Core L1 Smart Contracts

Below you'll find an architecture diagram describing the core L1 smart contracts for the OP Stack. Smart contracts that are considered "peripheral" and not core to the operation of the OP Stack system are described separately.

Notes for Core L1 Smart Contracts

• The Batch Data Address described above (highlighted in GREY) is not a smart contract and is instead simply an arbitrarily chosen account that is assumed to have no known private key. This account is typically chosen as the account 0xFF0000....<L2 chain ID> where <L2 chain ID> is chain ID of the Layer 2 network for which the data is being posted. For instance, for OP Mainnet, this account is chosen as 0xFF00000000000000000000000000000000000010. However, this is not a strict requirement and some OP Stack chains may not follow this convention.
• Smart contracts that sit behind Proxy contracts are highlighted in BLUE. Refer to the Smart Contract Proxies section below to understand how these proxies are designed.
  • The L1CrossDomainMessenger contract sits behind the ResolvedDelegateProxy contract, a legacy proxy contract type used within older versions of the OP Stack. This proxy type is used exclusively for the L1CrossDomainMessenger to maintain backwards compatibility.
  • The L1StandardBridge contract sits behind the L1ChugSplashProxy contract, a legacy proxy contract type used within older versions of the OP Stack. This proxy type is used exclusively for the L1StandardBridge contract to maintain backwards compatibility.

Notes for Core L2 Smart Contracts

• Contracts highlighted as "L2 System Contracts" are updated or mutated automatically as part of the chain derivation process. Users typically do not mutate these contracts directly, except in the case of the FeeVault contracts where any user may trigger a withdrawal of collected fees to the pre-determined withdrawal address.
• Smart contracts that sit behind Proxy contracts are highlighted in BLUE. Refer to the Smart Contract Proxies section below to understand how these proxies are designed.
• User interactions for the "L2 Bridge Contracts" have been omitted from this diagram but largely follow the same user interactions described in the architecture diagram for the Core L1 Smart Contracts.

Smart Contract Proxies

Most L1 and L2 smart contracts for OP Stack chains today sit behind Proxy contracts that themselves are managed by a ProxyAdmin contract. The ProxyAdmin contract is controlled by some owner address that can be any EOA or smart contract. Below you'll find a diagram that explains the behavior of the typical proxy contract.

External Usage

Using OP Stack Contracts in Solidity

OP Stack smart contracts are published to NPM and can be installed via:

npm install @eth-optimism/contracts-bedrock.

Refer to the Optimism Developer Docs for additional information about how to use this package.

Using OP Stack Contracts in JavaScript

Contract ABIs and addresses are published to NPM in a separate package and can be installed via:

npm install @eth-optimism/contracts-ts

Refer to the Optimism Developer Docs for additional information about how to use this package.

Deployed Addresses

See the Optimism Developer Docs for the deployed addresses of these smart contracts for OP Mainnet and OP Sepolia.

Contributing

Contributing Guide

Contributions to the OP Stack are always welcome. Please refer to the CONTRIBUTING.md for more information about how to contribute to the OP Stack smart contracts.

Style Guide

OP Stack smart contracts should be written according to the STYLE_GUIDE.md found within this repository. Maintaining a consistent code style makes code easier to review and maintain, ultimately making the development process safer.

Deployment

The smart contracts are deployed using foundry. The DEPLOYMENT_OUTFILE env var will determine the filepath that the deployment artifact is written to on disk after the deployment. It comes in the form of a JSON file where keys are the names of the contracts and the values are the addresses the contract was deployed to.

The DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH is a filepath to a deploy config file, see the deploy-config directory for examples and the DeployConfig definition for descriptions of the values.

DEPLOYMENT_OUTFILE=deployments/artifact.json \
DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH=<PATH_TO_MY_DEPLOY_CONFIG> \
  forge script scripts/deploy/Deploy.s.sol:Deploy \
  --broadcast --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY \
  --rpc-url $ETH_RPC_URL

The IMPL_SALT env var can be used to set the create2 salt for deploying the implementation contracts.

This will deploy an entire new system of L1 smart contracts including a new SuperchainConfig. In the future there will be an easy way to deploy only proxies and use shared implementations for each of the contracts as well as a shared SuperchainConfig contract.

Deploying Production Networks

Production users should deploy their L1 contracts from a contracts release. All contracts releases are on git tags with the following format: op-contracts/vX.Y.Z. See the release process for more information.

Generating L2 Genesis Allocs

A foundry script is used to generate the L2 genesis allocs. This is a JSON file that represents the L2 genesis state. The CONTRACT_ADDRESSES_PATH env var represents the deployment artifact that was generated during a contract deployment. The same deploy config JSON file should be used for L1 contracts deployment as when generating the L2 genesis allocs. The STATE_DUMP_PATH env var represents the filepath at which the allocs will be written to on disk.

CONTRACT_ADDRESSES_PATH=deployments/artifact.json \
DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH=<PATH_TO_MY_DEPLOY_CONFIG> \
STATE_DUMP_PATH=<PATH_TO_WRITE_L2_ALLOCS> \
  forge script scripts/L2Genesis.s.sol:L2Genesis \
  --sig 'runWithStateDump()'

Configuration

Create or modify a file <network-name>.json inside of the deploy-config folder. Use the env var DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH to use a particular deploy config file at runtime.

The script will read the latest active fork from the deploy config and the L2 genesis allocs generated will be compatible with this fork. The automatically detected fork can be overwritten by setting the environment variable FORK either to the lower-case fork name (currently delta, ecotone, or fjord) or to latest, which will select the latest fork available (currently fjord).

By default, the script will dump the L2 genesis allocs of the detected or selected fork only, to the file at STATE_DUMP_PATH. The optional environment variable OUTPUT_MODE allows to modify this behavior by setting it to one of the following values:

• latest (default) - only dump the selected fork's allocs.
• all - also dump all intermediary fork's allocs. This only works if STATE_DUMP_PATH is not set. In this case, all allocs will be written to files /state-dump-<fork>.json. Another path cannot currently be specified for this use case.
• none - won't dump any allocs. Only makes sense for internal test usage.

Custom Gas Token

The Custom Gas Token feature is a Beta feature of the MIT licensed OP Stack. While it has received initial review from core contributors, it is still undergoing testing, and may have bugs or other issues.

Execution

Before deploying the contracts, you can verify the state diff produced by the deploy script using the runWithStateDiff() function signature which produces the outputs inside snapshots/state-diff/. Run the deployment with state diffs by executing: forge script -vvv scripts/deploy/Deploy.s.sol:Deploy --sig 'runWithStateDiff()' --rpc-url $ETH_RPC_URL --broadcast --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY.

1. Set the env vars ETH_RPC_URL, PRIVATE_KEY and ETHERSCAN_API_KEY if contract verification is desired.
2. Set the DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH env var to a path on the filesystem that points to a deploy config.
3. Deploy the contracts with forge script -vvv scripts/deploy/Deploy.s.sol:Deploy --rpc-url $ETH_RPC_URL --broadcast --private-key $PRIVATE_KEY Pass the --verify flag to verify the deployments automatically with Etherscan.

Deploying a single contract

All of the functions for deploying a single contract are public meaning that the --sig argument to forge script can be used to target the deployment of a single contract.

Testing

Test Setup

The Solidity unit tests use the same codepaths to set up state that are used in production. The same L1 deploy script is used to deploy the L1 contracts for the in memory tests and the L2 state is set up using the same L2 genesis generation code that is used for production and then loaded into foundry via the vm.loadAllocs cheatcode. This helps to reduce the overhead of maintaining multiple ways to set up the state as well as give additional coverage to the "actual" way that the contracts are deployed.

The L1 contract addresses are held in deployments/hardhat/.deploy and the L2 test state is held in a .testdata directory. The L1 addresses are used to create the L2 state and it is possible for stale addresses to be pulled into the L2 state, causing tests to fail. Stale addresses may happen if the order of the L1 deployments happen differently since some contracts are deployed using CREATE. Run pnpm clean and rerun the tests if they are failing for an unknown reason.

Static Analysis

contracts-bedrock uses slither as its primary static analysis tool. Slither will be run against PRs as part of CI, and new findings will be reported as a comment on the PR. CI will fail if there are any new findings of medium or higher severity, as configured in the repo's Settings > Code Security and Analysis > Code Scanning > Protection rules setting.

There are two corresponding jobs in CI: one calls "Slither Analysis" and one called "Code scanning results / Slither". The former will always pass if Slither runs successfully, and the latter will fail if there are any new findings of medium or higher severity.

Existing findings can be found in the repo's Security tab > Code Scanning section. You can view findings for a specific PR using the pr:{number} filter, such pr:9405.

For each finding, either fix it locally and push a new commit, or dismiss it through the PR comment's UI.

Note that you can run slither locally by running slither ., but because it does not contain the triaged results from GitHub, it will be noisy. Instead, you should run slither ./path/to/contract.sol to run it against a specific file.
