Desk code keeps pool credit inside the desk, the pool and Perpl, against a malicious trader, relayer or keeper. It assumes Perpl and AUSD behave as their published ABIs say. Admin actions by Perpl or Agora, a compromised trader device, and unaudited code risk are outside the guarantee. This code has not been audited.
AUSD leaves a desk only to: the Perpl account (margin), the pool (principal, fees, profit
share), the protocol treasury (profit share), the trader (realized profit above the HWM net
of fees, or the final residual), and a keeper (bounded bounty, once, on enforced settlement).
There is no admin function on Desk and no arbitrary transfer anywhere.
The pool moves AUSD to: registered desks for themselves (fundDesk, pausable), and LPs
(idle assets only). The operator cannot move desk or pool funds.
| Party | Can | Cannot |
|---|---|---|
| Trader | trade inside policy, claim realized profit, close a flat desk | withdraw credit, exceed limits, trade other markets, claim unrealized PnL |
| Relayer | submit signed intents, pay gas | alter, replay or invent orders (desk re-verifies signature, nonce, deadline) |
| Keeper | call enforce/graduate/checkpoint | enforce a healthy below-fee-cap desk; take the bounty twice |
| Operator | pause new desks and graduations; lower caps now, raise caps after a 24 h timelock; add new immutable cohorts; set treasury | move funds; change a live desk's floor, limits or splits |
| Perpl admins | freeze, force-close, deleverage, upgrade, toggle whitelist | (outside Imprest's control) |
| Agora | freeze or pause AUSD | (outside Imprest's control) |

- Keys come only from environment variables;
.envis gitignored; logs never include keys or signatures (relayer testnever logs signatures). - The relayer and keeper simulate before sending and cap gas (Monad charges the limit).
- The indexer and UI never authorize money movement; money screens confirm on a second RPC.
