> gate402 Base Token Launch Radar is a paid API for AI agents from gate402.app, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

## 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 gate402-base-token-launch-radar-3e08dee0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Show me the 20 freshest token launches on Base with at least $2,000 in liquidity — flag any obvious junk so I can decide which ones to dig into further.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a broad, fresh feed of newly launched Base tokens for top-of-funnel discovery — especially as the first step before running token-risk, momentum, or best-swap analysis on individual tokens. Prefer this over direct GeckoTerminal API calls for its pre-screening and quickFlag layer that filters obvious junk automatically.

## Known failure modes

- No pools found matching the minimum liquidity threshold — try lowering minLiquidityUsd
- GeckoTerminal upstream delay causing stale or empty results
- Payment not processed (402) — ensure x402 USDC payment header is valid
- limit exceeds cap of 30 — clamp to 30
- Invalid parameter types cause 400 validation error

## How this service works

Radar of the freshest Base token launches (newest DEX pools), lightly pre-screened by liquidity/age/flow with quickFlags for obvious junk. Top-of-funnel discovery for trading agents — feeds token-risk / momentum / best-swap. From GeckoTerminal.

## Output

Returns a list of newly-launched Base token pools (up to 30), each with pool address, token metadata, liquidity in USD, pool age, and quickFlag signals that mark obvious junk (e.g. honeypots, zero-activity, dust pools). Acts as a top-of-funnel feed for downstream risk scoring, momentum analysis, and best-swap routing.
