"""contract-guard engine β€” pre-interaction risk signals for an EVM contract/token.
Pure JSON-RPC (no signing, no upstream cost). Given a contract address it reports:
- is it a contract (eth_getCode) or an EOA / self-destructed
- upgradeable proxy detection (EIP-1967 implementation + admin slots)
- ERC20 metadata (name / symbol / decimals / totalSupply via eth_call)
- a risk score + human-readable flags an agent can act on before interacting
Why agents pay for this: the on-chain-data category is the busiest on the x402
discovery layer, but it's all raw RPC proxies. This adds a security verdict
(mutable-logic proxy = rug vector, non-standard token, dead address) on top.
