RugShield 402 🛡️ — Open-Source MCP Server for DEX Security & Honeypot Detection

License: MIT MCP Standard TypeScript Base Mainnet x402 Protocol Glama

This repository contains the complete open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation of RugShield 402. It equips LLMs, autonomous trading agents, and IDEs (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf) with tools to simulate token buys/sells, analyze honeypot traps, calculate exact transfer tax rates, and verify DEX liquidity depth on Base and EVM networks.


🛠️ MCP Tools Implemented

This MCP server provides the following tools via standard stdio and streamable HTTP transports:

Tool Name

Description

Key Parameters

rugshield_pre_swap_scan

Comprehensive pre-trade swap simulation: detects honeypots, malicious transfer limits, and liquidity drain traps.

token_address (string, 42-char hex), simulate_sell (boolean, default: true)

check_honeypot

Decompiles token bytecode and executes buy/sell test against Base RPC. Returns exact buy/sell tax in basis points (bps), blacklist checks, and risk score.

🚀 Running from Source (Local Stdio Transport)

You can run this MCP server locally on your machine from source code using Node.js and the Model Context Protocol SDK.

1. Installation & Build

# Clone the open-source repository
git clone https://github.com/ak10082247-max/rugshield-402.git
cd rugshield-402

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the TypeScript source code
npm run build

2. Configure with Claude Desktop

Add this server to your claude_desktop_config.json:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rugshield-402": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/absolute/path/to/rugshield-402/dist/mcp/server.js"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Or run directly with tsx during development without building:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rugshield-402": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "tsx",
        "/absolute/path/to/rugshield-402/src/mcp/server.ts"
      ]
    }
  }
}

3. Configure with Cursor or Windsurf

Add to your workspace .cursor/mcp.json or Windsurf MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rugshield-402": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["dist/mcp/server.js"]
    }
  }
}

📦 Developer SDK & Framework Integrations

RugShield is packaged for automated multi-agent frameworks with 100% gasless autonomous payment settlement ($0 ETH / $0 SOL required):

1. Autonomous Agent Auto-Pay Quickstart (TypeScript)

Wrap standard fetch with @x402/fetch to automatically handle HTTP 402 challenges, sign EIP-712 transfer authorizations on Base, and retry in under 15ms:

npm install @x402/fetch @x402/core @x402/evm viem
import { wrapFetchWithPayment } from "@x402/fetch";
import { x402Client } from "@x402/core/client";
import { ExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm/exact/client";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY as `0x${string}`);
const client = new x402Client();
client.register("eip155:8453", new ExactEvmScheme(account));

// 1-line wrapper automatically signs & unlocks full 100% honeypot simulation
const xFetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, client);
const res = await xFetch("https://rugshield-402.onrender.com/v1/scan", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({ token_address: "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913", simulate_sell: true }),
});
const report = await res.json();
console.log("Full Verified Analysis:", report);

2. Autonomous Agent Auto-Pay Quickstart (Python)

Using the built-in Python client (sdk/python/rugshield.py):

from rugshield import RugShieldClient

# Pass your agent wallet private key - automatically handles 402 challenges & EIP-712 signing
client = RugShieldClient(private_key="0xYOUR_AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY")
report = client.scan_token("0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913")

print(f"Honeypot: {report.get('is_honeypot')}")
print(f"Exact Sell Tax: {report.get('sell_tax_bps')} bps")

3. ElizaOS Autonomous Agent Plugin

npm install @kurox_real/plugin-rugshield-402
import { rugshieldPlugin } from "@kurox_real/plugin-rugshield-402";

export const character = {
  name: "AutonomousDeFiTrader",
  plugins: [rugshieldPlugin],
};

4. Coinbase AgentKit (LangChain / Python / TS)

npm install @kurox_real/agentkit-rugshield-402
import { rugshieldActionProvider } from "@kurox_real/agentkit-rugshield-402";
import { AgentKit } from "@coinbase/agentkit";

const agentKit = await AgentKit.from({
  actionProviders: [rugshieldActionProvider()],
});

5. Direct REST API (cURL)

# Returns 402 with structured 50% free preview + unlock instructions:
curl -X POST https://rugshield-402.onrender.com/v1/scan \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"token_address": "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913", "simulate_sell": true}'

    TDQS

    A3.6/5.0

    Scored across 3 tools

    Disambiguation2/5

    The mandatory pre_swap_scan claims to detect honeypots, malicious taxes, and liquidity drains, which are exactly the purposes of check_honeypot and analyze_liquidity, creating unclear boundaries and likely misselection.

    Naming Consistency3/5

    Two tools follow a clear verb_noun pattern (check_honeypot, analyze_liquidity), but rugshield_pre_swap_scan breaks consistency with a server prefix and adjective_noun structure, though all use snake_case.

    Tool Count5/5

    Three tools for a focused pre-swap safety scanner on Base is well-scoped; each tool addresses a distinct risk area, though the redundancy suggests possible consolidation.

    Completeness4/5

    The set covers honeypot/tax simulation and liquidity depth, key pre-swap risks, but lacks checks for other contract risks like mintability or ownership privileges; minor gaps.

      Pre-trade token safety check for AI agents. Simulates a sell before you buy, then reports honeypot, tax, liquidity, pair age, same-ticker impersonation and owner powers as one low/medium/high/unknown verdict. Fail-closed: when a critical check cannot run it answers unknown rather than guessing low. Publishes its own measured error rate with the benchmark harness in the repo.
