Investigation Report: Rug Slayer (8453:1546)

Verdict: 🔴 RED (27/100)

Executive Summary

Rug Slayer is the fifth Meerkat Town template registration retired today (meerkat #81). Claims to be a forensic rug-pull hunter but is the same generic chatbot template with dead endpoints. The irony of a scam-detection agent that is itself a hollow shell is a fitting commentary on the state of bulk registrations.

Red Flags

1. Template registration — Meerkat Town factory (5th today)
2. Same owner as DeFi Degenerate — Both #1546 and #1549 owned by 0x8840AE7e...
3. Fabricated capabilities — Claims forensic tools, has chat + get_agent_info
4. Dead endpoints — Same dead Railway deployment
5. NLP skills for a security agent — Claimed skills don't match purpose

Scoring Breakdown

Verdict

🔴 RED — A rug-pull detector that can't even detect its own lack of substance. Template-generated, non-functional, and sharing an owner with another template bot. The ERC-8004 ecosystem needs better filters for bulk template registrations.
