Common Pitfalls in Solver Operation Generation

Solver Operation Configuration Issues

1. Incorrect Solver Calldata Encoding

  • ❌ Encoding the Atlas solver call interface instead of the internal solver contract call

  • ✅ Should use: solverContract.interface.encodeFunctionData('solve')

  • Common error: Using Atlas ABI to encode the call instead of the solver contract's ABI

2. Outdated Contract Addresses

  • Dapp Control address not matching the deployed network version

  • Dapp signer address not matching the current environment

  • Atlas contract address mismatch between environments

Addresses & Endpoints

3. Gas Configuration

  • Not accounting for gas overhead in the operation

  • Using incorrect gas price calculations for legacy vs EIP-1559 transactions

  • Not properly handling maxFeePerGas and maxPriorityFeePerGas for EIP-1559 transactions

  • Using wrong signer for operation signing

  • Not handling signature recovery parameters correctly

  • Missing or incorrect chainId in signing process

5. Deadline Configuration

  • Setting too short or too long deadlines (deadline in block number)

  • Using timestamps instead of block number for deadlines

6. Bid Token Configuration

  • Using incorrect token decimals in bid amounts

  • Incorrect zero address usage for native token bids

7. Operation Hash Calculation

  • Incorrect user operation hash calculation for backrun transactions

  • Not properly handling legacy vs EIP-1559 transaction parameters in hash calculation

  • not using the opportunity transaction matching gas settings

8. Permission and Access Issues

  • Solver contract not properly authorized on Atlas

9. Value Transfer Issues

  • Incorrect handling of value field for native token transfers

  • Not accounting for bid amount in value field when required

  • Not sending the bidAmount to the executionEnvironment

10. Environment Specific Issues

  • Using production addresses in testing environment

  • Not properly handling different network configurations

  • Missing environment-specific parameter adjustments
