The Dispute Resolver (formerly “Resolve”) is a V1 tool that lets users create disputes in Kleros Court directly, without building a custom arbitrable contract. Users define the dispute question, options, and evidence, then submit it to Court for resolution. Evidence submission and appeal management happen through the Dispute Resolver interface.
In V2, the ability to create disputes directly is integrated into the Court interface.
Technical notes
- File uploads: evidence uploads go through Atlas to IPFS, with a SIWE info message at the upload step
- Evidence display: the interface fetches data from dynamic scripts for flexible evidence display, and normalizes PoH evidence payloads (including older submissions and non-object payloads)
- MetaEvidence: fetched via an API-based approach
- Realitio cases: ruling options display correctly for Realitio disputes
- Dispute creation: the create-dispute form validates inputs before submission
Supported networks
The Dispute Resolver can create and manage disputes only on chains where the Kleros V1 Court is deployed (a local arbitrator plus an Arbitrable Proxy):
The network selector also lists several other chains — including Polygon, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Base (and Base Sepolia), zkSync Era, Unichain, and Redstone — that come from a shared Kleros network configuration. These are cross-chain entries with no V1 Court and no Arbitrable Proxy deployed, so they appear in the list but creating a dispute on them does not work. Use one of the supported networks above.
