DeFi Guard MCP

The safety layer that checks a DeFi transaction or token before your agent (or you) signs — on Base L2.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

aave_position_health

Check the live health of an Aave V3 position on Base: health factor, total collateral/debt (USD), LTV and liquidation threshold. A health factor below 1.0 means the position is liquidatable.

quote_swap

Real exact-input swap quote on Base via Uniswap V3 QuoterV2. Tries all fee tiers (0.01%, 0.05%, 0.3%, 1%) and returns the best executable output. Amounts are human units (e.g. '0.5').

token_risk_snapshot

Liquidity risk snapshot of an ERC-20 on Base: metadata plus REAL market depth measured by round-trip quotes (WETH -> token -> WETH) at two trade sizes. High round-trip loss = thin/illiquid or high-fee market; a token you cannot exit is a risk regardless of its chart.

token_safety_screen

Pre-trade safety screen for an ERC-20 on Base — the 'is this safe to buy/approve BEFORE I sign' check. Verifies you can actually SELL it back (honeypot detection), measures the real round-trip cost (buy+sell fees/tax), and reports whether ownership is renounced (a live owner can often change taxes,

scan_dangerous_capabilities

Scan a token/contract's DEPLOYED BYTECODE on Base for owner-only powers that can harm holders — mint, pause, blacklist, adjustable fees/taxes, max-tx limits, trading toggles, and proxy upgradeability. Flags the PRESENCE of each capability (a selector match in the code), i.e. what the operator COULD

approval_risk

Assess the risk of an existing ERC-20 approval on Base BEFORE it can be abused: reads the live allowance an owner has granted a spender, flags UNLIMITED approvals (the allowance-drain vector — a compromised or malicious spender can pull up to the allowance), and reports whether the spender is a cont

// known CVEs in dependencies1 high

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

6/6 tools missing one or more hints — aave_position_health (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); quote_swap (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); token_risk_snapshot (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +3 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Tool handlers catch errors

5/6 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (83%)

Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 1 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.0.0 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Domain consistency

npm scope @iniit doesn't match GitHub owner iinniitt

Use the same org name across GitHub, npm, and your homepage so users can verify the publisher.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 6 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
