Which programming languages and tools are supported?

The skill supports Solidity (Slither), Rust (Dylint), Go (golangci-lint), and C++, and can also integrate with CodeQL and Semgrep checks.

When is the best time to use the Audit Prep Assistant?

It is ideally used 1 to 2 weeks before your scheduled security audit to ensure you have enough time to resolve minor findings and complete documentation.

Does this skill replace a human security auditor?

No, it is designed to handle the 'low-hanging fruit' and documentation, allowing human auditors to focus on complex logic and high-level architectural vulnerabilities.

What documentation does it help generate?

It helps create flowcharts, sequence diagrams, user stories, actor/privilege maps, function invariants, and domain-specific glossaries.

Can it help with failing builds during an audit?

Yes, it includes a specific step to verify build instructions on a fresh environment and freeze a stable version/branch for the audit team.

Seguridad y Pruebas

Prepares codebases for professional security reviews by automating static analysis, optimizing test coverage, and generating architectural documentation.

Audit Prep Assistant is a specialized capability developed by Trail of Bits to streamline the lead-up to a security audit. It guides developers through a structured four-step process: setting strategic review goals, resolving 'low-hanging fruit' via automated static analysis for languages like Solidity, Rust, and Go, increasing test coverage, and generating essential documentation such as flowcharts, user stories, and actor privilege maps. By ensuring build instructions are verified and code is clean before the auditors arrive, it maximizes the effectiveness of manual security reviews.

Características Principales
