audit-depth-analysis

audit-depth-analysis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ccashwell/evm-cortex. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,620 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A focused method for investigating specific high-risk areas or findings in a smart-contract security audit. It traces state changes, token movements, cross-contract calls, edge cases, and economic incentives.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps analyze execution traces, verify invariants, follow assets across contracts, examine unusual inputs, and assess the financial effects of an attack.
Why use it?
It turns a possible issue into a detailed assessment of what can happen, under which conditions, and whether the result can be exploited or mitigated.

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

audit-depth-analysis 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.

Audit Depth Analysis

When to Use

Depth analysis is applied to specific leads identified during breadth scanning. Each lead gets focused attention from one or more depth analysis techniques.

Depth Analysis Techniques

1. State Trace Analysis

Trace state changes through a function to find inconsistencies:

## State Trace: Vault.withdraw()

### Entry State
- totalAssets: 1,000,000 USDC
- totalSupply: 900,000 shares
- user.shares: 100,000
- strategy.deployed: 800,000 USDC
- vault.idle: 200,000 USDC

### Execution Trace
1. shares = previewWithdraw(assets)           // shares = 90,000
2. _spendAllowance(owner, msg.sender, shares) // approval check
3. _burn(owner, shares)                       // totalSupply: 810,000
4. strategy.withdraw(assets - idle)           // ← EXTERNAL CALL
5. token.transfer(receiver, assets)           // ← EXTERNAL CALL

### Post State
- totalAssets: 900,000 USDC
- totalSupply: 810,000 shares

### Issues Found
- Step 4: External call to strategy BEFORE state is finalized
  - If strategy.withdraw() calls back into vault → reentrancy
  - Mitigation: ReentrancyGuard present ✓
- Step 3→4: _burn reduces totalSupply before strategy withdrawal
  - If strategy.withdraw() reads totalSupply → stale value
  - Impact: share price temporarily inflated during callback

2. Token Flow Tracing

Track every token movement to find value leaks:

## Token Flow: deposit() -> harvest() -> withdraw()

### deposit(100 USDC)
| From | To | Amount | Token |
|------|-----|--------|-------|
| User | Vault | 100 USDC | USDC |
| Vault | User | 100 shares | Vault Share |

### harvest()
| From | To | Amount | Token |
|------|-----|--------|-------|
| Aave | Strategy | 5 USDC (yield) | USDC |
| Strategy | Vault | 5 USDC | USDC |
| Vault | Treasury | 0.5 USDC (10% fee) | USDC |

### withdraw(all)
| From | To | Amount | Token |
|------|-----|--------|-------|
| User | Vault | 100 shares | Vault Share (burned) |
| Vault | User | 104.5 USDC | USDC |

### Accounting Check
In:  100 USDC (user) + 5 USDC (yield) = 105 USDC
Out: 104.5 USDC (user) + 0.5 USDC (treasury) = 105 USDC ✓

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.

audit-depth-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository ccashwell/evm-cortex (131 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 1,620 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
