Feature Specification

Function Signature

pub fn self_suspend_credit_line(env: Env, borrower: Address)

Authorization Model

Borrower-Only: Only the borrower can self-suspend their own line
No Admin Override: Admin cannot invoke this function on behalf of borrower
Explicit Auth: Uses borrower.require_auth() for strong authorization

State Machine

Valid Transition:
  Active → Suspended ✓

Invalid Transitions:
  Suspended → Suspended ✗ (not idempotent)
  Defaulted → Suspended ✗ (invalid state)
  Closed → Suspended ✗ (invalid state)

Post-Suspension Behavior

Operation	Allowed?	Notes
`draw_credit`	✗ No	Draws blocked while suspended
`repay_credit`	✓ Yes	Repayments always allowed
`self_suspend_credit_line`	✗ No	Not idempotent
`close_credit_line` (admin)	✓ Yes	Admin can force-close
`get_credit_line`	✓ Yes	View operations work

Implementation Files

1. Core Implementation

File: contracts/credit/src/lifecycle.rs

Added 60+ lines of well-documented code:

/// Allow a borrower to voluntarily suspend their own credit line.
///
/// This function enables borrowers to freeze their own line of credit 
/// without admin intervention. Only the borrower who owns the credit 
/// line can invoke this action.
///
/// # Parameters
/// - `borrower`: The borrower's address (must authorize this call).
///
/// # Authorization
/// - Requires authorization from the `borrower` address.
/// - Admin cannot invoke this function on behalf of a borrower.
///
/// # State Transitions
/// - Valid: `Active` → `Suspended`
/// - Invalid: Any other status will cause a panic.
///
/// # Post-Suspension Behavior
/// - Draw operations are blocked while the line is self-suspended.
/// - Repayment operations remain allowed.
/// - Admin can reinstate the line to Active status.
/// - Admin can force-close the line.
///
/// # Panics
/// - If no credit line exists for the given borrower.
/// - If the credit line status is not `Active`.
/// - If the caller is not the borrower (authorization failure).
///
/// # Events
/// Emits a `("credit", "selfsus")` [`CreditLineEvent`].
pub fn self_suspend_credit_line(env: Env, borrower: Address) {
    borrower.require_auth();
    
    let mut credit_line: CreditLineData = env
        .storage()
        .persistent()
        .get(&borrower)
        .expect("Credit line not found");
    
    credit_line = crate::accrual::apply_accrual(&env, credit_line);
    
    if credit_line.status != CreditStatus::Active {
        panic!("Only active credit lines can be self-suspended");
    }
    
    credit_line.status = CreditStatus::Suspended;
    env.storage().persistent().set(&borrower, &credit_line);
    
    publish_credit_line_event(
        &env,
        (symbol_short!("credit"), symbol_short!("selfsus")),
        CreditLineEvent {
            event_type: symbol_short!("selfsus"),
            borrower: borrower.clone(),
            status: CreditStatus::Suspended,
            credit_limit: credit_line.credit_limit,
            interest_rate_bps: credit_line.interest_rate_bps,
            risk_score: credit_line.risk_score,
        },
    );
}

2. Public API

File: contracts/credit/src/lib.rs

Exposed two functions:

    lifecycle::self_suspend_credit_line(env, borrower)
}

pub fn reinstate_credit_line(env: Env, borrower: Address) {
    lifecycle::reinstate_credit_line(env, borrower)
}

Security Analysis

Authorization Security

✅ Strong Authorization Model

Borrower-only access enforced via require_auth()
Admin cannot override borrower's self-suspension
Third parties completely blocked

✅ No Privilege Escalation

Function cannot be used to gain unauthorized access
Authorization checked before any state changes
Fails fast on authorization errors

State Machine Security

✅ Single Valid Transition

Only Active → Suspended allowed
All other transitions explicitly rejected
Clear error messages for invalid states

✅ No State Corruption

Interest accrued before status change
All credit parameters preserved
Atomic state updates

Data Integrity

✅ Parameter Preservation

Credit limit unchanged
Interest rate unchanged
Risk score unchanged
Utilization preserved

✅ Interest Accrual

Pending interest applied before suspension
No interest evasion possible
Consistent with other lifecycle functions

Integration Points

Compatible Features

✅ Interest accrual system
✅ Repayment processing
✅ Admin force-close
✅ Event emission system
✅ Credit line lifecycle management

Distinct from Existing Functions

Function	Invoker	Purpose
`suspend_credit_line`	Admin	Admin-initiated suspension
`self_suspend_credit_line`	Borrower	Borrower-initiated suspension
`close_credit_line`	Admin/Borrower	Permanent closure
`default_credit_line`	Admin	Mark as defaulted
