## Motivation `v5-next` was cut from `next` at cbc99df (Jun 1), so PRs merged to `merge-train/spartan` after the cut never flowed into it. This backports all of them (authored by @spalladino and @fcarreiro) to keep v5-next current with the spartan train. ## Approach Each PR is cherry-picked from its squashed merge commit on `merge-train/spartan`, in merge order, preserving the original commit message and PR number — one commit per backported PR. All 11 applied cleanly with no conflicts; patches are identical to the originals (verified via `git patch-id`), and `bootstrap.sh build yarn-project` passes on the result. Labeled `ci-no-squash` to preserve the per-PR commits. ## Backported PRs - #23768 — chore(p2p): use sync hash for tx validation hashing - #23719 — test(e2e): wait warmup slots in slashing tests - #23660 — feat(api)!: make getTxReceipt the single tx-lookup API - #23665 — refactor: remove non-pipelining sequencer code path - #23646 — feat(archiver): add getL2ToL1MembershipWitness node RPC - #23778 — fix(p2p)!: revamp BLOCK_TXS validations - #23786 — fix(p2p)!: fix BLOCK_TXS response under proposer equivocation - #23808 — chore: add empty vscode settings for yarn-project - #23807 — fix(sequencer): only warn about missing proposed checkpoint once overdue - #23776 — fix(sequencer): enforce build-frame deadlines and align attestation/publish windows - #23818 — chore(p2p): BlockTxsRequest comment Note #23660, #23778, and #23786 are breaking changes (node RPC + tx-effect db format, and p2p wire format respectively), as they were on `next`.

Attempt at deflaking slashing tests by keeping some warmup slots. Codex analysis below.
Cause
The duplicate proposal slash test was timing-fragile after proposer pipelining. In the failed CI run, the malicious shared-key validators were selected for the first slot of the target epoch immediately after the test started sequencers and warped time forward.
Because pipelining builds a proposal one slot ahead, selecting the first slot meant the malicious nodes had to start building at the exact warp boundary. They started late in the build sub-slot, serialized the duplicate proposals after the receiver nodes had already advanced to the next slot, and the receivers rejected the gossip as late (
invalid slot number) before duplicate-proposal detection could run.Failed run:
36837b7edc543e70Analysis
The failed run never produced a
DUPLICATE_PROPOSALoffense. It only produced aDUPLICATE_ATTESTATIONoffense, then timed out waiting for the expected proposal offense.Timeline from the failed run:
DUPLICATE_PROPOSALassertion timed outA passing run selected a later proposer slot instead. That gave the sequencers a full warmup slot after the warp, both malicious nodes built early enough, standalone duplicate proposals were broadcast in time, and
DUPLICATE_PROPOSALwas detected.Fix Rationale
Update
advanceToEpochBeforeProposerto skip the firstwarmupSlotsslots of the target epoch and return the concretetargetSlot. The duplicate proposal and duplicate attestation tests still warp to one slot before the target epoch, but now the selected malicious proposer slot is at least one slot into that epoch.That gives freshly-started sequencers one full slot of wall-clock warmup before the pipelined build for the malicious slot begins, avoiding the startup/warp boundary race where duplicate proposals are emitted too late and rejected before slash detection.
