Clarinet
Clarinet is a Clarity runtime packaged as a command line tool, designed to facilitate smart contract understanding, development, testing and deployment. Clarinet consists of a Clarity Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop (REPL) environment and a testing harness. When used together, Clarity and the REPL environment enable you to rapidly develop and test a Clarity smart contract, allowing you to deploy the contract to a:
- devnet - a local standalone development environment that simulates Bitcoin, Stacks node and other helpful components, similar to a staging environment.
- testnet - a testing environment not running in production.
- mainnet - a production environment where you can deploy smart contracts.
Clarity is a decidable smart contract language that optimizes for predictability and security, meaning you can know with certainty, from the code itself, what the program will do. Smart contracts allow you to encode essential business logic on a blockchain.
Clarinet 101
Hiro has created an introductory video tutorial series that guides you through some of the fundamentals of Clarinet, and how it can help develop, test, and deploy Clarity smart contracts.
Please review and watch the YouTube playlist on Hiro's Youtube: channel for information on how to use Clarinet for smart contracts.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/downloaded/clarinet/binary
Install from source using Cargo
If you would like to install Clarinet from source using Cargo, there are some specific steps you will need to follow, which are described below.
Prerequisites
You must first Install Rust to use the Rust package manager Cargo.
If you are using Debian and Ubuntu-based distributions, make sure to run the following command to install required packages before building Clarinet.
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config libssl-dev curl
Build Clarinet
When you are ready to build Clarinet, you can build from source using Cargo with the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/hirosystems/clarinet.git
cd clarinet
cargo clarinet-install
By default, you will be in Hiro's development branch, develop
, with code that has not been released yet. If you plan on submitting any changes to the code, then this is the right branch for you.
If you want the latest stable version, switch to the main branch by entering the following command:
git checkout main
Getting started with Clarinet
The following sections describe how to create a new project in Clarinet and populate it with smart contracts. Clarinet also provides tools for interacting with your contracts in a REPL, and performing automated testing of contracts.
Setup shell completions
Clarinet has many different built-in commands, which are useful to enable tab-completion in your shell. You can use clarinet
to generate the shell completion scripts for many common shells using the command:
clarinet completions (bash|elvish|fish|powershell|zsh)
After generating the file, please refer to the documentation for your shell to determine where this file should be moved and what other steps may be necessary to enable tab-completion for clarinet
.
Create a new project
Once you have installed Clarinet, you can create a new project by entering the following command:
clarinet new my-project && cd my-project
Clarinet will create a project directory with the following directory layout:
.
โโโ Clarinet.toml
โโโ contracts
โโโ settings
โ โโโ Devnet.toml
โ โโโ Testnet.toml
โ โโโ Mainnet.toml
โโโ tests
The Clarinet.toml
file contains configuration for the smart contracts in your project. When you create contracts in
your project, Clarinet will add them to this file.
The settings/Devnet.toml
file contains configuration for accounts in the Clarinet console, including the seed
phrases and initial balances. Initial balances are in microSTX.
For a detailed video description on how you can create a new project, please see the Creating a New Project YouTube video.
Add a new contract
Clarinet can handle adding a new contract and its configuration to your project with the following command:
clarinet contract new bbtc
Clarinet will add 2 files to your project: the contract file in the contracts
directory, and the contract test file
in the tests
directory.
.
โโโ Clarinet.toml
โโโ contracts
โ โโโ bbtc.clar
โโโ settings
โ โโโ Devnet.toml
โ โโโ Mainnet.toml
โ โโโ Testnet.toml
โโโ tests
โโโ bbtc_test.ts
Clarinet will also add configuration to the Clarinet.toml
file for your contract.
[project.cache_location]
path = ".cache"
[contracts.bbtc]
path = "contracts/bbtc.clar"
You may add contracts to your project by adding the files manually; however, you must add the appropriate configuration
to Clarinet.toml
in order for Clarinet to recognize the contracts.
Check your contracts
Clarinet provides syntax and semantics checkers for Clarity, which enable you to check if the Clarity code in your project is valid by using the following command:
clarinet check
This command uses the Clarinet.toml
file to locate and analyze all of the contracts in the project. If the Clarity code is valid, the command will indicate success with the following message:
โ 2 contracts checked
The checker may also report warnings that indicate the code is valid; however, you should be aware of a specific condition that might arise. For example, the check-checker analysis discussed below will generate warnings. If there are errors in the code, the output of the command will indicate the kind and location of the errors.
You may also perform syntax-check on a single file by using the following command.
clarinet check <path/to/file.clar>
If there are no syntax errors, the output of the command will be a success message similar to the example below.
โ Syntax of contract successfully checked
Note Any syntactical errors in the Clarity code will be reported, but type-checking and other semantic checks will not be performed because Clarinet will only look at this one contract, since it does not have the full context to perform a complete check.
Static Analysis
Check-Checker
The check-checker is a static analysis pass you can use to help find potential vulnerabilities in your contracts. To enable this pass, add the following lines to your Clarinet.toml
file:
[repl.analysis]
passes = ["check_checker"]
The check-checker pass analyzes your contract to identify places where untrusted inputs might be used in a potentially dangerous way. Since public functions can be called by anyone, any arguments passed to these public functions should be considered untrusted. This analysis pass takes the opinion that all untrusted data must be checked before being used to modify the state on the blockchain. Modifying the state includes any operations that affect wallet balances, or any data stored in your contracts.
- Actions on Stacks wallets:
- stx-burn?
- stx-transfer?
- Actions on fungible tokens:
- ft-burn?
- ft-mint?
- ft-transfer?
- Actions on non-fungible tokens:
- nft-burn?
- nft-mint?
- nft-transfer?
- Actions on persisted data:
- Maps:
- map-delete
- map-insert
- map-set
- Variables:
- var-set
- Maps:
In addition to those operations, the check-checker is also a bit opinionated and prefers that untrusted data be checked near the source, making the code more readable and maintainable. For this reason, the check-checker also requires that arguments passed into private functions and return values must be checked.
- Calls to private functions
- Return values
Finally, another opportunity for exploits appears when contracts call functions from traits. Those traits are untrusted, just like other parameters to public functions, so they are also required to be checked.
- Dynamic contract calls (through traits)
When an untrusted input is used in one of these ways, you will see a warning like this:
bank:27:37: warning: use of potentially unchecked data
(as-contract (stx-transfer? (to-uint amount) tx-sender customer))
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
bank:21:36: note: source of untrusted input here
(define-public (withdrawal-unsafe (amount int))
In the case where an operation affects only the sender's own wallet (e.g. calling stx-transfer?
with the sender set to tx-sender
), then there is no need to generate a warning, because the untrusted input is only affecting the sender, who is the source of that input. To put it another way, the sender should be able to safely specify parameters in an operation that affects only themselves. This sender is also potentially protected by post-conditions.
For a more detailed description on how to use the Check-Checker, please see the Catch Smart Contract Vulnerabilities With Clarinetโs Check-Checker Feature YouTube video.
Options
The check-checker provides some options that can be specified in Clarinet.toml
to handle common usage scenarios that may reduce false positives from the analysis:
[repl.analysis.check_checker]
strict = false
trusted_sender = true
trusted_caller = true
callee_filter = true
If strict
is set to true, all other options are ignored and the analysis proceeds with the most strict interpretation of the rules.
The trusted_sender
and trusted_caller
options handle a common practice in smart contracts where there is a concept of a trusted transaction sender (or transaction caller), which is treated like an admin user. Once a check has been performed to validate the sender (or caller), then all inputs should be trusted.
In the example below, the asserts!
on line 3 is verifying the tx-sender
. Because of that check, all inputs are trusted (if the trusted_sender
option is enabled):
(define-public (take (amount int) (from principal))
(let ((balance (- (default-to 0 (get amount (map-get? accounts {holder: from}))) amount)))
(asserts! (is-eq tx-sender (var-get bank-owner)) err-unauthorized)
(map-set accounts {holder: from} {amount: balance})
(stx-transfer? (to-uint amount) (as-contract tx-sender) tx-sender)
)
)
The callee_filter
option loosens the restriction on passing untrusted data to private functions, and instead, allows checks in a called function to propagate up to the caller. This is helpful, because it allows you to define input checks in a function that can be reused.
In the example below, the private function validate
checks its parameter. The public function save
calls validate
, and when the callee_filter
option is enabled, that call to validate
will count as a check for the untrusted input, amount
, resulting in no warnings from the check-checker.
(define-public (save (amount uint))
(begin
(try! (validate amount))
(var-set saved amount)
(ok amount)
)
)
(define-private (validate (amount uint))
(let ((current (var-get saved)))
(asserts! (> amount current) err-too-low)
(asserts! (<= amount (* current u2)) err-too-high)
(ok amount)
)
)
Annotations
Sometimes, there is code that the check-checker analysis is unable to determine is safe; however, you know the code is safe. You want to pass this information to the check-checker to disable warnings that you consider to be false positives. To handle these cases, the check-checker supports several annotations, implemented using "magic comments" in the contract code.
#[allow(unchecked_params)]
This annotation tells the check-checker that the associated private function is allowed to receive unchecked arguments. It will not generate a warning for calls to this function that pass unchecked inputs. Inside the private function, the parameters are considered unchecked and could generate warnings.
;; #[allow(unchecked_params)]
(define-private (my-func (amount uint))
...
)
#[allow(unchecked_data)]
This annotation tells the check-checker that the following expression is allowed to use unchecked data without warnings. It should be used with care, since this will disable all warnings from the associated expression.
(define-public (dangerous (amount uint))
(let ((sender tx-sender))
;; #[allow(unchecked_data)]
(as-contract (stx-transfer? amount tx-sender sender))
)
)
#[filter(var1, var2)]
This annotation tells the check-checker to consider the specified variables to be checked by the following expression. This is useful for the case where your contract does some indirect check that validates that an input is safe, but there is no way for the analysis to recognize this. In place of the list of variable names in the annotation, an *
may be used to filter all inputs.
Note The command below is the safest and preferred way to silence warnings that you consider false positives.
(define-public (filter_one (amount uint))
(let ((sender tx-sender))
;; #[filter(amount)]
(asserts! (> block-height u1000) (err u400))
(as-contract (stx-transfer? amount tx-sender sender))
)
)
Execute a test suite
Clarinet provides a testing harness based on Deno that can enable you to create automated unit tests or pseudo-integration tests using Typescript.
clarinet test
For more information on how to create unit tests using Typescript, see the Writing Unit Tests Using Typescript YouTube video.
When you use the clarinet contract new foo
command to create a new contract, Clarinet will automatically create a unit test file for this new contract, tests/foo_test.ts
. Other files under the tests/_ directory
following the Deno test naming convention will also be included:
- named test.{ts, tsx, mts, js, mjs, jsx, cjs, cts},
- or ending with .test.{ts, tsx, mts, js, mjs, jsx, cjs, cts},
- or ending with _test.{ts, tsx, mts, js, mjs, jsx, cjs, cts}
Within these tests, you can simulate mining a block containing transactions using your contract, and then examine the results of those transactions as well as the events generated by them.
See the billboard example for sample unit tests.
Note: If you see an error in VS Code on the imports in the generated test file(s), that says, "An import path cannot end with a '.ts' extension" (an example is shown below), installing the Deno extension will resolve this error.
Measure and increase code coverage
To help maximize a smart contract's test coverage, Clarinet can produce a lcov
report, using the following option:
clarinet test --coverage
From there, you can use the lcov
tooling suite to produce HTML reports:
brew install lcov
genhtml --branch-coverage -o coverage coverage.lcov
open coverage/index.html
Cost optimizations
Clarinet can also be used to optimize costs. When executing a test suite, Clarinet will keep track of all the costs being computed when executing the contract-call
, and display the most expensive ones in a table:
clarinet test --cost
The --cost
option can be used in conjunction with --watch
and filters to maximize productivity, as illustrated here:
Load contracts in a console
The Clarinet console is an interactive Clarity REPL environment that runs in-memory. Any contracts in the current project will be automatically loaded into memory.
clarinet console
You can use the ::help
command in the console for a list of valid commands, which can control the state of the
REPL chain, and allow you advance the chain tip. Additionally, you can enter Clarity commands into the console and observe
the result of the command.
You can exit the console by pressing Ctrl + C
twice.
Changes to contracts are not loaded into the console while it is running. If you make any changes to your contracts you must exit the console and run it again.
Spawn a local Devnet
You can use Clarinet to deploy your contracts to your own local offline environment for testing and evaluation on a blockchain by using the following command:
clarinet integrate
Note Make sure you have a working installation of Docker running locally.
Interacting with contracts deployed on Mainnet
Composition and interactions between protocols and contracts are one of the key innovations in blockchains. Clarinet was designed to handle these types of interactions.
Before referring to contracts deployed on Mainnet, these contracts should be explicitly be listed as a requirement
in the manifest Clarinet.toml
, either manually:
[project]
name = "my-project"
[[project.requirements]]
contract_id = "SP2KAF9RF86PVX3NEE27DFV1CQX0T4WGR41X3S45C.bitcoin-whales"
or with the command:
clarinet requirements add SP2KAF9RF86PVX3NEE27DFV1CQX0T4WGR41X3S45C.bitcoin-whales
Clarinet will be able to resolve the contract-call?
statements invoking requirements present in your local contracts by downloading and caching a copy of these contracts and using them during the execution of your test suites. All of the different features are available in clarinet
.
When deploying your protocol to Devnet / Testnet, for the contracts involving requirements, the setting remap_requirements
in your deployment plans must be set.
As a step-by-step example, we use here the following contract, bitcoin-whales
If you examine this contract, you will see that there are 3 different dependencies: two from the same project (included in the same Clarinet.toml file), and one referring to a contract deployed outside of the current project.
Same Project
In the contract snippet shown below (line:260-265), there are dependencies on the contracts conversion and conversion-v2 which are included in the same Clarinet.toml
file.
(define-read-only (get-token-uri (token-id uint))
(if (< token-id u5001)
(ok (some (concat (concat (var-get ipfs-root) (unwrap-panic (contract-call? .conversion lookup token-id))) ".json")))
(ok (some (concat (concat (var-get ipfs-root) (unwrap-panic (contract-call? .conversion-v2 lookup (- token-id u5001)))) ".json")))
)
)
External Deployer
In this code snippet, there is a dependency on the nft-trait
(line:001) deployed by 'SP2PABAF9FTAJYNFZH93XENAJ8FVY99RRM50D2JG9
.
(impl-trait 'SP2PABAF9FTAJYNFZH93XENAJ8FVY99RRM50D2JG9.nft-trait.nft-trait)
- Dependencies from external contracts should be set in
[[project.requirements]]
[project]
name = "my-project"
[[project.requirements]]
contract_id = "SP2PABAF9FTAJYNFZH93XENAJ8FVY99RRM50D2JG9.nft-trait"
[project.cache_location]
path = ".cache"
[contracts.bitcoin-whales]
path = "contracts/bitcoin-whales.clar"
[contracts.conversion]
path = "contracts/conversion.clar"
[contracts.conversion-v2]
path = "contracts/conversion-v2.clar"
[repl.analysis]
passes = ["check_checker"]
[repl.analysis.check_checker]
strict = false
trusted_sender = false
trusted_caller = false
callee_filter = false
As a next step we can generate a deployment plan for this project. If you are running clarinet integrate
for the first time, this file should be created by Clarinet. In addition, you can run clarinet deployment generate --devnet
to create or overwrite the file.

path: "contracts\\bitcoin-whales.clar"
anchor-block-only: true
As the example above shows, Clarinet will remap the external contract to Hiro's Devnet address. In addition, it will also create a copy of the contract in the folder requirements
Deploy contracts to Devnet / Testnet / Mainnet
You can use Clarinet to publish your contracts to Devnet / Testnet / Mainnet environment for testing and evaluation on a blockchain.
The first step to deploy a contract is to generate a deployment plan, with the following command:
clarinet deployment generate --mainnet
After cautiously reviewing (and updating if needed) the generated plan, you can use the command to handle the deployments of your contract, according to your deployment plan:
clarinet deployment apply -p <path-to-plan.yaml>
Use Clarinet in your CI workflow as a GitHub Action
Clarinet may also be used in GitHub Actions as a step of your CI workflows.
You may set-up a simple workflow by adding the following steps in a file .github/workflows/github-actions-clarinet.yml
:
name: CI
on: [push]
jobs:
tests:
name: "Test contracts with Clarinet"
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: "Execute unit tests"
uses: docker://hirosystems/clarinet:latest
with:
args: test --coverage --manifest-path=./Clarinet.toml
- name: "Export code coverage"
uses: codecov/codecov-action@v1
with:
files: ./coverage.lcov
verbose: true
You may also add the steps above in your existing workflows. The generated code coverage output can then be used as is with GitHub Apps like https://codecov.io.
For more information on how you can use GitHub Actions with Clarinet, please see the A Simple CI With Clarinet and GitHub YouTube video
Extensions
Clarinet can easily be extended by community members: open source contributions to Clarinet are welcome, but you may also write your own Clarinet extensions if you want to integrate Clarity contracts with your own tooling and workflow.
Name | wallet access | disk write | disk read | Deployment | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
stacksjs-helper-generator | no | yes | no | https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/ext/stacksjs-helper-generator.ts | Facilitates contract integration by generating some typescript constants that can be used with stacks.js. Never hard code a stacks address again! |
How to use extensions
Extensions are run with the following syntax:
clarinet run --allow-write https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/ext/stacksjs-helper-generator.ts
An extension can be deployed as a standalone plugin on Deno, or may also be a local file if it includes sensitive / private setup informations.
As illustrated in the example above, permissions (wallet / disk read / disk write) are declared using command flags. If at runtime, the Clarinet extension is trying to write to disk, read disk, or access wallets without permission, the script will fail.
Debug your contracts
VS Code Debugger
Clarinet supports the Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP) which enables you to debug your smart contracts inside of VS Code, or any code editor that supports the DAP protocol.
To setup a debug session, you will first need to create a launch.json
file to tell VS Code what you want to debug. The easiest way to do this is to let VS Code generate the template for you by opening the "Run and Debug" view and clicking "create a launch.json file".
This will create the file .vscode/launch.json
with the default template:
{
// Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
// Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
// For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"type": "clarinet",
"request": "launch",
"name": "Call .foo.bar",
"manifest": "${workspaceFolder}/Clarinet.toml",
"expression": "(contract-call? .foo bar 42)"
}
]
}
Depending on your needs, you will want to set the name
field to whatever makes sense for your project, then set the expression
to the Clarity expression that you would like to debug. In the case of the default example shown in the template above, the debugger would start executing the bar
function of the foo
contract, passing the argument 42
. Once this file is configured, the debugger works as expected for any VS Code debugging.
Execution begins paused at the first expression. The debug toolbar includes buttons to continue, step over, step into, step out, restart, and stop, in that order.
Breakpoints can be set by clicking in the left gutter next to the code or using the right-click menu at a specific code location.
Data watchpoints may also be set, by clicking the + in the Watch section of the Debug side bar and typing the contract variable to watch in the format <principal>.<contract>.<name>
or using the shortcut for a local contract, .<contract>.<name>
. When a watchpoint is set on a contract variable, execution will pause when its value will change.
During execution, the values of the current contract's variables, the current function's arguments, and any local variables (i.e. from a let
expression) are shown in the side bar. The current watchpoints are also shown with their current values. In both cases, the contents of a map are not shown, but can be queried in the Debug Console. The call stack is also updated to show the call stack of the current execution.
At any point during execution, an expression can be evaluated in the current context via the Debug Console. Just type any valid Clarity expression and hit enter to evaluate it. Upon completion, the events emitted and the return value are printed to the debug console.
For more information on how you can use VS Code to debug smart contracts, please see the How to Debug Smart Contracts in Clarinetโs VS Code Extension YouTube video.
Command Line Debugger
Inside of the console (clarinet console
), there is a debugger for stepping through your contracts on the command line, including support for:
- Breakpoints
- Source: Break at a specific line (and optional column) of a contract (
break
orb
command)b SP466FNC0P7JWTNM2R9T199QRZN1MYEDTAR0KP27.miamicoin-token:28:4
- Function: Break at a specific function (
break
orb
command)b .crashpunks-v2.transfer
- Data: Break on read/write to a variable or map (
watch
orw
to break on write,rwatch
orrw
to break on read, andawatch
oraw
to break on read or write)w contracts/SP2KAF9RF86PVX3NEE27DFV1CQX0T4WGR41X3S45C.bitcoin-whales.payout
- Source: Break at a specific line (and optional column) of a contract (
- Step execution
- Step-in: Step into the sub-expressions (
step
ors
command) - Step-out: Complete execution of the current expression and return the result back to the parent (
finish
orf
command) - Step-over: Continue to completion of the current expression, stepping over sub-expressions (
next
orn
command) - Continue: Continue execution until hitting a breakpoint or completing execution (
continue
orc
command)
- Step-in: Step into the sub-expressions (
- Evaluate and print the result of any expression (
print
orp
command)
To initiate a debug session, first enter the REPL console using the following command:
clarinet console
Then, at the REPL prompt, enter this command to debug any expression:
::debug (contract-call? .foo hello .bar))
At the debug prompt, use any of the commands described above, or use help
to get the full help documentation.
For more information about how to debug a smart contract using the command line, please see the Debug Your Smart Contracts With Clarinetโs New Inline Debugger YouTube video.
Execution Trace
When you are in the console (clarinet console
), the ::trace <expr>
command enables you to execute an expression and print a trace of the execution, which can be very helpful for identifying problems with the contract.
This trace shows all function calls, both internal calls to private functions, and contract calls to other contracts. For each call, the parameters and return value are shown in the trace. Any events that are emitted are also shown in the trace.
Deploy with Hyperchains on Devnet
Clarinet can be used for facilitating experimentations with Hyperchains.
To begin working with subnets, in your Devnet.toml
, enable the following flag:
[devnet]
# ...
enable_subnet_node = true
This same file may also be used for customizing the subnet-node (miner, etc).
When running the command:
clarinet integrate
Clarinet will spin-up a subnet node. More documentation on how to use and interact with this incoming L2 can be found on the Hyperchain repository.
