✅ Environment Setup Verification - Complete

🎉 Verification Results

All scripts have been verified to properly connect to .env files and handle secrets correctly.

---

✅ Scripts Verified

1. src/strat/cli.ts ✅

• ✅ Loads dotenv FIRST (line 14-15)
• ✅ Before any other imports
• ✅ Validates RPC URLs before use
• ✅ Shows helpful error messages

2. src/cli/cli.ts ✅

• ✅ Loads dotenv FIRST (line 13-15)
• ✅ Before any other imports
• ✅ Uses PRIVATE_KEY from env for execution
• ✅ Validates private key before use

3. scripts/test-strategy.ts ✅

• ✅ Loads dotenv FIRST (line 18-19)
• ✅ Before any other imports
• ✅ Reads MAINNET_RPC_URL, TEST_SCENARIO, TEST_NETWORK
• ✅ Validates RPC URL with placeholder checks
• ✅ Shows clear error messages

4. scripts/check-env.ts ✅

• ✅ Loads dotenv FIRST
• ✅ Tests all RPC URL connections
• ✅ Validates environment setup
• ✅ Provides detailed feedback

5. scripts/verify-setup.ts ✅

• ✅ Loads dotenv FIRST
• ✅ Comprehensive setup verification
• ✅ Checks all components

---

✅ Configuration Verified

1. src/strat/config/networks.ts ✅

• ✅ Lazy-loads RPC URLs when getNetwork() is called
• ✅ Ensures dotenv is loaded before reading env vars
• ✅ Supports all network-specific env vars
• ✅ Has sensible fallbacks

2. config/chains/*.ts ✅

• ✅ Read process.env at module load
• ✅ Work correctly because entry points load dotenv first
• ✅ Have default fallbacks

✅ Validation Features

All scripts include:

• ✅ RPC URL validation (checks for placeholders like "YOUR_KEY")
• ✅ Clear error messages if not configured
• ✅ Helpful suggestions (e.g., "Run 'pnpm run check:env'")
• ✅ Fallback to defaults where appropriate

---

🔧 Verification Commands

# Check environment variables and RPC connections
pnpm run check:env

# Verify complete setup
pnpm run verify:setup

# Test with a scenario
pnpm run strat:test

🔐 Security

Check	Status	Description
.env in .gitignore	✅	.env file is in .gitignore
.env.example template	✅	.env.example provides template
Private keys protection	✅	Private keys only used when explicitly needed
RPC URL validation	✅	RPC URLs validated before use
No hardcoded secrets	✅	No hardcoded secrets

---

🧪 Test Results

Running pnpm run verify:setup shows:

• ✅ All scripts load dotenv correctly
• ✅ Network config loads correctly
• ✅ Scenario files exist
• ✅ Environment variables are accessible

---

🎉 Conclusion

All scripts are properly connected to .env files and handle secrets correctly. The setup is complete and ready for use!
