Manual, opcode-level analysis. Deterministic PoCs. Invariant-driven validation.
I work on protocol-level security: how value enters, moves through, and leaves a system, and which state transitions can break the assumptions a protocol depends on. The approach is evidence-first — invariants and hard assertions instead of surface-level checks, deterministic proofs of concept instead of screenshots, and reproducible execution traces instead of narrative.
Most of my work sits at the boundary between reading a protocol and proving something about it: re-engineering historical DeFi exploits as assertion-hardened PoCs, reviewing live protocols at the state-transition and account-model level across EVM, Solana/Anchor, and Move, and turning findings into reports a reviewer can actually reproduce and follow.
- Protocol mapping and value-flow analysis
- Invariant reasoning and assertion-hardened PoCs
- Local Foundry proof and execution-trace support
- Evidence-backed, reviewer-readable vulnerability reports
Yudis-bit/DeFi-Exploit-PoCs is a Foundry-style local security workbench for DeFi protocol research. It turns a codebase you own or are authorized to review into a repeatable local workflow: a protocol map, a money-flow graph, a ranked review plan, a local Foundry proof path, and trace summaries, evidence packages, and responsible report drafts.
Foundry proves behavior. Arkheionx helps researchers understand, prioritize, package, and explain the evidence — locally, with no RPC and no secrets.
Core capabilities
- Protocol mapping — roles, journeys, and where value is controlled
- Value-flow review — money-flow graph as JSON and Mermaid
- Review-target ranking — high-signal surfaces instead of guessing
- Proof / trace workflow — targeted local Foundry proofs and compact trace summaries
- Evidence package — structured proof and trace artifacts with explicit evidence levels
- Responsible report draft — local drafts labelled for human review
- Artifact validation — required-field and safe-transition checks on generated artifacts
- Local-first install / update lifecycle —
install.sh,arkup,uninstall.sh - Guided demo fixtures —
oracle-staking,amm-swap,lending-vault(toy fixtures, not real protocols) - Professional CLI output — restrained, TTY-gated color; JSON and files stay plain
Evidence levels stay explicit: HEURISTIC → COMPILER_CONFIRMED → EXECUTION_CONFIRMED → EVIDENCE_READY, with human review as the final, required step.
Safety boundaries — No RPC by default · no private keys or secrets · no live-chain mutation · no automated exploitation · human review required. Arkheionx is not an audit and does not promise vulnerability discovery, severity, or bounty eligibility.
- EVM (Ethereum & L2s) — Solidity and Yul, state-transition reasoning, proxy and upgrade-path review, oracle and DeFi accounting, invariant fuzzing.
- SVM (Solana) — account-model validation, PDA authority and seed derivation, CPI ordering, Anchor-based audit workflow.
- MoveVM (Sui & Aptos) — resource safety, capabilities and abilities, module publishing, arithmetic precision and invariants.
External findings on live, in-scope programs, validated by the protocol teams. Listed without payout or severity details.
- Variational — Oracle Registry Bypass. State-transition flaw in oracle registration logic that allowed registry assumptions to be bypassed under specific call paths.
- Hyperbridge — GET Timeout Prefix Mismatch. Inconsistency between the encoded request prefix and the timeout-handler prefix on GET requests, breaking the symmetry the timeout path relied on.
- Evidence over claims — proofs and traces, not assertions.
- Reviewer-readable reports — a reviewer can reproduce the steps and follow the path.
- Invariant framing — state what must always hold, then test against it.
- Reproducibility — deterministic, local artifacts that survive regression.
- Proof / trace support — Foundry execution backs the writeup where it can.
- Responsible boundaries — authorized scope only; human review is the final word.

| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| Arkheionx | Local DeFi security workbench — protocol mapping, value-flow analysis, proof/trace evidence, and report drafting. Stable at v3.0.0. |
| Arkheionx Guard | Deterministic EVM execution firewall for Safe treasuries: an immutable guard core with timelocked policy and adapter registries bound by codehash pinning. Its Foundry invariant suite survived 512,000+ adversarial calls with zero ghost violations. |
| Cognitive Routing Protocol | Prototype routing protocol for DePIN networks: a reinforcement-learning simulator (Python) with on-chain trust and incentive primitives (Solidity). Comparative simulation showed ~22% lower average latency on successful deliveries. |
- Post-v3 Arkheionx work (
v3.1.0) — incremental workbench improvements after the stable cut. - Local-first evidence workflows that keep findings honest about their evidence level.
- Deeper protocol understanding: clearer maps, better value-flow signal.
- Reusable review patterns that travel across protocols and execution environments.
- Research that stays reproducible and useful to the reviewer reading it.
