# Arbitrum Contract Detection

> Arbitrum Contract Detection is a paid API for AI agents from agent-data-tools.revmesh2074.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-19).

Checks whether a given Ethereum address is a smart contract on Arbitrum One, returning contract metadata including code size, proxy type, and implementation address.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability arbitrum-contract-detection-556e92d0
```

Example prompt: Is 0xaf88d065e77c8cC2239327C5EDb3A432268e5831 a smart contract on Arbitrum One, and if so, is it a proxy with an implementation address?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to classify an address on Arbitrum One as a contract vs. EOA, or to detect proxy patterns (minimal proxy / EIP-1167) and resolve the underlying implementation. Choose this over generic Ethereum tools when the target chain is Arbitrum, and prefer it over block explorers when you need a machine-readable, pay-per-call result with no API key.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed address format returns an error
- Address with no on-chain activity may return isContract: false even if recently deployed
- Network timeout or RPC unavailability for Arbitrum may cause failure
- Non-0x-prefixed address strings may be rejected by schema validation

## How this service works

Check whether a 0x address on Arbitrum One is a smart contract or a plain wallet: bytecode size, and whether it is an EIP-1167 minimal proxy and which implementation it points to. Use before sending funds or approving a spender; for a fuller risk verdict use check_counterparty. A malformed address is rejected with 400, uncharged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the chain name ('Arbitrum One'), chainId (42161), the queried address, a boolean isContract indicating whether the address has deployed bytecode, codeBytes with the size of the bytecode, a minimalProxy boolean indicating EIP-1167 proxy pattern, and an implementation field (address string or null) pointing to the underlying logic contract if it is a proxy.
