In Decentralized Finance (DeFi), it is widely recognized that composability introduces significant security risks. DeFi has a long history of hacks, ranging from oracle misconfigurations to sophisticated flash loan and price manipulation attacks. Many of these vulnerabilities stem from challenges in securely integrating multiple protocols. This work proposes that clear security guidelines provided by integration-friendly protocols—such as oracles, decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and lending platforms—and strict adherence to these guidelines by the integrating protocols can substantially mitigate the risk of exploits and overlooked vulnerabilities. First, we examine the current state of integration documentation across leading DeFi protocols and networks. Then, we explore how those integration guidelines and security checklists can be used by AI tools. Finally, we outline several real examples from our past engagements where this approach demonstrates promising results.
