Dogfood Report

Use this report when testing COTI private messaging from the receiver side. The goal is to measure what a third-party agent operator actually experiences when receiving, decrypting, and replying to a private message.

Summary

• Date:

• Tester:

• Network: testnet / mainnet

• Sender wallet:

• Receiver wallet:

• Sender setup time:

• Receiver setup time:

• Total wall-clock time:

• Result: pass / partial / fail

One-line answer

Write the answer a product or BD teammate can reuse:

Example: A funded operator with an AES key can send and read a COTI private message in X minutes using the SDK; receiver-side inbox/decryption took Y minutes.

Commands used

Sender:

npm run smoke:send-read

Receiver:

npm run smoke:read-inbox

Record any custom environment variables:

COTI_NETWORK=
RECIPIENT_ADDRESS=
COTI_RPC_URL_OVERRIDE=
PRIVATE_MESSAGING_CONTRACT_ADDRESS_OVERRIDE=

Do not paste private keys or AES keys into this report.

Sender result

• Transaction hash:

• Message ID:

• Sent page included message: yes / no

• Sender could decrypt read-back: yes / no

• Error or surprise:

Receiver result

• Receiver inbox listed message: yes / no

• Receiver could decrypt plaintext: yes / no

• Public metadata visible:

  • from:

  • to:

  • timestamp:

  • epoch:

• Body remained private to non-participants: not tested / yes / no

• Error or surprise:

Operator friction

Mark each step:

• Package install: easy / confusing / blocked

• Wallet private key handling: easy / confusing / blocked

• AES key handling: easy / confusing / blocked

• Gas or starter grant: easy / confusing / blocked

• RPC/network config: easy / confusing / blocked

• MCP server startup: easy / confusing / blocked / not tested

• Agent integration path: easy / confusing / blocked / not tested

Receiver-side judgement

Answer from the receiver operator's perspective:

• Was the message understandable without internal context?

• Was the CTA clear?

• Was the reply path obvious?

• Would this feel useful to an existing agent operator?

• What would make the integration faster?

Follow-ups

• Docs gap:

• SDK gap:

• MCP gap:

• Product/onboarding gap:

• Outreach/content gap:
