FAQs & Troubleshooting

What does SynthFi actually do?

SynthFi turns natural language prompts into complete Solana smart contracts (using Anchor) and a working frontend DApp. You can review the contract, connect your wallet, and (soon) deploy directly to Solana Devnet through our Launchpad interface.

---

What kinds of contracts can I generate?

Currently supported:

• Token staking (APR or fixed)

• Time-locked vaults

• Token vesting (cliff + linear)

• Reward/claim systems

• Admin-only tools (e.g., pausing, emergency withdraw)

Coming soon:

• NFT-gated logic

• DAO-based permissions

• Token launch/airdrop flows

---

Is SynthFi only for developers?

No, SynthFi is built for both technical and non-technical users. If you're a developer, you can export and customize your code. If you're a founder or product lead, you can describe what you want and use the UI to preview and test.

🧠 AI / Code Questions

---

❓ How accurate is the code generated?

Most contracts follow Anchor best practices and compile out of the box. However, complex or ambiguous prompts may require edits. That’s why all code is fully transparent and editable.

---

Can I modify the contract after it’s generated?

Yes, you can copy and edit the code before deployment. Soon, you’ll be able to “remix” contracts inside SynthFi with prompt refinements or manual changes.

---

What programming language is used?

Solana programs are written in Rust using the Anchor framework. The frontend is in TypeScript + React (Next.js) with Tailwind styling.

---

Can SynthFi explain the generated code?

In most cases, yes, SynthFi includes inline comments and summaries. Function-by-function AI explanations are planned for upcoming versions.

---

Security & Risk

---

Can SynthFi detect rugs or honeypots?

Yes, all contracts sent to the Launchpad go through a risk scanning step, which checks for:

• Missing withdraw logic

• Admin-only functions with no time delay or control

• Unsafe close_account usage

• PDA or signer issues

Warnings are shown in the Launchpad UI.

---

Is it safe to deploy to Mainnet?

No, SynthFi is intended for Devnet and testing only right now. Do not deploy generated contracts to Mainnet unless you've reviewed and audited the code thoroughly.

---

⚙️ Deployment & Launchpad

---

an I deploy to Solana Devnet?

Yes, you can manually deploy with Anchor CLI, or use the Launchpad deploy button (currently in preview/simulation mode). One-click deploy is coming soon.

---

Why is my Deploy button disabled?

Your contract may have triggered a risk flag (e.g. rug/honeypot pattern), or your wallet isn’t connected. Resolve warnings or connect Phantom Wallet to proceed.

---

Do I need real SOL to deploy?

No, Solana Devnet uses test tokens. You can request free SOL from https://faucet.solana.com

---

Testing & Local Setup

---

Can I run SynthFi locally?

Yes, download the generated frontend and run:

bashCopyEditnpm install
npm run dev

Set your .env.local with:

envCopyEditNEXT_PUBLIC_PROGRAM_ID=your_program_id

---

My contract won’t build with Anchor — what should I do?

Make sure:

• Your Cargo.toml includes required dependencies

• All accounts used in instructions are declared in the #[derive(Accounts)] block

• PDA derivation uses consistent seeds and bump

• You have solana, anchor, and rustup properly installed

If issues persist, contact the SynthFi team or ask in Discord (coming soon).
