## 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 vape-rug-pull-alert-scanner-98298fb1
```

Example prompt: Can you scan the Base contract 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678 for rug pull risk and tell me if it's safe to invest in?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call rug pull risk assessment for a specific Base chain token or contract address — especially useful before executing a swap, investment, or interaction with an unknown DeFi contract. Prefer this over general-purpose block explorers when you need a structured risk verdict with owner-power analysis rather than raw on-chain data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed contract address returns an error response
- Non-Base chain address without chain override may return incorrect results
- Contract not yet indexed or very newly deployed may have incomplete analysis
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in no scan being performed
- Rate limiting or worker timeout may occur under high load

## How this service works

VAPE rug_pull_alert — Owner-power / rug-risk flags (mint, blacklist, pausable transfers, LP concentration). Real on-chain/market data, no simulation.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the scanned address, a verdict (e.g. PROCEED or WARNING), a rug risk level (e.g. LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH), and a list of owner powers that could indicate malicious contract controls.
