The variable name 'multiplier' is misleading since it's used to calculate a large amount rather than as a multiplier. Consider renaming to 'amountFactor' or 'scaleFactor' for clarity.

evm/test/unit/fuzz/stake-weight/permanent/createPermanentLock.t.sol

+    function testFuzz_CreatePermanentLock_WeightCalculation(uint256 amount, uint256 durationIndex) public {
+        // Bound inputs
+        amount = bound(amount, 1e18, 10_000e18); // 1 to 10,000 tokens
+        durationIndex = durationIndex % 7; // Ensure it's always 0-6 using modulo


Using modulo for input validation in fuzz tests can mask edge cases. Consider using bound(durationIndex, 0, 6) instead for more predictable fuzzing behavior and better coverage of the valid duration range.

Suggested change

durationIndex = durationIndex % 7; // Ensure it's always 0-6 using modulo

durationIndex = bound(durationIndex, 0, 6); // Ensure it's always 0-6 using bound

+        permanentDurationIndex = permanentDurationIndex % 7; // Ensure it's always 0-6 using modulo


Consistent with the previous comment, using bound(permanentDurationIndex, 0, 6) would provide better fuzzing coverage and more predictable test behavior than modulo operation.

Suggested change

permanentDurationIndex = permanentDurationIndex % 7; // Ensure it's always 0-6 using modulo

permanentDurationIndex = bound(permanentDurationIndex, 0, 6); // Ensure it's always 0-6 using bound

[nitpick] Consider adding more detailed documentation for these ghost variables explaining their purpose in invariant testing and how they relate to the reward distribution validation.

Suggested change

bool isPermanent; // Ghost variable: track if lock is permanent

// Ghost variable: Indicates if the user's lock is permanent.

// Used exclusively in invariant testing to validate that reward distribution logic

Consider extracting these magic numbers into named constants (TOTAL_TOKEN_SUPPLY, ALLOCATION_COUNT, UNLOCK_PERIODS) to improve readability and maintainability of the test bounds.

This comment indicates a critical issue but the test name suggests it's intentionally testing this issue. Either fix the identified problem or clarify that this test validates the current behavior is working as intended after the redesign.

This large commented-out test should either be implemented if the functionality is critical, or removed to avoid code clutter. Consider creating a separate issue to track this test if it's needed for future validation.

+            // This properly handles both permanent and decaying locks
+            uint256 balanceOf = this.balanceOfAt(user, userWeekCursor);


Using external function call this.balanceOfAt() instead of internal function creates unnecessary overhead. Consider refactoring to use an internal version of this function for better gas efficiency.

Suggested change

uint256 balanceOf = this.balanceOfAt(user, userWeekCursor);

uint256 balanceOf = balanceOfAt(user, userWeekCursor);

+        uint256 amount = SafeCast.toUint256(lock.amount);
+        uint256 permanentWeight = Math.mulDiv(amount, duration, MAX_LOCK_CAP);


Consider extracting the permanent weight calculation into a separate internal function since this formula is used in multiple places (createPermanentLock, updatePermanentLock, etc.) to ensure consistency and reduce duplication.

+                && durationWeeks != 52 && durationWeeks != 78 && durationWeeks != 104
+        ) revert InvalidDuration(duration);


The duration validation logic is duplicated across multiple functions. Consider extracting this into a private _isValidDuration(uint256 duration) function to ensure consistency and reduce code duplication.
