verify_contract

Verify smart contract source code on HashScan block explorer to ensure transparency and enable public auditability through direct upload or build artifacts.

Instructions

METHODS: Direct source upload, Hardhat build-info, Foundry artifacts RETURNS: Verification status and HashScan URL

USE FOR: Contract transparency, code verification, public auditability.

Implementation Reference

  • The primary handler function for the 'verify_contract' MCP tool. Handles input validation, file reading (single file/dir/Hardhat build-info/Foundry artifacts), calls HashScan verification service, and formats the ToolResult response.
    export async function verifyContract(args: { address: string; network: HederaNetwork; contractName: string; filePath: string; creatorTxHash?: string; buildInfoPath?: string; artifactPath?: string; }): Promise<ToolResult> { try { logger.info('Verifying contract on HashScan', { address: args.address, network: args.network, contractName: args.contractName, }); let result; // If buildInfoPath or artifactPath provided, use solc-json verification if (args.buildInfoPath) { // Hardhat build-info verification const buildInfo = await hashScanService.readHardhatBuildInfo(args.buildInfoPath); result = await hashScanService.verifyWithSolcJson( args.address, args.network, buildInfo.input, buildInfo.compilerVersion, args.contractName, args.creatorTxHash, ); } else if (args.artifactPath) { // Foundry artifact verification const artifact = await hashScanService.readFoundryArtifact(args.artifactPath); // Read source file const sourceCode = await fs.readFile(args.filePath, 'utf-8'); result = await hashScanService.verifyContract( args.address, args.network, { [`${args.contractName}.sol`]: sourceCode, 'metadata.json': artifact.metadata, }, args.creatorTxHash, args.contractName, ); } else { // Direct file verification - read source files from directory or single file const stats = await fs.stat(args.filePath); const files: Record<string, string> = {}; if (stats.isDirectory()) { // Read all .sol files from directory const entries = await fs.readdir(args.filePath, { withFileTypes: true }); for (const entry of entries) { if (entry.isFile() && entry.name.endsWith('.sol')) { const fullPath = path.join(args.filePath, entry.name); const content = await fs.readFile(fullPath, 'utf-8'); files[entry.name] = content; } } } else { // Single file const content = await fs.readFile(args.filePath, 'utf-8'); files[path.basename(args.filePath)] = content; } result = await hashScanService.verifyContract( args.address, args.network, files, args.creatorTxHash, args.contractName, ); } if (result.success) { const hashScanUrl = hashScanService.getContractUrl(args.address, args.network); return { success: true, data: { address: result.address, chainId: result.chainId, status: result.status, libraryMap: result.libraryMap, hashScanUrl, message: result.status === 'perfect' ? 'Contract verified successfully with perfect match' : 'Contract verified with partial match', }, metadata: { executedVia: 'hashscan', command: 'verify_contract', }, }; } else { return { success: false, error: result.message || 'Verification failed', metadata: { executedVia: 'hashscan', command: 'verify_contract', }, }; } } catch (error: any) { logger.error('Contract verification failed', { error: error.message }); return { success: false, error: error.message, metadata: { executedVia: 'hashscan', command: 'verify_contract', }, }; } }

  • Core helper function in HashScanService that performs the actual API verification request to HashScan's Sourcify endpoint.
    async verifyContract( address: string, network: HederaNetwork, files: Record<string, string>, creatorTxHash?: string, chosenContract?: string, ): Promise<VerificationResult> { try { const chainId = this.getChainId(network); logger.info('Verifying contract on HashScan', { address, network, chainId, fileCount: Object.keys(files).length, }); const response = await this.client.post('/verify', { address, chain: chainId, files, creatorTxHash, chosenContract, }); const result = response.data.result?.[0]; if (!result) { throw new Error('No verification result returned'); } logger.info('Contract verification successful', { address, status: result.status, chainId: result.chainId, }); return { success: true, address: result.address, chainId: result.chainId, status: result.status, libraryMap: result.libraryMap, }; } catch (error: any) { logger.error('Contract verification failed', { error: error.message, response: error.response?.data, }); return { success: false, address, chainId: this.getChainId(network), status: 'failed', message: error.response?.data?.error || error.message, }; } }
