state-invariant-detection

state-invariant-detection is a skill for Claude Code from quillai-network/quillshield_skills. It costs 93 tokens per session (1,968 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A smart-contract auditing method that checks whether related stored values continue to obey mathematical rules, such as total supply equaling all account balances.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect token, staking, vault, pool, treasury, and automated-market-maker contracts for broken supply, balance, conservation, or pricing relationships.
Why use it?
It can reveal accounting mismatches that may allow unauthorized token creation, broken token economics, or unsynchronized records.

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

state-invariant-detection 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 12d 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.

State Invariant Detection

Automatically infer mathematical relationships between state variables, then find functions that break those relationships. Catches the most devastating DeFi vulnerabilities: unauthorized minting, broken tokenomics, accounting discrepancies, and state desynchronization.

When to Use

  • Auditing token contracts for supply/balance mismatches
  • Analyzing staking, vault, or pool contracts for accounting errors
  • Detecting conservation law violations in treasury/fund management
  • Finding AMM/DEX constant product violations
  • Verifying that aggregate variables stay synchronized with individual records

When NOT to Use

  • Guard-state consistency analysis (use semantic-guard-analysis)
  • Full multi-dimensional audit (use behavioral-state-analysis)
  • Entry point identification only (use entry-point-analyzer)

Core Concept: State Variable Proportionality

Hypothesis: In well-designed contracts, state variables maintain mathematical relationships (invariants) that should never be violated.

When a function modifies one side of a relationship without updating the other, the invariant breaks — creating exploitable accounting errors.

Five Types of State Relationships

Type 1: Sum Relationships (Aggregation)

totalSupply = Σ balance[i] for all users i

Found in: ERC20 tokens, staking pools, vaults, share systems

Type 2: Difference Relationships (Conservation)

totalFunds = availableFunds + lockedFunds

Found in: Treasuries, liquidity pools, vesting contracts

Type 3: Ratio Relationships (Proportional)

k = reserveA × reserveB  (constant product)
sharePrice = totalAssets / totalShares

Found in: AMMs, DEXs, vault share pricing, collateralization

Type 4: Monotonic Relationships (Ordering)

newValue ≥ oldValue  (only increases)

Found in: Timestamps, nonces, accumulated rewards, total distributions

Type 5: Synchronization Relationships (Coupling)

If stateA changes, stateB must change correspondingly

Changes

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.

state-invariant-detection is a skill published in the GitHub repository quillai-network/quillshield_skills (121 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 1,968 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 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.
