WalletGuard

What it does

Wallet risk scoring and pre-transaction AML, sanctions, counterparty-risk, and crypto compliance screening for autonomous finance agents. Scores one wallet from caller-provided sanctions hits, exposure tags, counterparty labels, transfers, and fund-source context; returns a 0-100 risk score, evidence per signal, and a concrete action. Deterministic preflight only: no chain data is fetched and no screening result is fabricated.

• ✓Sanctions, exposure & fund-source signals
• ✓0–100 risk score with severity level
• ✓Evidence-backed findings, never fabricated

How to call it over x402

1. 1. Send the request. The first unpaid call returns HTTP 402 with an x402 payment challenge — $0.10, USDC on Base, and the recipient.
2. 2. Pay per call. Your x402 client signs the USDC payment and retries automatically — no API key, no account, no subscription. New to x402?
3. 3. Read the result. HTTP 200 returns the computed values plus evidence-backed findings.

With the x402 fetch client (Node / TypeScript)

import { wrapFetchWithPayment } from "@x402/fetch";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.AGENT_WALLET_KEY);
const pay = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, account); // USDC on Base

const res = await pay("https://hermesplant.com/api/agent-services/walletguard/score", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "content-type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
  "wallet": "0x9999999999999999999999999999999999999999",
  "sanctionsHits": [
    "OFAC-SDN-9999"
  ],
  "exposures": [
    "sanctions:ofac",
    "other"
  ],
  "labels": [
    "high-risk:ofac-listed"
  ]
}),
});

const result = await res.json();

Inspect the 402 with curl

curl -i -X POST https://hermesplant.com/api/agent-services/walletguard/score \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"wallet":"0x9999999999999999999999999999999999999999","sanctionsHits":["OFAC-SDN-9999"],"exposures":["sanctions:ofac","other"],"labels":["high-risk:ofac-listed"]}'
# → HTTP/1.1 402 Payment Required  (x402 challenge: price, USDC asset, Base network, recipient)
# → sign the USDC-on-Base payment and retry to receive HTTP 200

Prefer no wallet? Get a free API key (250 calls/mo) and send it as X-API-Key instead of signing an x402 payment — the same call, no crypto, ideal for looping over many records.

Prefer zero code? This endpoint is also exposed as a tool on the Hermes Plant MCP server, so an MCP-capable agent can call it with its own x402 wallet.
