To prepare a smart contract codebase for a security audit, you need to define review goals, run static analysis tools like slither and CodeQL, increase test coverage, remove dead code, and generate comprehensive documentation.

Before a security review, you should run static analysis tools such as slither, dylint, golangci-lint, and CodeQL to identify vulnerabilities, detect dead code, and ensure your codebase meets pre-audit checklist requirements.

To structure documentation for a security audit, generate flowcharts, user stories, and glossaries. This ensures code accessibility and provides auditors with the necessary context to understand the codebase architecture and logic.

Yes, preparing code for a security audit requires improving test coverage. Analyzing and increasing test coverage ensures codebase readiness by verifying that existing logic behaves as expected before external security review.

The best way to remove dead code before a security review is to execute static analysis tools that automatically detect unused functions and variables. This streamlines the codebase and reduces the attack surface for auditors.

Yes, you can use this audit preparation process for other languages. The workflow supports running static analysis tools like golangci-lint for Go and CodeQL for multiple languages, ensuring broad codebase readiness beyond Solidity.
