Atlas Smart Contract Audit & DeFi Bounty Triage

A lightweight smart contract audit and DeFi security triage skill for Solidity/EVM protocols, bug bounty hunters, Code4rena wardens, Sherlock auditors, and HackenProof researchers.

Use this when you need a fast first-pass review of a DeFi protocol or smart contract scope before committing hours to a manual audit.

What It Produces

A structured markdown audit triage report with:

• Target overview

• Contract-by-contract checklist
• Recommended deep-dive order
• Quick-win review items

Workflow

Phase 1: Smart Contract Scope Mapping

For each contract in scope:

1. Identify protocol type: lending, AMM, vault, staking, bridge, oracle, governance, NFT, account abstraction
2. Identify external integrations: Chainlink, Uniswap, Curve, ERC20 tokens, bridges, routers, keepers
3. Flag proxy/upgrade patterns: EIP1967, UUPS, transparent proxy, beacon proxy, clones
4. Identify privileged roles: owner, admin, guardian, pauser, timelock, operator
5. Note novel or high-risk mechanisms: custom accounting, share pricing, liquidation math, rewards, TWAPs

Phase 2: DeFi Vulnerability Prioritization

Score each vulnerability class by likelihood × impact:

HIGH PRIORITY
- Reentrancy: external calls + state changes + callbacks
- Access control: missing modifiers, wrong role assumptions, admin bypass
- Oracle manipulation: stale price, TWAP manipulation, decimal mismatch, fallback oracle bugs
- Accounting bugs: share price drift, rounding loss, fee math, collateral/debt mismatch
- Liquidation bugs: bad health factor math, stale collateral values, griefable liquidation paths
- Upgradeability bugs: unprotected initializer, storage collision, implementation takeover

MEDIUM PRIORITY
- Fee-on-transfer / rebasing token edge cases
- ERC777 / callback-enabled token surprises
- Sandwich / MEV-sensitive pricing
- DOS via unbounded loops or griefable state
- Signature replay / permit domain separator issues

LOW PRIORITY BUT CHECK
- Input validation gaps
- Event/reporting mismatch
- Gas griefing
- Minor precision loss without exploitable value extraction

Phase 3: Contract-by-Contract Checklist

## Contract: \x3CName>

### External Calls / Reentrancy
- [ ] External calls happen after state updates?
- [ ] Reentrancy guard exists where callbacks are possible?
- [ ] ERC777 / ERC721 receiver / flash loan callbacks considered?

### Access Control
- [ ] Privileged functions use correct modifier?
- [ ] Timelock/owner/admin boundaries are clear?
- [ ] Emergency functions cannot steal user funds?

### Oracle / Pricing
- [ ] Oracle freshness checked?
- [ ] Decimal normalization correct?
- [ ] Fallback oracle cannot be manipulated?
- [ ] TWAP window long enough for protocol value at risk?

### Accounting
- [ ] Shares/assets conversion handles rounding direction correctly?
- [ ] Fee calculations cannot drain or brick accounting?
- [ ] Deposits/withdrawals preserve invariants?

### Upgradeability
- [ ] Initializers protected?
- [ ] Storage layout compatible?
- [ ] Implementation cannot be selfdestructed or hijacked?
