build-program

build-program is a command for Claude Code from solanabr/solana-ai-kit. It costs 18 tokens per session (561 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A build checklist for Solana programs, which are applications running on the Solana blockchain, using Anchor or native Rust.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build and inspect Anchor or native Rust Solana programs, including verifiable builds, program IDs, and generated IDLs.
Why use it?
It helps identify the program type, build the deployable file, check its size and identifier, and verify generated interface files where applicable.

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

build-program 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 25d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 26 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Build the program(s) in this workspace ($ARGUMENTS: optional program name) so target/deploy/*.so, and for Anchor target/idl/*.json, are ready for tests and deploys. Toolchain errors not covered below: common-errors.md.

Steps

  1. Build:
    • Anchor: anchor build (-p <name> for one program). For a new, never-deployed program, run anchor keys sync after the first build and rebuild, so declare_id! and Anchor.toml match target/deploy/<name>-keypair.json. Skip it for a deployed program whose keypair is not in target/deploy/: it would rewrite declare_id! to a fresh address.
    • Pinocchio or native: cargo build-sbf.
    • Anything headed to mainnet: anchor build --verifiable. It needs Docker, writes target/verifiable/<name>.so, and is deployed with anchor deploy --verifiable. Non-Anchor programs use solana-verify build.
  2. Check the output: each .so and its size (deploy rent scales with it: solana rent <bytes>), the IDL for Anchor programs, and the program IDs (solana address -k target/deploy/<name>-keypair.json).
  3. cargo fmt --check and cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings.

Failure fixes

  • Platform-tools corrupted or half-downloaded: cargo build-sbf --force-tools-install.
  • feature edition2024 is required or "requires rustc 1.xx": cargo build-sbf uses the Rust/Cargo bundled in platform-tools, not your rustup toolchain. Pin the offending crate (cargo update -p <crate> --precise <older version>) or move to newer platform-tools (agave-install update, or --tools-version).
  • overflow-checks must be specified: set overflow-checks = true under [profile.release] in the workspace Cargo.toml. It also makes unchecked arithmetic panic instead of silently wrapping.
  • Binary too large: lto = "fat" and codegen-units = 1 in [profile.release]; opt-level = "s" or "z" trades CU for size; drop heavy dependencies.

Output

Programs built, .so sizes, program IDs, IDL status, fmt and clippy results.

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.
