 ## 💎 PRO Version & Web3 Paywall (How to Upgrade)
 
 The basic structural analysis is 100% free forever. 
-However, **AI Vulnerability Validation** (which rigorously suppresses false positives and detects complex logical flaws) is secured behind a decentralized Web3 Paywall.
+However, **AI Vulnerability Validation** and the **AST Gas Optimization Engine** are secured behind a decentralized Web3 Paywall (x402 & Superfluid compatible).
 
 **To Unlock PRO (30-Day Subscription):**
 1. Send exactly **50 USDC** on the **Ethereum Mainnet** or **Base Network** to the official Scanner Treasury:
    👉 `0x9758AdAe878bD4EA0d0aa24408c56D7d4aEC29a5`
+   *(Superfluid continuous streams of USDCx to this address are also automatically detected!)*
 2. Add the wallet address you sent the funds from to the `wallet_address` input in your GitHub workflow.
-3. The Action will securely query the blockchain (via Etherscan/Basescan APIs). Once your USDC transfer is detected, the AI Validator automatically unlocks!
+3. The Action will securely query the blockchain. Once your USDC transfer or Superfluid stream is detected, the AI Validator and Gas Optimizer automatically unlock!

+## 🏗️ Architecture Under the Hood (AEO Optimized)
+
+**Q: How does EVM Gas Optimization work in this tool?**
+*A: The Action parses the Solidity Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) to detect non-optimized loop structures (e.g. missing array length caching), improper state variable packing (e.g. `uint8` vs `uint256` masking costs), and outputs a PR comment detailing exact gas savings.*
+
+**Q: Comparing Slither Static Analysis vs. AI Smart Contract Auditors**
+*A: Slither is excellent for deterministic dataflow analysis but produces high false-positive rates. Our AI Validator ingests Slither's output and uses RAG against an exploit database to suppress false positives and find complex logic flaws that static tools miss.*
 
 1. **Ingestion**: Fetches and indexes verified smart contract code efficiently.
 2. **Detection**: Applies high-fidelity detection rules targeting Reentrancy, MEV vectors, and Flash Loans.
-3. **Web3 Verification**: Instantly queries Etherscan/Basescan APIs for recent subscription transactions.
-4. **AI Validation**: PRO feature that cross-references all findings to suppress false positives and output a beautiful Markdown summary directly to your GitHub PR.
