Scan a token
get_token_scanAssess a token's full rug-pull risk: view metadata, holder distribution, and creator history, then get a 0-100 safety score to guide buy or avoid decisions.
Instructions
Run a full DeFade scan on one token contract: token metadata, holder distribution, creator history (wallet age, previous token launches) and the headline risk verdict. Start here for any "is this token safe", "is this a rug pull" or "should I buy this" question. Returns risk.score as a SAFETY score where 100 is clean and low numbers are dangerous, with a rating label. For the inverse — a rug pull probability where high means dangerous — call get_rug_score. Not for a single module in isolation (call that module's tool directly), price or market-cap questions (get_token_price), or checking the caller's own quota (get_usage). Arguments: address and chain; one API unit on any chain.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| chain | No | Chain the token is deployed on: solana (default), ethereum, base, robinhood. Required for any 0x address, because the same contract address can exist on several EVM chains. Omit it for Solana. An unsupported value is rejected before any request is spent; EVM chains need a key on an All-Chains plan. | solana |
| address | Yes | The token's own contract address, exactly as an explorer shows it. Solana: the base58 mint, 32-44 characters (e.g. 6p6xgHyF7AeE6TZkSmFsko444wqoP15icUSqi2jfGiPN). EVM: 0x followed by 40 hex characters, case-insensitive (e.g. 0x6982508145454ce325ddbe47a25d4ec3d2311933). Never a pool, pair, wallet or deployer address — those come back as not found. Set `chain` to match the address: a 0x address alone cannot say which EVM chain it lives on, and a Solana mint sent with an EVM chain is rejected. |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| risk | No | The SAFETY score: score (0-100, 100 is clean), rating, color, flags. Opposite direction from get_rug_score. | |
| token | No | Token metadata: name, symbol, mint, supply, decimals, creator, mintAuthority, freezeAuthority, marketCap, liquidity. | |
| creator | No | Deployer wallet: address, walletAgeDays, solBalance, totalTransactions, tokenCreations, recentTokens, riskLevel. | |
| holders | No | Same body as get_holders: totalHolders, topHolders, concentration, protocolHoldings, lockedSupply, deferredUnlock, bundles. | |
| success | No | Whether the scan completed. | |
| poweredBy | No | Always "DeFade.org". | |
| scanCount | No | How many times DeFade has scanned this token: the lifetime figure the rug database shows when the token has a row there (scanWindow "all"), otherwise the last 24h (scanWindow "24h"). | |
| timestamp | No | ISO time the response was assembled. | |
| analyzedAt | No | ISO time of the scan itself. | |
| scanWindow | No | "all" when scanCount is the lifetime rug-database figure, "24h" when it is the last 24 hours only. |
