qorechain-rdk (Python)

Python Rollup Development Kit for the QoreChain network.

Status: Available. This package mirrors the TypeScript RDK (@qorechain/rdk) with idiomatic, type-hinted, snake_case Python — typed rollup configuration with the compatibility matrix enforced, preset profiles, the rollup and settlement-batch lifecycles, native data availability, transaction signing and broadcast, and the read clients.

Surface (mirrors the TypeScript RDK modules):

• Typed rollup configuration and builder, with the settlement / sequencer / proof / DA / gas / VM compatibility matrix validated client-side.
• The five preset profiles: defi, gaming, nft, enterprise, custom.
• Exact denom conversion and creation-cost economics (integer math, no float).
• Binary-Merkle withdrawal-proof assembly for the bridge.
• Portable rollup manifests (save / share / reload).
• Account derivation from a BIP-39 mnemonic (BIP-44 m/44'/118'/0'/0/0, secp256k1, bech32 qor) and a SIGN_MODE_DIRECT signer.
• Hand-encoded protobuf codecs for the eight rdk messages, a full transaction builder, and broadcast via the REST /cosmos/tx/v1beta1/txs endpoint.
• Read clients: REST (LCD), the qor_ JSON-RPC namespace, typed views, and the RdkClient facade — plus preflight ("doctor"), rollup health, event decoding, and a faucet helper. Live broadcast requires a reachable node endpoint; the HTTP transport is injectable for testing.

Mainnet PQC signing requirement. QoreChain mainnet requires the hybrid post-quantum signature extension (ML-DSA-87 + secp256k1) on native-lane transactions. The Python transaction path currently signs classical-only (SIGN_MODE_DIRECT, secp256k1), so native-lane broadcasts to mainnet will be rejected — use it on permissive networks (testnet, local devnets) or pair it with the qorechain-pqc bindings in a custom backend. The TypeScript RDK supports hybrid signing via @qorechain/sdk. Read paths, offline signing, and settlement-receipt verification are unaffected.

What's new in 0.4.0

• QCAI Rollup Copilot — get_rollup_advice aggregates a live fee estimate, network recommendations, fraud investigations, RL-agent status, and plain-language suggestions for a rollup (best-effort; unreachable advisory services degrade to warnings).
• Quantum-safe settlement receipts — build_settlement_receipt / verify_settlement_receipt: a portable receipt proving a settlement batch was anchored to the Main Chain under an ML-DSA-87 (Dilithium-5, FIPS-204) signature, verifiable fully offline. The ML-DSA-87 verification uses the qorechain-pqc library.
