The `hardhat-tenderly` plugin integrates Hardhat with the Tenderly platform, enabling developers to verify smart contracts and access features like debugging, simulations, and devnets. It supports multiple verification modes (private, public, fork, devnet) and approaches (automatic, manual, task-based), making it easy to verify contracts during deployment or afterward. This tool is ideal for Ethereum developers using Hardhat who want seamless contract verification and monitoring on Tenderly.
