+## Shadow Coordinator + Prover Testing (Production Task Replay)
+
+For testing proof generation against **real mainnet production tasks** without interfering with the live system, use the **Shadow Coordinator** approach. This is significantly faster than a full shadow fork:
+
+- **Architecture**: Local coordinator (`:8390`) + local prover (GPU), fed by imported production task data.
+- **Docs**: [`tests/shadow-testing/docs/GUIDE.md`](tests/shadow-testing/docs/GUIDE.md) — full setup guide, troubleshooting, config reference.
+- **Quick Start**: [`tests/shadow-testing/README.md`](tests/shadow-testing/README.md)
+- **Automation**: [`tests/shadow-testing/Makefile`](tests/shadow-testing/Makefile) — Makefile targets for Docker and bare-metal shadow fork testing.
+
+Key hard-won rules:
+- **L2 RPC for coordinator task generation** (must support `debug_executionWitness`):
+  - ✅ **Primary**: `https://l2geth-rpc-proxy.mainnet.aws.scroll.io/` (internal/debug-enabled, supports `debug_executionWitness`)
+  - ⚠️ **Fallback**: `https://mainnet-rpc.scroll.io` (public RPC, may not support `debug_executionWitness` for chunk task generation)
+  - ❌ **Avoid**: `https://rpc.scroll.io` (does not work)
+- **Alchemy API for Anvil fork** (must use Alchemy, others hit rate limits):
+  - ✅ **Primary**: `https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_ALCHEMY_API_KEY`
+  - 📋 **Credential source**: Check `local-secrets.md`, `.env`, or `.pgpass` first. If not found, **ask a human** — do not guess or invent keys.
+- **S3 circuit URLs**: v0.8.0 uses `v0.8.0/` prefix (no `/releases/`).
+- **l2_block table**: Coordinator needs this for block hash lookups. Must be populated and linked via `chunk_hash`.
+- **Blocks**: Must be post-fork (GalileoV2 / codec V10 = blocks ≥ 33,750,000 on mainnet).
+- **L1 messages**: If chunks contain L1 messages, prover needs `scroll_getL1MessagesInBlock` RPC support. Most chunks at current mainnet height do NOT contain L1 messages, so this is usually non-blocking.
+- **Anvil MUST fork Ethereum L1, NOT Scroll L2**: The ScrollChain proxy address `0xa13BAF47339d63B743e7Da8741db5456DAc1E556` is on **Ethereum mainnet** (chainId=1), not Scroll mainnet (chainId=534352). If you accidentally point Anvil at a Scroll L2 RPC (e.g., `scroll-mainnet.g.alchemy.com`), the proxy address will have no code or wrong code, and all contract interactions will fail. Always verify `eth_chainId` returns `1` after forking.
+
+### Sepolia Shadow Fork — Additional Rules
+
+| Dimension | Mainnet | Sepolia | Trap |
+|-----------|---------|---------|------|
+| **DB port** | `localhost:5433` (shadow) / `15432` (RDS tunnel) | `localhost:25432` (RDS tunnel) | Wrong port = connecting to mainnet data |
+| **L2 RPC** | `l2geth-rpc-proxy.mainnet.aws.scroll.io` | `l2geth-rpc-proxy.sepolia.aws.scroll.io` | Public Sepolia RPC (`sepolia-rpc.scroll.io`) rejects `debug_executionWitness` |
+| **Verifier** | Mainnet has `latestVerifier[10] = 0x0dE1...` (can `anvil_setCode`) | Production proofs + production MVRV may already match | Re-using old proofs → check MVRV first. Testing **new guest** → MUST deploy fresh verifier |
+| **`committedBatches`** | Sparse, but fork block usually covers target batches | Sparse; **every bundle end batch must exist** | Missing entry → `ErrorIncorrectBatchHash(0x2a1c1442)` |
+| **`L1MessageQueueV2`** | Reset `nextUnfinalizedQueueIndex = 0` sufficient | Set to `MIN(total_l1_messages_popped_before)` of first target batch; **slot 104** (verify with `forge inspect`) | Wrong slot/value → `ErrorFinalizedIndexTooLarge(0x16465978)` |
+| **Anvil gas estimation** | Same as mainnet | `eth_estimateGas` fails with fee caps present (`Gas=0`) | Patch `estimategas.go` or use `--min-codec-version` workaround |
+| **Sender balance** | Persisted across restarts | **Resets to 0** after Anvil restart | Must re-fund EOAs before each relayer start |
+| **Relayer flags** | Standard | Requires `--config <path>` AND `--min-codec-version 10` | Missing flags = wrong config or immediate exit |
+| **DB scope** | Imported limited range | Full production snapshot (batches 128080+) | Relayer batch committer floods logs with commit retries |
+| **Blob version** | Usually V0 | Anvil 1.0.0 cannot decode BlobSidecar V1 | Set `fusaka_timestamp: 2000000000` in relayer config |
+| **Proofs in DB** | May already be v0.8.0 | Old proofs are v0.7.3 | Must reset `proving_status = 1` to regenerate with v0.8.0 |

+## Troubleshooting: Verifier Wrapper Deployment on Shadow Forks
+
+### `anvil_setCode` Does NOT Reset Immutables
+- **Problem**: Copying a mainnet verifier wrapper (e.g., `ZkEvmVerifierPostFeynman`) to Anvil via `anvil_setCode` preserves the **original immutables** (`verifierDigest1`, `verifierDigest2`, `protocolVersion`). These digests are bound to the mainnet plonk verifier VK and will **never** match locally-generated proofs.
+- **Symptom**: `VerificationFailed` (selector `0x439cc0cd`) even when the plonk verifier binary, public input hash, and proof are all individually correct.
+- **Root cause**: The wrapper assembles its own `instances` array from immutables + `keccak256(protocolVersion || publicInput)`. Wrong immutables = wrong instances = plonk verifier rejects the proof.
+- **Solution**: **Always recompile and redeploy** the wrapper with immutables extracted from the *local* proof's `instances` array (bytes 384–416 and 416–448 for digest1/digest2).
+
+### Do Not "Fix" Production Solidity Without Evidence
+- **Problem**: When `VerificationFailed` appears, it's tempting to blame the assembly loop in the wrapper (`sub(0x5a0, i)` vs `add(0x1c0, i)`).
+- **Reality**: The production wrapper (`ZkEvmVerifierPostFeynman.sol`) has used `sub(0x5a0, i)` since deployment and has finalized thousands of bundles on mainnet. The loop direction maps hash bytes in **reverse order** to instance words, which matches the verifier circuit's expectation.
+- **Symptom of wrong patch**: Changing the loop to `add(0x1c0, i)` inverts the hash-word layout, producing a different set of instances that also fail verification.
+- **Correct diagnosis flow**:
+  1. Verify the plonk verifier binary matches the deployed contract runtime code.
+  2. Verify `keccak256(abi.encodePacked(protocolVersion, publicInput))` matches the proof metadata `bundle_pi_hash`.
+  3. Verify the wrapper's immutables match the local proof's digest words.
+  4. Only after (1–3) pass should you look at Solidity logic — and even then, production code is almost certainly correct.
+
+### Access Control on `finalizeBundlePostEuclidV2`
+- `ScrollChain.finalizeBundlePostEuclidV2` has `OnlyProver` modifier.
+- On shadow fork, impersonate the registered prover EOA before sending the transaction: `cast rpc anvil_impersonateAccount <prover_address>`.

 - Running `make coordinator_setup` rebuilds the binary but does not stop running instances. If the old instance holds port 8390, the new one fails with `bind: address already in use`.

+## Agent Discipline: Research Before Experimentation
+
+> **Rule**: When encountering a problem that is **non-trivial**, **time-consuming**, or **has failed more than once**, the agent **must** search existing documentation before attempting new fixes.
+>
+> 1. Read all relevant markdown files in the task directory (e.g., `tests/shadow-testing/docs/*.md`, `LESSONS_LEARNED.md`).
+> 2. Search for similar error messages, selectors, or symptoms in the codebase and docs.
+> 3. Only after confirming the issue is **not documented** should you design a new experiment.
+>
+> **Why**: This repository has extensive documentation of past pitfalls. Blind experimentation wastes time and repeats mistakes that are already solved in writing.
+
 ## Coordination with Humans
 
 - **Code / logic issues**: agents should reason independently and propose fixes.
 - **Environment / secrets issues** (database passwords, RPC endpoints, cloud credentials, sudo access): ask the human and wait for a response. Do not time out and make unilateral decisions.
 
+## Secrets & Credentials Reference
+
+**All sensitive endpoints, keys, and passwords for local development are documented in [`local-secrets.md`](local-secrets.md)** (git-ignored).
+
+| Category | What's Inside | Why It Matters |
+|----------|---------------|----------------|
+| **RPC Endpoints** | ETH L1 (Alchemy mainnet/sepolia), Scroll L2 (public/internal) | Anvil must fork **ETH L1**, not Scroll L2. Coordinator needs debug-enabled L2 RPC. |
+| **Database DSNs** | Local shadow DB (port 5433), Sepolia shadow DB (port 5442), Mainnet RDS (port 15432 via tunnel) | Wrong DSN = wrong chain data = wasted proving hours. |
+| **Contract Addresses** | ScrollChain proxy, L1MessageQueueV2, RollupVerifier, MockVerifier | These change per network (mainnet vs sepolia). Hard-coding without checking = `ErrorIncorrectBatchHash`. |
+| **Sender Keys** | Commit/finalize EOA private keys for shadow fork | Anvil-funded accounts; never use production keys in shadow tests. |
+| **S3 URLs** | Circuit asset base URLs | v0.8.0 drops the `/releases/` prefix. Wrong URL = 403. |
+
+> **Agent Rule**: Before starting any shadow fork or E2E test, always cross-reference `local-secrets.md`. If a required secret is missing, ask the human — do not invent URLs or credentials.
