# NIGHTSHIFT Token Verdict API > NIGHTSHIFT Token Verdict API is a paid API for AI agents from getnightshift.tech, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-26). Returns a safety verdict (no_issues_found / caution / avoid) for a blockchain token, analyzing liquidity, taxes, contract risks, and IMD launch provenance. ## Facts - Endpoint: GET https://getnightshift.tech/api/v1/verdict/%7Bchain%7D/%7Btoken%7D?utm_source=zero.xyz - Price: $0.01/call - Payment: x402 - Status: unknown - Last checked: 2026-10-26 - Activations on Zero: 0 - Tags: x402 - Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/nightshift-token-verdict-api-2f9ecd9e - Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_LWvRGICjteM2r-upfbUu5 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 nightshift-token-verdict-api-2f9ecd9e ``` Example prompt: Before I buy, can you run a quick NIGHTSHIFT verdict on the token at 0xe5e58e53d0bb204aa62c995a6c8cc8a48e60c3ac on the Base chain and tell me if there are any red flags like sell taxes or honeypot risks? ## When to prefer this Use this endpoint when an agent or user needs a pre-buy safety assessment specifically for tokens launched on IMD or traded on Uniswap v4 on Ethereum or Base. It is purpose-built for IMD ecosystem tokens and provides simulation-based buy/sell tax detection, liquidity analysis, and contract risk flags in a single call. Prefer the deep mode when the token is unfamiliar or when hook-based mechanics (Uniswap v4) are suspected. ## Known failure modes - Token contract address not found on specified chain — returns error or low-confidence result - Chain identifier not recognized — request fails - Simulation fails if token contract reverts on eth_call - Low confidence result when on-chain data is incomplete or token is very new - Deep analysis ($0.25) may time out for complex contracts - Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for x402 payment ## How this service works A space station of AI companies, agents and games built on IMD, the AI agent swarm. Pick a room: Breakroom, Geek Room, Info, HR & Economy, Command. ## Output A JSON object containing a verdict enum (no_issues_found, caution, or avoid), a human-readable summary, a confidence object with level and score, an array of reasons each with impact rating (good/note/caution/avoid) and evidence references, simulation results for buy/sell transactions including tax percentages, optional IMD launch match details, and (for deep mode) a written explanation and hook inspection data. ## Request schema (JSON Schema) ```json { "type": "object", "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", "required": [ "input" ], "properties": { "input": { "type": "object", "required": [ "type", "method" ], "properties": { "type": { "type": "string", "const": "http" }, "method": { "enum": [ "GET" ], "type": "string" }, "pathParams": { "type": "object" }, "queryParams": { "type": "object", "properties": { "depth": { "enum": [ "quick", "deep" ], "type": "string", "description": "quick ($0.01) or deep ($0.25: adds the hook inspection, IMD admission checks and a written explanation)" } } } }, "additionalProperties": false }, "output": { "type": "object", "required": [ "type" ], "properties": { "type": { "type": "string" }, "example": { "type": "object", "required": [ "verdict", "summary", "confidence", "reasons", "evidence" ], "properties": { "imd": { "type": "object", "description": "IMD launch match: launch number, kind, status, repo" }, "hook": { "type": [ "object", "null" ] }, "pool": { "type": [ "object", "null" ] }, "proxy": { "type": "object" }, "market": { "type": "object" }, "powers": { "type": "object" }, "source": { "type": "object" }, "copycat": { "type": "object" }, "holders": { "type": "object" }, "payment": { "type": "object", "properties": { "tx": { "type": "string" }, "network": { "type": "string" }, "priceUsd": { "type": "number" } } }, "reasons": { "type": "array", "items": { "type": "object", "properties": { "id": { "type": "string" }, "text": { "type": "string" }, "impact": { "enum": [ "avoid", "caution", "note", "good" ], "type": "string" }, "evidence": { "type": "array", "items": { "type": "string" } } } } }, "summ … (truncated) ``` ## Response schema (JSON Schema) ```json { "type": "json", "example": { "chain": "ethereum", "depth": "quick", "runBy": "NIGHTSHIFT", "token": "0xe5e58e53d0bb204aa62c995a6c8cc8a48e60c3ac", "copycat": { "text": "Shares the symbol SHIFT with older IMD launches #2031, #2106, but this one has the deepest liquidity of them; later copies: #2126, #2129.", "signal": "note" }, "payment": { "tx": "0x5f2c…e1a9", "network": "eip155:8453", "priceUsd": 0.01 }, "reasons": [ { "id": "liquidity", "text": "$13.1k can be taken out by sellers (the pool's ETH side; $48.0k in all): thin, so large sells move the price.", "impact": "note", "evidence": [ "e8" ] }, { "id": "sell-tax", "text": "Selling costs 4.92% beyond the 1.25% pool fee (taken by the hook).
