COBIA / DOCS

Verification

What Cobia proves before a user wallet may execute a candidate.

The verifier validates more than the requested final balance. It also checks:

  • chain and pinned block identity;
  • target, proxy implementation, and runtime-code identities;
  • selector, calldata, value, owner, recipient, and deadline;
  • exact input ceilings and undeclared asset losses;
  • approvals, operator permissions, and residual authority;
  • expected events, state deltas, trace hash, and simulation freshness;
  • policy outcome bounds and forbidden targets or assets.

For a same-chain atomic route, the final state can be enforced in one execution. Bridges are staged: the source transaction and later destination delivery have separate evidence. Future APY, LP fees, impermanent loss, and merchant fulfillment cannot be guaranteed by an onchain transaction verifier.

Bridge reconciliation support does not mean a bridge is publicly enabled. The current production manifest omits LI.FI, and V4's reviewed launch lane is same-chain X Layer execution through OKX.

Flash-loan routes are admissible only when fork replay proves atomic repayment and the final policy outcome.
