Closes #1808.

These documents described interfaces that have moved. Each snippet is a copy-and-run example, so
each one failed at the point where somebody tried to use it.

What changed

crates/support/README.md

  • The request example passed threshold and e3ProgramParams. Neither field exists. E3RequestParams
    takes committeeSize, which is an enum rather than an [M, N] pair, and paramSet. The example
    also omitted paramSet, expectedFeeToken, expectedCryptoConfigId, and maxFee.
  • The Boundless block labelled six values as defaults. All six differed from build_offer(), and the
    README's own later table already held the correct ones. Someone copying the first block offered
    twenty times the intended minimum price.
  • The journal description listed seven bound values. There are nine; the parameter hash and the input
    root were missing, and both verifier layers check them.
  • Two webhook examples and the /run_compute example sent a numeric e3_id. The field is a string.
  • The Step 5 text said the server falls back to dev mode when Boundless configuration is absent. The
    backend comes from risc0_dev_mode alone, and the README already documents that in Step 1.
  • The container build section named .github/workflows/support-docker.yml, which does not exist.
  • The directory list named guest/; the guest is at methods/guest/.
  • fixtures/payload.json predates ComputeRequest, so the Testing section now says so.

docs/pages/building-with-interfold.mdx

  • getE3Quote and request were shown with positional parameters. Both take one E3RequestParams.
  • E3Requested's third parameter was IE3Program indexed e3Program; it is bytes32 indexed cryptoConfigId.
  • CiphertextOutputPublished omitted ciphertextCommitment. InputPublished carried an inputHash
    the program event does not have.
  • The E3 struct misdescribed seed and requestBlock and omitted ciphertextCommitment.
  • maxDuration was described as an input-window limit. It bounds the worst-case request-to-decryption
    duration.
  • The responsibilities list and the KeyPublished row assigned input handling to Interfold. Input
    submission and the input tree belong to each E3 program.
  • The Merkle-tree section described a Lean tree owned by Interfold. The default template uses
    InternalLazyIMT and inserts each SAFE ciphertext commitment directly as a leaf.
  • The Failed row said refunds are initiated on entry. processE3Failure calculates them.
  • The result-publication flow mentioned only the E3 program verifier. The protocol verifier runs first
    and both must pass.
  • The JavaScript request snippet reverted as written. request pulls the fee with transferFrom, and
    it rejects a quote above maxFee.

crates/compute-provider/Readme.md

  • The dependency line combined git and path, which cargo rejects outright.
  • The snippets imported voting_core::fhe_processor and methods::VOTING_ELF; neither exists.
  • The batch_size description promised a power-of-two constraint that nothing enforces.

templates/default/interfold.config.yaml is included because its comment described the same six
Boundless fields as usable overrides, which now contradicts the README. See #1812 for the flag
mismatch underneath that.

How this was checked

Every corrected value was read from the current source, and the executable snippets were run rather
than eyeballed:

  • The Solidity E3RequestParams literal compiles verbatim under solc 0.8.28.
  • The JavaScript requestParams object encodes against the compiled Interfold ABI, for both
    request and getE3Quote.
  • The Rust usage snippet compiles against e3-compute-provider with a local FHEProcessor stub, and
    the corrected dependency line resolves through cargo generate-lockfile.
  • The YAML block parses through interfold config get.
  • build_offer() was executed with the six variables unset, and printed the six documented defaults.
  • The journal layout is pinned by compute_result_journal_matches_crisp_layout, which passes.

Left alone on purpose

The Result Verification paragraph in building-with-interfold.mdx keeps its current wording.

Note on overlap: open PR #1772 corrects the committee_public_key field in the /run_compute
example as an incidental part of a feature change. This PR corrects it too, because leaving a known
wrong field in a PR about stale API references made the surrounding warning awkward. Both edits set
the same value, so a conflict resolves to one line.

Limit details: You’ve used all 1 included review currently available under your plan.

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR updates documentation and examples for current compute-provider APIs, support runtime behavior, Interfold request interfaces, verification flow, event fields, fee handling, and launcher configuration.

Changes

API documentation alignment

Layer / File(s) Summary
Compute-provider examples
crates/compute-provider/Readme.md
Examples now use generic ComputeProvider execution, current RISC Zero output fields, and documented batch_size behavior.
Support runtime and proof flow
crates/support/README.md
The README now uses current request fields, string E3 identifiers, updated proving and proof-binding details, current CI jobs, and launcher behavior.
Interfold contract flow and launcher guidance
docs/pages/building-with-interfold.mdx, templates/default/interfold.config.yaml
Documentation now describes program-owned input handling, updated E3 events and fields, verifier checks, fee quoting, request submission, and auction defaults.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 87120

The documentation corrections make copy-and-run examples accurate, but one fixture warning still appears inconsistent with the documented request payload and could mislead users preparing test requests. The PR is otherwise mergeable with owner follow-up on that bounded issue.

Closes theinterfold#1808.

The request example, journal description, event signatures, JSON payload
shapes, and Boundless defaults in these documents no longer matched the
code. Every corrected value was checked against the current source, and
the executable snippets were run: the Solidity literal compiles under
solc 0.8.28, the JavaScript object encodes against the compiled Interfold
ABI, the Rust snippet compiles against e3-compute-provider, and the YAML
parses through the interfold CLI.

Two known-stale items are left alone on purpose. The Result Verification
paragraph in building-with-interfold.mdx keeps its current wording, and
the committee_public_key field in the /run_compute example is already
fixed by open PR theinterfold#1772.

templates/default/interfold.config.yaml is included because its comment
described the Boundless auction fields as usable overrides, which now
contradicts the README. See theinterfold#1812 for the underlying flag mismatch.

The warning pointed at the Step 7 request body, which still carries the
field name that PR theinterfold#1772 corrects. Following it produced a request that
also fails. The warning now lists the required fields and points at the
ComputeRequest type instead.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
ComputeRequest declares committee_public_key_hash and the handler reads
that field. Open PR theinterfold#1772 corrects the same line as an incidental part of
a feature change; both edits set the same value, so a conflict resolves
to one line.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The paragraph had accumulated a clause per review round and named five
internal files in a user-facing README. It now states what the reader can
and cannot do, and points at theinterfold#1812 for the launcher defect.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Four passages had gained a clause per review to satisfy a finding, without
anyone checking whether the passage still read. Removed the mechanism
details that carry no consequence for a reader, and dropped the field list
that duplicated the Step 7 body now that it is correct.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The paragraph described an unvalidated input that panics, with nothing
tracking it. Filed as theinterfold#1815 and trimmed the note to match.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The batch_size note described a constructor that does not validate its
input, which no reader needs and theinterfold#1815 tracks. The payload.json note
listed the missing fields the reader does not have to know. Both are now
plain descriptions.
