# Solidity Auditor > Security audit of Solidity code while you develop. Trigger on "audit", "check this contract", "review for security". Modes - default (full repo) or a specific filename. - Skill: `pashov/solidity-auditor` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 19 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds add pashov/solidity-auditor` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/pashov/solidity-auditor/raw - Safety review: pending - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: Security - Author: pashov (https://skillmd.com/u/pashov) - Updated: 2026-09-09 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/pashov/solidity-auditor --- # Smart Contract Security Audit You are the orchestrator of a parallelized smart contract security audit. ## Mode Selection **Exclude pattern:** skip directories `interfaces/`, `lib/`, `mocks/`, `test/` and files matching `*.t.sol`, `*Test*.sol` or `*Mock*.sol`. - **Default** (no arguments): scan all `.sol` files using the exclude pattern. Use Bash `find` (not Glob). - **`$filename ...`**: scan the specified file(s) only. **Flags:** - `--file-output` (off by default): also write the report to a markdown file (path per `{resolved_path}/report-formatting.md`). Never write a report file unless explicitly passed. ## Orchestration **Turn 1 — Discover.** Print the banner, then make these parallel tool calls in one message: a. Bash `find` for in-scope `.sol` files per mode selection b. Glob for `**/references/hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` — extract the `references/` directory (two levels up) as `{resolved_path}` c. ToolSearch `select:Agent` d. Read the local `VERSION` file from the same directory as this skill e. Bash `curl -sf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pashov/skills/main/solidity-auditor/VERSION` f. Bash `mktemp -d ./.audit-XXXXXX` → store as `{bundle_dir}` If the remote VERSION fetch succeeds and differs from local, print `⚠️ You are not using the latest version. Please upgrade for best security coverage. See https://github.com/pashov/skills`. If it fails, skip silently. **Turn 1b — Model selection (Claude Code only).** This turn applies ONLY when both `AskUserQuestion` and the `Agent` tool (with a `model` parameter) are available in your runtime — i.e., Claude Code. On Codex, Gemini, Cursor's native agent, or any runtime without these, SKIP this turn entirely, leave `{agent_model}` unset, and proceed to Turn 2. Do NOT emit the question as prose. Do NOT substitute any other mechanism. On Claude Code: 1. Read your system prompt to detect your own model **family** (Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku). Ignore the version digits — the Agent tool's `model` parameter takes the family name (`"opus"` / `"sonnet"` / `"haiku"`), and the runtime resolves to the latest version in that family. 2. Call `AskUserQuestion` with: - Question: `"Which Claude model should the 12 audit agents use?"` - Three single-select options. Mark the orchestrator's own family as `(Recommended)` and place it first. - On each option, set the `description` field to `latest`. - On each option, set the `preview` field verbatim (preserve all whitespace exactly — the box widths must stay equal across all three): Opus preview: ``` ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ opus · highest reasoning · most expensive │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` Sonnet preview: ``` ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ sonnet · balanced reasoning · mid cost │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` Haiku preview: ``` ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ haiku · lowest reasoning · cheapest │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` 3. Store the runner's choice as `{agent_model}`. If no answer, default to the orchestrator's own model. **Turn 2 — Prepare.** In one message, make parallel tool calls: (a) Read `{resolved_path}/report-formatting.md`, (b) Read `{resolved_path}/judging.md`. Then build all bundles in a single Bash command using `cat` (not shell variables or heredocs): 1. `{bundle_dir}/source.md` — ALL in-scope `.sol` files, each with a `### path` header and fenced code block. 2. Agent bundles = `source.md` + agent-specific files: | Bundle | Appended files (relative to `{resolved_path}`) | | --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `agent-1-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/math-precision-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-2-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/access-control-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-3-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/economic-security-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-4-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/execution-trace-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-5-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/invariant-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-6-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/periphery-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-7-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/first-principles-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-8-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/asymmetry-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-9-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/boundary-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-10-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/numerical-gap-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-11-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/trust-gap-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | | `agent-12-bundle.md` | `source.md` + `senior-auditor-sop.md` + `hacking-agents/flow-gap-agent.md` + `hacking-agents/shared-rules.md` | Each bundle = source.md + SOP + specialty + shared-rules. Agents read the bundle; no Read/Grep needed for the initial scan. Targeted Read/Grep allowed for cross-file investigation. Print line counts for every bundle and `source.md`. Do NOT inline source code into the Agent call prompt itself. **Turn 3a — Spawn all 12 agents.** In one message, spawn all 12 agents as **parallel BACKGROUND Agent calls** (`run_in_background=true`). If Turn 1b set `{agent_model}`, pass `model={agent_model}` on every Agent call. If `{agent_model}` is unset (Turn 1b skipped — Codex, Gemini, others), omit the `model` parameter entirely — do NOT substitute any default. The orchestrator will receive a notification when each agent completes — do NOT poll or sleep. Single phase, no later spawns. Proceed to Turn 3b only after all 12 have notified completion. Agents 1–9 use the **single-specialty prompt** (Turn 3a-i). Agents 10–12 use the **gap-hunter prompt** (Turn 3a-ii). **Turn 3a-i — Single-specialty prompt template (agents 1–9, substitute real values):** ``` You are an attacker. Your specialty, mindset, source, and output rules are in your bundle. Read it fully before producing findings. Read first: - {bundle_dir}/agent-N-bundle.md (XXXX lines) — source + SOP + specialty + shared rules. The bundle contains all in-scope source. Do NOT re-read in-scope files for the initial scan. Use Read/Grep only for cross-file searches or out-of-scope context (interfaces/, lib/, mocks/, test/). What a finding looks like: - file, function - root cause — the one-sentence code-level defect - minimal fix — the smallest change that eliminates the defect - proof — concrete numbers, a trace, or quoted code Without concrete proof, it's a LEAD, not a finding. Leads are honest about what you couldn't verify — they're not failures, they're calibration. Emit them. Don't skim. Don't trust your first read. Trust your discomfort. Output format: see shared-rules.md inside your bundle. ``` **Turn 3a-ii — Gap-hunter prompt template (agents 10–12, substitute real values):** ``` You are an attacker. Your gap-hunter specialty, mindset, source, and output rules are in your bundle. Read it fully before producing findings. Read first: - {bundle_dir}/agent-N-bundle.md (XXXX lines) — source + SOP + gap-hunter specialty + shared rules. The bundle contains all in-scope source. Do NOT re-read in-scope files for the initial scan. Use Read/Grep only for cross-file searches or out-of-scope context (interfaces/, lib/, mocks/, test/). What a finding looks like: - file, function - seam — which two or three lenses combine - root cause — the one-sentence code-level defect that lives at the seam - minimal fix — the smallest change that eliminates the defect - proof — concrete numbers, a trace, or quoted code showing the seam Without concrete proof of the seam, it's a LEAD, not a finding. Leads are honest about what you couldn't verify — they're not failures, they're calibration. Emit them. Don't skim. Don't trust your first read. Trust your discomfort. Output format: see shared-rules.md inside your bundle (gap-hunter-specific output fields are in your specialty file). ``` **Turn 3b — Wait for all 12 agents to complete.** Once every one of the 12 spawned agents has notified completion, proceed to Turn 4. Do NOT proceed to dedup until every agent has finished — let them run to natural completion. Do NOT poll or sleep; act only on completion notifications. **Turn 4 — Deduplicate, validate & output.** Single-pass: deduplicate all agent results, gate-evaluate, and produce the final report in one turn. Do NOT print an intermediate dedup list — go straight to the report. 1. **Dedup.** Parse every FINDING and LEAD from the 12 agents. Group by `group_key` (Contract | function | bug-class). Exact-match first; merge synonymous bug_class within same (Contract, function). Keep best per group, number sequentially, annotate `[agents: N]`. **MANDATORY — Wide-description (group_key).** Merged group with distinct mechanisms (different `fix:`, code-level cause, or attack path) MUST list every mechanism. No dropping. Same function can have multiple coexisting bugs at the same group_key — all MUST appear. **MANDATORY — Function-level second pass (after group_key dedup).** Run at (Contract, function), ignoring bug_class. Agents often label coexisting bugs with different bug_class tags but reference multiple mechanisms in the body. For every (Contract, function) with multiple final findings: scan body (description, path, proof, fix) of every constituent for distinct mechanisms across bug_class boundaries. Every mechanism in any constituent body MUST appear in ≥1 final finding. **MANDATORY — Function isolation (HARD).** NEVER merge across different `function:` fields. Dedup only within (Contract, function). Different function = different bug. Second pass above stays WITHIN (Contract, function), never across. **MANDATORY — Fix preservation (HARD GATE).** Before writing merged `fix:` on a multi-finding (Contract, function): 1. Collect every raw `fix:` from agents flagging the tuple. 2. Group by ADD-lines (`+` lines, or equivalent require/assignment). 3. Distinct if ADD-lines differ in: called function/expression (e.g., `require(msg.value == amount)` vs `require(zrc20 != _ETH_ADDRESS_)`), check direction (validate/restrict/ban), or checked parameter. 4. ≥2 distinct → present as Option A, B, … — one block per distinct fix, verbatim from agent text (no paraphrase). 5. Label intuitively: validate / restrict / allow-and-handle / ban-path. **Output format when 2+ distinct fixes exist:** ``` **Fix (Option A —
