Pink Team · evidence qualificationcontract v1.1.0

Qualify the evidence.

Before a proposal gets a vector classification, the Pink Team records what is present, what is missing, and how current it is. Gaps remain visible instead of being converted into reassuring results.

Inputs

Evidence packet

Wallet history, funding path, stake accumulation and recovery, trade execution, market data, and a source-dated treasury snapshot. For a launch-covenant record, the packet is the disclosed terms at issuance.

Outputs

Coverage state

Availability, confidence, source freshness, field-level forensic coverage, and an explicit withheld classification when evidence is incomplete.

Handoff

Qualified record

Complete forensic evidence can move to vector matching. Partial and unavailable packets keep their uncertainty attached for every downstream team.

Red Team · attack testingcontract v1.0.0

Try to break it.

The Red Team runs versioned economic attack playbooks against qualified evidence. Every result belongs to one mechanism: indicators are never added across vectors into a composite score, and no match is not a claim of safety. Documented vectors join the library before their detectors ship — each one names the evidence its detector still needs, and none of them ever produces a classification.

Inputs

Qualified packet

A Pink-qualified evidence packet: wallet history, funding path, accumulation, stake recovery, and execution series for the proposal under review.

Outputs

Vector finding

A count of matched indicators and a classification scoped to one monitored vector, or an explicit withheld state when the packet is incomplete.

Handoff

Scoped result

The finding travels with its vector id, version, and scope note; the White Team checks the claim boundary before anything is published.

Late-window TWAP outcome steering

A trader waits out most of the TWAP window, then pushes a marginal print across its threshold in the closing stretch — when the required move is fully known and defenders have the least accrual time left to trade the price back. Late trades carry the least time-weight, so the target is a market already near its threshold, not the TWAP itself. Late activity also has benign forms — organic close-out and activist pressure — so a detector must separate steering from ordinary end-of-window trading.

This classification is scoped to one monitored attack vector, not a validated composite proposal-risk score or a complete claim of safety.

Monitored indicators

01 · Timing

Aligned volume concentrated in the closing hours of the TWAP window

02 · Fragility

Printed outcome crosses the threshold on one marginal trade

03 · Liquidity

Price move outsized against posted depth near the threshold

04 · Reversal

Price snaps back once TWAP weight stops accruing

05 · Threshold pressure

Intra-window spike alone would clear the configured threshold

Evidence the detector consumes

01 · Required evidence

Indexed per-trade history with in-window timestamps

02 · Required evidence

TWAP window boundaries and per-trade accrued weight

03 · Required evidence

Depth series around the configured threshold

04 · Required evidence

Decision-market manipulation · v1.0.0 · Monitored — detector shipped

Wash-volume alignment inflation

Automated near-neutral flow inflates a market's apparent volume and economic alignment, dressing thin conviction up as broad support while contributing no real position either way. The same fingerprint matches benign arbitrage flow, which published analysis strips as routine; a detector must separate deliberate wash from ordinary arb before it can say anything.

This classification is scoped to one monitored attack vector, not a validated composite proposal-risk score or a complete claim of safety.

Paired pass-market and fail-market executions from one wallet

02 · Cadence

04 · Frequency

Per-wallet trade frequency in the arbitrage band

05 · Alignment distortion

Evidence the detector consumes

01 · Required evidence

02 · Required evidence

Ending pass/fail exposure per wallet

03 · Required evidence

Per-wallet trade frequency over the market's lifetime

04 · Required evidence

Volume tilt recomputed with the suspect flow removed

Economic governance attack · v1.0.0 · Monitored — detector shipped

Coordinated multi-wallet stake assembly

An operator splits stake acquisition or market activity across coordinated wallets so no single address crosses the eligibility thresholds the protocol enforces or the attribution thresholds a reviewer watches. Coordination alone is not an attack — multi-wallet holders and coordinated defenders share parts of this shape — so the mechanism is the threshold evasion, not the wallet count.

This classification is scoped to one monitored attack vector, not a validated composite proposal-risk score or a complete claim of safety.

Monitored indicators

01 · Funding context

Participating wallets funded from one upstream source

02 · Identity context

Wallets first active inside a tight shared window

03 · Eligibility acquisition

Decision-market manipulation · v1.0.0 · Documented — detector pending

Terminal-window TWAP capture

A governance rule resolves on a TWAP measured over only a short terminal slice of a much longer decision period, on pools that need only clear a published minimum-liquidity floor. The entire resolving window is the closing stretch: the capital needed to own the print is calculable in advance from the floor and the window length, and defenders have no earlier accrual to lean on. Distinct from late-window outcome steering, which targets the tail of a full-length TWAP window — here the rule itself confines every unit of resolving weight to the terminal window. Genuine late information arrival produces the same late repricing, so a detector must separate engineered capture from honest end-of-period discovery.

This vector is documented, not monitored: its detector has not shipped, so it never produces a classification. The definition records the mechanism and the evidence a detector would need first.

Defined indicators

01 · Window structure

All resolving TWAP weight accrues in a terminal window that is a small fraction of the decision period

02 · Liquidity

Full-range depth sits at or barely above the published liquidity floor

03 · Timing

Markets stay quiet until the resolving window opens, then absorb concentrated aligned flow

04 · Fragility

Pass/fail ordering flips inside the resolving window after holding steady before it

05 · Reversal

Prices revert once the terminal window closes and weight stops accruing

Evidence a detector needs first

01 · Required evidence

The ratified rule: resolving-window length, liquidity floor, and pass condition as published

02 · Required evidence

Pool depth series across the decision period, with full-range liquidity measured against the floor

03 · Required evidence

Per-trade history with timestamps covering pre-window and in-window activity

04 · Required evidence

Post-resolution price series for reversion checks

Governance-signal manipulation · v1.0.0 · Documented — detector pending

Advisory-signal inflation

Where a decision market is advisory — its price signal informs a vote or a bound delegate but executes nothing — moving the signal is cheap: no treasury settlement forces the manipulator to hold losing risk, and thin honest flow is the norm. An inflated print then travels as social proof through forums, delegates, and dashboards that cite the market as an endorsement. Honest participants also trade advisory markets at low volume, so a detector must separate manufactured endorsement from a thin but genuine signal.

This vector is documented, not monitored: its detector has not shipped, so it never produces a classification. The definition records the mechanism and the evidence a detector would need first.

Defined indicators

01 · Exposure

Directional prints arrive without exposure held through the signal read

02 · Capital sizing

Signal-moving flow is trivial against the decision's stated stakes

03 · Timing

Aligned flow concentrates just before the signal is read or a bound delegate executes

04 · Cross-check

Market signal diverges from the venue's own vote and forum alignment

05 · Reversal

Positions unwind once the advisory signal has been consumed

Evidence a detector needs first

01 · Required evidence

The advisory rule as published: what reads the signal, when, and at what threshold

02 · Required evidence

Wallet-attributed trade history across both conditional markets

03 · Required evidence

Timestamps of signal reads or bound-delegate executions against the flow series

04 · Required evidence

Position series after the signal is consumed, for unwind checks

Blue Team · market watchcontract v1.2.0

Watch the market.

The Blue Team reads confirmed proposal state, pass-market and fail-market TWAPs, and the DAO’s configured threshold. Its market finding stays separate from the Red Team’s forensic result.

Inputs

Confirmed accounts

Futarchy proposal and DAO accounts provide current state, proposal class, the configured threshold, and pass/fail TWAP accumulators.

Outputs

Threshold read

The pass-market TWAP must strictly beat the configured threshold over the fail-market TWAP. A late-window pressure watch describes the retained observation series — margin against threshold, contested crossings, and closing-stretch moves. A flip-cost scenario states the floor on moving a conditional print at disclosed depth. Live math remains provisional until finalization.

Handoff

Defense watch

Market state travels beside forensic context without standing in for missing wallet history, volume, or execution evidence.

Yellow Team · playbook buildingcontract v1.1.0

Codify the research.

The Yellow Team turns published investigations into reusable definitions. The mechanism gets a stable name, version, scope note, indicators, and case provenance; the incident never becomes the detector.

Inputs

Published intelligence

Cited proposal records, market math, wallet forensics, and explicit observations from the cited source research.

Outputs

Runnable definition

A versioned mechanism with ordered indicators and a scope boundary that can be assessed independently, and covenant checks versioned against published launch terms.

Handoff

Standing check

The Red Team receives a reusable playbook; published cases remain provenance beneath it rather than hard-coded classifications.
