External Scanners

The live runtime keeps this layer intentionally narrow. RugCheck is the only active external scanner; the rest of Aegis uses Solscan, Solana RPC, and local heuristics.

Providers

Scanner	What It Checks
RugCheck	Solana mint authority, program status

How It Works

1. RugCheck runs alongside Aegis' internal Solana checks

2. Results are combined with Solscan enrichment, blacklist state, and local heuristics

3. Critical integrity issues → signal rejected

4. External timeouts are isolated so one dependency doesn't take down the whole pipeline

Why A Narrower Stack

• Fewer upstream dependencies

• Less noisy failure handling

• Better testability and coverage

• Cleaner Solana-only runtime behavior
