Immutable version control for script edits stored and shared pinned on IPFS for playwrights and directors.

full primer →The primitive.
Every script editing artefact is pinned to IPFS through Pinata; directors get a permanent CID and a public gateway preview instead of a fragile cloud URL.
Why this primitivePinata's JWT upload guarantees tamper-proof, timestamped script versions accessible globally.
Kernel
a Pinata JWT upload that pins images / JSON / manifests to IPFS and returns a permanent CID
Drives the UI as
a 'pinned to IPFS' chip with the CID and an ipfs.io gateway preview

CONCEPT
Immutable version control for script edits stored and shared pinned on IPFS for playwrights and directors.
Discipline: Theater & Live Performance (script editing).
Onchain primitive: IPFS via Pinata. Why this primitive: Pinata's JWT upload guarantees tamper-proof, timestamped script versions accessible globally.
5-CREDIT BUDGET (HARD LIMIT):
- ONE single-page app. No router, no Lovable Cloud, no database, no auth flows beyond Privy drop-in.
- ONE Solidity contract, <=80 lines, deployed to Sepolia, verified on Etherscan.
- Privy is always the auth + sponsored-tx layer (Google login, embedded wallet).
- Pinata/IPFS only if the idea genuinely needs to store a file or metadata.
- At most ONE AI call per user action (use Lovable AI Gateway with LOVABLE_API_KEY if AI is part of the idea).
- Skip tests, skip CI, skip docs pages. Ship the demo, nothing else.
STACK
- React + Vite single page (the index route).
- SSR-safe Privy mount is mandatory. Never import @privy-io/react-auth at
module scope of a route file — it crashes SSR. Use
lazy(() => import('./privy-client-entry')) inside <ClientOnly> + <Suspense>,
and put <PrivyProvider> only inside privy-client-entry.tsx.
- PrivyProvider config (do NOT stub defaultChain as { id, name } — omit it
or pass viem's `sepolia`; chainId is passed per-call):
<PrivyProvider appId={import.meta.env.VITE_PRIVY_APP_ID}
config={{ loginMethods:['google','email'],
embeddedWallets:{ ethereum:{ createOnLogin:'users-without-wallets' } },
appearance:{ theme:'dark' } }}>
- Read the embedded wallet from useWallets, not user.wallet:
const embedded = wallets.find(w => w.walletClientType === 'privy');
- Every send goes through Privy `useSendTransaction` with BOTH `address`
and `sponsor`, wrapped in a 45s Promise.race timeout whose reject message
names the exact dashboard toggles:
await Promise.race([
sendTransaction(
{ to, data, chainId: 11155111 },
{ address: embedded.address, sponsor: true }
),
new Promise((_, r) => setTimeout(() => r(new Error(
"Privy sendTransaction timed out after 45s. Enable Gas sponsorship -> App pays -> Ethereum Sepolia -> Allow transactions from the client."
)), 45_000)),
]);
- Do NOT pass uiOptions:{ showWalletUIs:false } — it aborts with
"signal is aborted without reason". The approval sheet still shows on
the embedded-EOA path; the fee reads US$0.00.
- Do NOT add ZeroDev / SmartWalletsProvider / a paymaster URL. Native
Privy sponsorship on Sepolia works with the toggles above and nothing else.
- DASHBOARD PREREQUISITE (one-time): Privy dashboard -> Gas sponsorship
-> App pays -> add "Ethereum Sepolia" -> toggle "Allow transactions
from the client" ON. Without this, sendTransaction hangs silently.
- src/lib/pinata.ts uploads via `fetch('https://api.pinata.cloud/pinning/pinFileToIPFS', { method:'POST', headers:{ Authorization: `Bearer ${import.meta.env.VITE_PINATA_JWT}` }, body: fd })`.
- Hardhat in /contracts (kept outside the Vite bundle). Install
`@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox` AND `@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify@latest`
(>=3.x — older versions still hit Etherscan v1 and fail with
"You are using a deprecated V1 endpoint, switch to Etherscan API V2").
- hardhat.config.cjs MUST use the Etherscan v2 single-key shape (NOT the per-network map):
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox");
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify");
module.exports = {
solidity: { version: "0.8.24", settings: { optimizer: { enabled: true, runs: 200 } } },
networks: { sepolia: {
url: process.env.SEPOLIA_RPC_URL || "https://ethereum-sepolia-rpc.publicnode.com",
accounts: [process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY.startsWith("0x")
? process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY : "0x" + process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY],
chainId: 11155111,
} },
etherscan: { apiKey: process.env.ETHERSCAN_API_KEY }, // single string, NOT { sepolia: ... }
sourcify: { enabled: false }, // silences the v2.x prompt
};
- Deploy: `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.cjs --network sepolia`.
- Verify (run RIGHT AFTER deploy, no constructor args for these contracts):
`npx hardhat verify --network sepolia <address>`
On success Etherscan returns "Successfully verified contract … on the block explorer"
and the source becomes readable at
`https://sepolia.etherscan.io/address/<address>#code`.
- Write the deployed address to `src/data/contract.json` so the UI links to
`https://sepolia.etherscan.io/address/<address>`.

USER FLOW
1. Land on page -> 'Sign in with Google' (Privy) -> embedded wallet auto-provisioned.
2. On submit, pin the script editing artefact to Pinata, then call `log(cid)` on the contract via Privy sponsored tx. Render the CID, IPFS gateway preview, and Etherscan tx link.
3. Footer renders: "Built during the Creative AI & Quantum Hackathon organised by StreetKode Fam during Indian Krump Festival 14"
