Runbook: How to Rescue a Dead Token

This procedure outlines how a community member or an automated agent initiates a rescue operation.

1. Target Acquisition: Identify the CA (Contract Address) of the dead token. Verify on a block explorer that the Mint Authority is disabled (to prevent the original dev from minting infinite tokens).

2. Initialize Wrapper: Call the initialize_wrapper instruction on the CogniFi program. This creates the specific PDA vault for this asset and deploys the new wLA mint.

3. Community Signaling: The Agent (or user) must alert the community. Standard practice is to purchase a small amount of the dead token and burn it with a memo message containing the link to the new CogniFi pool.

4. Migration Event: Holders visit the CogniFi interface, connect their wallets, and approve the wrapping transaction.

Removing Liquidity from Abandoned Frontends

Many "dead" projects are simply cases where the website (project.com) has expired, but the funds are still in the Raydium liquidity pool. Users can still withdraw their funds by interacting directly with the blockchain.

Direct Contract Interaction (The "Emergency Eject"):

If you hold LP (Liquidity Provider) tokens for a dead pool:

1. Locate Pool ID: Find the AMM ID on SolanaFM or Solscan.

2. Construct Transaction: You do not need the original website. You can build a WithdrawLiquidity transaction using the CogniFi SDK.

3. Execute: Submit the transaction. The Raydium program will return your share of SOL and Tokens.

4. Recycle: Take the recovered Tokens and immediately wrap them into wLA to join the new, active economy.

Migrating to CogniFi AMM

Once a token is wrapped into wLA, it needs liquidity to trade.

1. Seed Phase: The Lazarus Protocol opens a bonding curve for the wLA token.

2. Deposit: Users deposit SOL into the curve to buy wLA.

3. Graduation: When the curve hits the target liquidity (e.g., 85 SOL), the funds are automatically migrated into a permanent CogniFi AMM pool.

4. Liquidity Lock: The LP tokens generated from this migration are burned instantly. This proves to the market that the liquidity is now "Forever Locked" and cannot be rug-pulled.
