Web3 investigation desk
Chainscope
Investigate transactions, bridges, contracts, DAOs and wallets in one case file.
Chainscope is a web3 investigation desk that turns fifteen usefulweb.site blockchain tools into one case file. Collect wallets, contracts, transaction hashes and DAO spaces, run decoders, bridge trackers, upgrade and permission checks, incident replays, MEV, gas, stablecoin, rollup and token-unlock explorers on them, and read one dashboard of findings with a merged entity graph, a timeline with calendar reminders, run-to-run comparisons and a printable report. Results feed the next step: a decoded transaction suggests the MEV check of its block, an upgradeable proxy suggests a look at its implementation and admin.

Features
One case file per investigation
Wallets, contracts, transaction hashes, tokens and DAO spaces in an address book with labels, flags (suspect, victim, trusted, watch) and tags, next to the checks that ran on them and a timestamped case journal.
Fifteen web3 tools, one desk
Transaction decoder, bridge tracker, cross-chain explorer, ERC-4337 explorer, incident replay, upgrade and relationship graphs, wallet permissions, Aave liquidations, DAO governance, token unlocks, gas, stablecoin flows, MEV and rollup batches.
Playbooks
Pick a transaction, contract, wallet or DAO and add the matching checks in one go: “Investigate a transaction” decodes it, tracks bridges, follows cross-chain hops and inspects smart-account bundles.
Results feed the next step
Every result suggests follow-up checks with its own data: the block of a decoded transaction goes to the MEV explorer, a proxy’s implementation and admin to the upgrade check, a bridge’s destination transaction to the decoder.
Findings dashboard
All results become severity-ranked findings — reverted transactions, stuck bridge transfers, single-key upgrade admins, unlimited approvals, sandwiches, liquidatable borrowers, concentrated votes, near unlocks — with filters and a jump to the check.
Merged case graph
The graphs of all tools in one picture: addresses are merged across checks, labelled from your address book and coloured by flag; export it as SVG or PNG.
Cross-references
Chainscope lists every address and hash the tools returned, with its roles and the checks it appears in, so the wallet that shows up in three results stands out. Add it to the address book with one click.
Changes over time
Each check keeps its run history: new and resolved findings, changed metrics and sparklines show what moved between yesterday’s and today’s gas, supply, approvals or health factor. Stale live results are marked.
Scenario A/B
Compare two checks or two runs side by side — two contracts, two chains, before and after a revoke — metric by metric, with the findings only one side has.
Batch runs
Paste up to 50 transaction hashes or addresses and run the same check over each, with progress, rate-limit waits, a result table and a CSV.
Timeline and reminders
Incident transactions, cross-chain hops, liquidations, proposal deadlines, token unlocks and your re-check dates on one timeline, exported as an .ics calendar with alarms.
Consolidated report
A printable case report (PDF via print) with findings, address book, checks, timeline, graph and journal, plus CSV, JSON, Markdown, SVG and PNG exports.
Live or pasted data
Each check reads the chain live or decodes pasted receipts, logs, bytecode or block JSON — useful for archived incidents, private RPC exports and offline demos. Earlier results stay readable without a connection.
Cases that travel
Autosave and recent cases in your browser, case files, share links, undo/redo, six templates and Google Drive saving.
API, MCP & App Bridge
Every tool is available through the JSON API and MCP on the app host; findings, tables, reports and the graph go to other premium apps, and text with addresses or hashes comes in from them.
Templates
Start from a ready-made project and change it to fit.
USDC contract due diligence
Live look-ups of the USDC token on Ethereum: who can upgrade it, how its contracts relate, the type of the admin account and today’s USDC flows.
Where is my bridged USDC? (sample data)
A Circle CCTP transfer from Ethereum to Base, decoded from the tools’ sample logs: bridge status, cross-chain path and the token call. Swap in your own transaction hash.
Exploit post-mortem (sample data)
Replay of a flash-loan drain with timeline, fund flows and suspects, plus the block’s MEV and the bytecode of the contracts involved — all from offline sample data.
Wallet approval hygiene (sample data)
Approvals, NFT operators and Permit2 allowances of a wallet, a smart-account bundle and Aave liquidations from offline sample data, with a re-check reminder.
Daily market desk
Live gas on seven chains, USDT flows, MEV in the latest Ethereum block, Base batch status and fresh Aave liquidations — re-run daily and compare.
DAO votes and token unlocks
Live Aave DAO proposals and vote concentration, a sample DAO with a quorum problem, and two vesting schedules on one timeline with calendar reminders.

For AI agents
Chainscope runs on a deterministic engine. The same functions are available as tools with a JSON API and MCP, so scripts and AI agents get exactly the results the app shows.

Frequently asked questions
Where does the chain data come from?
From the usefulweb.site tools: they read public RPC nodes of Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche and BNB Chain, Sourcify for verified ABIs, Snapshot for proposals and DefiLlama for prices, as described on each tool page. Chainscope itself stores nothing on a server: your case stays in this browser unless you save a file, a link or a Drive copy.
Do I need a wallet or an API key?
No. Chainscope never asks for a wallet connection, a signature or a key. It only reads public data, so it cannot move funds or revoke approvals; it tells you what to revoke and where.
How reliable are the findings?
They are derived from the tool results with documented rules (for example: an upgrade admin that is a single wallet is rated high; a borrower with a health factor below 1 is critical). Attribution in incident replays and MEV detection is heuristic, and Chainscope says so in the finding. Confirm important conclusions with a block explorer.
Why does a run wait or fail sometimes?
Every run is a request to the tool API, which shares public RPC nodes and has a rate limit (about 15 web3 requests per minute). Chainscope queues runs, waits for the limit and offers a retry; public nodes also refuse very large log ranges, which the error message names.
Can I investigate an old incident or work offline?
Yes, partly. Most checks accept pasted receipts, logs, bytecode or block JSON instead of a live lookup; the tool API still does the decoding, but no chain access is needed. Earlier results, the graph, timeline and report stay readable offline.
Can an AI agent build a Chainscope case?
Yes. The case format is documented as a JSON schema (/project.schema.json) — each check’s inputs are exactly the tool’s API input. The fifteen tools are available through the JSON API and MCP on chainscope.usefulweb.site, and a case opens with a #project= link.
Limitations
What Chainscope does not do (yet):
- Chainscope reads public chain data only; it does not connect wallets, sign, revoke or trade.
- Supported chains are those of the tools: Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche and BNB Chain (the cross-chain explorer also reads Solana signatures).
- Public RPC nodes limit log ranges and history; large scans can fail, and some tools then need pasted data or a smaller window.
- Runs go through the tool API rate limit (about 15 web3 requests per minute); batch runs wait and resume.
- Suspect attribution, MEV detection and risk ratings are heuristics of the tools; they are not legal or financial advice.
- Full tool outputs are cached in this browser only; case files and links keep the compact digest, findings and metrics.
- On phones the workspace is a single column; the graph and long tables are easier on a larger screen.
