The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit changes the format of a Bitcoin Core RPC command called getmempoolcluster so it groups transactions into 'chunks' rather than listing each transaction separately. It also adds a clearer error message when the requested transaction is not in the memory pool. The change is a user-facing output improvement, not a fix for a security vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required; treat as a normal API/output improvement. Reviewers may want to confirm the new chunk-grouping logic matches mempool's internal chunk feerate semantics and that the added null check covers all prior crash paths.

Security signals we found

01

New explicit null check on mempool entry before cluster lookup

02

Output schema change from per-transaction chunk metadata to per-chunk metadata

03

Added functional tests for missing mempool transaction error and chunk grouping
