# Base Transaction Type Inspector

> Base Transaction Type Inspector is a paid API for AI agents from signalharness.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Classifies and analyzes a raw Base/Ethereum transaction JSON to determine its EIP type, expected fields, and OP Stack network context

## Facts

- Endpoint: POST https://signalharness.ai/api/agent/services/base_transaction_type_inspect/invoke
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15

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-transaction-type-inspector-a5a3d17c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you inspect this Base transaction JSON and tell me what type it is, which EIP standard it follows, and whether any required fields like max_fee_per_gas or max_priority_fee_per_gas are missing?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically classify a raw Base or Ethereum transaction JSON by its EIP type, verify field completeness, or understand OP Stack-specific metadata like deposit transaction types and L2 fee models. Prefer this over generic Ethereum tools when working specifically on Base mainnet or Base Sepolia (chain IDs 8453/84532) and needing OP Stack context.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed JSON string in request_json causes parse failure
- Transaction type is unknown or undocumented, triggering a warning about future types
- Missing fields in transaction JSON reduce classification confidence
- Unsupported transaction format returns incomplete analysis

## How this service works

Explore 330 pay-per-call x402 API services and 27 agent-native digital products, with Base USDC pricing, secure Polar checkout, and free discovery.

## Output

Returns a structured analysis including the transaction's EIP classification (e.g. 0x2 for EIP-1559 or 0x7e for OP Stack deposit), whether it is Base-specific, expected and missing fields, and full network context including accepted chain IDs, fee model description, and OP Stack protocol family. Also returns evidence scope and analyzed network identifier.
