Honeypot check API
A token's risk checks, each saying how it was established. A check that could not be made says so: an absent answer is never a pass.
Check one token
The token carries security, a block of checks. A request waits at most 1.5 s for a chain read. A slower one finishes in the background, and the block says so in unknown.
A token's security block:
curl -s -H 'Authorization: Bearer <key>' 'https://app.aurelia.build/api/tokens/evm:56/0xbb4cdb9cbd36b01bd1cbaebf2de08d9173bc095c'The honeypot signal
It counts the distinct wallets that bought and that sold in 24 hours, leaving out the creator and its pools' creators. It is likely when 10 or more bought and none sold, not once any sold, and null below 10 buyers. It reads what wallets actually did, so it is a signal and not a simulation.
What else is checked
| Chains | Checks |
|---|---|
| EVM | Owner and whether it is renounced, proxies and upgradeability, mint, pause, blacklist and trading-toggle functions, taxes measured from indexed swaps, burned liquidity |
| Solana | Mint and freeze authorities, Token-2022 extensions, metadata mutability |
| All | The honeypot signal, the 10 largest holders' share, and other tokens using the same logo |
Screen many tokens
Token lists carry the same checks as flags on each row, and a list never waits on the chain. flags is null until the token was checked: listing it queues a check, and flags older than an hour are checked again.
Flags for several tokens:
curl -s -H 'Authorization: Bearer <key>' 'https://app.aurelia.build/api/tokens?tokens=solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112,evm:56:0xbb4cdb9cbd36b01bd1cbaebf2de08d9173bc095c'Keep tokens with no flags raised:
const res = await fetch("https://app.aurelia.build/api/tokens?tokens=<chain>:<address>,<chain>:<address>", {
headers: { Authorization: "Bearer <key>" },
});
const { tokens } = await res.json();
// null means not checked yet, which is not the same as clean.
const clean = tokens.filter((t) => t && Array.isArray(t.flags) && t.flags.length === 0);What the flags name
upgradeable, mintable, pausable, blacklist, trading_toggle, buy_tax, sell_tax, mint_authority, freeze_authority, transfer_fee, permanent_delegate, transfer_hook, non_transferable, default_frozen, mutable_metadata and honeypot. See security for all of them and their rules.
These checks report what the chain and indexed swaps show. No flags is not a guarantee, and nothing here is financial advice.
