📁 MEV Bot File Reorganization Plan

Current Problem: Chaotic File Structure

The current arbitrum package has scattered functionality with confusing prefixes:

• enhanced_parser.go, enhanced_example.go, enhanced_types.go
• optimized_*.go files with duplicated functionality
• Broken files moved to .broken extensions
• Type conflicts between packages
• Missing interfaces and poor separation of concerns

🎯 PROPOSED NEW STRUCTURE

Phase 1: Core Package Reorganization

pkg/arbitrum/
├── core/
│   ├── types.go           # Core types (Protocol, PoolInfo, etc.)
│   ├── interfaces.go      # All interfaces in one place
│   └── constants.go       # Protocol constants and addresses
├── parsing/
│   ├── parser.go          # Main parser interface
│   ├── dex_parser.go      # DEX-specific parsing logic
│   ├── event_parser.go    # Event parsing (merge enhanced_parser)
│   └── transaction_parser.go  # Transaction parsing
├── discovery/
│   ├── market_discovery.go    # Market discovery (existing)
│   ├── pool_discovery.go      # Pool discovery logic
│   └── factory_discovery.go   # Factory contract discovery
├── monitoring/
│   ├── event_monitor.go       # Event monitoring (existing)
│   ├── sequencer_monitor.go   # Sequencer-specific monitoring
│   └── metrics.go            # Monitoring metrics
├── pipeline/
│   ├── swap_pipeline.go       # Swap processing pipeline (existing)
│   ├── mev_pipeline.go        # MEV opportunity pipeline
│   └── arbitrage_pipeline.go  # Arbitrage detection pipeline
├── cache/
│   ├── pool_cache.go          # Pool caching (existing)
│   ├── token_cache.go         # Token metadata caching
│   └── price_cache.go         # Price data caching
└── integration/
    ├── examples.go            # Integration examples (merge enhanced_example)
    ├── guides.go              # Integration guides
    └── testing.go             # Integration testing helpers

Phase 2: Merge Enhanced/Optimized Functionality

2.1 Enhanced Parser → parsing/event_parser.go

• Merge enhanced_parser.go functionality into parsing/event_parser.go
• Keep advanced features: comprehensive DEX support, price enrichment
• Maintain backwards compatibility with existing parser interface

2.2 Protocol Parsers → parsing/dex_parser.go

• Consolidate protocol_parsers.go into parsing/dex_parser.go
• Factory pattern for different DEX protocols
• Clean interface for adding new protocols

2.3 Type Definitions → core/types.go

• Single source of truth for all types
• Remove duplicate definitions from enhanced_types.go
• Proper package organization for types

2.4 Integration Examples → integration/examples.go

• Merge enhanced_example.go and integration_guide.go
• Comprehensive examples for different use cases
• Clear documentation and best practices

Phase 3: Interface Standardization

3.1 Create core/interfaces.go

package core

// ParserInterface - unified parser interface
type ParserInterface interface {
    ParseTransaction(tx *types.Transaction) (*ParseResult, error)
    ParseEvent(log types.Log) (*EventResult, error)
    GetSupportedProtocols() []Protocol
}

// DiscoveryInterface - market discovery interface
type DiscoveryInterface interface {
    DiscoverPools(tokenA, tokenB common.Address) ([]*PoolInfo, error)
    GetPoolInfo(address common.Address) (*PoolInfo, error)
    UpdatePoolState(update *PoolStateUpdate) error
}

// CacheInterface - caching interface
type CacheInterface interface {
    Get(key string) (interface{}, bool)
    Set(key string, value interface{}, ttl time.Duration)
    Invalidate(key string)
}

3.2 Backwards Compatibility

• Keep existing public APIs working
• Add deprecation warnings for old interfaces
• Gradual migration path for consumers

Phase 4: File Naming Convention

4.1 Clear Naming Rules

✅ GOOD:
- parser.go (main functionality)
- event_monitor.go (specific purpose)
- pool_cache.go (clear responsibility)

❌ BAD:
- enhanced_parser.go (ambiguous prefix)
- optimized_scanner.go (unclear what's optimized)
- new_types.go (temporary-sounding name)

4.2 Package-Level Organization

• Each directory has a clear, single responsibility
• Interfaces defined at package level
• Implementation details internal to package

🔧 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

Step 1: Create New Structure (Non-Breaking)

# Create new directory structure
mkdir -p pkg/arbitrum/{core,parsing,discovery,monitoring,pipeline,cache,integration}

# Move and rename files systematically
mv pkg/arbitrum/event_monitor.go pkg/arbitrum/monitoring/
mv pkg/arbitrum/pool_cache.go pkg/arbitrum/cache/
mv pkg/arbitrum/swap_pipeline.go pkg/arbitrum/pipeline/

Step 2: Merge Enhanced Functionality

# Merge enhanced files into appropriate locations
# enhanced_parser.go → parsing/event_parser.go
# enhanced_example.go → integration/examples.go
# enhanced_types.go → core/types.go (merge with existing)

Step 3: Fix Imports and Dependencies

# Update all import statements
# Fix interface implementations
# Resolve type conflicts

Step 4: Update Consumers

# Update pkg/monitor/ to use new structure
# Update pkg/market/ to use new interfaces
# Fix any external dependencies

📋 SPECIFIC MERGE OPERATIONS

Enhanced Parser Merge

// FROM: enhanced_parser.go (broken)
// TO:   parsing/event_parser.go

type EventParser struct {
    // Merge: EnhancedDEXParser functionality
    client          *rpc.Client
    logger          *logger.Logger
    oracle          *oracle.PriceOracle
    protocolParsers map[core.Protocol]ParserInterface

    // Keep: Enhanced features
    enrichmentService *EventEnrichmentService
    tokenMetadata     *TokenMetadataService
    metrics          *core.ParserMetrics
}

Protocol Parsers Merge

// FROM: protocol_parsers.go
// TO:   parsing/dex_parser.go

type DEXParserFactory struct {
    client *rpc.Client
    logger *logger.Logger
}

func (f *DEXParserFactory) CreateParser(protocol core.Protocol) core.ParserInterface {
    // Factory method for all supported DEX protocols
}

Types Consolidation

// FROM: enhanced_types.go, existing types
// TO:   core/types.go

package core

// Single source of truth for all types
type Protocol string
type PoolInfo struct { /* unified definition */ }
type ParseResult struct { /* unified definition */ }
// etc.

🎯 BENEFITS OF REORGANIZATION
