## What it is
Slither is a Python-based static analysis framework for Solidity and Vyper smart contracts. It runs vulnerability detectors, prints contract information, and offers an API for writing custom analyses.

## Use cases
- find vulnerabilities in solidity smart contracts
- detect reentrancy in ethereum contracts
- run static analysis on vyper contracts
- integrate smart contract security checks into CI
- write custom static analysis detectors for solidity
- audit smart contracts before deployment

## When to choose
- you develop or audit Solidity/Vyper smart contracts and want fast, low-false-positive vulnerability detection
- you need CI integration for smart contract security checks
- you want to prototype custom contract analyses via a Python API

## When to avoid
- you need dynamic analysis, fuzzing, or formal verification rather than static analysis
- your project targets non-EVM smart contract languages
