The source code for the Hooker.vy contract can be found on GitHub.

The Hooker contract is a versatile and essential component within the Curve Finance ecosystem, designed to support and manage hooks that interact with the FeeCollector contract. This contract enables the execution of predefined actions (hooks) that can be triggered under specific conditions, such as during the fee collection process. It handles the calculation and distribution of compensations, ensuring that hooks are executed correctly and at the appropriate times.

The contract has the following key features:

  • Hook Management: Hooks can be added to the contract via the set_hooks function. These hooks define actions to be executed, including target addresses, method data, and compensation strategies.
  • Compensation Calculation: The contract includes a comprehensive system for calculating compensation for executing hooks, based on predefined strategies. This ensures that those who execute hooks are fairly rewarded.
  • Execution Control: The duty_act function ensures that mandatory hooks (duty hooks) are executed as part of the fee collection process, while the act function allows for general hook execution by anyone.
  • Cooldown Management: Compensation strategies include cooldown periods to prevent abuse and ensure fair distribution of rewards. The duty_counter helps manage these cooldown periods by tracking the epochs in which compensations are made.
  • Security and Access Control: Certain functions, like set_hooks and one_time_hooks, are restricted to the contract owner to maintain security and control over the contract's behavior.

Hooks need to be added to the contract via the set_hooks function. Once added, these hooks can be executed by anyone using the act function. Mandatory hooks, marked with the duty flag, are executed during the fee collection process using the duty_act function.


Compensation Strategy

Each hook includes a compensation_strategy that defines how and when the executor of the hook will be compensated. This ensures that there is an incentive to call hooks according to predefined rules.

The CompensationStrategy consists of the following values:

struct CompensationStrategy:
    amount: uint256  # In case of Dutch auction max amount
    cooldown: CompensationCooldown
    start: uint256
    end: uint256
    dutch: bool

struct CompensationCooldown:
    duty_counter: uint64  # last compensation epoch
    used: uint64
    limit: uint64  # Maximum number of compensations between duty acts (week)
  • amount: The maximum amount of compensation available for executing the hook.
  • CompensationCooldown: Contains details about the cooldown period between compensations, consisting of:
    • duty_counter: Keeps track of the last epoch in which a compensation was made.
    • used: Indicates the number of compensations made within the current cooldown period.
    • limit: Represents the maximum number of compensations allowed within the cooldown period.
  • start: Defines the starting time of the compensation period within a week.
  • end: Defines the ending time of the compensation period within a week.
  • dutch: A boolean indicating if the compensation uses a Dutch auction mechanism. If true, the compensation amount decreases linearly over time from the start to the end. This encourages earlier execution of the hook to receive a higher reward.

Hooks

Before hooks can be executed, they need to be added via set_hooks. These hooks can then be externally executed by anyone.

hooks

Hooker.hooks(arg0: uint256) -> Hook: view

Getter for the hooks recorded in the contract.

Returns: Hook struct consisting of the target address (address), a byte array containing the method identifier and additional data (Bytes[1024]), compensation strategy (CompensationStrategy) and if the hook is a duty hook or not (bool).

set_hooks

Hooker.set_hooks(_new_hooks: DynArray[Hook, MAX_HOOKS_LEN])

Guarded Method

This function is only callable by the admin of the contract.

Function to set new hooks.

Input Type Description
_new_hooks DynArray[Hook, MAX_HOOKS_LEN] Array of Hook structs

Each Hook struct contains:

  • to: The target address for the hook action.
  • foreplay: A byte array containing the method identifier and additional data.

Executing Hooks

There are two functions to execute hooks: duty_act and act.

The duty_act method is designed to be called by the FeeCollector contract during the FORWARD epoch. This function is called when coins are forwarded from the FeeCollector using the forward function.

The act function is a more general function to execute hooks and compensate the caller, callable by anyone.

Compensation for executing hooks

The compensation strategy in the Hooker contract determines how and when callers (keepers) are compensated for executing hooks. This strategy includes parameters for managing compensation amounts, cooldowns, and execution limits, ensuring fair and controlled distribution of rewards.

The compensation strategy is defined within the CompensationStrategy struct, which includes several fields:

struct CompensationStrategy:
    amount: uint256  # In case of Dutch auction max amount
    cooldown: CompensationCooldown
    start: uint256
    end: uint256
    dutch: bool
  • amount: The maximum compensation amount. For Dutch auction strategies, this represents the starting maximum amount.
  • cooldown: A nested struct (CompensationCooldown) that manages the cooldown period and usage limits for compensations.
  • start: The start time (within a week) for the compensation period.
  • end: The end time (within a week) for the compensation period.
  • dutch: A boolean indicating whether the compensation follows a Dutch auction strategy, where the compensation decreases over time.

The CompensationCooldown struct includes fields to manage the number of compensations within a duty cycle and track the duty counter:

struct CompensationCooldown:
    duty_counter: uint64  # last compensation epoch
    used: uint64
    limit: uint64  # Maximum number of compensations between duty acts (week)
  • duty_counter: Tracks the last duty cycle in which compensation was provided.
  • used: The number of compensations already provided in the current cycle.
  • limit: The maximum number of compensations allowed within a single duty cycle

To see the actual value of compensation, see calc_compensation.

duty_act

Hooker.duty_act(_hook_inputs: DynArray[HookInput, MAX_HOOKS_LEN], _receiver: address=msg.sender) -> uint256
