Slither is a Solidity static analysis framework written in Python 3. It runs a suite of vulnerability detectors, prints visual information about contract details, and provides an API to easily write custom analyses. Slither enables developers to find vulnerabilities, enhance their code comprehension, and quickly prototype custom analyses.

### Detectors
Slither has more than 30 public detectors, including:
- `constable-states`: [State variables that could be declared constant](https://github.com/crytic/slither/wiki/Detector-Documentation#state-variables-that-could-be-declared-constant)
See the [Detectors Documentation](https://github.com/crytic/slither/wiki/Detector-Documentation) for the complete list.
