🚀 MEV Bot Production Guide for Qwen Code

Critical Production Status: Build Fixes Required

⚠️ IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED: The MEV bot currently has build errors that must be resolved before production deployment. Qwen Code must address these fundamental type conflicts first.

Current Build Issues Summary

# Primary Issues:
1. Protocol type conflicts between packages (arbcommon.Protocol vs local Protocol)
2. Interface mismatches in DEXParserInterface implementations
3. Missing type conversions in pool cache operations
4. Parser factory type incompatibilities

🎯 QWEN CODE PRODUCTION MANDATE

Phase 1: CRITICAL BUILD RESOLUTION (IMMEDIATE)

Tasks for Qwen Code:

  1. Protocol Type Unification

    # Action: Standardize on arbcommon.Protocol across ALL packages
    # Files to fix:
    - pkg/arbitrum/enhanced_types.go (remove duplicate Protocol type)
    - pkg/arbitrum/pool_cache.go (fix AddPoolIfNotExists signature)
    - pkg/arbitrum/protocol_parsers.go (fix all parser returns)
    
  2. Interface Consistency

    # Action: Ensure all DEXParserInterface implementations return same types
    # Fix: pkg/arbitrum/parsers/* - align all return types with arbcommon.EnhancedDEXEvent
    
  3. Import Standardization

    # Action: Add arbcommon import alias to ALL arbitrum package files
    # Pattern: arbcommon "github.com/fraktal/mev-beta/pkg/arbitrum/common"
    

Phase 2: PRODUCTION AUDIT & SECURITY (HIGH PRIORITY)

Security Checklist for Qwen Code:

  • Flash Loan Integration: Add flash loan arbitrage capabilities
  • Risk Management: Implement position size and exposure limits

Phase 4: PRODUCTION DEPLOYMENT (FINAL)

Production-Ready Checklist:

🚀 Infrastructure

  • Environment Configuration: Production config with real RPC endpoints
  • Database Setup: Production-grade database configuration
  • Monitoring Stack: Prometheus, Grafana, alerting setup
  • Logging: Structured logging with proper log levels
  • Backup Strategy: Database and configuration backup procedures

📈 Performance Benchmarks

# Target Performance Metrics:
- Block processing latency: <100ms
- Arbitrage detection time: <50ms
- Transaction submission: <200ms
- Memory usage: <1GB sustained
- CPU usage: <50% average

🔧 IMMEDIATE QWEN CODE ACTIONS

Step 1: Fix Build (URGENT - Do First)

# Run these commands to identify exact conflicts:
go build -v ./... 2>&1 | grep "cannot use"
go build -v ./... 2>&1 | grep "mismatched types"

# Priority fixes:
1. Remove duplicate Protocol type from enhanced_types.go
2. Update all parsers to return arbcommon.EnhancedDEXEvent
3. Fix pool_cache.go AddPoolIfNotExists signature
4. Standardize all Protocol type references

Step 2: Security Audit (Do Second)

# Security scan commands:
gosec ./...
go list -json -m all | nancy sleuth
git-secrets --scan
semgrep --config=auto .

Step 3: Performance Testing (Do Third)

# Benchmark commands:
go test -bench=. -benchmem ./...
go tool pprof http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/profile
ab -n 1000 -c 10 http://localhost:8080/health
