SaucerSwap Arbitrage

SuspiciousAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This instruction-only skill is transparent about DeFi arbitrage, but it tells an agent how to execute mainnet token swaps without clear user-confirmation, trade-limit, or contract-verification boundaries.

Treat this as a high-risk financial automation skill. It is acceptable for quote research, but do not let it execute swaps unless you independently verify contract addresses, use a limited wallet, set strict trade and loss limits, and approve each transaction manually.

Findings (3)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

If the agent is given wallet or transaction tools, it could attempt trades that move or lose user funds without sufficiently clear guardrails.

Why it was flagged

The skill directs the agent toward executing financial swaps on mainnet, but the artifacts do not require explicit user confirmation, bounded trade size, stop-loss limits, or dry-run validation before submitting transactions.

Recommendation

Require explicit user approval for every transaction, verify expected inputs/outputs and fees, set maximum trade and loss limits, and default to quote-only or simulation mode unless the user opts into execution.

What this means

Using the skill for execution would require signing transactions with an account that holds funds.

Why it was flagged

The skill implies use of a user wallet or Hedera signing authority. This is expected for swap execution, but users should recognize that wallet approval grants financial authority.

Recommendation

Use a dedicated wallet with limited funds, review every wallet prompt, and do not provide private keys or broad signing authority to the agent.

What this means

Relying on stale or incorrect contract details could lead to failed transactions or loss of funds.

Why it was flagged

For a mainnet DeFi skill that provides contract addresses and transaction guidance, lack of source provenance or a homepage makes it harder to verify that the addresses and workflows are official or current.

Recommendation

Independently verify all contract addresses, token IDs, and SaucerSwap API endpoints from official SaucerSwap and Hedera sources before using the skill for execution.
