Archon's role as a Mantle-native ERC-8004 audit and gas intelligence agent.
What is Archon?
Archon is an AI-assisted audit and gas optimization product built for Mantle builders. It reads smart-contract source, produces review artifacts, records operational telemetry, and can attach verifiable proof records to important work.
Archon is not a replacement for a human security audit. It is a fast review layer for teams that need:
- early vulnerability discovery before a formal audit,
- Mantle-specific risk checks,
- gas optimization suggestions with measurable before/after evidence,
- a review history that can be verified later, and
- productized reports that non-auditor stakeholders can understand.
Core modules
| Module | Purpose | Current output |
|---|---|---|
| Audit | Security review of contracts and protocol flows | Findings, severity, exploit path, remediation guidance |
| Gas Optimizer | Mantle-aware optimization review | Detector hits, patches, gas reports, leaderboard entries |
| On-chain Proofs | Evidence that work happened | Proof hashes, transaction links when minted, registry metadata |
| Cost Guard | Spend and optimization telemetry | DB-backed reports and optimization aggregates |
What Archon optimizes for
Archon optimizes for traceable engineering decisions rather than flashy but unverifiable output. A report should make it clear what source was reviewed, which assumptions were used, which checks passed, which checks failed, and which parts require human confirmation.
