# Base Contract Raw Storage Slot Reader (eth_getStorageAt)

> Base Contract Raw Storage Slot Reader (eth_getStorageAt) is a paid API for AI agents from x402-data-api.sigrunner.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-24).

Returns the raw 32-byte storage slot value for any Base contract address using eth_getStorageAt, ideal for reading proxy implementation/admin slots or arbitrary contract state.

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-contract-raw-storage-slot-reader-eth-getstorageat-ce9d9c88
```

Example prompt: What is the raw value stored at storage slot 0x360894a13ba1a3210667c828492db98dca3e2076cc3735a920a3ca505d382bbc on Base contract 0x833589fCd6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913? That's the EIP-1967 implementation slot — I want to see what address it points to.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs low-level on-chain storage inspection for Base contracts — particularly for reading EIP-1967 proxy implementation/admin slots, verifying upgrade state, or accessing raw storage values that are not exposed through ABI-decoded read functions. Prefer this over higher-level contract-call endpoints when you need to bypass ABI decoding or when the slot layout is known but no public getter exists. At $0.002 per call it is cost-effective for single-slot spot checks.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-0x-prefixed contract address returns an error response
- Non-existent contract or EOA address returns a zero value (0x000...0000) without indicating absence of contract
- Invalid slot hex format may cause a bad request error
- Network or RPC connectivity issues on Base may result in a 5xx response
- Payment failure via x402 protocol (insufficient USDC) blocks the request before it reaches the RPC

## How this service works

Raw storage slot (eth_getStorageAt) of a Base contract. Use when an agent needs proxy implementation/admin slots or raw contract state.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with four fields: address (the queried contract), slot (the hex slot index), value (the 32-byte hex-encoded storage value), and chain (always 'base'). The value can be decoded as an address, uint256, bool, or bytes32 depending on the contract's storage layout.
