Every transaction you initiate is scored 0–100 against your behavioral profile before anything executes. Screening runs in a dedicated agent service — the same one that holds the signing key, which is why an unscreened transaction can never be signed. The result is one of three verdicts.

The Three Verdicts

APPROVE

Score < 40Your transaction matches your normal patterns. The agent co-signs and executes immediately — no action needed from you.

REVIEW

Score 40–70Something looks unusual. You’ll receive a Telegram message with the full risk analysis and [Approve] [Reject] buttons.

BLOCK

Score > 70The transaction is blocked outright. You’ll receive a Telegram alert explaining why.

What Gets Scored

Your profile is built from your past transactions. Each new transaction is checked against:
  • Recipient — is this address in your known contacts? Trusted, suspicious, or blocked?
  • Amount — is this within your typical range for this recipient? Always in dollars, priced server-side.
  • Volume — would this push you over your hourly, daily, or weekly limit?
  • Time — is this happening during your active hours and days?
  • Token & kind — unfamiliar tokens, unlimited approvals, unknown swap routers, and owner changes all score.
The full signal list with every weight, default limit, and hard guarantee is on the Risk Scoring page.

Adjusting Your Limits

Open Settings → Screening limits to see every limit with its default. Editing files a proposal — nothing applies from the app alone. Your agent shows you the exact old → new change on Telegram, and the change takes effect only when you confirm it there (proposals expire after 15 minutes). This is deliberate: Telegram is a different device from your browser, so a compromised web session can’t quietly loosen your own protection. Prefer chat? Asking the agent directly — “raise my daily limit to $50k” — applies immediately; the conversation is the confirmation.

Deep Analysis on REVIEW

For every REVIEW-tier transaction, the agent automatically runs external security checks before sending you the Telegram notification:
  • GoPlus Security — recipient address reputation, sanctions, phishing, and known scam detection
  • Honeypot.is — token security: honeypot detection, mintable supply, buy/sell tax rates
You receive the full report so you can make an informed decision.

Responding via Telegram

When a transaction is in REVIEW, you’ll get a Telegram message with:
  • Transaction details (recipient, amount, token)
  • Risk score and reasons
  • Deep analysis results
  • [Approve] and [Reject] buttons
Tap Approve to execute, or Reject to block it.

Overriding the Agent

The agent advises — it doesn’t gatekeep. In a Protected wallet, every proposal already sits in app.safe.global at 1 of 2 signatures. If the agent flags or blocks something you’re sure about, confirm it there with your backup key and execute — Zhentan syncs the result back automatically.

Turning Screening Off

Screening is a choice in Protected wallets:
  1. Toggle it off in Settings → Zhentan Guard (or via Telegram).
  2. Your transactions now need both of your keys — the agent never signs what it didn’t screen. Each send queues at 1 of 2 and completes when you co-sign with your backup wallet, either in-app (from transaction history) or in the Safe app.
Guarded wallets can’t turn screening off — with one user key against a threshold of two, no second signature could exist. Add a backup key first. Legacy v1 accounts are the exception: their agent co-signs without analysis until they upgrade.

Learning Over Time

After every confirmed transaction, Zhentan records the pattern. Recipients you transact with regularly become “known,” amounts normalize, and your screening becomes more accurate over time — with fewer false REVIEW alerts.

Telegram Commands

If Screening Is Momentarily Unavailable

Screening is fail-closed: if the screening service is ever briefly unreachable, your proposal is accepted and simply waits — you’ll see it as pending with its real signature count (e.g. 1 of 2). Nothing executes without a verdict, and the moment the service returns, screening completes automatically and the normal flow (auto-execute, or the Telegram review) picks up where it left off. Transactions that never involve the agent’s signature — starter wallets and screening-off co-signed transfers — are unaffected and execute as usual. Paused, never unsafe.
