Move issues (01–29) and PRD from .scratch/distributed-inference-network/ into docs/issues/ and docs/. Update ralph_progress.py DEFAULT_PRD path and rewrite docs/agents/issue-tracker.md to reflect the new layout. The distributed_inference_network.egg-info/docs/ mirror is a build artifact already covered by *.egg-info/ in .gitignore — not committed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

06 — Solana stake + settlement contracts
What to build
Deploy and integrate the Solana smart contracts that make node staking, client payment, and token reward settlement trustless. All development and testing targets Solana testnet — never devnet or mainnet during development, to avoid real costs.
Three contracts are needed:
Registry contract: records stake balances, strike counts, and ban status per wallet. The gateway and tracker read from this contract to exclude banned wallets from route selection.
Payment contract: clients pre-fund an API key account with SOL or USDC. The gateway records per-request compute attribution (which node served which layer range, for how many tokens).
Settlement contract: called once per epoch. Debits client accounts proportional to compute consumed. Credits node operator wallets with our native token proportional to layers served. Distributes a validator reward share.
The packages/contracts package provides Python wrappers for reading and writing to all three contracts. The gateway uses these wrappers to check stake before routing to a node and to record attribution after each request.
Acceptance criteria
- All contracts deploy successfully to Solana testnet
- A node can submit a stake transaction and have its balance reflected in the registry contract
- A client can fund an API key account with testnet SOL
- After a completed inference session, compute attribution is recorded on-chain with correct node/layer attribution
- The epoch settlement transaction correctly distributes token rewards to node operators and deducts client balances
- The gateway refuses to route to a node whose stake balance is below the minimum threshold
- All contract interactions in tests run against a local Solana test validator (via
solana-test-validator) — no live testnet required for CI - A
.env.testnetconfig points to Solana testnet RPC for manual end-to-end testing
