Terms of Service

What Aegis is

Aegis is an open-source safety analysis tool for DeFi transactions. It scans smart contracts for known exploit patterns, simulates transactions on forked chains, and provides on-chain safety enforcement through smart contracts on Base.

Aegis runs as an MCP server on your local machine. It helps AI agents make more informed decisions about DeFi transactions. That is all it does.

What Aegis is not

Aegis is not financial advice. It is not an investment advisor, broker, or fiduciary. The safety scores, risk assessments, and analysis results produced by Aegis are automated outputs from pattern-matching and simulation. They are not recommendations to buy, sell, or hold any asset.

No guarantees

No security tool can catch every exploit. New attack vectors appear regularly. Aegis may produce false positives or false negatives. Contract analysis may be incomplete. Simulations may not reflect actual on-chain conditions at the time of execution.

Aegis does not guarantee the safety of any transaction, contract, or token. You should never rely solely on Aegis (or any single tool) to determine whether a transaction is safe.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for your own transactions. You decide what to trade, when to trade, and how much to risk. Aegis provides information to help you make those decisions, but the decisions are yours. You assume all risk associated with your use of DeFi protocols.

On-chain contracts

Aegis deploys smart contracts on Base mainnet that collect a 5 basis point fee on protected transactions. These contracts are immutable once deployed. They operate independently on the blockchain and cannot be modified, paused, or reversed by anyone, including the Aegis team. Your interaction with these contracts is governed by the contract code itself.

Open source license

Aegis is provided "as is" under the MIT License, without warranty of any kind, express or implied. This includes, without limitation, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. See the full license text for details.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Aegis contributors shall not be liable for any damages arising from the use of Aegis, including but not limited to lost funds, failed transactions, missed opportunities, or reliance on analysis results. DeFi carries inherent risk. Use Aegis at your own risk.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of Aegis after changes constitutes acceptance.
