Summary Flags

List of flags that are present in the summary response from IsHoneypot/Summary endpoint.

Note that this is present in the summary.flags and not flags field from the root object. The original flags field is present for legacy reasons, however due to the original not being very informative, it is recommended to use summary.flags instead.

Severity

Each flag contains a severity and severity index.
Possible values: "info" (4), "low" (8), "medium" (12), "high" (16), "critical" (20).
There's a gap between the severity index values to allow for future values. Severity index is always unsigned integer (thus positive).
The severity for a flag can change.
In the API response, the severity is in lowercase. Example of a flag in the response:

{
  "flag": "TRANSFER_BLOCKED",
  "description": "Normal transfers between wallets are blocked, those are non-DEX transactions.",
  "severity": "medium",
  "severityIndex": 12
}

The description is the English description of the flag, and can often change or be dynamic.
Flags can be added/removed, as well as their threshold for getting triggered can change. If precision is required, it is recommended to use the results from IsHoneypot instead.
