# Maiat Protocol Token Safety Check

> Maiat Protocol Token Safety Check is a paid API for AI agents from app.maiat.io, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Checks an ERC-20 token contract address for honeypot traps, high taxes, and safety risks, returning a trust verdict for autonomous agents.

## 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 maiat-protocol-token-safety-check-429ae657
```

Example prompt: Before my agent swaps into this token, check if contract address 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F is a honeypot, has high taxes, or is otherwise unsafe to proceed with.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to autonomously evaluate whether a token contract is safe before executing a DeFi swap, transfer, or investment action — especially to catch honeypots and high-tax traps before committing funds.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed contract address returns an error or ambiguous result
- Unverified or very new contracts may return verified=false with limited analysis
- Network or RPC issues may cause timeouts
- Token on unsupported chain may return incomplete data

## How this service works

The decentralized truth layer. Verifying the future of autonomous agents and trust.

## Output

A JSON object with boolean flags: `safe` (overall safety), `honeypot` (whether the contract traps funds), `highTax` (whether transfer taxes are excessive), `verified` (whether the contract is verified), and a `verdict` string such as 'proceed' or 'avoid' summarizing the trust assessment.
