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.

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