## 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-token-risk-verdict-9f062590
```

Example prompt: Can you run a full risk check on this Base token — contract address 0x4ed4E862860beD51a9570b96d89aF5E1B0Efefed — and tell me the grade, risk score, whether it's a honeypot, and what the taxes look like?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, all-in-one risk verdict on a Base network token — especially when you need honeypot detection, tax analysis, and owner-power flags combined in a single paid call. Prefer over manual on-chain inspection when building trading bots, DeFi safety dashboards, or agent-driven token screeners on the Base chain. Not suitable for tokens on other EVM chains (use chain-specific tools instead).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent contract address returns an error or empty verdict
- Contract exists on another EVM chain but not on Base — returns not-found or incorrect data
- Very new tokens with no trading pair yet may return incomplete liquidity/pair-age data
- Rate limiting or payment failure (insufficient USDC) returns 402 Payment Required
- Network congestion on Base may cause delayed or failed on-chain simulation

## Output

The agent receives a structured verdict containing: a letter grade (e.g. B, C, D), a numeric risk score from 0-100, a list of weighted risk flags with explanations, a honeypot simulation result, buy and sell tax percentages, owner privilege flags, liquidity metrics, holder distribution data, trading pair age, a one-line risk summary, and a short narrative take on the token's overall safety profile.
