Use when starting an audit, threat model, or architecture review on unfamiliar code, and before any vulnerability-hunting pass.\nallowed-tools: Task Read Grep Glob\n---\n\n# Audit Context Building\n\nBuild understanding, not verdicts. This runs before anyone hunts for bugs, and feeds that work.\n\n## When to Use\n\nAt the start of an audit, a threat model, or an architecture review, when the code is unfamiliar. Also when\nan earlier pass produced findings nobody could judge, because no one had mapped out how the system fits\ntogether.\n\n## When NOT to Use\n\nDo not name vulnerabilities, suggest fixes, write proofs-of-concept, or rate severity. Those belong to the\nhunting phase, which runs next and with the whole picture in hand. When the code counts on something and\nnothing checks it, record that plainly and move on — whether it matters is decided later.\n\nNot worth the tokens on code you already understand.\n\n## Do not analyze in this context\n\nThe analysis is long, and this context needs to survive to use it. Dispatch it:\n\n- **A codebase, or more than one function** — run `/audit-context-building:audit-context <path>`. It orients,\n  analyzes each function in its own subagent, and writes `audit-context/DOSSIER.md` plus one file per\n  function under `audit-context/functions/`. Only compact records return here.\n- **A single function** — dispatch the `audit-context-building:function-analyzer` agent at it. It writes its\n  prose to disk and returns a record.\n\nThen work from what comes back: the index, the unenforced assumptions, the open questions. Read a function's\nfile when you need its detail.\n\nThe workflow is what enforces this, not this text: a subagent bound to a return schema cannot return prose.\nTreat this section as routing, and route.\n\n## What comes back, and how to read it\n\nEach record lists what must always be true (with the line that shows it), what the function takes on faith\n(with whatever establishes it), which functions it calls and what it needs from each, and anything still\nunclear. The dossier adds the rules that span several functions, who can reach what, and where the\ncomplicated parts cluster.\n\nTwo things matter more than the rest:\n\n- **Assumptions marked `nothing found`.** The code counts on something being true and nothing anywhere makes\n  it true. This is the most useful thing to hand the hunting phase.\n- **The open questions.** An honest list of what is still unclear beats a confident answer that turns out to\n  be wrong. Carry them forward instead of closing them out.\n\nWhere two records disagree, both are quoted rather than quietly reconciled. That is a fact about the code,\nnot a flaw in the analysis.\n\n## The format\n\n[ANALYSIS_FORMAT.md](resources/ANALYSIS_FORMAT.md) defines it, and\n[FUNCTION_MICRO_ANALYSIS_EXAMPLE.md](resources/FUNCTION_MICRO_ANALYSIS_EXAMPLE.md) works through examples in\nC and Solidity. Read them when extending this plugin or deciding whether a record can be trusted.\n\nThe format is the same whatever the target. What changes is what fills each slot, and what counts as a call\nyou cannot see inside. [DOMAIN_NOTES.md](resources/DOMAIN_NOTES.md) maps that across smart contracts, C and\nC++, decompiled firmware, and web services — read it when the target is not plain source code.\n\n**The rule that matters most: follow the calls.** Whether a function is correct usually depends on something\nanother function does, and you cannot see that from the caller alone. A limit looks enforced because the\nvalue came back from a function whose name suggests it was checked. So read the function being called, follow\nevery path through it rather than only the one that succeeds, and say what makes each assumption true. When\nnothing does, use those words: `nothing found`. Every claim cites a line, or becomes an open question.\n","tagline":"Understand a codebase before looking for bugs in it - what each function assumes, what it guarantees, and what it depends on elsewhere.
