Description
Summary
Add support for the latest environments in the CLI: add the new devnet preset, retire the removed summit / w3s environment, and keep the paseo naming unambiguous.
Background
The environment set changed. The summit environment was removed, and a new devnet preset was added. The reference for the exact values is contract-dependency-manager PR #61 (https://github.com/paritytech/contract-dependency-manager/pull/61).
Key facts from that change:
- devnet: the public products devnet on the Paseo testnet Asset Hub (para 1000, EVM chain id
420420417), wired to the community operatedContractRegistryat0x59b0245778917af55224e5f8fb55f7f8d452619f. It uses thedevnet-asset-hub/devnet-bulletindescriptors, the Bulletin RPCwss://bulletin-paseo.tservices.es:8443, andgetChainAPI("devnet"). In CDM,cdm install -n devnetandcdm deploy -n devnetresolve against it. - summit / w3s: removed upstream. This CLI currently carries a
w3spreset that maps to the summit descriptors and endpoints (summit_asset_hub/summit_bulletin), and there is a two-name split where product-sdk calls the networksummitwhile@parity/cdm-envand the CLI use the keyw3s. All of that needs to be retired once the summit removal bump lands. - paseo: the
paseopreset targets paseo-next (para 1500);normalizeChainNamealready accepts thepaseo-next-v2/paseo-v2aliases.
What needs to happen
- Add a devnet environment to the CLI so
dot/playgroundcommands can select it, resolving against the devnet registry and descriptors. - Retire the
w3s/ summit preset and thecdmEnvNamesplit once@parity/cdm-envdrops summit. Track the@parity/cdm-envbump this depends on. - Update
normalizeChainNameand any env registry so devnet is recognised and summit is gone. - Refresh the env related notes in
CLAUDE.md/docs-internalso the summit guidance is replaced with devnet.
Acceptance criteria
dot initplus an install and a deploy work against devnet end to end.- No summit / w3s path remains once the upstream removal lands.
- The paseo aliases still normalise correctly.
