Getting Started as a Searcher

To onboard as a searcher, you need the following modifications:

• Instead of listening for new checkpoints, listen to Shio Feed (refer to Connect to Shio Feed). When an opportunity transaction triggers an auction, relevant information will be broadcasted to the Feed, which is permissionless.

• Instead of submitting transaction to validators, submit Bid to Shio (refer to Submit Bid), to bid against being included at desired backrun position.

• In the PTB, add a MoveCall to Shio to pay exact your bid amount (refer to Interact with Shio Contract).

On success, the winning Bids will be included in the same checkpoint, and most of the times right next to the opportunity.
