Cairo Contract Interactions

Overview

Guide contract to contract calls using interfaces, dispatchers, and low-level syscalls.

Quick Use

• Read references/contract-interactions.md before answering.
• Prefer generated dispatchers over raw syscalls.
• Mention safe dispatchers for error handling.

Response Checklist

• Define an interface trait for the target contract.
• Use a ContractDispatcher with a contract address.
• Use SafeDispatcher when return errors must be handled explicitly.
• Use contract_call_syscall only for low-level control.

Example Requests

• "How do I call another contract from Cairo?"
• "What is the difference between safe and unsafe dispatchers?"
• "How do I use contract_call_syscall directly?"
