Hermes skill tap with a Base token rug-check skill that simulates buys and sells before you trade

What true402 Skills does

The tap currently lists one skill, true402-token-safety. It runs a real on-chain buy and sell simulation that proves whether a token can be sold, then checks liquidity depth and contract structure and returns a single avoid, caution or ok verdict. Daily checks are free, with no wallet or API key.

Heavier use is paid per call over the x402 protocol, at roughly $0.005 to $0.01 in USDC on Base. The client signs locally and refuses any single charge above $0.10. If you want the wider catalog, the README points to an MCP server, started with npx -y @true402.dev/mcp-server, that exposes all 17 true402 stalls to Hermes as tools: token safety, DeFi yields, prediction markets, screenshots, SEO and GEO audit, web extraction and LLM inference. The server discovers stalls from the live catalog, so new ones appear without an update.
