RugCheck AI MCP Server

On-chain Solana token safety: screens a token for rug pulls, honeypots and mint/freeze authority traps before an agent trades.

Documentation

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ RugCheck AI โ€” On-chain Token Safety for Solana AI Agents

version license MCP python transport CI

A lightweight MCP server that reads a Solana token's mint directly from the chain to screen for the common rug & honeypot traps before your agent trades โ€” active mint/freeze authority and dangerous Token-2022 extensions (permanent delegate, transfer hooks, non-transferable, pausable) โ€” then, for tokens that pass, builds the buy as an unsigned Jupiter transaction carrying a small Jito tip for faster inclusion. You sign it; the server never holds keys.

Quickstart (30 seconds)

No install, no API key. Point your agent at the remote endpoint:

https://web-production-58d585.up.railway.app/mcp

Then ask one question before any buy:

scan_token("DezXAZ8z7PnrnRJjz3wXBoRgixCa6xjnB7YaB1pPB263")   # BONK
โ†’ { verdict: "SAFE", safety_score: 100, sellable: true, risks: ["no red flags found"] }

SAFE โ†’ clear. CAUTION โ†’ read the risks. DANGER โ†’ don't buy. That's the whole loop.

Three real mainnet tokens, one scan_token call each (scanned 2026-06-17 โ€” re-run to verify, live state changes):

TokenVerdictWhy
BONKSAFE ยท 100authority renounced, liquid, sellable โ€” no red flags
USDCCAUTION ยท 70issuer keeps an active mint and freeze authority โ€” your balance can be frozen
fresh pump token 24tFโ€ฆi9pumpDANGER ยท 20no sell route (honeypot), 100% held by one wallet, $0 liquidity

The honeypot is the one that matters: you could buy it and never sell. RugCheck AI flags it before your agent spends a cent โ€” even though the token is too new to be indexed anywhere else. Even USDC comes back CAUTION, not SAFE, because the issuer can still freeze your balance โ€” the verdict tells you the truth, not a marketing label.

Tools

Screening

  • scan_token โ€” full safety report in one call: authority, Token-2022 traps, honeypot, liquidity & holder concentration โ†’ SAFE/CAUTION/DANGER + a 0โ€“100 score
  • is_safe โ€” quick yes/no gate: one boolean before you trade
  • verify_token_safety โ€” on-chain audit: mint/freeze authority + Token-2022 traps + live market
  • check_authorities โ€” mint / freeze authority and extension detection
  • simulate_sell โ€” can the token actually be sold? (honeypot check)
  • simulate_trade โ€” full round-trip (buy then sell back): real entry/exit cost & round-trip loss %
  • check_liquidity โ€” DEX liquidity, 24h volume, age, buys/sells
  • holders_breakdown โ€” top-holder concentration (dump risk)
  • token_age โ€” freshness + real trading activity
  • rug_forecast โ€” heuristic rug ETA: probability + urgency window + factors
  • scammer_dna โ€” intent score (0โ€“100): how much the token's structure looks like a deliberate scam
  • check_deployer โ€” the wallets that hold power over the token
  • compare_tokens โ€” rank a basket of tokens safest-first
  • batch_scan โ€” scan up to 10 tokens at once, one report each

Execution

  • execute_safe_swap โ€” re-screens the mint, then builds a Jito-tipped Jupiter swap (unsigned); refuses tokens that scan DANGER

Why

Most agents trade Solana tokens blind. RugCheck AI calls getAccountInfo on the mint and reads the authorities and Token-2022 extensions itself, so you get a real verdict on a fresh launch instead of unknown โ€” and a live mint or freeze authority is flagged before you buy, not after.

Use it when

Your agent needs to answer, before it spends a cent:

  • Is this Solana token safe to buy โ€” or is it a rug pull?
  • Is this a honeypot โ€” will I actually be able to sell after I buy?
  • Does the mint have an active freeze / mint authority that can trap or dilute me?
  • Is there a hidden Token-2022 trap (permanent delegate, transfer hook) that can drain me?
  • Pre-trade screening / token due-diligence for an autonomous trading agent.

Built for AI trading agents, snipers and bots that buy SPL / Token-2022 tokens and need a fast on-chain rug check before entering โ€” then a screened Jupiter route once a token clears.

FAQ

How do I check if a Solana token is safe to buy? Call scan_token(mint) โ€” one call returns a SAFE / CAUTION / DANGER verdict covering mint/freeze authority, Token-2022 traps, honeypot (sellability), liquidity and holder concentration, plus a 0โ€“100 safety score.

How do I detect a honeypot before buying? simulate_sell(mint) checks whether a live sell route exists โ€” a token with no route is effectively a honeypot even when nothing on-chain formally blocks selling.

How do I check holder concentration / whale dump risk? holders_breakdown(mint) reports the largest wallets and what share of supply they control โ€” high concentration means one holder can crash the price on you.

How do I know if a token is a rug pull? rug_forecast(mint) gives a heuristic rug probability and urgency window from real signals (authority, Token-2022 traps, concentration, sell pressure, age). check_authorities and check_deployer show exactly who holds power over the token.

Does it work on fresh / newly launched tokens? Yes โ€” it reads the mint directly on-chain (getAccountInfo), so you get a real verdict on a token too new to be indexed elsewhere. token_age shows freshness and real trading activity.

Does it touch my wallet or sign anything? No. Screening is read-only; execute_safe_swap only builds an UNSIGNED transaction for you to sign โ€” the server never holds keys, never signs, never sends.

Is it free? Do I need an API key? Remote server, no install, no API key. Point your agent at the endpoint and call the tools.

Status

v1.2.0 โ€” working, actively developed, CI-tested. Open source, auditable โ€” the screening tools are read-only (getAccountInfo); execute_safe_swap only builds an unsigned transaction for you to sign.
