operator bench
Lab notes
Short answers from the operator bench. no ceremony; just what the machine does and where the risk remains.
Who clears a round?
Anyone can call settlement when the round is eligible. the caller does not choose winners; the contract applies the round math.
Can a buyer skip the queue?
During the launch window, canonical pool buys are rejected by the hook. the accepted buy path is queue, settle, claim.
Where does used input go?
Used launch input remains hook-owned forever. the kit exposes no team withdrawal path for it.
What can still go wrong?
Buyers can mistime demand, rounds can fill unevenly, and integrations must route through the queue path correctly. the machine removes private first fill; it does not remove market risk.
What happens after launch close?
The launch queue stops being the buy path and normal pool behavior can resume through the configured pool.
