Transaction Preflight · PAID MCP TOOL

simulate_transaction

Simulates an unsigned Base transaction before signing and returns gas estimates, decoded top-level calls, approval warnings, and a machine-readable risk signal.

When an agent should call it

Read-only RPC simulation only. It never signs, holds keys, or broadcasts; internal token state changes are not exposed by standard RPC and are not claimed as decoded movements.

Input: Unsigned Base or Base Sepolia transaction fields (from, to, value in wei, calldata)

Price: $0.02 USDC per call, paid in USDC via x402 on Base.

MCP connection: one-time setup, then call simulate_transaction on each needed workflow.
