Agent Risk Score (v2)
| Input | From official docs | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Who holds the keys | The agent trades with a session key your wallet registers as a delegate; it can open, close and modify positions but can't withdraw USDC from your account, grant allowances or add delegates, and you can revoke it any time source | 20 / 20 |
| Spending limits enforced outside the agent | A policy enforced inside every trading tool caps leverage, collateral and size per trade, daily notional, open positions and daily loss; the AI can't edit it, and on the hosted connector you set it by signing with your wallet (default preset: 3x, $250 per trade, $100 daily loss) source | 20 / 20 |
| Human approval | Optional: a confirmation is required only above a notional you set (off by default), for bulk closes and for vault moves; otherwise it depends on your AI client asking before tools run source | 8 / 15 |
| Sending funds to new addresses | The session key can't send USDC out of your account; margin withdrawals always pay your own wallet source | 15 / 15 |
| Transaction preview or simulation | Every trade is quoted before it executes (entry with spread, fees, liquidation price and the policy verdict); a quote expires after 30 seconds and executes once source | 10 / 10 |
| Open source and audits | Closed: no public source code in our listing source | 0 / 10 |
| Incident record (last 12 months) | No incident naming this tool in our incident tracker for the last 12 months, and every scored input links an official source source | 10 / 10 |
| Total | 83% of the points we could check | 83 / 100 |
Safety score
| Input | From our listing | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Can it place live orders unattended? | Every trade is quoted first, but a confirmation is required only above a notional you set (off by default) and for vault moves; otherwise whether you approve each fill depends on your AI client's tool prompts and the conversation source | 10 / 25 |
| Order approval or confirmation options | Approval/confirmation step documented | 15 / 15 |
| Paper, demo or testnet mode | Testnet mode (--network=testnet) trades test USDC from a faucet, so nothing is real money (official docs) source | 15 / 15 |
| Withdrawal permission needed or allowed | The agent's session key can't withdraw USDC from your account, grant allowances or add delegates; margin it withdraws only pays your own wallet (official docs) source | 15 / 15 |
| Scoped keys, permission scopes or IP whitelisting | Scoped access (scopes, read-only mode, dedicated or separate account) | 10 / 10 |
| Open source or audited | No public source code in our listing | 0 / 10 |
