# Trident

The first and only manually-guided fuzzing framework for Solana programs written in Rust, processing up to 12,000 tx/s.

Granted by the Solana Foundation, securing Kamino.

## Why Trident?

- Executes **thousands of transactions per second** to stress your program at Solana speed.  
- Models **state changes and flows** that unit tests miss.  
- Surfaces **edge cases, overflows, and missing constraints** early in development.  
- Built and maintained by **[Ackee Blockchain Security](https://ackee.xyz)**, trusted auditors of Lido, Safe, and Axelar.  
- Supported by the **Solana Foundation**.

## Features & benefits

- **Manually-guided fuzzer** – Define custom strategies to explore tricky code paths.  
- **Stateful fuzzing** – Inputs are generated based on critical account state changes.  
- **Anchor-like macros** – Write fuzz tests with familiar, clean syntax.  
- **TridentSVM client** – Execution using Anza’s Solana SVM API.  
- **Property-based testing** – Compare account states before and after execution.  
- **Flow-based sequence control** – Combine multiple instructions into realistic transaction patterns.  
- **Regression testing** – Compare fuzzing results between program versions.

## Quick start

Install via Cargo:

```shell
cargo install trident-cli
```

Write your first fuzz test:

```rust
#[init]
fn start(&mut self) {
  // Build Initialize Transaction
  let mut tx = InitializeTransaction::build(&mut self.trident, &mut self.fuzz_accounts);

// Execute Initialize Transaction
  self.trident
        .execute_transaction(&mut tx, Some("Initialize"));
}

#[flow]
fn flow1(&mut self) {
    // Build MoveEast Transaction
    let mut tx = MoveEastTransaction::build(&mut self.trident, &mut self.fuzz_accounts);

// Execute MoveEast Transaction
    self.trident.execute_transaction(&mut tx, Some("MoveEast"));
}
#[flow]
fn flow2(&mut self) {
    // Build MoveSouth Transaction
    let mut tx = MoveSouthTransaction::build(&mut self.trident, &mut self.fuzz_accounts);
    
    // Execute MoveSouth Transaction
    self.trident.execute_transaction(&mut tx, Some("MoveSouth"));
}
```

Run it:

```shell
trident fuzz run <fuzz_test>
```

For full examples and guides, see the [documentation](https://ackee.xyz/trident/docs/latest/trident-examples/trident-examples/).

## Installation

Latest release: **0.11.1**

```shell
cargo install trident-cli
```

## Use cases

- **Audit preparation** – Run fuzz campaigns before submitting your code for review.  
- **Continuous security** – Integrate Trident into CI for ongoing regression testing.  
- **Research & prototyping** – Generate complex attack sequences programmatically.
