# Owner Powers (Latent Rug Surface)

> Owner Powers (Latent Rug Surface) is a paid API for AI agents from 402.com.tr, paid per call via x402, $0.03/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-18).

Analyzes a token contract's mutable owner powers to reveal hidden post-purchase attack vectors like tax manipulation, balance zeroing, blacklisting, and fake renouncements.

## 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 owner-powers-latent-rug-surface-abf0593e
```

Example prompt: Before I ape into this token, check what owner powers are still active on contract 0x1234...abcd — specifically whether they can raise the sell tax, blacklist me, zero my balance, or if that renounce is actually real.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to assess post-purchase ownership risk specifically — not just whether a token is currently sellable, but what the owner *could* do to trap buyers later. Prefer this over generic honeypot checkers when evaluating tokens where the dev claims renouncement, where taxes are currently low but could be changed, or when building automated token screening pipelines that go beyond sell-at-current-state checks.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent contract address returns an error
- Contract on an unsupported chain returns unsupported network error
- Proxy or upgradeable contracts may obscure true owner powers
- Highly obfuscated bytecode may result in incomplete power detection
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) blocks the call
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession

## How this service works

A token can look clean now — low tax, no honeypot, sells fine — and still leave the owner holding the switches to trap you later. sellability asks 'can I sell today'; this asks 'what can the owner do AFTER I buy'. Lists the mutable owner powers — raise sell tax to 100%, zero your balance, blacklist you, pause transfers, reclaim 'renounced' ownership, mint supply — each mapped to the attack it enables, plus whether a renounce is real. Not financial advice.

## Output

Returns a structured list of mutable owner powers present in the token contract — including the ability to raise sell tax (up to 100%), zero wallet balances, add addresses to a blacklist, pause all transfers, reclaim supposedly renounced ownership, and mint additional supply. Each power is mapped to the specific attack vector it enables (e.g. exit liquidity trap, targeted wallet drain). Also indicates whether any renouncement on the contract is genuine or reversible.
