token-safety

token-safety is a skill for Claude Code from metis-rwa/mcp. It costs 73 tokens per session (693 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for checking whether the issuer of a tokenized asset can freeze, seize, pause, transfer, burn, or create tokens. A tokenized asset is a blockchain token meant to represent something else, such as a stock.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when assessing token safety, issuer authority, account freezes, selling restrictions, supply changes, or what happens if the issuer disappears.
Why use it?
It turns hidden issuer controls into a clear explanation of what a holder can actually lose or be prevented from doing.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

token-safety scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

What the issuer can do to a holder

Someone is asking what they are exposed to if they hold this token. Answer with what the chain says, not with reassurance and not with alarm.

Read the controls first

Call get_token_controls with the symbol or mint. It returns mint authority, freeze authority, and every Token-2022 extension, each marked:

  • !! the issuer can move, freeze, or block a holder's position
  • ! economics or displayed balances can change
  • . informational

Report every !! finding in plain language. The ones that matter most:

  • Permanent delegate: tokens can be transferred or burned out of any account without the holder signing anything.
  • Freeze authority: any account can be frozen, which blocks selling and redemption from that account.
  • Pausable: transfers can be halted chain-wide.
  • Transfer hook: every transfer runs through a program that can reject it, which is how an allowlist is enforced. Say whether a hook program is actually set, since the extension can be present with none configured.
  • Default account state frozen: new accounts cannot transact until the issuer thaws them. The token is permissioned by default.
  • Mint authority: supply is not capped and can be issued at any time.

Then say what it means

Give the honest reading, which is usually not a scandal. A redeemable asset-backed token needs most of these powers: an issuer that cannot mint cannot honour a new deposit, and one that cannot freeze cannot comply with a court order or a sanctions list. The right conclusion is almost never "this is a scam" and almost never "this is fine". It is: here is who can act on your position, and here is what you are trusting them not to do.

Never call a token a scam or a rug on the strength of its extensions alone. Never tell someone to buy or sell. If asked for a verdict, give the conditions instead: what would have to be true about the issuer for these powers to be acceptable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
