What this adds

A new tokens/stop-loss-vault/ Anchor example: a per-owner vault that holds a single volatile SPL token (e.g. wSOL) and permissionlessly converts it to a single stable token (e.g. USDC) when a Switchboard On-Demand price feed reports a price at or below an owner-set threshold. The conversion runs from an offchain cranker — typically a TukTuk task — that calls convert_if_triggered on a schedule. The instruction reverts cheaply while the price is above the threshold and only swaps once it has actually dropped.

Architecture

• One PDA per owner at seeds [b"vault", owner.key().as_ref()]. The vault owns two associated token accounts (volatile + stable) and records the oracle feed pubkey, the threshold price (in the feed's native fixed-point scale), the suggested crank cadence, and the registered TukTuk task pubkey.
• One-shot lifecycle. A triggered flag flips false → true once a conversion fires, locking the pre-trigger actions (deposit, update_threshold, withdraw_volatile) so the post-trigger vault is simply a stable-token wallet drained via withdraw_stables.
• Permissionless conversion. convert_if_triggered reads the latest price, and only if it is at or below the stored threshold CPIs the swap aggregator's shared_accounts_route with the vault's entire volatile balance; the vault PDA signs the CPI for itself. In production the aggregator is Jupiter v6; in tests a mock-jupiter program with the same external instruction shape stands in.

Instructions

• initialize_vault(threshold_price, crank_interval_seconds, tuktuk_task) — owner creates the vault, its two ATAs, and records the threshold + scheduling hint.
• deposit(amount) — owner moves volatile tokens in. Refused once triggered.
• update_threshold(new_threshold_price?, new_crank_interval_seconds?) — owner trails the threshold and/or crank cadence. Both optional; refused once triggered.
• convert_if_triggered(switchboard_price_update_data) — permissionless. Swaps only when the price is at or below the threshold and fresh; otherwise reverts with PriceAboveThreshold or StalePrice.
• withdraw_stables(amount) — owner pulls stables out after a trigger.
• withdraw_volatile(amount) — owner pulls volatile tokens back out before a trigger. The escape hatch so a vault whose threshold is never reached doesn't lock the deposit forever.

Token handling & safety

• transfer_checked for every token move, so each CPI carries the mint + decimals and a wrong-mint/decimals account fails instead of silently miscalculating.
• anchor_spl::token_interface (InterfaceAccount, Interface<TokenInterface>) throughout, so the vault works against both the Classic Token Program and the Token Extensions Program.
• Oracle freshness is enforced: convert_if_triggered reads last_update_slot and rejects any price older than MAX_PRICE_STALENESS_SLOTS, failing closed if the feed stops updating.
• Owner-only mutations via has_one = owner + PDA seeds; the crank path is the only permissionless entry point and it cannot move funds anywhere except through the swap.

Why Switchboard On-Demand

On-Demand prices are pulled (not pushed) and verified onchain via Ed25519 signatures, so the price-update bytes travel as an instruction argument and the program trusts them only after verification. That fits a permissionless crank: the cranker pays for the update it wants the program to act on, and the program never trusts the cranker's identity. The teaching example uses a mock-switchboard program exposing the minimum fields the vault reads (price, scale, last-update slot) so tests can drive deterministic price scenarios; production swaps it for the switchboard-on-demand crate and PullFeedAccountData::parse_and_verify.

Why TukTuk

TukTuk is the maintained replacement for the dead Clockwork for scheduling onchain instruction handlers. The vault doesn't enforce the cadence onchain — it records crank_interval_seconds as a hint and stores the TukTuk task pubkey for discoverability. Anyone can crank; in normal operation TukTuk runs the schedule and pays for the price update.

Tests

8 Rust + LiteSVM scenarios under programs/stop-loss-vault/tests/:

• Alice initialises a $100-threshold vault and deposits 10 SOL.
• Three cranks ($180 → $150 → $80); the third fires and Alice withdraws $800 USDC.
• Carol cannot withdraw stables or volatile from a vault she doesn't own.
• Alice trails the threshold up to $200 after SOL rallies; the next crank fires at $180.
• A crank above threshold reverts cheaply and leaves the vault un-triggered.
• A flash crash between cranks is missed (documents the discrete-time limitation).
• A price that drops below threshold but goes stale is rejected (StalePrice).
• A never-triggered vault isn't a trap: the owner reclaims the deposit via withdraw_volatile.

Scope

• programs/stop-loss-vault/ — the vault program and its Rust + LiteSVM tests.
• programs/mock-jupiter/ — minimal mock with Jupiter v6's shared_accounts_route shape (deterministic price-multiply, checked math), tests only.
• programs/mock-switchboard/ — minimal mock feed (price / scale / last-update slot), tests only.
• tokens/stop-loss-vault/README.md — architecture, lifecycle, and limitations.

Limitations (documented in the README and exercised by tests)

• Flash-crash gap between cranks — a discrete-time stop-loss only sees the price at crank time; a crash-and-recover between cranks is missed. Tune crank_interval_seconds accordingly.
• MEV — the crank is permissionless and swaps at whatever route it supplies, so the swap is exposed to adversarial transaction ordering; production must pass a real quote + realistic slippage or route privately (e.g. a Jito bundle). The mock route uses slippage_bps = 0 / quoted_out_amount = 0 for simplicity.
• No partial-fill protection — the whole volatile balance is swapped in one instruction.
• mock-jupiter / mock-switchboard are test stand-ins, marked not-for-production, and the tuktuk_task registration is an honestly-labelled TODO (the owner pre-creates the task; the vault just records it).
