Stacy is an open-source static analyzer for Clarity smart contracts. It is intended to assist Clarity smart contract developers and auditors detect common security issues and deviations from best practices.
This tool will help developers write secure and more robust smart contracts.
pip install git+https://github.com/xlittlerag/tree-sitter-clarity@6eb27feb
pip install stacy-analyzerSeverities are based on worst case scenarios and the detector's finding may vary depending on the context.
| Detector ID | What it Detects | Test Cases | Severity |
|---|---|---|---|
| assert-block-height | Usage of block-height as time tracker. |
1 | Critical |
| call-inside-as-contract | Calling another contract losing the first contract's context. | 1 | Critical |
| divide-before-multiply | Performing a division operation before a multiplication, leading to loss of precision. | 1 | Critical |
| private-function-not-used | Dead code(private functions) inside the smart contract. | 1 | Enhancement |
| todo-comment | TODO comments left in the smart contract. | 1 | Enhancement |
| tx-sender-in-assert | Usage of tx-sender in assert is truly intended. | 1 | High |
| unwrap-panic-usage | Inappropriate usage of the unwrap-panic method, causing unexpected program crashes. |
1 | Enhancement |
| var-could-be-constant | Code that does not change and could be re-define. | 1 | Enhancement |
| updated-functions | Old functions. | 1 | Enhancement |
| unused-arguments | Arguments passed but not used. | 1 | Enhancement |
| unused-let-variables | Local variables declared but not used. | 1 | Enhancement |
You can find our contribution guidelines here
You can run Stacy over all the test contracts by running the following command:
stacy-analyzer lint testsIt will recursively search for all the .clar files in the tests directory and run Stacy over them. With this command, you won't need to specify the path to each smart contract.
This should print the errors in the vulnerable examples, and nothing in the remediated ones!
