## 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 bentcrypto-exit-simulation-78582321 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I sell my Base token at 0x4ed4E862860beD51a9570b96d89aF5E1B0Efefed, can you run an exit simulation to see how much ETH I'd get, what the price impact would be, estimated gas, and whether it's actually sellable?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need pre-trade exit validation specifically for Base-chain tokens before committing to a buy or sell. It is ideal for DeFi bots, portfolio managers, or risk-conscious traders who want to verify sellability, liquidity depth, and realistic output amounts without broadcasting a transaction. Prefer this over generic DEX quote APIs when you also need honeypot/sell-restriction evidence and a composed risk signal alongside the swap route.

## Known failure modes

- Token contract not found on Base — returns error if address is invalid or not deployed
- Insufficient liquidity — simulation fails or returns high price impact warning when no viable swap route exists
- Token has transfer restrictions — flagged as unsellable with evidence of honeypot or blacklist
- RPC/network timeout — Base node latency causes simulation failure
- Invalid token amount — zero or negative amounts rejected

## How this service works

BentCrypto Exit Simulation - route, expected output, price impact, gas and sellability evidence for Base tokens

## Output

Returns a structured simulation result including the optimal swap route, expected token output amount in the destination asset, price impact percentage, estimated gas cost in ETH, and sellability evidence indicating whether the token has sell restrictions or honeypot characteristics.
