# Instructions
Instructions are used to communicate with networks connected to Serai, and they
come in two forms:
- In Instructions are programmable specifications paired with incoming coins,
encoded into transactions on connected networks. Serai will parse included
instructions when it receives coins, executing the included specs.
- Out Instructions detail how to transfer coins, either to a Serai address or
an address native to the network of the coins in question.
A transaction containing an In Instruction and an Out Instruction (to a native
address) will receive coins to Serai and send coins from Serai, without
requiring directly performing any transactions on Serai itself.
All instructions are encoded under [Shorthand](#shorthand). Shorthand provides
frequent use cases to create minimal data representations on connected networks.
Instructions are interpreted according to their non-Serai network. Addresses
have no validation performed unless otherwise noted. If the processor is
instructed to act on invalid data, it will drop the entire instruction.
### Serialization
Instructions are SCALE encoded.
### In Instruction
InInstruction is an enum of:
- `Transfer`
- `Dex(Data)`
The specified target will be minted an appropriate amount of the respective
Serai token. If `Dex`, the encoded call will be executed.
### Refundable In Instruction
- `origin` (Option\<ExternalAddress>): Address, from the network of
origin, which sent coins in.
- `instruction` (InInstruction): The action to perform with the
incoming coins.
Networks may automatically provide `origin`. If they do, the instruction may
still provide `origin`, overriding the automatically provided value.
If the instruction fails, coins are scheduled to be returned to `origin`,
if provided.
### Out Instruction
- `address` (ExternalAddress): Address to transfer the coins included with
this instruction to.
- `data` (Option<Data>): Data to include when transferring coins.
No validation of external addresses/data is performed on-chain. If data is
specified for a chain not supporting data, it is silently dropped.
### Destination
Destination is an enum of SeraiAddress and OutInstruction.
### Shorthand
Shorthand is an enum which expands to an Refundable In Instruction.
##### Raw
Raw Shorthand contains a Refundable In Instruction directly. This is a verbose
fallback option for infrequent use cases not covered by Shorthand.
##### Swap
- `origin` (Option\<ExternalAddress>): Refundable In Instruction's `origin`.
- `coin` (Coin): Coin to swap funds for.
- `minimum` (Amount): Minimum amount of `coin` to receive.
- `out` (Destination): Final destination for funds.
which expands to:
```
RefundableInInstruction {
origin,
instruction: InInstruction::Dex(swap(Incoming Asset, coin, minimum, out)),
}
```
where `swap` is a function which:
1) Swaps the incoming funds for SRI.
2) Swaps the SRI for `coin`.
3) Checks the amount of `coin` received is greater than `minimum`.
4) Executes `out` with the amount of `coin` received.
##### Add Liquidity
- `origin` (Option\<ExternalAddress>): Refundable In Instruction's `origin`.
- `minimum` (Amount): Minimum amount of SRI tokens to swap
half for.
- `gas` (Amount): Amount of SRI to send to `address` to
cover gas in the future.
- `address` (Address): Account to send the created liquidity
tokens.
which expands to:
```
RefundableInInstruction {
origin,
instruction: InInstruction::Dex(
swap_and_add_liquidity(Incoming Asset, minimum, gas, address)
),
}
```
where `swap_and_add_liquidity` is a function which:
1) Swaps half of the incoming funds for SRI.
2) Checks the amount of SRI received is greater than `minimum`.
3) Calls `swap_and_add_liquidity` with the amount of SRI received - `gas`, and
a matching amount of the incoming coin.
4) Transfers any leftover funds to `address`.
