Installation
# Install from crates.io
Or build from source:

Compliance Features
Scope includes enterprise-grade compliance and risk analysis. All compliance commands live under scope compliance:
Risk Assessment
# Basic risk score
# Detailed breakdown with evidence
# Export for compliance records (format auto-detected from extension: .json, .yaml, .md)
Pattern Detection
# Detect structuring, layering, and velocity anomalies
# Time-range analysis (default: 30d)
Available pattern types: structuring, layering, integration, velocity, round-numbers.
Transaction Tracing
# Trace fund flow through multiple hops (default depth: 3)
Compliance Reporting
# Generate a compliance report for a specific jurisdiction (output: markdown)
# Detailed SAR report
Available jurisdictions: us, eu, uk, switzerland, singapore.
Report types: summary (default), detailed, sar, travel-rule.
Compliance output formats: table (default), json, yaml, markdown.
Note: Set ETHERSCAN_API_KEY environment variable for full compliance analysis. Without it, basic scoring is used.
Token Crawling
Crawl DEX data for any token by address or name. Supports searching by symbol, displaying ASCII charts, and generating markdown reports:
# Crawl by contract address
# Search by token name or symbol
# Specify time period (1h, 24h, 7d, 30d)
# Generate a markdown report
# Disable ASCII charts, output as JSON
# Skip interactive prompts (use first match)
# Save the selected token as an alias for future use
Token Discovery
Browse trending and boosted tokens from DexScreener without knowing a symbol or address:
# Featured token profiles (default)
# Recently boosted tokens
# Top boosted tokens (most active)
# Filter by chain
# JSON or CSV output
Sources: profiles (featured), boosts (recent), top-boosts (most active). No API key required.
Data Export
Export address history or portfolio data to JSON or CSV:
# Export address transaction history
# Export as CSV with date range and limit
# Export portfolio data
Interactive Mode
Launch a REPL where context persists between commands. Interactive mode provides access to all commands plus the live monitor:
# Uses solana chain automatically
# Launches a real-time TUI dashboard with price/volume charts
Available interactive commands:
address/addr-- Analyze a blockchain addresstx/transaction-- Analyze a transactioncrawl/token-- Crawl token analyticsmonitor/mon-- Live TUI dashboard with four layout presets, widget toggles, price/volume/candlestick charts, alerts, CSV export, and auto-pauseportfolio/port-- Portfolio management (add, remove, list, summary)tokens/aliases-- Token alias management (add, remove, list, recent)setup/config-- Configuration commandschain-- Set or show current chainformat-- Set or show output format (table, json, csv)limit-- Set or show transaction limit+tokens/+txs-- Toggle token/transaction display flags for address commandtrace/decode-- Toggle trace/decode flags for tx commandctx/context-- Show current session contextclear/reset-- Reset context to defaultshelp/?-- Show helpexit/quit-- Exit interactive mode
Live Monitor
The monitor launches a real-time TUI dashboard. You can start it two ways:
# Direct from the command line (no interactive mode needed)
# Or from interactive mode
Direct-command flags: --chain / -c, --layout / -l, --refresh / -r, --scale / -s, --color-scheme, --export / -e.
The monitor supports four layout presets that can be switched at runtime or configured in config.yaml:
| Preset | Description |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | Charts top, gauges middle, transaction feed bottom (default) |
| Chart | Full-width candles (~85%), minimal stats overlay |
| Feed | Transaction log takes priority, small metrics + buy/sell on top |
| Compact | Price sparkline and metrics only, for small terminals |
The monitor automatically selects the best layout for your terminal size (responsive breakpoints). Manual layout switching disables auto-selection until you press A.
Monitor features:
- Price/volume charts: Line, Candlestick, and Volume Profile modes
- Six timeframes: 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d
- Log/linear scale: Toggle Y-axis scaling for wide price ranges
- Color schemes: Green/Red (default), Blue/Orange, Monochrome
- Holder count: On-chain holder count (when API key is configured)
- Liquidity depth: Per-pair liquidity breakdown across DEXes
- Alerts: Configurable price min/max, whale detection, and volume spike thresholds
- CSV export: Record live data to
./scope-exports/with a single keypress - Auto-pause: Optionally pause data fetching while interacting

Configuration
On first run, Scope detects that no configuration file exists and offers to launch the interactive setup wizard. The wizard walks you through configuring API keys, RPC endpoints, and output preferences, then saves the result to ~/.config/scope/config.yaml.
You can revisit the setup wizard at any time without editing the config file directly:
# Re-run the full setup wizard
# View current configuration status
# Configure a single API key
# Reset configuration to defaults
The generated config file follows this structure:
chains:
# EVM-compatible chains
ethereum_rpc: "https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/YOUR_KEY"
bsc_rpc: "https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org"
# Non-EVM chains

tron_api: "https://api.trongrid.io"
# Block explorer API keys

Or use just:
Peg & Order Book Health (scope market)
The scope market summary command fetches level-2 order book data from CEX (Binance, Biconomy) or DEX (Ethereum, Solana) venues and reports peg, book health, volume, and execution checks:
- Peg: Target, best bid/ask deviation (%), mid price, spread
- Volume: 24h quote volume (Binance ticker, DEX analytics; omitted for Biconomy)
- Execution: Simulated 10k USDT buy/sell slippage or "insufficient liquidity"
- Order book: Ask/bid levels with depth (base and quote amounts)
- Health checks: No sells below peg, bid/ask ratio, minimum levels and depth per side
- Output: Text (default) or JSON
- Tunable thresholds: All health-check thresholds are configurable. Defaults (min-levels=6, min-depth=3000, peg-range=0.001, bid/ask ratio 0.2–5.0x) originated from the PUSD Hummingbot config—override for other markets.
# Repeated runs (default: every 60s for 1h)
just summary invokes scope market summary under the hood.
Token Health Suite (scope token-health / scope health)
Combines DEX analytics (crawl) with optional market/order book summary for stablecoins:
With --with-market, order book data is fetched from the selected venue (--market-venue): binance (default), biconomy, eth (Ethereum DEX), solana (Solana DEX). CEX pair format: binance=USDCUSDT, biconomy=USDC_USDT. DEX venues use on-chain liquidity from the selected chain.
Agent-Oriented Output (--ai)
Use --ai to emit markdown-formatted output to stdout instead of tables or JSON. Useful for LLM/agent consumption and parsing:
--ai affects all commands that support output formatting (address, tx, crawl, discover, portfolio, export, token-health).
Additional market options:
--report path.md: Save markdown report to file (one-shot or final report in repeat mode)--csv path.csv: Append time-series of peg/spread/depth to CSV (repeat mode only)
