A red HP rolls a boulder toward the low bar. This ball comes into contact with robot A inside of the outer works. Robot A then shoots the ball high.

G38 was not violated assuming the cycles are slow enough.
G39 was not violated since A was in contact with the carpet in the opponent opponent courtyard.
G40 was not violated since A did not cause the boulder to move from the neutral zone to the blue courtyard, but rather from the outer works to the blue courtyard.
G40-1 was not violated since the HP was transferring the ball to the outer works, not to the blue courtyard.
G41 was not violated since this was not a CROSSING considering that A came from the courtyard, not the neutral zone. Even if CROSSING were for some reason defined bi-directionally, A still did not cause any boulders to move from the neutral zone to the blue courtyard, but rather moved boulders from the outer works to the blue courtyard.

I think this is a likely a tech foul...

"G40-1A ROBOT may not hold a Low Bar flap open for the purpose of allowing a DRIVE TEAM member
to transfer BOULDERS into their opponent’s COURTYARD.
Violation: TECH FOUL per BOULDER"

Just because the spy robot is RiM "conduit" ..the action is to transfer into courtyard unless the robot makes the shot from that angle every time. Since a miss would transfer into courtyard.

So low probbility shot vs Tech Foul not sure many would take that risk
