Our review

Run scenario tests against Gorlami fork RPCs to simulate live transactions before broadcasting.

Strengths

  • Prevents costly mistakes by validating transactions in a sandboxed environment
  • Supports complex multi-step scripts like swaps, lending, and bridging
  • Allows debugging of approvals, units, calldata, and gas issues offline

Limitations

  • Requires careful seeding of balances to mimic mainnet state
  • Fork RPCs may have subtle differences from real chains affecting behavior
  • Not suitable for testing real-time economic conditions like frontrunning
When to use it

Use when developing or modifying fund-moving scripts to ensure correctness and safety before live execution.

When not to use it

Do not use for testing user interfaces, API integrations, or scenarios that require live blockchain state.

Security analysis

Safe
Quality score75/100

This skill only provides documentation and guidance for running simulation dry runs in a forked environment before broadcasting live transactions. It does not contain any executable commands, network calls, file deletions, or sensitive data handling. No risk of accidental destruction or exfiltration.

Examples

Test a swap script
I want to run a dry-run simulation of my swap script using Gorlami fork RPCs. Can you help me configure the fork, seed balances, and run the scenario?
Debug approval errors
My approval transaction is failing in simulation. Show me how to debug approval calldata and units using the fork RPC dry-run.
Validate multi-step strategy
I have a multi-step lending and bridging strategy. I need to run a scenario test against a Gorlami fork before broadcasting. What flags and patterns should I use?

When to use

Use this skill when you are:

  • Writing or modifying a fund-moving script (swaps, lending, bridging, looping)
  • Iterating on a strategy deposit/update/withdraw/exit flow
  • Debugging approvals, units, calldata shapes, gas issues, or multi-step sequencing
