getScriptFromDescriptor throws Multipath before IsRange, both as -8, and Expand failure as -5 Cannot derive script without private keys. Those throws skip the address fallback. Co-authored-by: metaphorics <metaphorics@users.noreply.github.com>

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The generateblock behavior is updated for descriptor errors, but the public registry and RPC reference abbreviate the ranged-descriptor error message. This can mislead RPC consumers expecting the documented Core-compatible response; update the text before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

1. generateblock rules duplicated in registry 📘 Rule violation ⚙ Maintainability
The registry note fully restates API-28’s error codes, messages, and conditions instead of linking to the canonical contract. This creates a parallel textual representation that can drift from docs/contracts/external-api.md.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The `generateblock` registry note duplicates the normative API-28 descriptor-error rules, including codes and messages, rather than referring to their canonical contract.
## Issue Context
`docs/contracts/README.md` establishes contract pages as the authoritative source and directs consumer documentation not to copy complete behavioral descriptions. Keep the registry summary concise and link it to `docs/contracts/external-api.md#API-28`; the generated RPC reference will inherit that pointer.

2. Network mismatch masked by multipath 🐞 Bug ≡ Correctness
script_from_descriptor classifies a rust-miniscript-parsed multipath descriptor before checking whether its extended keys belong to the node network. For a mainnet node given a multipath tpub descriptor, this returns -8 Multipath descriptor not accepted, while Core fails key decoding and ultimately returns -5 Error: Invalid address or descriptor.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
Network validation currently occurs after multipath and ranged classification. Rust-miniscript accepts extended keys from either network, whereas Bitcoin Core rejects a wrong-network extended key while parsing; consequently a wrong-network multipath descriptor incorrectly bypasses address fallback and returns the multipath error.
## Issue Context
Move public and secret key network validation ahead of multipath/ranged checks after parsing. Add a regression test using a wrong-network multipath extended key and verify `generateblock` returns `CORE_NOT_FOUND` with `Error: Invalid address or descriptor`.

1. reject_hardened_xpub duplicates api-28 📘 Rule violation ⚙ Maintainability
The new comment restates API-28’s Core Expand failure behavior and exact error text without referencing the authoritative contract. This creates another textual representation that can drift from docs/contracts/external-api.md.
Agent Prompt
## Issue description
The `reject_hardened_xpub` comment duplicates the Core `Expand` failure rule and error text already defined by API-28.
## Issue Context
Keep the implementation-specific rust-miniscript panic explanation, but replace the duplicated contract behavior with a concise reference to `docs/contracts/external-api.md#API-28`.

Additional review context
- Bitcoin Core’s
src/rpc/mining.cppparses the descriptor, rejects multiple parsed descriptors first with-8 "Multipath descriptor not accepted", and only then checksIsRange()for the ranged-descriptor error. This confirms the PR’s required validation order and exact messages. - Context7 had no matching
rust-miniscriptdocumentation for the queried derivation/error behavior, so it provides no additional corroboration.

Document the complete ranged error message.
Line 144 replaces the Core message with an ellipsis. docs/rpc-reference.md repeats that abbreviated text. Use Ranged descriptor not accepted. Maybe pass through deriveaddresses first? so the generated reference matches the API-28 contract.
