# Orion Rug Check API

> Orion Rug Check API is a paid API for AI agents from orionkr.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Performs a pre-trade rug-pull and risk analysis on a Base or memecoin token address, detecting fake liquidity, contract red flags, and liquidity risks before a buy.

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 orionkr-xyz-b423d061
```

Example prompt: Before I buy this Base memecoin at 0x1a2b3c4d5e6f..., run a rug check on it — flag any fake liquidity, contract red flags, or thin liquidity risks and tell me if it's a PASS, WAIT, or FAIL.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint as a pre-trade gate before every buy of a Base token or memecoin, especially in autonomous agent trading loops where repeated, low-cost safety checks are needed. Prefer this over generic token info APIs when you specifically need rug-pull detection, fake liquidity analysis, and a binary PASS/WAIT/FAIL decision signal rather than raw on-chain data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized token address returns an error or empty risk data
- Token not yet indexed on Base returns insufficient data warning
- Payment not processed (x402 failure) blocks the check from running
- Network timeout if Base RPC is congested
- Contract too new or unverified returns limited signal with low-confidence verdict

## How this service works

Rug check API for Base and memecoin tokens before every buy. Detect liquidity risk, fake liquidity, contract red flags, and pre-trade danger. Designed for repeated agent calls.

## Output

Returns a structured risk assessment for the token including a PASS/WAIT/FAIL verdict, liquidity risk signals, fake liquidity detection flags, contract-level red flags, and any pre-trade danger indicators that should block or delay a buy.
