Projects

  • NiceMove: AI-Powered Move Smart-Contract Linter

    VS Code extension that flags Sui Move smart-contract issues locally with a small specialised model, then hands fixes to an AI coding assistant on demand.

    • Brought to final form by Vasilis Bakalis as part of his MSc thesis; ~99% accuracy on the classification task in preliminary evaluation, outperforming general-purpose LLMs used out-of-the-box.
    • Collaboration: SuiHub Athens / Mysten Labs.
