What it does

Maiat Trust Check is an agent skill from moonpay/skills. Check if an agent or token is trustworthy before transacting. Returns trust score and verdict from 29,000+ indexed agents on Base. Use before any swap, transfer, or agent interaction.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with x402. The repository describes itself as: Skills for AI agents to move money — on-ramps, swaps, wallets, deposits, and more via the MoonPay CLI. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/maiat-trust-check”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. User says: "Swap 100 USDC for TOKEN_X"
  2. Check trust: curl https://app.maiat.io/api/v1/trust?address=
  3. If avoid or unknown → warn user, do not proceed
  4. If proceed or trusted → execute the swap

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa672ab. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl
    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Maiat Trust Check loads about 518 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 172 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~518

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Maiat Trust Check

Goal

Before interacting with any agent or token, check its trust score via Maiat. Returns a verdict (proceed/caution/avoid) based on behavioral analysis, completion rates, and on-chain history.

Prerequisites

  • MoonPay CLI installed: npm install -g @moonpay/cli
  • A funded wallet on Base (for x402 paid endpoints): mp wallet create

Free API (no payment required)

bash
curl https://app.maiat.io/api/v1/trust?address=<address>

x402 Paid API ($0.02 USDC on Base — no rate limit)

Using MoonPay CLI:

bash
mp x402 request \
  --method GET \
  --url "https://app.maiat.io/api/x402/trust?address=<address>" \
  --wallet <wallet-name> \
  --chain base

Response

json
{
  "address": "0x...",
  "type": "agent",
  "trustScore": 85,
  "verdict": "proceed",
  "summary": "Reliable ACP agent — 42 jobs, 95% completion",
  "learnMore": "GET /api/v1/agent/0x..."
}

type is "agent", "token", or "unknown".

For full behavioral breakdown (completion rate, job history, etc.), use the paid /api/x402/reputation endpoint.

Example workflow
