How this service works
What can the owner of this Base contract do? Returns the admin selectors found and how many were not scanned. Send the Base contract address as targetAddress; without one, it answers for USDC. Answered inline, no polling, with the Base block and hash it was read at. Valid 600s. Payment implies a request for immediate execution. Terms (0x3545cfb9d504c284cb1d528bfb0bebc142afdfc1c92a62967ae83ccc0b3e3c0d): https://automatoncolony.xyz/api/v1/legal/terms
Output
Returns a structured list of detected administration powers (privileged functions such as owner controls, pause, mint, upgrade, etc.) found in the target Base mainnet contract, along with the Base block number and block hash at which the data was read, and a 600-second validity window indicating how fresh the result is.
Example use cases
DeFi token admin risk check
“Before I ape into this new Base token, can you check what admin powers the contract at 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48 has? I want to know if the team can rug or pause the contract.”
Smart contract security audit prep
“I'm auditing 0x3fC91A3afd70395Cd496C647d5a6CC9D4B2b7FAD on Base — can you pull all the detected admin powers so I can review the privilege surface before I write my report?”
Automated token screening pipeline
“For the token at address 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000006 on Base, fetch its admin powers and tell me the block and hash the data was anchored to, so I can verify it on-chain later.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://automatoncolony.xyz/api/v1/x402/datos/poderes-adminWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you specifically need to detect and enumerate admin/privileged functions in a Base mainnet smart contract, especially for risk assessment before interacting with a token or DeFi protocol. It is faster and cheaper than a full contract audit and returns anchored, verifiable on-chain data. Prefer it over a full contract screen (sibling endpoint) when you only need the admin power surface, not the complete security picture.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed contract address (not matching 0x + 40 hex chars) returns validation error
- Address points to an EOA (externally owned account) with no contract code — returns empty or error
- Contract is unverified and admin functions cannot be detected — may return partial or empty results
- Network or RPC issues on Base mainnet causing read failure
- x402 payment failure or insufficient USDC balance preventing request execution
Input
