# Base Chain Transaction Simulator

> Base Chain Transaction Simulator is a paid API for AI agents from kr-x402-mvp.kgy5612.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).

Simulates one or more Ethereum/Base transactions to predict outcomes, gas costs, token transfers, and safety verdicts before sending on-chain

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://kr-x402-mvp.kgy5612.workers.dev/crypto/simulate?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.003/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-31

- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_PnH_nq1u2QKZoIlWuBDBK

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 base-chain-transaction-simulator-54363762
```

Example prompt: Before I send this USDC transfer on Base, simulate the transaction from 0xe4be4d0bd82d8e68203deff81f79ede0529f2617 to contract 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913 with calldata 0xa9059cbb... and tell me if it'll succeed, how much gas it'll use, and what token balance changes to expect.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to safely pre-check any Base chain transaction — especially before sending DeFi interactions, token transfers, or multi-step contract calls — to get a decoded, human-readable verdict with balance changes and gas estimates without risking actual funds. Prefer this over raw eth_call when you need decoded function names, token transfer summaries, and safety verdicts in one structured response. No API key is required; payment is micro-billed per call via x402/USDC.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid address format returns schema validation error
- Malformed calldata (non-hex) rejected with 400
- Simulation of calls requiring large ETH value may fail if sender has no balance on Base fork
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 returns 402 Payment Required
- Batch exceeding 5 calls rejected
- Network congestion may cause stale block data in simulation results

## How this service works

Pay-per-call crypto microdata for trading/onchain AI agents via x402 (USDC on Base): Base gas, token risk, balances, multi-venue prices, Hyperliquid book/funding, kimchi premium. No API keys.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: overall success flag, a human-readable summary and SAFE_TO_SEND/REVERT verdict, per-call results (function decoded, gas used, revert reason if any), total gas used, fee in ETH and USD, list of token transfers with amounts and symbols, net balance changes per address, approval events, and suggested next endpoints to call.
