Web3 Frontend Integration

wagmi + viem Setup

// lib/wagmi.ts
import { createConfig, http } from 'wagmi'
import { mainnet, sepolia, arbitrum } from 'wagmi/chains'
import { coinbaseWallet, injected, walletConnect } from 'wagmi/connectors'

export const config = createConfig({
  chains: [mainnet, sepolia, arbitrum],
  connectors: [
    injected(),
    coinbaseWallet({ appName: 'My App' }),
    walletConnect({ projectId: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_WC_PROJECT_ID! }),
  ],
  transports: {
    [mainnet.id]: http(),
    [sepolia.id]: http(),
    [arbitrum.id]: http(),
  },
})

// hooks/useVault.ts
import { useReadContract, useWriteContract, useWaitForTransactionReceipt } from 'wagmi'
import { parseEther } from 'viem'
import { vaultAbi } from '../abis/vault'

export function useVault(address: `0x${string}`) {
  const { data: balance } = useReadContract({
    address,
    abi: vaultAbi,
    functionName: 'getBalance',
    args: [address],
  })

  const { writeContract, data: hash, isPending } = useWriteContract()

  const { isLoading: isConfirming, isSuccess } = useWaitForTransactionReceipt({
    hash,
  })

  const deposit = async (amount: string) => {
    writeContract({
      address,
      abi: vaultAbi,
      functionName: 'deposit',
      args: [parseEther(amount)],
    })
  }

  const withdraw = async (amount: string) => {
    writeContract({
      address,
      abi: vaultAbi,
      functionName: 'withdraw',
      args: [parseEther(amount)],
    })
  }

  return {
    balance,
    deposit,
    withdraw,
    isPending,
    isConfirming,
    isSuccess,
  }
}

RainbowKit Integration

// app/providers.tsx
'use client'

import { RainbowKitProvider, getDefaultConfig } from '@rainbow-me/rainbowkit'
import { WagmiProvider } from 'wagmi'
import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from '@tanstack/react-query'
import { mainnet, sepolia } from 'wagmi/chains'

const config = getDefaultConfig({
  appName: 'My DApp',
  projectId: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_WC_PROJECT_ID!,
  chains: [mainnet, sepolia],
})

const queryClient = new QueryClient()

export function Providers({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  return (
    <WagmiProvider config={config}>
      <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
        <RainbowKitProvider>
          {children}
        </RainbowKitProvider>
      </QueryClientProvider>
    </WagmiProvider>
  )
}

Security Best Practices

Common Vulnerabilities

// ❌ BAD: Reentrancy vulnerable
function withdraw(uint256 amount) external {
    require(balances[msg.sender] >= amount);
    (bool success, ) = msg.sender.call{value: amount}("");
    require(success);
    balances[msg.sender] -= amount; // State update after external call
}

// ✅ GOOD: Checks-Effects-Interactions pattern
function withdraw(uint256 amount) external nonReentrant {
    require(balances[msg.sender] >= amount);
    balances[msg.sender] -= amount; // State update first
    (bool success, ) = msg.sender.call{value: amount}("");
    require(success);
}

// ❌ BAD: Unchecked external call
token.transfer(to, amount);

// ✅ GOOD: Use SafeERC20
token.safeTransfer(to, amount);

Gas Optimization

// Use calldata instead of memory for external functions
function process(bytes calldata data) external { }

// Pack storage variables
struct User {
    uint128 balance;    // 16 bytes
    uint64 lastUpdate;  // 8 bytes
    uint64 nonce;       // 8 bytes - total 32 bytes (1 slot)
}

// Use unchecked for safe arithmetic
unchecked {
    i++; // Save gas when overflow is impossible
}

// Cache array length
uint256 length = array.length;
for (uint256 i = 0; i < length; ) {
    // ...
    unchecked { i++; }
}

Deployment Scripts

// script/Deploy.s.sol
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.20;

import "forge-std/Script.sol";
import "../src/Token.sol";
import "../src/Vault.sol";

contract DeployScript is Script {
    function run() external {
        uint256 deployerPrivateKey = vm.envUint("PRIVATE_KEY");
        address deployer = vm.addr(deployerPrivateKey);

        vm.startBroadcast(deployerPrivateKey);

        MyToken token = new MyToken(deployer);
        Vault vault = new Vault(address(token), deployer);

        vm.stopBroadcast();

        console.log("Token deployed to:", address(token));
        console.log("Vault deployed to:", address(vault));
    }
}

Success Output

When implementation completes:

✅ AGENT COMPLETE: blockchain-developer
Contracts: <count> deployed
Tests: <count> passing (including fuzz)
Gas: <average gas usage>
Security: Audit checklist passed

Completion Checklist

Before marking complete:

• Contracts compile without warnings
• All tests passing (unit + fuzz)

• Documentation complete
• Deployment script ready

Failure Indicators

This agent has FAILED if:

• ❌ Compilation errors
• ❌ Tests failing

• ❌ Excessive gas usage
• ❌ Missing access controls

When NOT to Use

Do NOT use when:

• Traditional web2 backend (use backend-development)
• No blockchain requirement
• Centralized database sufficient
• No smart contract needed

Anti-Patterns (Avoid)

Anti-Pattern	Problem	Solution
Reentrancy vulnerable	Fund theft	Use ReentrancyGuard
Unchecked transfers	Silent failures	Use SafeERC20
tx.origin auth	Phishing risk	Use msg.sender
No upgradability plan	Locked bugs	Use proxy pattern
