Tronscan Contract Analysis

Contract Analysis

Overview

Use Cases

1. Deploy & Basic Info: Use getContractDetail for balance, verification status, call count, method mapping.
2. Hot Methods: Use getContractCallStatistic for top called methods.
3. Top Callers: Use getContractCallStatistic or getContractCallers for top 5 or full caller list.
4. Open-source / Verification: Verification status is in getContractDetail.
5. Transaction Count: Use getContractDetail or getContractTriggerTransactions for call/tx volume.
6. Malicious Clues: Combine events (getContractEvents), energy (getContractEnergyStatistic), and call stats to spot unusual patterns.

MCP Server

• Prerequisite: TronScan MCP Guide

Tools

getContractDetail

• API: getContractDetail — Get contract details (balance, verification status, call count, method map)
• Use when: User asks for "contract info", "contract address", or "is contract verified".
• Input: contract (contract address) — Note: parameter name is contract, not address.
• Response: Balance, verified flag, call count, method map.

getContractCallStatistic

• API: getContractCallStatistic — Get contract call stats (call count, top callers, top methods)
• Use when: User asks for "hot methods", "top callers", or "who calls this contract".
• Input: Contract address (and optional time range).
• Response: Call counts, top callers, top methods.

getContractCallers

• API: getContractCallers — Get all callers and call count for a given day
• Use when: User asks for "caller list" or "who called today".
• Input: Contract address, date.

getContractEvents

• API: getContractEvents — Get contract events (transfer events and method calls)
• Use when: User asks for "contract events" or "transfers from contract".
• Input: Contract address, pagination.

getContractList

• API: getContractList — Get contract list with search by name/address, sort, pagination
• Use when: User searches contracts by keyword or browses list.

getContractEnergyStatistic

• API: getContractEnergyStatistic — Get contract energy consumption (total and daily)
• Use when: User asks for "contract energy" or "gas usage".

getContractTriggerTransactions

• API: getContractTriggerTransactions — Get contract-triggered transactions in a time range
• Use when: User asks for "contract transactions" or "recent calls".

getContractAnalysis

• API: getContractAnalysis — Get contract daily analysis (balance, transfers, energy, bandwidth, calls, fee)
• Use when: User asks for "contract activity over time".

getCallerAddressStatistic

• API: getCallerAddressStatistic — Get contract call count per period (with max/min) on TRON
• Use when: User asks for "call volume over time" or "contract call statistics by period".
• Input: startTimestamp, endTimestamp (required); optional limit.

getContractTriggerStatistic

• API: getContractTriggerStatistic — Get daily call count for a contract within a time range
• Use when: User asks for "daily call count", "contract trigger trend", or "how often is this contract called".
• Input: address, startTimestamp, endTimestamp (all required).
• Response: Daily call count and total call count.

getHolderTokenBasicInfo

• API: getHolderTokenBasicInfo — Get token balance and holding duration for an account
• Use when: User asks for "how long has this address held this token" or "token holding details".
• Input: accountAddress, tokenAddress (both required).

Troubleshooting

• MCP connection failed: If you see "Connection refused", verify TronScan MCP is connected in Settings > Extensions.
• API rate limit / 429: TronScan API has call count and frequency limits when no API key is used. If you encounter rate limiting or 429 errors, go to TronScan Developer API to apply for an API key, then add it to your MCP configuration and retry.

Invalid contract address

Ensure the address is a valid TRON contract (not an EOA address). Use TRC20/721/1155 contract address for token contracts.

Notes

• To assess malicious risk: check verification, top methods (unusual names), energy spike, and event patterns.
• Top 5 callers and top methods come from getContractCallStatistic.
• Contract verification scope: getContractDetail returns contract-level verification status (whether the contract source code has been open-sourced and verified on TronScan). This is a code-level check only — it does not indicate whether the token project itself has been officially endorsed or certified.
