Intuition Snap

The Intuition Snap enhances your MetaMask experience by providing crowdsourced insights and context about Ethereum addresses you interact with. By leveraging the wisdom of the crowd, this Snap enables you to make more informed decisions about who you’re transacting with directly within your MetaMask wallet.

What is Intuition?

Intuition empowers MetaMask users to:

  • View Community-Sourced Insights: Access information, reviews, and opinions from other users about any Ethereum address.
  • Contribute Knowledge: Share your own experiences with addresses to help others in the community.
  • Make Safer, Informed Decisions: Gain deeper insights into smart contracts and wallets before interacting with them.
  • Access Crowd Wisdom Seamlessly: Integrates directly into MetaMask, making insights easily accessible without leaving your wallet.

Why Use Intuition Snap?

The Intuition Snap provides a decentralized, community-driven layer of trust for interacting with Ethereum addresses. Whether you're transacting with individuals, smart contracts, or DeFi applications, having access to crowd-sourced insights helps you:

  • Avoid Scams and Phishing: Spot potential red flags or risky addresses flagged by the community.
  • Build Trust: Discover trusted addresses or reputable projects validated by other users.
  • Enhance Security: Get additional information about the contract or wallet before interacting, helping you avoid risky transactions.

Snaps is Pre-Release Software

To use the Intuition Snap, you’ll need to install MetaMask Flask, a developer-focused version of MetaMask that provides early access to upcoming features like Snaps. Since Snaps is currently in pre-release, it is intended for testing and development, so please exercise caution when using it with real assets.

Setup

To get started with the Intuition Snap, follow these steps:

  1. Install MetaMask Flask:

    • MetaMask Flask is a special developer version of MetaMask that allows you to use Snaps. Download and install it to access upcoming features.

  2. Clone the Intuition Snap Repository:

    • Open your terminal and clone this repository: 
      git clone https://github.com/0xIntuition/intuition-snap.git
cd intuition-snap

  3. Install Dependencies:

    • Install all necessary dependencies with Yarn: 
      yarn install

  4. Start the Development Server:

    • Start the Snap development server to begin testing within MetaMask Flask: 
      yarn start

Once these steps are complete, the Intuition Snap should be available within MetaMask Flask for testing and development.

Usage

With the Intuition Snap installed, you can access community insights and context about Ethereum addresses directly in MetaMask Flask.

  • Viewing Insights:

    • When you interact with an Ethereum address in MetaMask Flask, the Intuition Snap will display any available community insights, comments, or ratings related to that address. This gives you helpful context based on crowd-sourced data.

  • Contributing Your Own Insights:

    • To help the community, you can add your experiences and knowledge of specific Ethereum addresses directly through the Snap. Simply select an address, and use the provided interface to submit your feedback or ratings.

The Intuition Snap makes it easy to get and share valuable information, helping everyone in the community make safer, more informed decisions.
