About this app
WHAT IT DOES
The Approval Delegate Trust Explainer reads a pending delegate() or delegateBySig() transaction and explains who you are delegating to—before you sign. You enter the governance contract address and the delegate address, and the tool reads the delegate's on-chain governance participation: voting power, recent votes (proposal IDs and support/against), whether the delegate is a contract or EOA, and your current delegation status. It then uses AI to generate a plain‑language trust assessment, telling you whether the delegate appears active, passive, or unknown, and whether they have voted on significant proposals. This helps you make an informed decision before handing over your voting power.
HOW TO USE
1. Connect your EVM wallet (required to read your current delegation).
2. Select the chain (Ethereum, Polygon, or Arbitrum).
3. Enter the governance contract address (e.g., Compound, Uniswap, ENS).
4. Enter the delegate address you are considering.
5. Select the action type (delegate or delegateBySig).
6. Click "Explain delegate" to fetch the delegate's history and generate an assessment.
7. Review the delegate's voting power, recent votes, and AI trust assessment.
8. The wallet's own signature prompt will still appear—this tool only informs you.
THE REAL MECHANISM — governance contract read with vote history scanning and AI assessment
This tool reads from the governance contract using standard interfaces: `getCurrentVotes(address)` to get the delegate's voting power, `delegates(address)` to check your current delegation status, and `VoteCast` event logs to fetch recent votes by the delegate. It scans the last 50,000 blocks for VoteCast events involving the delegate address, extracts proposal IDs and vote direction (for/against), and displays up to five recent votes. The tool also checks `eth_getCode` to determine if the delegate is a contract or EOA. It builds a structured prompt for the AI bridge (BGAI.generate) with voting power, vote count, contract status, and action type, and the AI returns a trust assessment with a plain‑language explanation of whether the delegate appears active and trustworthy.
WHAT IT CANNOT SEE
- This tool cannot read the exact intent behind the delegation—only the on‑chain data.
- It cannot determine with certainty whether the delegate will vote in the user's interest.
- It cannot predict future voting behavior.
- It cannot read off‑chain reputation or social signals.
- It does not support governance contracts that use non‑standard delegation interfaces.
- It cannot prevent you from signing a transaction—it only provides information.
PLEASE NOTE
- This tool works on Ethereum (1), Polygon (137), and Arbitrum (42161).
- Vote history scanning is limited to the last 50,000 blocks; older votes may not appear.
- The AI explanation is generated from the data you provide and is for guidance only. Always review the actual transaction details in your wallet before signing.
- The wallet's own signature prompt is what actually protects you—the AI's read is not a substitute for reviewing what you sign.
