dimensional-analysis
An agent skill by trailofbits, from trailofbits/skills. Tags: analysis, blockchain, code-quality, math, security.
What it does
Annotates codebases with dimensional analysis comments documenting units, dimensions, and decimal scaling. Use when someone asks to annotate units in a codebase, perform a dimensional analysis, or find vulnerabilities in a DeFi protocol, offchain code, or other blockchain-related codebase with arithmetic. Prevents dimensional mismatches and catches formula bugs early.
Install
With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:
