  "github_readme_excerpt": "# Caracal\n\nCaracal is a static analyzer tool over the SIERRA representation for Starknet smart contracts.\n\n## Features\n- Detectors to detect vulnerable Cairo code\n- Printers to report information\n- Taint analysis\n- Data flow analysis framework\n- Easy to run in Scarb projects\n\n## Installation\n\n### Precompiled binaries\nPrecompiled binaries are available on our [releases page](https://github.com/crytic/caracal/releases). If you are using Cairo compiler 1.x.x uses the binary v0.1.x otherwise if you are using the Cairo compiler 2.x.x uses v0.2.x.\n\n### Building from source\nYou need the Rust compiler and Cargo.\nBuilding from git:\n```bash\ncargo install --git https://github.com/crytic/caracal --profile release --force\n```\nBuilding from a local copy:\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/crytic/caracal\ncd caracal\ncargo install --path . --profile release --force\n```\n\n## Usage\nList detectors:\n```bash\ncaracal detectors\n```\nList printers:\n```bash\ncaracal printers\n```\n### Standalone\nTo use with a standalone cairo file and you have a local cairo compiler binary it\u0027s enough to point it to the file. Otherwise otherwise a bundled compiler is used and you need to pass the path to the [corelib](https://github.com/starkware-libs/cairo/tree/main/corelib) library either with the `--corelib` cli option or by setting the `CORELIB_PATH` environment variable.  \nRun detectors:\n```bash\ncaracal detect path/file/to/analyze\n```\n```bash\ncaracal detect path/file/to/analyze --corelib path/to/corelib/src\n```\nRun printers:\n```bash\ncaracal print path/file/to/analyze --printer printer_to_use --corelib path/to/corelib/src\n```\n### Cairo project\nIf you have a cairo project with multiple files and contracts you may need to specify which contracts with `--contract-path`. The local cairo compiler binary is used if available otherwise a bundled compiler is used. In the latter case you also need to specify the corelib as explained above for the standalone case. The path is the directory where `cairo_project.toml` ",
