Raven ScottandCursor 44b8a80907 Expand economy, autobase, network, observability, and scheduling modules.
Add auction withdraw/cancel, marketplace search helpers, update gossip history, autobase fork/lease/indexer/view APIs, link-probe and circuit-loom utilities, trace trees, pheromone ranking, and scheduling/measurement helpers with tests.

# API: hyper-p2p-auction-gossip
**Protocol:** `auction-gossip/v1`
**Export:** `{ HyperP2PAuctionGossip, PROTOCOL }`
## Overview
`HyperP2PAuctionGossip` maintains a peer-merged map of auctions. Each auction tracks an ordered bid list (highest first), lifecycle (`open``closed`), and optional metadata. Local mutations gossip over Hyperswarm via `../../_shared/p2p-bare.js` when `topic` is set.
Extends `bare-events` `EventEmitter`.
## Constructor
```js
const { HyperP2PAuctionGossip } = require('hyper-p2p-auction-gossip')
const auction = new HyperP2PAuctionGossip(opts)
```
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| `topic` | `string` \| `Buffer` | `null` | Hyperswarm topic; omit for local-only |
| `keyPair` | `KeyPair` | `hypercore-crypto.keyPair()` | Peer identity; `peerHex` derived from public key |
### Instance fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `peerHex` | `string` | Hex public key of this peer |
| `_auctions` | `Map` | `auctionId → auction` record |
## Lifecycle
### `async ready() → HyperP2PAuctionGossip`
Joins Hyperswarm when `topic` is set and swarm not already active. No-op if `topic` is null.
### `async close() → void`
Destroys swarm, clears auction map.
### `getStats() → object`
Returns `{ opened, bids, closed, gossipIn, gossipOut, auctions, open, protocol }`.
## Methods
### `openAuction(auctionId, meta = {}) → auction`
Creates an open auction and gossips `auction-open`.
- **Parameters:** `auctionId` (non-empty string), `meta` (object, stored on auction)
- **Returns:** auction object
- **Throws:**
- `Error: auction already open`
- `assertNonEmpty` on `auctionId`
**Auction shape:** `{ id, meta, status: 'open', bids: [], openedAt, openedBy: peerHex }`
### `placeBid(auctionId, amount, meta = {}) → bid`
Appends bid, re-sorts descending by `amount`, gossips `auction-bid`.
- **Parameters:** `amount` must be positive number
- **Returns:** `{ amount, bidder: peerHex, meta, at }`
- **Throws:**
- `Error: auction not open`
- `Error: amount must be a positive number`
### `closeAuction(auctionId) → auction | null`
Sets `status: 'closed'`, `winner` to highest bid (or `null`), gossips `auction-close`.
- **Returns:** closed auction or `null` if unknown id
### `getAuction(auctionId) → auction | null`
### `listOpen() → auction[]`
All auctions with `status === 'open'`.
### `listAuctionIds() → string[]`
### `highestBid(auctionId) → bid | null`
Top bid after sort, or `null` if none.
### `withdrawBid(auctionId, bidder = null) → number`
Removes all bids from `bidder` (defaults to `peerHex`). Returns count removed; gossips `auction-withdraw`.
### `cancelAuction(auctionId) → boolean`
Deletes an open auction locally and gossips `auction-cancel`.
## Events
| Event | When | Payload |
|-------|------|---------|
| `open` | Local `openAuction` | auction |
| `bid` | Local `placeBid` | `{ auctionId, bid }` |
| `close` | Local `closeAuction` | auction |
| `remote-open` | Gossip `auction-open` | auction |
| `remote-bid` | Gossip `auction-bid` | full gossip payload |
| `remote-close` | Gossip `auction-close` | auction |
## P2P wire (gossip JSON)
| type | fields | receiver behavior |
|------|--------|-------------------|
| `auction-open` | `auction` | `Map.set`; emit `remote-open` |
| `auction-bid` | `auctionId`, `bid` | append + sort if auction open; emit `remote-bid` |
| `auction-close` | `auctionId`, `winner`, `closedAt` | set closed; emit `remote-close` |
| `auction-withdraw` | `auctionId`, `bidder` | filter bids for bidder |
| `auction-cancel` | `auctionId` | delete auction |
Gossip is skipped until `ready()` has initialized `_peerMsgs`.
## Errors
See [`../../_shared/ERROR_CODES.md`](../../_shared/ERROR_CODES.md). Stable strings: `auction already open`, `auction not open`, `amount must be a positive number`.
## Testing
```bash
npm install && npm test
```
Example: [`../examples/basic.js`](../examples/basic.js).
Integration: [`../../../real_tests/integration/`](../../../real_tests/integration/) — auction-gossip two-node when present.
