Does this skill require manual input from the developer?

It automates the code analysis but includes an interactive phase to ask clarifying questions about processes not visible in the code, such as incident response or monitoring.

What framework does the Code Maturity Assessor use?

It uses the Building Secure Contracts - Code Maturity Evaluation framework (v0.1.0) developed by Trail of Bits, a leader in security research.

Is the output suitable for management reporting?

Yes, it generates a professional executive summary and a prioritized improvement roadmap with effort estimates, making it ideal for project stakeholders.

Can it detect vulnerabilities in non-blockchain code?

While many categories focus on smart contract patterns like MEV and decentralization, its analysis of complexity, documentation, and access control is valuable for any secure software project.

How long does a typical assessment take?

A thorough assessment usually takes between 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the codebase and the depth of the interactive session.

Security & Testing

Evaluates codebase security and architectural maturity using the Trail of Bits 9-category framework to generate evidence-based scorecards and improvement roadmaps.

About

The Code Maturity Assessor is a specialized security tool that performs systematic evaluations of a project's health based on the Trail of Bits maturity framework. By analyzing nine critical domains—including arithmetic safety, access controls, decentralization, and MEV risks—it provides developers with an objective scorecard and actionable recommendations. This skill is particularly useful for teams preparing for external audits or managing high-stakes deployments, ensuring that every aspect of the codebase meets rigorous industry standards for security and maintainability.

Key Features

Professional executive reports with priority-ordered improvement roadmaps
Detection of MEV risks, arithmetic vulnerabilities, and logic complexity
Comprehensive 9-category security and architecture framework
Evidence-based ratings with direct file and line references
Interactive discovery process to capture off-chain procedural context
938 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Pre-audit readiness assessments for smart contract deployments
Ongoing security posture monitoring during rapid development cycles
Evaluating third-party dependencies or legacy code for architectural weaknesses
