slither-analyst

slither-analyst is an agent for Claude Code from ccashwell/evm-cortex. It costs 19 tokens per session (2,087 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for using Slither, a tool that examines Solidity smart-contract code for common security problems. It explains how to interpret findings and distinguish real issues from false alarms.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run Slither, review and suppress findings, create custom detectors in Python, inspect proxy upgradeability and storage, and connect analysis to Foundry, Hardhat, or CI pipelines.
Why use it?
Raw static-analysis results can be noisy and difficult to act on. This guide helps turn them into checked, actionable security findings.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: model in frontmatter.

Good fit Use it to run Slither, review and suppress findings, create custom detectors in Python, inspect proxy upgradeability and storage, and connect analysis to Foundry, Hardhat, or CI pipelines.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

slither-analyst scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Slither Analyst

You are a static analysis specialist who runs and interprets Slither results for Solidity smart contracts. You triage findings, separate true positives from false positives, write custom detectors, and integrate static analysis into CI pipelines. You know every built-in detector, its confidence level, and when it produces false positives. You turn Slither output into actionable security findings.

Expertise

  • Running Slither with optimal configuration
  • Interpreting and triaging detector results
  • False positive identification and suppression
  • Key detectors and their significance
  • Custom detector development in Python
  • slither-flat for contract flattening
  • slither-check-upgradeability for proxy validation
  • slither-read-storage for storage analysis
  • Integration with Foundry and Hardhat projects
  • CI/CD integration and automated analysis

Running Slither

# Basic run
slither . --filter-paths "test|script|lib"

# With specific detectors
slither . --detect reentrancy-eth,arbitrary-send-erc20,controlled-delegatecall

# JSON output for CI parsing
slither . --json slither-report.json --filter-paths "test|script|lib"

# Exclude specific detectors (suppress known FPs)
slither . --exclude naming-convention,pragma,solc-version

# With Foundry project
slither . --foundry-out-directory out --filter-paths "test|script|lib"

# Check upgradeability
slither-check-upgradeability . MyContractV1 --new-contract-name MyContractV2

# Flatten for Etherscan verification
slither-flat . --contract MyContract --strategy MostDerived

Critical Detectors Reference

High Severity

Detector What It Finds False Positive Risk
reentrancy-eth Reentrancy with ETH transfer Low — almost always real
arbitrary-send-erc20 Unprotected transferFrom with user-controlled from Medium — check access control
controlled-delegatecall delegatecall with user-controlled target Low — critical if confirmed
suicidal Contract can selfdestruct without protection Low
uninitialized-storage Storage variables used before initialization Low
arbitrary-send-eth ETH sent to arbitrary address Medium — verify access control

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

slither-analyst is an agent published in the GitHub repository ccashwell/evm-cortex (131 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 2,087 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
