Overview

Install op-validator

If you haven't already installed op-validator, follow the installation instructions.

Gather required information

You'll need the following information to validate your deployment:

• L1 RPC URL: A reliable RPC endpoint for your L1 network
• Absolute prestate: The absolute prestate hash of your deployment
• Proxy admin address: Your chain's proxy admin contract address (not the proxy admin owner)
• System config address: Your chain's SystemConfig contract address
• L2 chain ID: The chain ID of your L2 network

Use op-deployer to retrieve the following information:

  # Get deployment information
  op-deployer inspect l1 --workdir .deployer <l2-chain-id>

Run validation for your contract version

Run the op-validator with the appropriate version parameter matching your deployed contracts:

For op-contracts v1.8.0:

    ./bin/op-validator validate v1.8.0 \
    --l1-rpc-url "<YOUR_L1_RPC_URL>" \
    --absolute-prestate "<YOUR_ABSOLUTE_PRESTATE>" \
    --proxy-admin "<YOUR_PROXY_ADMIN_ADDRESS>" \
    --system-config "<YOUR_SYSTEM_CONFIG_ADDRESS>" \
    --l2-chain-id "<YOUR_L2_CHAIN_ID>" \
    --fail

For op-contracts v2.0.0:

  ./bin/op-validator validate v2.0.0 \
  --l1-rpc-url "<YOUR_L1_RPC_URL>" \
  --absolute-prestate "<YOUR_ABSOLUTE_PRESTATE>" \
  --proxy-admin "<YOUR_PROXY_ADMIN_ADDRESS>" \
  --system-config "<YOUR_SYSTEM_CONFIG_ADDRESS>" \
  --l2-chain-id "<YOUR_L2_CHAIN_ID>" \
  --fail

Review the validation results

The validator will check multiple aspects of your deployment against the standard configuration:

• Contract implementations and versions
• Proxy configurations
• System parameters
• Cross-component relationships
• Security settings

If validation passes, you'll see a success message. If there are issues, you'll see error codes with descriptions like:

Address any validation errors

If your deployment has validation errors:

1. Understand the errors - Review the error codes and descriptions.
2. Consider redeployment - For critical issues, redeploying with corrected parameters may be necessary.
