$ forge inspect --help
Usage: forge inspect [OPTIONS] <CONTRACT> <FIELD>

Arguments:
  <CONTRACT>
          The identifier of the contract to inspect in the form `(<path>:)?<contractname>`

  <FIELD>
          The contract artifact field to inspect
          
          [possible values: abi, bytecode, deployedBytecode, assembly, assemblyOptimized,
          methodIdentifiers, gasEstimates, storageLayout, devdoc, ir, irOptimized, metadata,
          userdoc, ewasm, errors, events, eof, eof-init]

Options:
      --pretty
          Pretty print the selected field, if supported

  -h, --help
          Print help (see a summary with '-h')

Cache options:
      --force
          Clear the cache and artifacts folder and recompile

Build options:
      --no-cache
          Disable the cache

      --skip <SKIP>...
          Skip building files whose names contain the given filter.
          
          `test` and `script` are aliases for `.t.sol` and `.s.sol`.

Linker options:
      --libraries <LIBRARIES>
          Set pre-linked libraries
          
          [env: DAPP_LIBRARIES=]

Compiler options:
      --ignored-error-codes <ERROR_CODES>
          Ignore solc warnings by error code

      --deny-warnings
          Warnings will trigger a compiler error

      --no-auto-detect
          Do not auto-detect the `solc` version

      --use <SOLC_VERSION>
          Specify the solc version, or a path to a local solc, to build with.
          
          Valid values are in the format `x.y.z`, `solc:x.y.z` or `path/to/solc`.

      --offline
          Do not access the network.
          
          Missing solc versions will not be installed.

      --via-ir
          Use the Yul intermediate representation compilation pipeline

      --no-metadata
          Do not append any metadata to the bytecode.
          
          This is equivalent to setting `bytecode_hash` to `none` and `cbor_metadata` to `false`.

      --silent
          Don't print anything on startup

      --ast
          Includes the AST as JSON in the compiler output

      --evm-version <VERSION>
          The target EVM version

      --optimize
          Activate the Solidity optimizer

      --optimizer-runs <RUNS>
          The number of optimizer runs

      --extra-output <SELECTOR>...
          Extra output to include in the contract's artifact.
          
          Example keys: evm.assembly, ewasm, ir, irOptimized, metadata
          
          For a full description, see
          <https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/v0.8.13/using-the-compiler.html#input-description>

      --extra-output-files <SELECTOR>...
          Extra output to write to separate files.
          
          Valid values: metadata, ir, irOptimized, ewasm, evm.assembly

Project options:
  -o, --out <PATH>
          The path to the contract artifacts folder

      --revert-strings <REVERT>
          Revert string configuration.
          
          Possible values are "default", "strip" (remove), "debug" (Solidity-generated revert
          strings) and "verboseDebug"

      --build-info
          Generate build info files

      --build-info-path <PATH>
          Output path to directory that build info files will be written to

      --root <PATH>
          The project's root path.
          
          By default root of the Git repository, if in one, or the current working directory.

  -C, --contracts <PATH>
          The contracts source directory

  -R, --remappings <REMAPPINGS>
          The project's remappings

      --remappings-env <ENV>
          The project's remappings from the environment

      --cache-path <PATH>
          The path to the compiler cache

      --lib-paths <PATH>
          The path to the library folder

      --hardhat
          Use the Hardhat-style project layout.
          
          This is the same as using: `--contracts contracts --lib-paths node_modules`.

      --config-path <FILE>
          Path to the config file
