# Smart Contract Template Generator
Generates secure Solidity smart contracts following OpenZeppelin standards and best practices.
## When to Use
- "Create an ERC-20 token"
- "Generate NFT contract"
- "Smart contract template"
- "Solidity contract with security"
- "Create DAO contract"
## Instructions
### 1. Determine Contract Type
Ask user which type:
- ERC-20 (Fungible Token)
- ERC-721 (NFT - Non-Fungible Token)
- ERC-1155 (Multi-Token)
- ERC-4626 (Tokenized Vault)
- Custom contract
### 2. Generate Contracts
## ERC-20 Token

## ERC-1155 Multi-Token
```solidity
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
pragma solidity ^0.8.20;
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC1155/ERC1155.sol";
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/Ownable.sol";
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC1155/extensions/ERC1155Pausable.sol";

contract MyMultiToken is ERC1155, Ownable, ERC1155Pausable, ERC1155Supply {

{}
function setURI(string memory newuri) public onlyOwner {
_setURI(newuri);

}

_unpause();
}
function mint(address account, uint256 id, uint256 amount, bytes memory data)
public
onlyOwner
{
_mint(account, id, amount, data);
}
function mintBatch(address to, uint256[] memory ids, uint256[] memory amounts, bytes memory data)
public
onlyOwner
{
_mintBatch(to, ids, amounts, data);
}
// Required overrides
function _update(address from, address to, uint256[] memory ids, uint256[] memory values)
internal
override(ERC1155, ERC1155Pausable, ERC1155Supply)
{
super._update(from, to, ids, values);
}
}
```
### 3. Security Patterns
**Reentrancy Protection:**
```solidity
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/security/ReentrancyGuard.sol";
contract SecureContract is ReentrancyGuard {
function withdraw() public nonReentrant {
uint amount = balances[msg.sender];
balances[msg.sender] = 0;
(bool success, ) = msg.sender.call{value: amount}("");
require(success, "Transfer failed");
}
}
```
**Access Control:**
```solidity
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/AccessControl.sol";
contract MyContract is AccessControl {
bytes32 public constant MINTER_ROLE = keccak256("MINTER_ROLE");
bytes32 public constant PAUSER_ROLE = keccak256("PAUSER_ROLE");
constructor() {
_grantRole(DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE, msg.sender);
_grantRole(MINTER_ROLE, msg.sender);
}
function mint(address to) public onlyRole(MINTER_ROLE) {
// Minting logic
}
}
```
**Pull Over Push:**
```solidity
// ❌ BAD: Push pattern (vulnerable)
function distribute() public {
for (uint i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++) {
recipients[i].transfer(amounts[i]);
}
}
// ✅ GOOD: Pull pattern (secure)
mapping(address => uint) public pendingWithdrawals;
function withdraw() public {
uint amount = pendingWithdrawals[msg.sender];
pendingWithdrawals[msg.sender] = 0;
payable(msg.sender).transfer(amount);
}
```
### 4. Gas Optimization
```solidity
// Use uint256 instead of smaller uints (saves gas)
uint256 public count; // ✅
// Cache array length
for (uint256 i = 0; i < array.length; i++) // ❌
uint256 length = array.length;
for (uint256 i = 0; i < length; i++) // ✅
// Use unchecked for gas savings (when safe)
unchecked {
counter++;
}
// Immutable for constants
uint256 public immutable MAX_SUPPLY;
```
### 5. Testing Setup
**Hardhat:**
```javascript
// test/MyToken.test.js
const { expect } = require("chai");
const { ethers } = require("hardhat");
describe("MyToken", function () {
let token;
let owner;
let addr1;
beforeEach(async function () {
[owner, addr1] = await ethers.getSigners();
const MyToken = await ethers.getContractFactory("MyToken");
token = await MyToken.deploy(owner.address);
});
it("Should assign total supply to owner", async function () {
const ownerBalance = await token.balanceOf(owner.address);
expect(await token.totalSupply()).to.equal(ownerBalance);
});
it("Should transfer tokens", async function () {
await token.transfer(addr1.address, 50);
expect(await token.balanceOf(addr1.address)).to.equal(50);
});
});
```
### 6. Deployment Script
```javascript
// scripts/deploy.js
const hre = require("hardhat");
async function main() {
const [deployer] = await hre.ethers.getSigners();
console.log("Deploying with account:", deployer.address);
const MyToken = await hre.ethers.getContractFactory("MyToken");
const token = await MyToken.deploy(deployer.address);
await token.waitForDeployment();
console.log("Token deployed to:", await token.getAddress());
// Verify on Etherscan
if (network.name !== "hardhat") {
await hre.run("verify:verify", {
address: await token.getAddress(),
constructorArguments: [deployer.address],
});
}
}
main().catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
process.exitCode = 1;
});
```
### 7. Configuration Files
**hardhat.config.js:**
```javascript
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox");
require("dotenv").config();
module.exports = {
solidity: {
version: "0.8.20",
settings: {
optimizer: {
enabled: true,
runs: 200,
},
},
},
networks: {
sepolia: {
url: process.env.SEPOLIA_RPC_URL,
accounts: [process.env.PRIVATE_KEY],
},
mainnet: {
url: process.env.MAINNET_RPC_URL,
accounts: [process.env.PRIVATE_KEY],
},
},
etherscan: {
apiKey: process.env.ETHERSCAN_API_KEY,
},
};
```
### 8. Best Practices
- Use latest Solidity version
- Import from OpenZeppelin
- Add comprehensive tests (>90% coverage)
- Use Slither for static analysis
- Get audited before mainnet
- Use multi-sig for ownership
- Implement pause mechanism
- Follow checks-effects-interactions pattern
- Document all functions with NatSpec
- Version control and CI/CD
### 9. Audit Checklist
- [ ] Reentrancy protection
- [ ] Integer overflow/underflow (use 0.8.0+)
- [ ] Access control properly implemented
- [ ] No unchecked external calls
- [ ] Gas limits considered
- [ ] Front-running mitigation
- [ ] Timestamp dependence avoided
- [ ] Randomness source secure
- [ ] Upgrade mechanism (if proxy)
- [ ] Emergency pause function
### 10. Documentation Template
```solidity
/**
* @title MyToken
* @dev Implementation of ERC-20 token with additional features
* @custom:security-contact [email protected]
*/
/**
* @notice Mints new tokens
* @dev Only callable by owner
* @param to Address to receive tokens
* @param amount Amount of tokens to mint
*/
function mint(address to, uint256 amount) public onlyOwner {
_mint(to, amount);
}
```

```
This skill generates secure, ready-to-use Solidity smart contract templates that follow OpenZeppelin standards and common security patterns. It supports ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, ERC-4626 and custom contract scaffolds with sensible defaults, access control, pause and minting features. Templates include testing and deployment snippets to accelerate development and safe launch.
Ask which contract type and any customization (name, symbol, max supply, mint price, roles, owner address). The skill outputs a commented Solidity contract using OpenZeppelin imports, plus optional security patterns like ReentrancyGuard, AccessControl, and pull-payment handling. It also returns recommended Hardhat tests, a deployment script, and a checklist for audits and gas optimizations.
Does the generated code include security protections?
Yes. Templates include common protections like ReentrancyGuard, access control roles, pause mechanisms, and recommendations for pull payments and checks-effects-interactions.
Will the code be deployment-ready for mainnet?
Templates are functional and include deployment scripts and Hardhat config, but you should run tests, static analysis, and a professional audit before deploying to mainnet.
