Mevscope

pip install cognis-mevscope
mevscope scan .            # → prioritized findings in seconds

🔎 Example output

Real, reproducible output from the tool — runs offline:

$ mevscope-emit --version
mevscope 0.1.0

$ mevscope-emit --help
usage: mevscope [-h] [--version] COMMAND ...

Replay DEX swap history and attribute sandwich/frontrun MEV with per-trade victim loss accounting.

positional arguments:
  COMMAND
    scan      scan a swap-history JSON file for sandwich attacks

options:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --version   show program's version number and exit

Examples:
  python -m mevscope scan demos/01-basic/swaps.json
  python -m mevscope scan swaps.json --format json | jq .
  python -m mevscope scan swaps.json --fail-on-mev   # CI gate

Blocks above are real mevscope output — reproduce them from a clone.

Sample result format (illustrative values — run on your own data for real findings):

    {
        "id": "12345",
        "title": "Suspicious Activity Detected",
        "description": "An unknown actor has accessed our network.",
        "created_by": "John Doe",
        "created_at": "2023-02-15T14:30:00Z"
    },
    {
        "id": "67890",
        "title": "Malware Infection Detected",
        "description": "A virus has infected one of our servers.",
        "created_by": "Jane Smith",
        "created_at": "2023-02-16T10:45:00Z"
    }
]
}

Usage — step by step

mevscope replays DEX swap history and attributes sandwich/frontrun MEV with per-trade victim-loss accounting. Console script: mevscope (or python -m mevscope).

1. Install from a clone:

   pip install -e .
   

2. Scan a swap-history JSON file for sandwich attacks:

   mevscope scan demos/01-basic/swaps.json
   

3. Read the output — --format json exposes totals you can pipe:

   mevscope scan swaps.json --format json | jq '.total_victim_loss'
   

4. Gate on MEV — --fail-on-mev exits non-zero if any sandwich is detected:

   mevscope scan swaps.json --fail-on-mev
   

   Exit codes: 0 clean, 1 sandwich detected with --fail-on-mev, 2 input error.
5. Automate in CI — flag regressions in a protected-router test fixture:

   - run: pip install -e .
   - run: mevscope scan fixtures/swaps.json --fail-on-mev

Why mevscope?

'How much was I sandwiched this month?' as a single CLI command — quantified victim losses are intensely shareable on Crypto Twitter.

mevscope is single-purpose, scriptable, and self-hostable: point it at a target, get prioritized results in the format your workflow already speaks (table · JSON · SARIF), gate CI on it, and let agents drive it over MCP.

Features

• ✅ Load Swaps From Obj
• ✅ Load Swaps
• ✅ Detect Sandwiches
• ✅ Build Report
• ✅ Runs on Linux/macOS/Windows · Docker · devcontainer
• ✅ Ports in Python, JavaScript, Go, and Rust (ports/)

Quick start

pip install cognis-mevscope
mevscope --version
mevscope scan .                       # scan current project
mevscope scan . --format json         # machine-readable
mevscope scan . --fail-on high        # CI gate (non-zero exit)

Example

$ mevscope scan .
  [HIGH    ] MEV-001  example finding             (./src/app.py)
  [MEDIUM  ] MEV-002  another signal              (./config.yaml)

Use it from any AI stack

mevscope is interoperable with every popular way of using AI:

• MCP server — mevscope mcp (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cognis.Studio, uncensored-fleet)
• OpenAI-compatible / JSON — pipe mevscope scan . --format json into any agent or LLM
• LangChain · CrewAI · AutoGen · LlamaIndex — wrap the CLI/JSON as a tool in one line
• CI / scripts — exit codes + SARIF for non-AI pipelines

How it compares

	Cognis mevscope	EigenPhi
Self-hostable, no account	✅	varies
Single command, zero config	✅	⚠️
JSON + SARIF for CI	✅	varies
MCP-native (AI agents)	✅	❌
Polyglot ports (JS/Go/Rust)	✅	❌
Open license	✅ COCL	varies

Built in the spirit of EigenPhi / mev-inspect-py, re-framed the Cognis way. Missing a credit? Open a PR.

Integrations

Pipes into your stack: SARIF for code-scanning, JSON for anything, an MCP server (mevscope mcp) for AI agents, and a webhook forwarder for SIEM/Slack/Jira. See docs/INTEGRATIONS.md.
