# RugCourt AI – Verdict for Base Tokens

> RugCourt AI – Verdict for Base Tokens is a paid API for AI agents from rugcourt.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-27).

Returns an automated on-chain risk case file for a Base or Clanker token contract, including holder concentration, deployer history, airdrop allocations, and contract trap flags.

## 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 rugcourt-ai-verdict-for-base-tokens-cdde604a
```

Example prompt: Can you run a RugCourt verdict on the Base token at 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678 and tell me the risk score, any flags like airdrop concentration or contract traps, and whether it looks safe to buy?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, holistic on-chain risk assessment for a specific Base or Clanker token contract — especially when evaluating new or low-liquidity tokens for rug pull signals, airdrop dump risk, or deployer red flags. Prefer this over generic block explorers when you want a pre-computed, structured risk verdict with severity-graded flags rather than raw on-chain data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-Base contract address returns an error or empty result
- Token not yet indexed returns no verdict or a pending state
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) returns a 402 Payment Required error
- Contract address for a non-token (e.g. EOA or non-ERC20) may return no meaningful flags
- Very new tokens may have incomplete holder data leading to partial flags

## How this service works

Automated on-chain case files for new Base and Clanker tokens: holders, deployer history, airdrop allocations and contract traps, in one card.

## Output

A JSON case file containing: a risk score (0–100), a badge summarizing the top risk, a headline, a theme (e.g. caution/safe/danger), an array of individual risk flags (each with id, label, detail, and severity), the token symbol and contract address, a link to the full RugCourt case page, and the timestamp when the case was filed.
