## 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 token-safety-verdict-e323eb5f -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run a safety check on this Base token at address 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000006 and tell me if it's a honeypot, whether liquidity is locked, and what the overall risk verdict is?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, multi-signal security assessment of a specific token on the Base blockchain before trading, listing, or integrating it. It combines two independent honeypot detection sources with liquidity lock status, ownership checks, and tax analysis in a single call — preferable over single-source checkers or generic on-chain data APIs when you need a consolidated risk verdict with confidence consensus. Best suited for DeFi trading bots, portfolio managers, or user-facing agents that need to gate decisions on token safety.

## Known failure modes

- Contract address not found on Base — 'found: false' with incomplete check data
- Honeypot sources disagree — 'contradiction' field populated, lower confidence result
- Token has no DEX liquidity — liquidity USD reported as 0 or near-zero
- Invalid contract address format returns validation error
- Idempotency key reuse with different address may return cached result for original address
- Network or provider timeout results in 'checkIncomplete: true'

## How this service works

Token safety verdict for Base: contract security (two independent honeypot sources), DEX liquidity, blacklist and scam pattern checks

## Output

A JSON object containing a numerical risk score (0–10), a verdict label (e.g. SAFE, CAUTION, DANGER), a list of human-readable risk flags, and detailed contract data including honeypot consensus from two independent sources, DEX liquidity in USD, buy/sell tax rates, open-source status, proxy detection, mint capability, ownership renouncement, and liquidity lock status.
