Transaction Tools
Transaction Tools inspect individual transactions across all registered EVM chains. On fully indexed chains, they also search recent decoded function calls and event emissions.
queryTransactionTool can return all decoded data or filter balances, traces, and logs with a natural-language query. Transfer and balance amounts are decimal-adjusted; trace and log values remain raw.
For simulated hashes, pass the tevmForkId returned by HAL. The same deterministic hash can exist on more than one fork, so the fork ID identifies the exact simulation state.
Indexed contract activity
Function and event searches return the latest 20 matching transactions. Use a function or event name to resolve its signature from the contract ABI, or pass the selector or topic hash directly.
Argument values are raw rather than decimal-adjusted. Use contract metadata and ABI types to interpret units and structure.
Before authoring a HAL action, inspect recent calls and events. Real transactions reveal approvals, parameter patterns, and multi-step flows that an ABI cannot show.
Common uses
- Confirm which contracts and functions a transaction called.
- Find token approvals, Permit2 signatures, and prerequisite steps.
- Inspect internal calls, decoded events, and asset movement.
- Verify that a simulation used gas, emitted logs, or transferred assets.
- Connect a simulated call back to its HAL batch and step.
A successful simulation can still call an address with no deployed code. Treat zero gas with no calls, logs, or transfers as evidence that nothing ran.
