a system that custodies money. Wrapping both writes in a single ReadCommitted transaction (as shown in my previous pass) closes the window cleanly.


Issue #4 — FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid nullable is a breaking API change — Still open

NArk.ArkadeIntents/Lightning/LightningIntentsClient.Send.cs is untouched. string? FundingTxid on a record type remains a silent breaking change for callers compiled against the previous surface without nullable enabled. A changelog / release-note callout is needed at minimum.


Checks on the new code

  • ContinueWith(_ => true, cancellationToken) chained on an already-completed Task.CompletedTask: if the token is cancelled between the guard and the continuation, the returned task will be cancelled rather than true. In a test stub that is harmless; noted for completeness.
  • No new protocol paths, no key material, no external calls in this diff.

Summary: The E2E stub bug (every conditional save was refused because the default reads the caller's own mutated object) is cleanly fixed. The two remaining items are issue #3 (two-phase write — self-healing but worth closing before production) and issue #4 (changelog entry for the nullable API change). Neither is a new regression introduced by this commit.

…, and let a caller reopen them.

An unpaid Lightning receive stayed Pending forever, and so did an on-board whose L1 HTLC was never paid. Both kept their lockup and payout contracts (AwaitingFundsBeforeDeactivate counts as active) and their intent row in the watched set, so every abandoned invoice grew the VTXO poll, the arkd subscription and the advance pass for good; the on-board also asked the chain for its HTLC address on every 30-second pass.

- LightningToBtc Pending past RefundLocktime now moves to Resolved on the clock. That deadline is the solver's reclaim, so nothing is left for us to claim. Sends are untouched: past their locktime the refund is ours.
- OnchainToBtc is closed (Cancelled) by the refund path only when the HTLC shows no output at all, not even unconfirmed, a day past HtlcLocktime.
- Both mark the row closedByClockAt and deactivate the lockup and payout contracts.
- ArkadeIntentsService.ReopenAsync puts such a row back to Pending and re-watches both contracts; rows closed by a chain event are refused. The next advance pass closes it again if the chain still shows nothing.
…settle it from the chain or the invoice's expiry.

A funding spend can throw after the Arkade server accepted it. The exception propagated as an ordinary failure and the swap row stayed Funding, a status nothing watches or advances, so a caller retried (paying the invoice twice if the first lockup had landed) while the first swap could never be refunded.

- Coin-selection failures (NotEnoughFundsException, TooManyInputsException) happen before anything is sent: the swap is Cancelled, its lockup contract deactivated, and the exception rethrown.
- Any other failure no longer throws. SendToLightningAsync returns with FundedLightningSend.FundingConfirmed false and no FundingTxid, and the row stays Funding. Returning rather than throwing makes the safe reading the default: a caller that treats an exception as "not paid" would retry. A failed save after a successful spend is logged, not thrown; the swap is funded either way.
- The advance pass now settles Funding sends: a lockup in storage promotes the swap through the state machine; with none, it is cancelled once the invoice has been expired for LightningSendGates.UnfundedAfterExpirySeconds, when the payee can no longer be paid. Such a cancellation is marked and re-checked, so a lockup that lands late reopens it.
- The closedByClockAt marker is renamed closedWithoutChainEventAt now that it covers both cases, and ReopenAsync returns a send to Funding rather than Pending.

FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid is now nullable, and FundingConfirmed is appended with a default of true.

Docs: the new behaviour and ReopenAsync in README and the corridor articles; the sample wallet reports an unknown outcome as sent, without a txid, instead of offering a retry.
…ever reported failed on an unreadable spend.

The monitor and reconciliation marked any spent lockup whose preimage they could not find Resolved. That conflated two cases: a spend that is readable and carries no preimage (the money went back to whoever funded the lockup), and a spend that could not be fetched yet (an indexer lag, a batch settlement). Our own refund already records Cancelled, so on a send Resolved mostly meant an unproven solver claim, and consumers such as BTCPay reported those payments as failed and paid again.

A shared verdict (SwapSpendVerdict, over LockupFateReader) now decides:
- Claimed: Fulfilled, as before.
- Returned: Cancelled on a send (our refund); Resolved on a receive (the solver took its lockup back, and an on-board still owes its L1 refund).
- Unknown: nothing is written.

ReconcileAsync and the advance pass share ReconcileOneAsync. The advance pass now re-reads every open HTLC-corridor row and every Resolved send until a verdict lands, which also subsumes the Funding promotion added earlier; a Resolved receive is final and not re-read.

Tests: monitor and reconciliation tests updated to the new outcomes; the monitor's fake storage now keeps the VTXOs it raises, as real storage does. Docs and the sample wallet's labels follow.
…t limit.

On an exact-in receive (RfqAmountSide.From) the solver's fee comes out of the payout, so a small invoice could leave a lockup worth less than dust. The claim cannot spend that into an output, the payer's HTLC sits held until it lapses, and the sale is lost. LightningReceiveGates.AssertPayoutAboveDust now refuses such a quote with the new LightningReceiveRefusalReason.PayoutBelowDust (appended, so existing values keep their numbers), before the invoice is handed out.
Nothing checked the amounts an on-board quote came back with: on exact-out a solver could deliver whatever it liked, and on exact-in bill whatever it liked, and only a caller's own fee ceiling stood in the way. OnchainReceiveGates.AssertAmounts now refuses both, with PayerChargeMismatch and ShortPayout (appended to the refusal reasons), the same rules the Lightning receive applies through VerifyInvoice.
…s the status it was read in.

The monitor, the advance pass and reconciliation all derive a status from a view of the chain, then wrote the whole row back. Two of those can be in flight at once, so the slower write undid the faster: a swap the solver had just filled could be rewound to Refundable, its refund would then fail on a spent lockup, and BTCPay was told the payment had failed while the payee had been paid.

IArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent is a compare-and-swap on the status. The EF Core storage applies it in one read-modify-write; the interface carries a non-atomic default so other backends keep compiling. Reconciliation, the clock transitions, the unfunded-send cancellation, the abandoned on-board closure and ReopenAsync all go through it. Writes the client itself produced — a claim, a refund, a funding just spent for — stay unconditional, since nothing newer can exist.
…r already has.

ReceiveFromLightningAsync derived a fresh receive contract for every swap, so a flow that mints one address per attempt — an invoice, an order — spent two HD indices per payment instead of one. An HD wallet is restored by scanning until GapLimit consecutive indices come back unused, and an index spent on a swap nobody pays shortens the run a restore can cross; what lies beyond it a seed restore does not find.

The optional payoutContract mirrors the on-board's, so one contract can serve both a payment method and the swap behind it. Omitted, a fresh contract is derived exactly as before, and a linked (composed) receive still takes its payout from the route.
The Lightning receive gained this check when it started billing the payer the order amount; the on-board now does the same, so the same small order cannot produce a lockup the claim is unable to spend into an output. Published solver minimums and the callers' fee ceilings happen to keep this out of reach today, which is luck rather than a gate.
…asks for it.

The covenant's signerless leaves pin their own outputs — the claim to our payout, the ninth leaf to our refund address — and the emulator co-signs them, so neither needs a wallet key. The SDK exposed them only as explicit calls, and deliberately refuses to switch unasked, so a watch-only wallet's receive could never be claimed by the advance pass: it retried and failed every tick until the solver's reclaim took the lockup back, with the payer's money held meanwhile.

ArkadeIntentsOptions.SignerlessFallback keeps that decision with the deployment. Off, nothing changes and an unsigned claim still fails loudly. On, a wallet with no signer takes the signerless path for claims (both receive corridors) and for the Lightning send's refund. The preimage must still be on the row, since a wallet with no signer cannot re-derive it.
…t was committed.

The default implementation reads the status back off the caller's own object, which in an
in-memory store is the change being saved, so every conditional save was refused.
…nsaction.

Writes the two statements together so no reader sees a status over metadata that no pass
decided, covers the conditional save with tests, and flags the nullable FundingTxid in the docs.

Follow-up review — 6c5a2b7 — all prior issues resolved

One commit since my last pass. Four files changed: EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs (+7), InMemoryArkadeIntentStorage.cs (+4/-3), EfCoreArkadeIntentStorageTests.cs (+43), docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md (+3). All three tracked issues are now closed.


Prior-issue closure

Issue #3 — Two-phase write leaves status and metadata transiently inconsistent — Fixed by 6c5a2b7

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs:79

BeginTransactionAsync now wraps both the ExecuteUpdateAsync (status-only write) and the subsequent FirstAsync + Apply + SaveChangesAsync (full-row write). The two CommitAsync calls land in the right places: one on the insert path, one on the update path. On the guard path (claimed == 0 and the row exists), the method returns false and await using var tx disposes without commit, so the transaction rolls back cleanly — the ExecuteUpdateAsync on that path touched 0 rows, so there is nothing to undo.

The default isolation level (ReadCommitted on Postgres and SQL Server) is appropriate here: a concurrent reader either sees the old row or both the new status and the new metadata together, never the new status over stale metadata. ✓

Three new EfCore integration tests cover sequential correctness: AConditionalSave_WritesStatusAndTheRestOfTheRowTogether, AConditionalSave_RefusesASwapSomethingElseAlreadyMoved, and AConditionalSave_InsertsASwapThatWasNeverStored. They match the three code paths and are correct.


Issue #4 — FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid nullable is a breaking API change — Fixed by 6c5a2b7

docs/articles/lightning-corridors.md:324

The corridor guide now explicitly documents the surface change: "FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid is string? for that reason — a surface change for callers compiled against the previous non-nullable property, which now has to handle the ambiguous outcome." That meets the minimum bar I asked for. A dedicated CHANGELOG or version-bump entry would be best practice if this project maintains versioned releases, but the docs callout is the required minimum and it is there. ✓


Prior editorial note — ContinueWith(_ => true, cancellationToken) in E2E stub — Cleaned up by 6c5a2b7

NArk.Tests.End2End/Common/TestPersistance/InMemoryArkadeIntentStorage.cs:72

The TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent method is now async Task<bool> with proper await SaveArkadeSwapIntent(...) instead of chaining ContinueWith. The subtle cancellation-token edge case I noted (task cancelling instead of returning true if the token fired between the guard and the continuation) is gone. ✓


Backlog item — UpdateStatus still has the old read-then-update race (unchanged, not a new finding)

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs:145–167

I flagged this in the previous pass as an awareness item: UpdateStatus does FirstOrDefaultAsync (which filters to in-flight statuses in C#/LINQ), then mutates the entity and calls SaveChangesAsync. The EF Core-generated UPDATE carries WHERE Id = @id only — the in-flight-status guard from the LINQ FirstOrDefaultAsync is not present in the SQL. A concurrent TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent that commits between the FirstOrDefaultAsync and SaveChangesAsync would be overwritten.

This is pre-existing, UpdateStatus is on a different caller path from TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent, and no code in this PR touches it. Recording it here so it does not get lost.


Summary

All three tracked issues are resolved. The transaction wrapper is correct, the docs acknowledge the breaking API change, and the E2E stub cleanup is done. No new blocking concerns from this diff. The UpdateStatus racy pattern is a known backlog item.

Follow-up review — 64dac53 — rebase only, all prior issues remain resolved

What changed since 6c5a2b7: the branch was rebased onto master, pulling in two already-merged PRs (#211, #213). The PR's own 12 commits are byte-for-byte identical to what I reviewed at 6c5a2b7. 0 new findings; 0 prior issues re-opened.


Prior-issue closure

All five items I tracked across previous passes remain closed. No code that was fixed has been touched.

# Issue Status
1 EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent — status guard not atomic Fixed (c0516ba) — ExecuteUpdateAsync … WHERE Status = expectedStatus unchanged at HEAD
2 Default IArkadeIntentStorage impl / E2E stub — conditional save compared against already-mutated object Fixed (4dd8d88) — _committed shadow dict in InMemoryArkadeIntentStorage unchanged
3 Two-phase write left status and metadata transiently inconsistent Fixed (64dac53) — BeginTransactionAsync wrapping both writes confirmed unchanged
4 FundedLightningSend.FundingTxid nullable — silent breaking change for callers without nullable enabled Fixed (6c5a2b7) — docs callout in lightning-corridors.md confirmed unchanged
5–7 Editorial notes (SwapWatch comment, NextOnClock asymmetry, AdvanceAllAsync in-memory status invariant) No longer tracking — code unchanged

Rebase-introduced commits (#211, #213)

These landed on master before the rebase. I reviewed them only for interaction with the PR's changes; they are otherwise out of scope.

#211 — TryDeleteFromServerAsync in BatchManagementService and IntentGenerationService
NArk.Core/Services/BatchManagementService.cs, NArk.Core/Services/IntentGenerationService.cs

Adds a best-effort server deregistration call before local cancellation of ArkIntent records. The logic is sound: the method is fire-and-forget with a LogWarning on failure (no throw, no silent swallow of anything money-critical). The fix addresses a real correctness concern — a stranded server registration on a cancelled local intent causes arkd to collect two forfeits for the same VTXO and fail the whole round. No shared state with the ArkadeIntents layer (ArkIntent vs ArkadeSwapIntent are distinct types, distinct storage, distinct service trees).

#213 — CI workflow branch/tag filter
.github/workflows/build.yml

Adds branches: ["master"] and tags: ["**"] to the push trigger. No code impact.


Residual backlog item (pre-existing, not introduced by this PR)

NArk.Storage.EfCore.ArkadeIntents/Storage/EfCoreArkadeIntentStorage.cs — UpdateStatus (unchanged)

UpdateStatus does FirstOrDefaultAsync + entity mutation + SaveChangesAsync. EF Core's generated UPDATE carries WHERE Id = @id only; the in-flight-status filter from the LINQ expression is not in the SQL. A concurrent TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent that commits between the FirstOrDefaultAsync and SaveChangesAsync would be overwritten. This is the same race TrySaveArkadeSwapIntent was hardened against; UpdateStatus is on a different caller path (the VTXO event monitor), so it is a separate window. No change to my prior assessment: track on the backlog, address in a follow-on.


Conclusion: The PR is ready as far as the issues I raised are concerned. The rebase is clean and introduces no new interactions.
