+# Attestation Validation
+
+This module validates `CheckpointAttestation` gossipsub messages. Attestations are signatures from committee members endorsing a checkpoint proposal.
+
+**Topic**: `checkpoint_attestation` | **Snappy size limit**: 5 KB
+
+## Stage 1: AttestationValidator (Gossipsub Validation)
+
+| # | Rule | Consequence | Severity | File |
+|---|------|-------------|----------|------|
+| 1 | **Slot timeliness**: `currentSlot` or `nextSlot`. Previous slot within 500ms: IGNORE. Older: REJECT. | REJECT or IGNORE | HighToleranceError | `attestation_validator.ts` |
+| 2 | **Attester signature**: `getSender()` must recover valid address | REJECT | LowToleranceError | same |
+| 3 | **Attester in committee**: recovered address in committee for slot | REJECT | HighToleranceError | same |
+| 4 | **Proposer exists**: `getProposerAttesterAddressInSlot` must return defined | REJECT | HighToleranceError | same |
+| 5 | **Proposer signature**: `getProposer()` must recover valid address | REJECT | LowToleranceError | same |
+| 6 | **Proposer matches expected**: recovered proposer = expected for slot | REJECT | HighToleranceError | same |
+| 7 | **NoCommitteeError**: committee unavailable | REJECT | LowToleranceError | same |
+
+**Fisherman mode extension** (`FishermanAttestationValidator`): if a checkpoint proposal for the same archive exists in pool, the attestation's `ConsensusPayload` must `.equals()` the stored proposal's payload. On mismatch: REJECT + LowToleranceError.
+
+## Stage 2: Pool Admission
+
+| # | Rule | Consequence |
+|---|------|-------------|
+| 8 | Sender recoverable (pool-side) | Silent drop |
+| 9 | Not a duplicate (same slot + proposalId + signer) | IGNORE |
+| 10 | Per-signer cap: `MAX_ATTESTATIONS_PER_SLOT_AND_SIGNER` = 2 | IGNORE |
+
+Own attestations added via `addOwnCheckpointAttestations` bypass the per-signer cap.
+
+## Stage 3: Equivocation Detection
+
+When a signer's attestation count for a slot reaches exactly 2 (different proposals): `duplicateAttestationCallback` fires -> `WANT_TO_SLASH_EVENT` with `OffenseType.DUPLICATE_ATTESTATION`. Attestation still ACCEPTED and rebroadcast. Callback fires once (not again at count 3+).
+
+## Validation at L1 Checkpoint Submission (Archiver)
+
+| Rule | Consequence | File |
+|------|-------------|------|
+| Each attestation must have recoverable signature (or address-only is allowed but does not count toward quorum) | Checkpoint rejected as invalid | `archiver/src/modules/validation.ts` |
+| Attestation at index `i` must correspond to committee member at index `i` | Checkpoint rejected as invalid | same |
+| Valid attestation count >= floor(committee * 2/3) + 1 | Checkpoint rejected as invalid | same |
+| No committee / escape hatch open | Accepted unconditionally | same |
+
+Note: `skipValidateCheckpointAttestations` config flag bypasses all archiver attestation validation.
+
+## Gossipsub Topic Scoring
+
+P3 enabled with expected messages per slot = `targetCommitteeSize`. Conservative threshold (30% of convergence value). Max P3 penalty = -34 per topic.

+# Proposal Validation
+
+This module validates `BlockProposal` and `CheckpointProposal` gossipsub messages. Both share the same base `ProposalValidator` (neither subclass overrides `validate()`), with checkpoint-specific logic layered on top in the gossipsub handler.
+
+## BlockProposal
+
+**Topic**: `block_proposal` | **Snappy size limit**: 10 MB
+
+### Stage 1: Gossipsub Validation (ProposalValidator)
+
+File: `proposal_validator.ts`
+
+| # | Rule | Consequence | Severity |
+|---|------|-------------|----------|
+| 1 | **Slot check**: must be `currentSlot` or `nextSlot`. Previous slot within 500ms tolerance: IGNORE. | REJECT | HighToleranceError |
+| 2 | **Signature**: `getSender()` must recover a valid address. If `signedTxs` present, its recovered sender must match. | REJECT | MidToleranceError |
+| 3 | **Txs permitted**: if `disableTransactions`, must have 0 txHashes and 0 embedded txs | REJECT | MidToleranceError |
+| 4 | **Max txs**: `txHashes.length <= maxTxsPerBlock` | REJECT | MidToleranceError |
+| 5 | **Embedded txs in txHashes**: every embedded tx's hash must appear in `txHashes` | REJECT | MidToleranceError |
+| 6 | **Proposer check**: signer must match expected proposer for slot (skipped if committee size = 0) | REJECT | MidToleranceError |
+| 7 | **Tx hash integrity**: each embedded tx's recomputed hash must match declared hash | REJECT | LowToleranceError |
+| 8 | **NoCommitteeError**: epoch cache cannot determine committee | REJECT | LowToleranceError |
+
+Deserialization guards: `BlockProposal.fromBuffer` and `SignedTxs.fromBuffer` both enforce `txCount <= MAX_TXS_PER_BLOCK` (65536). Violation -> REJECT + LowToleranceError.
+
+### Stage 2: Mempool (Attestation Pool)
+
+| # | Rule | Consequence |
+|---|------|-------------|
+| 9 | **Duplicate**: same archive root already stored | IGNORE (no penalty) |
+| 10 | **Per-position cap**: max 2 proposals per (slot, indexWithinCheckpoint) | REJECT + HighToleranceError |
+| 11 | **Equivocation**: >1 distinct proposal for same (slot, index) | ACCEPT (rebroadcast for detection). At count=2: `duplicateProposalCallback` fires -> slash event (`OffenseType.DUPLICATE_PROPOSAL`, configured via `slashDuplicateProposalPenalty`) |
+
+### Stage 3: Validator-Client Processing (BlockProposalHandler)
+
+Only runs on validator nodes. Non-validator nodes use a default handler that triggers tx collection without deep validation.
+
+| # | Rule | Failure Reason |
+|---|------|----------------|
+| 12 | Signature re-check | `invalid_proposal` |
+| 13 | ProposalValidator re-run | `invalid_proposal` |
+| 14 | Self-proposal filter | Ignored silently |
+| 15 | Parent block exists (`lastArchive.root` matches known block or genesis) | `parent_block_not_found` |
+| 16 | Parent block slot <= proposal slot | `parent_block_wrong_slot` |
+| 17 | Block number not already in archiver | `block_number_already_exists` |
+| 18 | Checkpoint number consistency (multiple sub-rules for first/non-first blocks) | `invalid_proposal` |
+| 19 | Global variables consistency (non-first block: chainId, version, slot, timestamp, coinbase, feeRecipient, gasFees match parent) | `global_variables_mismatch` |
+| 20 | L1-to-L2 message hash matches `proposal.inHash` | `in_hash_mismatch` |
+| 21 | All txs referenced by `txHashes` obtainable | `txs_not_available` |
+| 22 | **Re-execution**: processed tx count matches `txHashes.length` | `timeout` (ReExTimeoutError) |
+| 23 | **Re-execution**: no failed txs | `failed_txs` (ReExFailedTxsError) -- **SLASHABLE** |
+| 24 | **Re-execution**: archive root and header match proposal | `state_mismatch` (ReExStateMismatchError) -- **SLASHABLE** |
+
+**Escape hatch**: during escape hatch periods (`isEscapeHatchOpenAtSlot`), re-execution and slashing are both disabled, and the proposal is rejected locally.
+
+**Conditional re-execution**: rules 22-24 only run when at least one condition is true: `fishermanMode` enabled, `slashBroadcastedInvalidBlockPenalty > 0`, committee membership, `alwaysReexecuteBlockProposals`, or `blobClient.canUpload()`.
+
+**Slashing**: only `state_mismatch` and `failed_txs` trigger on-chain slashing (`OffenseType.BROADCASTED_INVALID_BLOCK_PROPOSAL`, gated by `slashBroadcastedInvalidBlockPenalty > 0`). Unknown errors during re-execution do NOT slash.
+
+**Embedded tx validation**: txs in `signedTxs` are validated via `createTxValidatorForBlockProposalReceivedTxs` (well-formedness only) when stored in the tx pool. Invalid embedded txs are rejected from the pool but do not cause the block proposal itself to be rejected at gossipsub level.
+
+### Gossipsub Topic Scoring
+
+| Parameter | Effect |
+|-----------|--------|
+| P4 (invalidMessageDeliveries) | weight = -20, decay over 4 slots |
+| P3 (meshMessageDeliveries) | Enabled only when `expectedBlockProposalsPerSlot > 0` (MBPS mode) |
+| P1/P2 | Only active when P3 is enabled |
+
+---
+
+## CheckpointProposal
+
+**Topic**: `checkpoint_proposal` | **Snappy size limit**: 10 MB
+
+### Stage 1: Gossipsub Validation (ProposalValidator)
+
+Same `ProposalValidator.validate()` as BlockProposal (shared implementation, neither subclass overrides it). See BlockProposal Stage 1 rules 1-8.
+
+### Stage 2: Embedded Block Proposal Validation (if `lastBlock` present)
+
+The checkpoint's embedded `lastBlock` is extracted via `getBlockProposal()` and validated through `BlockProposalValidator.validate()` plus block mempool checks.
+
+| Rule | Consequence | File |
+|------|-------------|------|
+| Block proposal must pass `BlockProposalValidator.validate()` | If REJECT: entire checkpoint REJECTED | `libp2p_service.ts` |
+| Block proposal must not exceed per-position cap (2) | Checkpoint REJECTED + HighToleranceError | same |
+| Block equivocation detected (>1 proposals for same slot+index) | Checkpoint REJECTED (block itself is ACCEPT for re-broadcast) | same |
+
+### Stage 3: Mempool (Attestation Pool)
+
+| Rule | Consequence | File |
+|------|-------------|------|
+| Duplicate (same archive ID) | IGNORE (no penalty). Embedded block still processed if valid. | `attestation_pool.ts` |
+| Per-slot cap: `MAX_CHECKPOINT_PROPOSALS_PER_SLOT` = 2 | REJECT + HighToleranceError. Embedded block still processed. | same |
+
+### Stage 4: Equivocation Detection
+
+When >1 checkpoint proposals exist for same slot (count > 1): ACCEPT (re-broadcast). At count == 2 (exactly): `duplicateProposalCallback` fires. Proposal NOT further processed. Callback fires only once per equivocation pair.
+
+### Stage 5: Validator-Client Consensus Validation
+
+Determines whether the validator signs an attestation.
+
+| Rule | Consequence | File |
+|------|-------------|------|
+| Escape hatch open | No attestation | `validator-client/src/validator.ts` |
+| Signature invalid (re-check) | No attestation | same |
+| Self-proposal | No attestation (ignored) | same |
+| `feeAssetPriceModifier` outside [-100, +100] bps | No attestation | same |
+| Not in committee (unless fisherman mode) | No attestation | same |
+| Checkpoint header mismatch (computed vs proposal) | No attestation | same |
+| Archive root mismatch | No attestation | same |
+| Epoch out hash mismatch | No attestation | same |
+| Last block not found / not matching | No attestation | same |
+| Already attested to this or earlier slot | No attestation (unless `attestToEquivocatedProposals`) | same |
+

 Operates on `TxMetaData` (pre-built by the pool) rather than full `Tx` objects.
 
+The `AllowedSetupCallsMetaValidator` checks a precomputed boolean flag (`TxMetaData.allowedSetupCalls`) rather than re-running the full `PhasesTxValidator`. This flag is computed by `createCheckAllowedSetupCalls` when the tx first enters the pool (via `addProtectedTxs` or startup hydration), so the pool migration validator can reject txs with disallowed setup calls without needing the full `Tx` object or its dependencies.
