Smart Contract Development (Solidity)

Contract Structure

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.20;

import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/Ownable.sol";

contract MyToken is ERC20, Ownable {
    constructor() ERC20("MyToken", "MTK") Ownable(msg.sender) {
        _mint(msg.sender, 1000000 * 10 ** decimals());
    }
}

Security Patterns

Checks-Effects-Interactions: Validate → update state → external calls
Reentrancy guard: Use OpenZeppelin ReentrancyGuard or nonReentrant
Access control: Ownable, AccessControl, or custom modifiers
Integer safety: Solidity 0.8+ has built-in overflow checks
Pull over push: Let users withdraw rather than sending funds

Common Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability	Prevention
Reentrancy	`nonReentrant` modifier, CEI pattern
Front-running	Commit-reveal schemes, flashbot protection
Oracle manipulation	Use Chainlink, TWAP over spot prices
Unchecked return values	Always check `transfer()` return or use `safeTransfer`
Delegatecall injection	Never delegatecall to user-supplied addresses

Development Tooling

Hardhat

npx hardhat init
npx hardhat compile
npx hardhat test
npx hardhat deploy --network sepolia

Foundry

forge init
forge build
forge test -vvv
forge script script/Deploy.s.sol --rpc-url $RPC --broadcast

Frontend Integration (ethers.js v6 / viem)

// viem (recommended for new projects)
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains'

const client = createPublicClient({ chain: mainnet, transport: http() })
const balance = await client.getBalance({ address: '0x...' })

// wagmi hooks (React)
import { useAccount, useBalance, useContractWrite } from 'wagmi'
const { address } = useAccount()
const { data: balance } = useBalance({ address })

DeFi Patterns

AMM: Constant product formula (x * y = k), concentrated liquidity
Lending: Overcollateralized loans, liquidation mechanisms, interest rate models
Staking: Reward distribution with rewardPerToken accumulator pattern
Governance: Token-weighted voting, timelock controllers, proposal lifecycle

Gas Optimization

Use calldata over memory for read-only params
Pack structs (smaller types together for slot efficiency)
Use unchecked blocks for safe arithmetic
Minimize storage reads/writes (cache in memory)
Use events instead of storage for data that doesn't need on-chain access

# Blockchain & Web3 Development

## Smart Contract Development (Solidity)

### Contract Structure
```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.20;

import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/Ownable.sol";

contract MyToken is ERC20, Ownable {
    constructor() ERC20("MyToken", "MTK") Ownable(msg.sender) {
        _mint(msg.sender, 1000000 * 10 ** decimals());
    }
}
```

### Security Patterns
- **Checks-Effects-Interactions:** Validate → update state → external calls
- **Reentrancy guard:** Use OpenZeppelin `ReentrancyGuard` or `nonReentrant`
- **Access control:** `Ownable`, `AccessControl`, or custom modifiers
- **Integer safety:** Solidity 0.8+ has built-in overflow checks
- **Pull over push:** Let users withdraw rather than sending funds

### Common Vulnerabilities
| Vulnerability | Prevention |
|--------------|------------|
| Reentrancy | `nonReentrant` modifier, CEI pattern |
| Front-running | Commit-reveal schemes, flashbot protection |
| Oracle manipulation | Use Chainlink, TWAP over spot prices |
| Unchecked return values | Always check `transfer()` return or use `safeTransfer` |
| Delegatecall injection | Never delegatecall to user-supplied addresses |

## Development Tooling

### Hardhat
```bash
npx hardhat init
npx hardhat compile
npx hardhat test
npx hardhat deploy --network sepolia
```

### Foundry
```bash
forge init
forge build
forge test -vvv
forge script script/Deploy.s.sol --rpc-url $RPC --broadcast
```

## Frontend Integration (ethers.js v6 / viem)

```typescript
// viem (recommended for new projects)
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'
import { mainnet } from 'viem/chains'

const client = createPublicClient({ chain: mainnet, transport: http() })
const balance = await client.getBalance({ address: '0x...' })

// wagmi hooks (React)
import { useAccount, useBalance, useContractWrite } from 'wagmi'
const { address } = useAccount()
const { data: balance } = useBalance({ address })
```

## DeFi Patterns
- **AMM:** Constant product formula (x * y = k), concentrated liquidity
- **Lending:** Overcollateralized loans, liquidation mechanisms, interest rate models
- **Staking:** Reward distribution with `rewardPerToken` accumulator pattern
- **Governance:** Token-weighted voting, timelock controllers, proposal lifecycle

## Gas Optimization
- Use `calldata` over `memory` for read-only params
- Pack structs (smaller types together for slot efficiency)
- Use `unchecked` blocks for safe arithmetic
- Minimize storage reads/writes (cache in memory)
- Use events instead of storage for data that doesn't need on-chain access

Review the source

Skill source recorded

Skill instructions are recorded. This is not a runtime test, safety guarantee or compatibility certification.

Review before install: Avoid automatic install

Dependency or permission surface needs review
Permission surface may require sandboxing
Financial research output is not financial advice; require human review before any live investment decision
Potential broker, wallet, exchange, or real-money execution surface; sandbox and explicit approval are required

Open full audit

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
