Research direction

Start by locating the transaction confirmation and approval flows, then identify how current gas prices and the known market price are obtained. Clarify the threshold for “significantly over market” and the intended alert behavior before implementation. Done means affected confirmations consistently notify users when the agreed high-price condition is met.
