Example Prompts

Once connected, try asking your AI assistant:

Discovery

"Find the safest USDC vaults with at least $10M TVL"

"What Morpho vaults are available on Base?"

"Show me the DeFi market overview"

Analysis

"Run due diligence on the Steakhouse USDC vault on Ethereum"

"Compare the top 3 USDC vaults by risk score"

"What's the risk breakdown for this vault: ethereum/0x..."

Portfolio

"Assess my portfolio: 50% in Morpho Steakhouse USDC, 30% in Aave USDC, 20% in Yearn USDC"

"Which protocols have had security incidents?"

"What does a risk score of 8.5 mean?"


Risk Scoring

Philidor uses the Vector Risk Framework to decompose vault risk into three measurable vectors:

Final Score = 40% Asset + 40% Platform + 20% Governance

Asset Composition (40%)

Quality of underlying collateral. Blue-chip assets (ETH, USDC) score 10/10. Less liquid collateral scores lower.

Platform Code (40%)

Code maturity measured by:

  • Lindy Score — time-based safety (>2 years = ~9/10)

  • Audit Density — number and type of audits

  • Dependency Risk — multiplicative penalties for risky dependencies

  • Incident Penalty — caps score after security incidents

Governance (20%)

Exit window for users:

  • Immutable contract: 10/10

  • 7+ day timelock: 9/10

  • No timelock: 1/10

Risk Tiers

Tier

Score

Meaning

Prime

8.0 - 10.0

Institutional-grade — mature code, multiple audits, safe governance

Core

5.0 - 7.9

Moderate safety — audited but newer or flexible governance

Edge

0.0 - 4.9

Higher risk — requires careful due diligence
