# CCIP Relay Service

Custom relay mechanism for delivering CCIP messages from Chain 138 to Ethereum Mainnet.

## Architecture

The relay system consists of:

1. **CCIPRelayRouter** (on Ethereum Mainnet): Receives relayed messages and forwards them to bridge contracts
2. **CCIPRelayBridge** (on Ethereum Mainnet): Receives messages from relay router and transfers tokens to recipients
3. **Relay Service** (off-chain): Monitors MessageSent events on Chain 138 and relays messages to Ethereum Mainnet

## Current Deployment

### Deployed Contracts (Ethereum Mainnet)

- **Relay Router**: `0xAd9A228CcEB4cbB612cD165FFB72fE090ff10Afb`
- **Relay Bridge**: `0xF9A32F37099c582D28b4dE7Fca6eaC1e5259f939`
- **WETH9**: `0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2`

### Source Chain (Chain 138)

- **CCIP Router**: `0xd49B579DfC5912fA7CAa76893302c6e58f231431`
- **WETH9 Bridge**: `0xBBb4a9202716eAAB3644120001cC46096913a3C8`
- **WETH9**: `0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2`

## Deployment

### 1. Deploy Relay Contracts on Ethereum Mainnet

```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox/smom-dbis-138

# Set environment variables
export PRIVATE_KEY=0x...
export RPC_URL_MAINNET=https://eth.llamarpc.com
export WETH9_MAINNET=0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2
export RELAYER_ADDRESS=0x...  # Address that will run relay service

# Deploy
forge script script/DeployCCIPRelay.s.sol:DeployCCIPRelay \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL_MAINNET \
  --broadcast \
  --legacy \
  --via-ir
```

### 2. Configure Environment

The service uses environment variables. Create `.env` file in `services/relay/`:

```bash
# Source Chain (Chain 138)
RPC_URL_138=http://192.168.11.250:8545
CCIP_ROUTER_CHAIN138=0xd49B579DfC5912fA7CAa76893302c6e58f231431
CCIPWETH9_BRIDGE_CHAIN138=0xBBb4a9202716eAAB3644120001cC46096913a3C8

# Destination Chain (Ethereum Mainnet)
RPC_URL_MAINNET=https://eth.llamarpc.com
CCIP_RELAY_ROUTER_MAINNET=0xAd9A228CcEB4cbB612cD165FFB72fE090ff10Afb
CCIP_RELAY_BRIDGE_MAINNET=0xF9A32F37099c582D28b4dE7Fca6eaC1e5259f939

# Relayer Configuration
PRIVATE_KEY=0x...  # Private key for relayer (needs ETH on mainnet for gas)
RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY=${PRIVATE_KEY}  # Alternative name

# Monitoring Configuration
START_BLOCK=latest  # or specific block number (e.g., 242500)
POLL_INTERVAL=5000  # milliseconds
CONFIRMATION_BLOCKS=1

# Retry Configuration
MAX_RETRIES=3
RETRY_DELAY=5000  # milliseconds

# Chain Selectors
SOURCE_CHAIN_ID=138
DESTINATION_CHAIN_SELECTOR=5009297550715157269
```

**Important**: If `PRIVATE_KEY` contains variable expansion (e.g., `${PRIVATE_KEY}`), create a `.env.local` file with the expanded value to avoid issues with `dotenv`.

### 3. Install Dependencies

```bash
cd services/relay
npm install
```

### 4. Start Relay Service

```bash
# Start service
npm start

# Or use the wrapper script (recommended)
./start-relay.sh
```

## How It Works

1. **Event Monitoring**: The relay service monitors `MessageSent` events from the CCIP Router on Chain 138
2. **Message Queue**: Detected messages are added to a queue for processing
3. **Token Address Mapping**: Source chain token addresses are mapped to destination chain addresses
4. **Message Relay**: For each message:
   - Constructs the `Any2EVMMessage` format with mapped token addresses
   - Calls `relayMessage` on the Relay Router contract on Ethereum Mainnet
   - Relay Router forwards to Relay Bridge
   - Relay Bridge calls `ccipReceive` and transfers tokens to recipient

## Configuration

Key configuration options in `.env`:

- `RPC_URL_138`: RPC endpoint for Chain 138 (default: `http://192.168.11.250:8545`)
- `RPC_URL_MAINNET`: RPC endpoint for Ethereum Mainnet (default: `https://eth.llamarpc.com`)
- `PRIVATE_KEY` or `RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY`: Private key for relayer (needs ETH on mainnet for gas)
- `START_BLOCK`: Block number to start monitoring from (default: `latest` or specific block number)
- `POLL_INTERVAL`: How often to poll for new events in milliseconds (default: `5000`)
- `CONFIRMATION_BLOCKS`: Number of confirmations to wait before processing (default: `1`)
- `MAX_RETRIES`: Maximum retry attempts for failed relays (default: `3`)
- `RETRY_DELAY`: Delay between retries in milliseconds (default: `5000`)

## Critical Requirements

### Bridge Funding

**The relay bridge must be funded with WETH9 tokens before it can complete transfers.**

- Bridge Address: `0xF9A32F37099c582D28b4dE7Fca6eaC1e5259f939`
- WETH9 Address: `0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2`
- Current Status: Bridge must have sufficient WETH9 to cover all transfers

To check bridge balance:
```bash
cast call 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 \
  "balanceOf(address)" \
  0xF9A32F37099c582D28b4dE7Fca6eaC1e5259f939 \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL_MAINNET
```

To fund the bridge (if you have WETH9):
```bash
cast send 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 \
  "transfer(address,uint256)" \
  0xF9A32F37099c582D28b4dE7Fca6eaC1e5259f939 \
  20000000000000000000000 \
  --rpc-url $RPC_URL_MAINNET \
  --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY
```

## Security Considerations

- **Relayer Role**: Only addresses with relayer role can call `relayMessage`
- **Bridge Authorization**: Only authorized bridges can receive messages
- **Replay Protection**: Messages are tracked by messageId to prevent duplicate processing
- **Access Control**: Admin can add/remove bridges and relayers
- **Token Address Mapping**: Source chain token addresses are mapped to destination chain addresses

## Monitoring

The service logs all activities. Check logs for:
- `relay-service.log`: Combined log output
- Console output: Real-time status

Monitor key metrics:
- Messages detected per hour
- Messages relayed successfully
- Failed relay attempts
- Bridge WETH9 balance

## Troubleshooting

### Service won't start
1. Check all environment variables are set correctly
2. Verify RPC endpoints are accessible
3. Ensure private key is valid and properly expanded (use `.env.local` if needed)
4. Check Node.js and npm are installed

### Messages not being relayed
1. Check relayer has ETH for gas on mainnet
2. Verify relay router and bridge addresses are correct
3. Ensure relayer address has RELAYER_ROLE
4. Check bridge is authorized in router
5. Verify bridge has sufficient WETH9 balance

### Relay transactions failing
1. **Most common**: Bridge has insufficient WETH9 tokens - fund the bridge
2. Check gas limit is sufficient (default: 1,000,000)
3. Verify message format is correct
4. Review error logs for specific revert reasons
5. Check transaction receipt for revert reason

### High gas costs
- Adjust gas limit in `RelayService.js` if needed
- Monitor gas prices and adjust timing if possible
- Consider message batching for future improvements
