 **Design Decision**: `poolBalance` is tracked in storage instead of calling `balanceOf()` before each loan.
 
-**Invariant**: `poolBalance` must always equal actual USDC balance.
+**Invariant**: `poolBalance` should equal actual USDC balance.
 
 **Maintained by**:
 - `deposit()`: poolBalance += amount
 - `withdraw()`: poolBalance -= amount
 - Flash loan: verified via `balanceOf() >= poolBalance` after callback
 - Reentrancy guard: prevents deposit/withdraw during callback
+- `sync()`: owner can call to set poolBalance = actual balance
 
-**Risk**: If someone sends USDC directly to contract (not via deposit), poolBalance will be less than actual balance. This is safe - it just means extra USDC is locked until owner withdraws.
+**Design Note - Direct Transfers**: The owner deposits USDC via `deposit()`, not by sending USDC directly to the contract. This design saves gas by avoiding an extra balance check. If someone accidentally sends USDC directly, the owner can call `sync()` to claim it. Any excess USDC (from direct transfers) may be extracted via flash loan before `sync()` is called - this is accepted behavior since direct transfers are not the intended deposit method.

+# Audit Responses
+
+This document tracks responses to audit findings that are either false positives, acknowledged design decisions, or out of scope.
+
+## AuditAgent Report - January 4, 2026 (Scan ID: 26)
+
+### False Positives / Scanner Misunderstandings
+
+**Finding #4: Unsafe Return Statement In Yul Block** - FALSE POSITIVE
+- The `return(0x00, 0x20)` statements in Yul are intentional and correct
+- They are used in deliberate branches with no intended fallthrough
+- This is standard Yul pattern for returning values from function selectors
+
+**Finding #12: Unused State Variable** - FALSE POSITIVE
+- The `locked` and `USDC` variables are declared for storage layout/ABI purposes
+- They are accessed via Yul assembly using slot numbers, not Solidity variable names
+- The scanner doesn't recognize Yul-based access patterns
+
+### Acknowledged Design Decisions
+
+**Finding #5: Non-Specific Solidity Pragma Version** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- Using `^0.8.20` is acceptable as Foundry pins the compiler version
+- Risk is mitigated by CI testing with specific compiler version
+
+**Finding #6: PUSH0 Opcode Compatibility Issue** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- Contract is deployed only on Ethereum mainnet which supports Shanghai
+- L2 deployment is not planned; if needed, would require recompilation
+
+**Finding #9: ERC-3156 non-compliance (callback return value)** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- Intentional gas optimization, documented in SECURITY.md
+- Balance check provides equivalent security guarantee
+- Documentation updated to clarify "ERC-3156 compatible (except callback return value verification)"
+
+**Finding #10: Permissionless deposit() has no depositor accounting** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- This is the intended design - deposits are effectively donations to the pool
+- Owner controls all withdrawals
+- Documented in README and SECURITY.md
+
+**Finding #11: High Function Complexity** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- The fallback() function handles multiple selectors in Yul for gas optimization
+- Complexity is inherent to the selector-dispatch pattern
+- Well-documented and tested
+
+**Finding #13/#14: Missing events for critical operations** - ACKNOWLEDGED (Issue #21 closed)
+- Events were intentionally omitted to save gas in the Yul implementation
+- This is a core design choice for the gas-optimized flash loan protocol
+- Flash loans DO emit a `FlashLoan` event; only admin functions omit events
+- Users can track deposits/withdrawals via USDC Transfer events
+
+**Finding #15: No mechanism to rescue non-USDC tokens** - ACKNOWLEDGED
+- Contract is USDC-only by design
+- Adding rescue function would increase attack surface
+- Users should not send non-USDC tokens to the contract
+
+**Finding #8: Missing ERC20 return value checks** - FUTURE VERSION (Issue #20 closed)
+- Valid concern for a future redeployment
+- Current contract relies on USDC reverting on transfer failure (current behavior)
+- Since contract is stateless (poolBalance can be re-synced via `sync()`), redeployment is low-friction
+- For next version: add `if iszero(mload(0x00)) { revert(0, 0) }` after ERC20 calls
+
+### Out of Scope (Example/Test Code)
+
+**Finding #1: TestBorrower arbitrary lender injection** - TRACKED AS ISSUE #19
+- Real vulnerability but in example/test contract, not production code
+- Created issue to harden the example for safety of integrators who may copy it
+
+**Finding #7: Unsafe ERC20 Operation Usage (TestBorrower)** - OUT OF SCOPE
+- TestBorrower is example code, not production
+- Would be fixed as part of Issue #19
+
+### Acknowledged Design Decisions (Additional)
+
+**Finding #2/#3: Excess USDC extraction via flash loan** - ACKNOWLEDGED (Issue #18 closed)
+- The owner deposits USDC via `deposit()`, not by sending USDC directly to the contract
+- This design saves gas by avoiding an extra balance check
+- In normal operation, there should never be excess USDC (actualBalance > poolBalance)
+- If someone accidentally sends USDC directly, the owner can call `sync()` to claim it
+- Any excess USDC may be extracted via flash loan before `sync()` is called - this is accepted behavior
