Catch the red flags while you live your life. This little sentinel keeps an eye on Solana tokens that matter to you—especially the wild ones showing up on Pump.fun and Meteora—mixes in a Jupiter liquidity sniff test, and pings you on Telegram when the picture starts to look rough.

It is not a crystal ball. It is a second pair of eyes that never sleeps, running the boring safety checks so you do not have to at 2am.

• Peace of mind before you click buy — mint and freeze authority, holder skew, and venue context land in one place.
• Multi-stop story — Pump.fun curve context, Meteora DAMM presence, and a Jupiter route probe give you a fuller sketch than any single site.
• Telegram that reads like a human — short, plain-language reasons, not a wall of hex.

1. Clone & install

   git clone <your-fork-or-url>
   cd solana-rug-checker-bot
   npm install

2. Whisper your secrets

   Copy .env.example → .env, drop in a solid Solana RPC, your Telegram bot token, the chat you want poked, and a REDIS_URL (or REDIS_MEMORY=true for local dev).

3. Run it

   npm run dev

   Validate Redis integration (in-memory, no live scans):

   npm run validate

   For a single heartbeat instead of a loop:

   npm run once

That is it. Leave it running on a small VPS, homelab, or laptop—with sane rate limits on your RPC—and let the alerts come to you.

• Alerts are heuristics, not guarantees. Smart actors evolve fast; always verify on-chain yourself for size.
• Public APIs occasionally sulk (rate limits, brownouts). The bot degrades gracefully and still leans on Solana RPC for the hard parts.
• Supply shock and social hype are out of scope—this tool sticks to mechanics you can audit.

Built for traders who like sunlight on mechanics. If something feels off, it probably is—this bot’s job is to hand you the receipts, not FOMO you into a click.

Not financial advice. Stay curious, stay skeptical, and keep friends who question your bags.
