trace_replayTransaction - Hyperliquid RPC Method

Replays a transaction on Hyperliquid and returns the requested traces.

When to Use This Method

• Replay and trace a transaction execution - Get vmTrace, stateDiff, and trace in a single call for comprehensive analysis on Hyperliquid
• State diff extraction - See exact account balance, nonce, code, and storage changes caused by a transaction for perpetual futures trading, onchain order books, and institutional-grade derivatives
• VM trace debugging - Get opcode-level execution details alongside the structured call trace
• Comprehensive transaction analysis - Combine all three trace types in one request for complete execution visibility

Best Practices

• Returns more detailed trace data than debug_traceTransaction
• Combine vmTrace with trace array for a full picture of opcode and call-level execution
• Request all three trace types (trace, vmTrace, stateDiff) for maximum detail
• Requires archive node access; not available on standard full nodes
