Pull Request: Add Support for Escrow and Program "Draft" State

Description

This PR implements Draft state support for both Bounty Escrow and Program Escrow contracts, enabling preparation and review before going live. Escrows and programs are now created in a Draft state where funds are locked but cannot be released or refunded until explicitly published.

Closes: #[issue-number]

Type of Change

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Contract logic change
  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Documentation update
  • Test addition

Changes Summary

Core Changes

  1. Bounty Escrow Contract ✅ Complete

    • Added Draft variant to EscrowStatus enum

    • Updated release_funds() and refund() to block Draft status
    • Added EscrowPublished event for audit trail

  2. Program Escrow Contract ⚠️ Partial

    • Added ProgramStatus enum with Draft and Active variants

Testing

Test Coverage

New Tests Added

# Bounty Escrow Draft State Tests

How to Run Tests

# Navigate to bounty escrow contract
cd contracts/bounty_escrow/contracts/escrow

# Run draft state specific tests
cargo test test_draft_state --lib

# Run all tests to ensure no regressions
cargo test --lib

# Navigate to program escrow
cd ../../../../program-escrow

# Run existing tests (should still pass)
cargo test --lib

Test Results

✅ All draft state tests passing
✅ Existing tests maintained (no regressions introduced)

State Machine Changes

Before

New → Locked → Released/Refunded

After

New → Draft → Locked → Released/Refunded
            ↑
       (publish required)

API Changes

New Functions

Bounty Escrow

/// Publish an escrow from Draft to Locked status
/// 
/// # Arguments
/// * `bounty_id` - The bounty identifier
/// 
/// # Access Control
/// Admin only
/// 
/// # Errors
/// * `Error::InvalidState` - If escrow is not in Draft status
/// * `Error::BountyNotFound` - If bounty doesn't exist
pub fn publish(env: Env, bounty_id: u64) -> Result<(), Error>

Modified Behavior

lock_funds()

  • Before: Creates escrow in Locked status
  • After: Creates escrow in Draft status

release_funds()

  • Before: Checks if status == Locked
  • After: Explicitly blocks Draft status, then checks for Locked or PartiallyRefunded

refund()

  • Before: Checks if status == Locked or PartiallyRefunded
  • After: Explicitly blocks Draft status first

Migration Guide

For Existing Deployments

Bounty Escrow: No migration needed

  • Existing escrows maintain their Locked status
  • Only newly created escrows use Draft status
  • Backward compatible

Program Escrow: Migration recommended

// Future migration function (not implemented in this PR)
pub fn migrate_existing_programs(env: Env) {
    // Set existing programs to Active status
    // to maintain current behavior
}

For Integrators

Indexers and frontends should:

  1. Handle Draft status in UI
  2. Show "Pending Publication" state
  3. Disable release/refund buttons for Draft escrows
  4. Listen for EscrowPublished events
  5. Update queries to filter by Draft status if needed

  • DRAFT_STATE_SUMMARY.md - High-level overview and usage guide

  • Test documentation

Usage Example

// 1. Lock funds (creates Draft escrow)
client.lock_funds(&depositor, &bounty_id, &amount, &deadline);

// 2. Review period (optional)
// Funds are locked but frozen

// 3. Publish to activate
client.publish(&bounty_id);

// 4. Normal operations now available
client.release_funds(&bounty_id, &contributor);

Security Considerations

Access Control

  • ✅ publish() restricted to admin only
  • ✅ Prevents unauthorized activation

State Validation

  • ✅ All operations check Draft status
  • ✅ Clear error differentiation (InvalidState vs FundsNotLocked)

Audit Trail

  • ✅ EscrowPublished events track all publications
  • ✅ Immutable on-chain records

Fund Safety

  • ✅ Funds secure in Draft state
  • ✅ Cannot be moved without explicit publish

Checklist

  • Code follows style guidelines
  • Self-review completed
  • Commented complex code sections
  • Updated documentation
  • Added comprehensive tests
  • Verified no test regressions
  • Considered security implications
  • Documented breaking changes
  • Program escrow complete (deferred to future PR)
  • Program escrow tests (deferred to future PR)

Breaking Changes

Impact Assessment

  • Low Risk: Changes are primarily additive
  • Existing Contracts: Unaffected (backward compatible)
  • New Contracts: Different initial state (Draft vs Locked)

Required Updates

  • Frontend: Handle Draft status in UI
  • Backend: Index Draft status and publish events
  • SDK: Add publish() function wrapper
  • Documentation: Update user guides

Known Limitations & Future Work

Program Escrow (Incomplete)

The following items are documented but not implemented for Program Escrow:

  • publish_program() function
  • Payout blocking for Draft programs
  • ProgramPublished event
  • Test suite

These will be addressed in a follow-up PR.

Potential Enhancements

  • Allow metadata editing in Draft state
  • Draft expiration mechanism
  • Multi-sig approval for publish
  • Draft cancellation flow

Reviewers

Please focus on:

  1. State transition logic correctness
  2. Security of publish() access control
  3. Completeness of Draft status checks
  4. Test coverage adequacy
  5. Event emission accuracy

Deployment Notes

Pre-Deployment

  • Run full test suite
  • Verify gas costs for publish() function
  • Test with production-like data

Post-Deployment

  • Monitor publish events
  • Track Draft → Locked transitions
  • Verify indexer updates
  • Update user documentation

Additional Context

This implementation addresses the need for a preparation phase before escrows become active, preventing accidental fund movements during setup. The Draft state provides:

  • A review period for admins
  • Protection against premature releases
  • Clear audit trail via publish events
  • Flexibility for complex program configurations

The implementation prioritizes safety and auditability while maintaining backward compatibility with existing deployments.
