4.4.Risk Classification System
A standardized way to grade smart contract threats and transparency gaps.
To ensure clarity for both investors and developers, OPPAD uses a tiered risk classification system during the review process. This system applies to both AegisAI™ and Sentinel Review, helping categorize the severity of issues found in a project’s smart contracts or configuration.
[!INFO] This system is not just for backend scoring — risk levels are visible on the project dashboard and determine badge status, launch eligibility, and user alerts.
🎯 Risk Tiers
Risk Level
Description
✅ Pass
No critical or major issues. Ready to launch with full audit badge.
⚠️ Warning
Non-critical risks or questionable design choices. Requires flag or notice.
❌ Critical
Serious flaws, malicious patterns, or undeclared behavior. Launch blocked.
🧠 Risk Evaluation Factors
Risk is classified based on a combination of:
Exploitability: Can the issue be used to harm users or drain funds?
Stealth: Is the logic hidden or intentionally obfuscated?
Mismatch: Does the contract contradict declared tokenomics or features?
Repeat Patterns: Does the contract resemble known scams or rug templates?
Centralization Risk: Can the dev or owner pause, blacklist, or mint arbitrarily?
🔄 Cross-Layer Consistency
AegisAI™ assigns a numerical score (0–100) with thresholds for Warning and Critical.
Sentinel reviewers confirm, override, or elevate the AI-assigned risk based on human logic.
Final classification is stored on-chain and reflected in the badge system.
[!WARNING] Even a project that passes AegisAI™ can be downgraded to Critical by Sentinel if manual logic review reveals deception or unlisted features.
