Midnight Network Private Reserve Auction DApp

A private reserve auction contract lets a seller hide the reserve price on-chain while bidders place public bids with private identities. The winner crosses the privacy boundary when claiming the item via unshielded NIGHT payment.

Runnable template: Run npm install && npm run compact && npm run sync:assets && npm run dev after installing the 1AM wallet.

What this skill produces:

• contract/ — private-reserve-auction.compact (no witnesses, Map, Counter) + compile scripts
• app/auction/ — Next.js client UI (seller deploy/close/reveal/claim + bidder place bid/claim item)
• lib/midnight.ts — wallet session + patched indexer provider
• lib/auction.ts — deploy, bid, closeAuction, revealPrice, claimItem, claimProceeds, ledger decode
• lib/address.ts — Bech32 unshielded address → { bytes: Uint8Array } for UserAddress circuit args
• lib/secret.ts — generate/store 32-byte DApp secrets in localStorage
• public/zk/private-reserve-auction/ — ZK proving assets synced from contract build
