Collar Guardrail

Deterministic pre-trade risk layer for AI agents on Robinhood Chain.

Collar evaluates proposed trades before execution and returns allow / warn / deny with reasons, a 0–100 risk score, and a tamper-evident SHA-256 audit hash.

Overview

Collar sits between an autonomous trading agent and the chain as a deterministic pre-trade checkpoint. Every proposed trade is scored against live oracle prices, market-hours rules, tier-based limits, slippage bounds, and contract-safety signals before it is allowed to proceed.

The result is a single, auditable verdict — never a probabilistic guess.

MCP Transport: streamable-http | Protocol: 2025-06-18 | Auth: none (fixed Tier 1)

Installation

Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "collar-guardrail": {
      "url": "https://api.collarguardrail.com/mcp-http/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Verify:

bash
curl -X POST https://api.collarguardrail.com/mcp-http/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/list","id":1}'
Available Tools
Tool	Purpose
evaluate_trade	Pre-trade risk check at fixed Tier 1 ($5,000 ceiling). Returns allow / warn / deny with reasons and audit hash. Honeypot findings (severity=danger) force a DENY.
evaluate_trade_paid	Same as evaluate_trade, gated by an x402 payment. Evaluated as Tier 2 ($25,000 ceiling). Call without payment_proof to receive the challenge; settle on-chain; retry with the proof.
check_token_safety	Honeypot / contract safety check for any ERC-20. When severity=danger, evaluate_trade auto-DENYs.
simulate_balance	Read-only balance simulation via eth_call state override
get_supported_assets	Official Robinhood Chain asset registry
verify_audit_trail	Verify the hash-chain integrity of past decisions
Call get_supported_assets first to resolve a symbol to its canonical
contract address. A mismatched address is treated as a fake-token attempt
and denied.

The free evaluate_trade is capped at Tier 1 ($5,000). If you need Tier 2
($25,000) without holding COLR, use evaluate_trade_paid — the on-chain
x402 payment is the credential.

Capabilities
Pricing

Chainlink oracle prices for 34+ Stock Tokens on Robinhood Chain

Uniswap V4 fallback when the oracle is stale, paused, or unconfigured

No fabricated fallback — if neither oracle nor V4 yields a price, verdict is deny

10-second V4 price cache

US Market Hours

Full US holiday calendar with observed-on-Friday/Monday shift

Early close on Thanksgiving Friday and Christmas Eve

Policy Enforcement

Tier system (REST API): 1,000 / 2,500 / 5,000 COLR → $5K / $25K / $100K limits

Per-tier rate limiting

Cluster-based rate limit and daily-loss guard (keyed on wallet fingerprint)

Slippage / MEV guard (hard 500 bps floor)

Idempotency via request_id (5-minute cache)

Global kill switch, contract mismatch detection, per-wallet blocklist

Contract Safety

Honeypot detection: bytecode scan, owner check, sell simulation via eth_call

Auto-DENY: when severity=danger, the verdict is deny regardless of
other checks — a hard stop.

GoPlus intelligence for unregistered tokens (buy/sell tax, mintable,
proxy, ownership reclaim).

Excessive tax (buy or sell > 10%) triggers an automatic deny via
GoPlus when allow_unregistered=true is passed to the request.

Auth & Infrastructure

JWT authentication via EIP-191 wallet signature (REST API)

Auth rate limiting per IP (20 req/min)

WalletConnect v2 + EIP-6963 wallet discovery

200+ token registry

Hash-chained audit trail (audit_hash + audit_seq)

Observability

Public live status page — uptime, dependency health, known issues

Public latency dashboard — p50/p95/p99 per endpoint and per MCP tool

Public methodology — how the 0–100 score is computed

Public audit-chain verification
