Safer

[!WARNING] This repo is no longer maintained.

Safer is a tool that helps you sign & submit transactions to a Safe, without requiring any interaction with Safe's backend or frontend.

Safer is a set of Foundry scripts that can be used as fallback in case Safe App is down and the blockchain is the only thing that can be trusted.

Safer enables submitting complex transactions without the need of intermediaries.

Safer unlocks true DAO resilience.

Getting Started

• Install Foundry.
• Run make to initialize the repository.
• Create a .env file from the template .env.example file.
  • Set the environment variable SENDER to the address used to execute the transaction on the Safe. If you don't execute the tx, you don't need to set it.
  • Use the environment variable SAFE_NONCE to override a transaction's nonce. Remove it to use the default, latest Safe nonce. Leave it blank to use nonce 0.
  • Use the environment variable FOUNDRY_ETH_RPC_URL to customize the RPC endpoint used. This is useful to interact with a Safe deployed on another chain than Ethereum mainnet (the default one).

Build a Safe tx

• Run make tx and follow the steps to create a Safe transaction using create-safe-tx; OR
• Put the transaction's raw data in data/tx.json

Sign a Safe tx

1. To sign the data with a Ledger, run: make sign:ledger
2. Share the content of data/signatures.txt with the signer who will execute the transaction on the Safe

Batch signatures and execute transaction

1. Make sure at least threshold signatures are available in data/signatures.txt, each one per line
2. To execute the transaction on the Safe with a Ledger, run: make exec:ledger

Advanced options

Hardware Wallet support

With make sign & make exec, one can also use any other wallet provider available with cast:

• make cmd:interactive to input the private key to the command prompt
• make cmd:ledger to use a Ledger
• make cmd:trezor to use a Trezor
• make cmd:keystore to use a keystore
• make cmd:"private-key 0x..." if you really want to save your private key to your shell's history...

You can also append any cast parameter:

• make sign:"ledger --mnemonic 1 --mnemonic-index 1" or make exec:"ledger --mnemonics foo --mnemonic-indexes 1" to use another account than the default one at index 0
