fix(wallet): cap shielded spends at the state-transition size limit - #1020
Conversation
A shielded spend was planned against the 16-action consensus cap (max_shielded_transition_actions), but the 20 KiB max_state_transition_size binds first: the Halo 2 proof grows ~2,681 bytes per action, so a 7-action bundle is ~21,699 B and DAPI rejects it with "State Transition exceeds maximum size of 20480 bytes". Introduce ShieldedActionBudget (6 actions, the bound Rust already pins as MAX_ACTIONS_PER_BATCH) and plan and price every shielded route against it. The same 16-action assumption also made Max on shielded -> shielded reserve a full-size bundle's fee and hand the unspent difference back as a change note, so that route now plans against the real note set through sweepAvailability, like the withdraw and unshield routes already did. performShieldedTransfer was also the only shielded route that took no sweepAll flag and never re-priced the plan before signing, so a note spent or discovered between Max and confirm would submit a stale amount.
Both notices named the withdraw route: the remainder said "requires another Shielded withdrawal" and the unavailable case said "not ready to withdraw". They are shown for shielded -> shielded transfers and shielded -> Platform unshields as well, where neither word applies. Say what the constraint actually is — notes that do not fit in one transaction.
Capping the Max plan at the action budget only closed one of the two ways to pick an amount. A typed amount was still validated against shieldedBalance minus a flat reserve, which knows nothing about how many notes funding it would take — so any amount above the Max figure passed the screen, built its proof, and only then failed to broadcast with "State Transition exceeds maximum size of 20480 bytes". Carry the note-aware ceiling (the same number Max produces) as shieldedSpendCeilingCredits and check typed amounts against it, so the screen says what the real limit is instead of failing after the proof. The ceiling is unknown while the note set is reconciling; the check then falls back to the balance envelope rather than blocking every send.

One blocker: the note-aware typed-amount ceiling is applied only in SendViewModel. InternalTransferViewModel.canContinue still checks Shielded → Transparent/Platform amounts only against the total balance minus the fee reserve, while performWithdraw/performUnshield skip sweepAvailability when sweepAll is false. With 7+ small notes, a typed amount above the largest-six-note capacity can therefore still reach proof generation and reproduce the 20 KiB DAPI rejection this PR is meant to prevent. Please apply the same note-aware ceiling to Internal Transfer (with the validation message), or enforce it in the coordinator before authorization/signing.
The remainder and unavailable notices were reworded, but the three "still confirming" strings still said "Withdraw again once it settles". They are raised for shielded -> shielded transfers and shielded -> Platform unshields too, where withdrawing is not the action to repeat.
The note-aware ceiling was applied only in SendViewModel. Internal Transfer validated shielded -> Transparent/Platform amounts against the total balance minus the fee reserve alone, and performWithdraw/performUnshield consulted the note set only when sweeping. A typed amount above the largest-six-note capacity therefore still reached proof generation from that screen and reproduced the 20 KiB DAPI rejection. Enforce it in both places: - ShieldedTransferCoordinator gains spendCeilingCredits(feeKind:) and fails closed on every non-sweep withdraw, unshield and transfer before authorization and proof generation, so the guard also covers callers that never ran a UI check. - InternalTransferViewModel carries the same ceiling as the Send screen, so the limit is stated on the amount screen instead of surfacing as a failure after the proof. SendViewModel now reads the ceiling from the coordinator rather than computing its own copy.

Thanks — confirmed both halves of that and fixed them in c2ecd18. You were right that I took both remedies rather than one, since they cover different things: Coordinator (the backstop). New Internal Transfer (the message). Same

Both amount screens applied the flat reserve first and the note-aware ceiling second. The reserve always prices a full-size bundle, so it rejected amounts a one- or two-note spend can afford: with a single 1000-credit note, fee(2)=100 and fee(6)=500, the ceiling is 900 but the reserve check capped the amount at 500, reporting insufficient funds for a spendable 700. Use the ceiling as the authoritative bound whenever it is known, and keep the flat reserve only for the window where the note set is reconciling. An amount above the balance itself still reports insufficient funds rather than note fragmentation — the ceiling is always <= balance, so checking the ceiling alone would blame fragmentation for a plain shortfall.

Good catch — confirmed and fixed in d36cf91. The ordering was wrong: the flat reserve always prices a full-size bundle, so it rejected amounts a smaller spend can afford. With a single 1000-credit note, One deliberate difference from the proposed diff: since the ceiling is always

Sending from the Shielded balance failed or short-changed the user, in two related ways:
Broadcast rejected. A shielded spend was planned against the 16-action consensus cap (
max_shielded_transition_actions), but the 20 KiBmax_state_transition_sizebinds first — the Halo 2 proof grows ~2,681 bytes per action, so a 7-action bundle is ~21,699 B. A wallet fragmented across 7+ notes built its proof and only then failed with:Max left funds behind. On the shielded → shielded route, Max reserved a full-size bundle's fee via a flat
numActions: 16estimate instead of pricing the notes that actually enter the bundle. The unspent difference came back as a change note, so "Max" visibly did not send the balance.The 6-action bound is the one Rust already pins as

Previously only Max was capped; a typed amount above it passed the amount screen, built its proof, and failed at broadcast.performShieldedTransfernow takessweepAlland re-prices the plan before signing, matchingperformWithdraw/performUnshield. It was the only shielded route without that guard, so a note spent or discovered between Max and confirm would submit a stale amount.The ceiling is unknown while the note set is reconciling; the check then falls back to the balance envelope rather than blocking every send. That window is documented at the property.
How Has This Been Tested?
dashpaybuild:xcodebuild -workspace DashWallet.xcworkspace -scheme dashpay -sdk iphonesimulator ARCHS=arm64 build→ BUILD SUCCEEDED.testShieldedSweepStopsAtTheActionBudget; the two existingShieldedSweepPlannertests were re-checked against the new default and are unaffected. The unit-test target is broken repo-wide (pre-existing), so these are compile-verified but not executed.Breaking Changes
None. Two localized strings were reworded and one was added, so those keys need a Transifex pass.
