Gas Optimization

Parallel Execution

Optimized for Monad's parallel EVM:

// Independent operations can execute in parallel
function batchSubmitObservations(
    Observation[] memory observations
) external {
    for (uint i = 0; i < observations.length; i++) {
        // Each observation is independent
        submitObservation(
            observations[i].agent,
            observations[i].observationType,
            observations[i].data,
            observations[i].confidence
        );
    }
}

Storage Optimization

Minimize storage reads/writes:

// Pack related data
struct PackedAgent {
    uint128 id;
    uint64 createdAt;
    uint32 phase;
    uint32 lastActive;
}

Event Optimization

Use indexed parameters for filtering:

event ObservationSubmitted(
    address indexed agent,
    string indexed observationType,
    uint8 confidence
);
