health_check

Check ForgeMesh Anomaly Tracker API health and uptime.

anomaly_scan

Scan a blockchain for sequence anomalies — unusual patterns of whale movements, exchange flows, bridge activity, and stablecoin mints/burns. Returns a story label, anomaly score (0-100), novelty level, and the peak anomalous symbol window. Costs $0.05 USDC on Base mainnet.

token_scan

Best-effort anomaly scan for a single token — scores recent transfer patterns for unusual activity and returns source status plus coverage notes. Pass a contract address or well-known symbol. Costs $0.03 USDC on Base mainnet.

whale_alerts

Get recent whale movements, CEX inflows/outflows, bridge activity, and stablecoin mints/burns from monitored addresses (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, Bybit, major bridges, Tether, Circle). Costs $0.02 USDC on Base mainnet.

address_scan
