# DeFi Safety Oracle – Token Risk Explainer

> DeFi Safety Oracle – Token Risk Explainer is a paid API for AI agents from oracle.cyberwarex.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Assesses whether an ERC-20 token is safe to trade by running honeypot/rug simulations and contract analysis, returning a risk grade (A–F) and verdict (ALLOW/LIMIT/RECHECK/BLOCK).

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://oracle.cyberwarex.com/risk/explain?utm_source=zero.xyz
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-10-11

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 defi-safety-oracle-token-risk-explainer-994b4e73
```

Example prompt: Can you check if the token at 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913 on Base is safe to trade — run a honeypot and rug simulation and tell me the risk grade?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs a deterministic, on-chain honeypot and rug simulation before executing or recommending a DeFi token trade — especially on Base or BSC. Prefer over off-chain token screeners when you need eth_call state-override simulation against real DEX pools (Aerodrome, Uniswap V2/V3/V4) and a structured ALLOW/BLOCK verdict with reason codes. The pay-per-call x402 model makes it cost-effective for high-frequency pre-trade checks without a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-ERC-20 contract address returns an error or unresolvable result
- Token not listed on supported DEX pools (Aerodrome, Uniswap V2/V3/V4) may return incomplete simulation data
- Unsupported chain value returns validation error
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402 USDC insufficient balance) blocks the call
- Newly deployed contracts with no on-chain liquidity may yield inconclusive grades
- Network RPC issues may cause simulation timeouts

## How this service works

Is this token safe to trade? Deterministic honeypot/rug simulation (eth_call state-override on real DEX pools: Aerodrome, Uniswap V2/V3/V4), contract-powers analysis, and GoPlus/honeypot.is cross-checks on Base & BSC. Grades A–F. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base, v1+v2 dual-stack).

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: the token address, chain, an overall integer risk score, a letter grade (A–F), a verdict (ALLOW/LIMIT/RECHECK/BLOCK), a recommendation action with reason codes, the oracle ruleset version used, and a disclaimer. Enables agents to make pass/fail trading decisions programmatically.
