7 LAYERS.
1000 POINTS.
Seven independent analysis layers each contribute weighted deductions to a 0–1000 composite score. The score is the geometric mean of layer trusts — one bad source can’t hide; one false-positive can’t flip a clean token to RUG. The Safe Gate overrides on critical hard flags (LP open, honeypot, mint/freeze active, deceptive name).
Liquidity & Market
DexScreenerReal-time price, volume, liquidity depth, transaction counts across 5m, 1h, 6h, 24h. Near-zero liquidity is a Safe Gate trigger. Volume/liquidity ratio feeds wash trading detection.
Token Audit
RugCheckLP burn/lock status, metadata mutability, mint & freeze authority, bundler detection, sniper activity. Solana-native token-audit signal.
Contract Security
GoPlusHoneypot simulation, hidden fees, transfer restrictions, blacklist functions, sell tax / buy tax, anti-whale rules. Honeypot detection is an immediate Safe Gate trigger.
On-Chain Truth
Helius RPCDirect Solana RPC: top 20 holders (filtered for LP/foundation wallets), token supply, mint authority, creator wallet. The ground-truth layer that bypasses any aggregator.
Holder Distribution
SolscanHolder count, on-chain token age, recent transfer history (powers the live Insider Watch tab), 24h trades / unique traders. Catches pre-rug concentration setups.
Chart Intelligence
In-house Chart EngineOHLCV candle analysis across 5m / 1h / 6h / 24h. Detects parabolic pumps, blow-off tops, staircase manipulation, wick traps, dead-cat bounces. Skipped gracefully if candle data is missing.
Cross-Validation
InternalDetects disagreements between layers (e.g. LP burn claimed by RugCheck but LP program still holds tokens per Helius). Disagreement triggers a 0.7–0.9× penalty so a single suspicious source can’t mask a hidden risk.
SAFE GATE
Hard verdict overrides on top of the numeric score. Some risks reflect attack surfaces that can never be soft-unlocked by maturity or holder count — when one of them fires, the gate keeps the verdict at DANGER or RUG no matter how high the rest of the score lands. The score band tells you how a token looks; the Safe Gate tells you when it doesn’t matter.
