AI Agent Audit, a new open-source Rust tool, helps security auditors find vulnerabilities in Solidity smart contracts by integrating with large language models (AI systems that understand and generate text). The tool is designed to speed up expert manual review rather than replace it, and works with repositories that teams are comfortable sharing with external AI providers. It launched in public beta for auditors, researchers, and protocol development teams.

AI Agent Audit, a Rust command-line tool, launched in public beta to assist security review of Solidity smart contracts. It discovers vulnerabilities, deduplicates findings, generates proof-of-concept code for validated issues, and produces audit reports. The creator used it in Code4rena competitions with encouraging results.
Why it matters
The tool is designed to accelerate expert manual auditing rather than replace it—targeting smart contract auditors, security researchers, and protocol teams. It integrates with major AI providers (OpenAI/Codex by default, with support for Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek) and runs locally, meaning repositories are sent to third-party LLM providers you configure. This may help security teams move faster on Solidity codebases, a high-stakes domain where vulnerabilities can lead to financial loss.
What to watch
The tool is in public beta and not a hosted service; users must run it locally using Rust, Git, Slither, and Foundry or Node.js. The default audit pipeline uses ChatGPT/Codex and gpt-5.5 for active review. Code and documentation are publicly available, and the creator encourages security-conscious teams to audit before sharing their codebase with external model providers.
