Stylus Upgrades
Contents
Stylus Upgrade Model
Stylus contracts run on Arbitrum as WebAssembly (WASM) programs alongside the EVM. They share the same state trie, storage model, and account system as Solidity contracts. Because of this, EVM proxy patterns work identically for Stylus — a Solidity proxy can delegate to a Stylus implementation and vice versa.

setup-solidity-contracts
Set up a Solidity smart contract project with OpenZeppelin Contracts. Use when users need to: (1) create a new Hardhat or Foundry project, (2) install OpenZeppelin Contracts dependencies for Solidity, (3) configure remappings for Foundry, or (4) understand Solidity import conventions for OpenZeppelin.
241develop-secure-contracts
Develop secure smart contracts using OpenZeppelin Contracts libraries. Use when users need to integrate OpenZeppelin library components — including token standards (ERC20, ERC721, ERC1155), access control (Ownable, AccessControl, AccessManager), security primitives (Pausable, ReentrancyGuard), governance (Governor, timelocks), or accounts (multisig, account abstraction) — into existing or new contracts. Covers pattern discovery from library source, CLI contract generators, and library-first integration. Supports Solidity, Cairo, Stylus, and Stellar.
220upgrade-solidity-contracts
Upgrade Solidity smart contracts using OpenZeppelin proxy patterns. Use when users need to: (1) make contracts upgradeable with UUPS, Transparent, or Beacon proxies, (2) write initializers instead of constructors, (3) use the Hardhat or Foundry upgrades plugins, (4) understand storage layout rules and ERC-7201 namespaced storage, (5) validate upgrade safety, (6) manage proxy deployments and upgrades, or (7) understand upgrade restrictions between OpenZeppelin Contracts major versions.
202setup-stellar-contracts
Set up a Stellar/Soroban smart contract project with OpenZeppelin Contracts for Stellar. Use when users need to: (1) install Stellar CLI and Rust toolchain for Soroban, (2) create a new Soroban project, (3) add OpenZeppelin Stellar dependencies to Cargo.toml, or (4) understand Soroban import conventions and contract patterns for OpenZeppelin.
113upgrade-stellar-contracts
Upgrade Stellar/Soroban smart contracts using OpenZeppelin's upgradeable module. Use when users need to: (1) make Soroban contracts upgradeable via native WASM replacement, (2) use Upgradeable or UpgradeableMigratable derive macros, (3) implement atomic upgrade-and-migrate patterns with an Upgrader contract, (4) ensure storage key compatibility across upgrades, or (5) test upgrade paths for Soroban contracts.
105upgrade-cairo-contracts
Upgrade Cairo smart contracts using OpenZeppelin's UpgradeableComponent on Starknet. Use when users need to: (1) make Cairo contracts upgradeable via replace_class_syscall, (2) integrate the OpenZeppelin UpgradeableComponent, (3) understand Starknet's class-based upgrade model vs EVM proxy patterns, (4) ensure storage compatibility across upgrades, (5) guard upgrade functions with access control, or (6) test upgrade paths for Cairo contracts.
