Explain my Code

Explain My Code helps users instantly understand any smart contract or Solana Anchor code they paste into the platform. Whether it's self-written or sourced elsewhere, this tool uses AI to break it down in plain, readable English.

---

Purpose

This feature is designed to:

• Demystify Anchor and Rust-based programs

• Help users understand contracts before launching, editing, or remixing them

• Support auditing, education, and debugging

---

How It Works

Users can find this tool in the Prompt Tools Sidebar (or via the standalone utility).

Flow:

1. Paste any valid Anchor (Rust) program into the input field

2. Click “Explain”

3. The AI will return:

   • A summary of the entire program

   • Explanation of key instructions

   • Descriptions of important accounts and logic

   • Highlight of any potentially unsafe logic or assumptions

---

Example Output

Input:

rustCopyEdit#[program]
pub mod my_staking_program {
    pub fn stake(ctx: Context<Stake>, amount: u64) -> Result<()> {
        // ...logic here
    }
}

Explanation: This Anchor program defines a Solana staking system. The stake function allows users to deposit a certain amount of tokens. It likely includes logic to lock funds, track staked balances, and update state accordingly.

UX/UI Details

• Available via:

  • The main navigation (Tools > Explain My Code)

  • Contextual prompts on the Prompt Generator sidebar

• Output is shown in a collapsible accordion structure:

  • Program Overview

  • Instruction-by-Instruction Breakdown

  • Account Struct Summaries

  • Optional: Detected Patterns or Vulnerabilities

---

Limitations

• Best results occur with complete and clean Anchor programs

• It does not currently execute static analysis or formal audits

• The AI explanation is meant to assist, not replace expert review

---

Ideal Use Cases

• Auditing third-party contracts before launch

• Learning how Anchor programs work

• Troubleshooting logic before deploying your own contract
