> CryptoPulse Token Risk Checker is a paid API for AI agents from cryptopulse.saascloud.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Checks an ERC-20 token contract for rug-pull and security risks including honeypot detection, mintability, owner privileges, trading taxes, and LP holder concentration.

## 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 cryptopulse-token-risk-checker-891938ce
```

Example prompt: Before I buy this token, can you run a rug-pull and honeypot safety check on contract address 0x4ed4E862860beD51a9570b96d89aF5E1B0Efefed on the Base chain?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an agent needs to perform a pre-trade security check on an ERC-20 token before executing a swap or purchase. It is purpose-built for rug-pull and honeypot detection with structured risk signals (tax, mint, owner, LP) rather than requiring manual smart contract inspection. Prefer this over generic blockchain explorers when you need a machine-readable, scored risk output suitable for automated trading agent decision gates across Base, Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, and Arbitrum.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent contract address returns an error or empty result
- Token on unsupported chain returns a chain-not-supported error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 Payment Required
- Contract is not an ERC-20 token and cannot be analyzed
- Network RPC issues may cause intermittent failures or stale data
- Newly deployed contracts with no LP may return incomplete data

## How this service works

Token security / rug-pull risk check for any ERC-20 (honeypot, mintable, owner privileges, tax, LP holders). Essential pre-trade safety check for trading agents.

## Output

Returns a structured risk report for the queried ERC-20 token including: honeypot detection result, whether the contract has mintable supply, any owner-level dangerous privileges, buy/sell tax percentages, LP holder distribution/concentration, and an overall risk assessment to inform a pre-trade safety decision.
