NAME

token-honeypot — evm token honeypot detection / can-i-sell check / rug-pull scanner / sell-tax simulator / buy-tax simulator / scam token detector / base…

SYNOPSIS

POST https://x402.org/v1/token-honeypot
     Content-Type: application/json
     X-PAYMENT:    <signed-transferWithAuthorization>

     { ... }

↳ first call → 402 Payment Required. Sign USDCtransferWithAuthorization, retry with theX-PAYMENT header.

DESCRIPTION

EVM token honeypot detection / can-i-sell check / rug-pull scanner / sell-tax simulator / buy-tax simulator / scam token detector / Base honeypot / Ethereum honeypot / BSC honeypot. Simulates a buy + sell of an ERC-20 token via honeypot.is, returning whether the token is a honeypot, the realized buy/sell/transfer tax percentages, max buy/sell amounts (atomic units), proxy/owner contract flags, and a normalized risk level (low/medium/high/critical) with human-readable reasons. Free public API — no auth.

INPUT — request schema

property	type	description	req?
token_address	string	0x-prefixed 20-byte EVM token contract address.	required
chain	string	EVM chain. Default 'base'. enum: base · ethereum · bsc	optional

OUTPUT — response shape

field	type	description
token	string	ERC-20 contract address that was scanned for honeypot behavior.
chain	string	EVM chain the simulation ran on (e.g. ethereum, base, bsc).
simulation	string	Buy/sell simulation results including realized tax percentages and max buy/sell amounts in atomic units.
contract	string	Contract flags such as proxy status, owner address, and other ownership/permission attributes.
risk	string	Normalized risk level (low/medium/high/critical) plus human-readable reasons for the rating.
source	string	Upstream data provider used for the check (honeypot.is).

EXAMPLES — two ways to call

EXAMPLE 1 · curl

curl -X POST https://x402.org/v1/token-honeypot \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{ }'

first response = 402 Payment Required with payment requirements; sign + retry with X-PAYMENT.

EXAMPLE 2 · mcp

# install once
claude mcp add x402 --command "npx x402-deployer-mcp"

# then ask Claude Code:
# "use the token-honeypot tool to ..."

MCP server handles payment automatically — your coding agent just calls the tool by name.
