Sphinx (formerly ChugSplash)

Sphinx is a DevOps platform for smart contract deployments. Sphinx is particularly great at coordinating multi-chain deployments.

Request access here.

Key Features

Here is the deployment process with the DevOps platform:

1. Define your project in a single declarative config file instead of writing deployment scripts. Sphinx has a Hardhat and Foundry plugin.
2. Propose your deployment gaslessly from a CI process or the command line.
3. Maintain a balance of USDC on a single chain to fund deployments. You don't need native gas tokens on any chain.
4. Approve your deployment with a single meta transaction signed by your project owners. You'll always sign a single meta transaction regardless of the number of chains or the size of the deployment.
5. Sphinx trustlessly executes your deployment on every chain and verifies your contracts on Etherscan. Your contracts will have consistent addresses across networks because Sphinx uses CREATE3 by default.
6. Generate deployment artifacts in the same format as hardhat-deploy.

Standalone CLI tool

You can also use Sphinx's Hardhat or Foundry plugin as a feature-limited deployment tool. With this CLI tool, you can define your deployments in a declarative config file and generate deployment artifacts in the same format as hardhat-deploy. Your contracts will be deployed using CREATE3. However, you won't be able to use any of the other features described above.
