# Kleros Scout MetaMask Snap

Kleros Scout is available as a **MetaMask Snap** that enables safer contract interactions by delivering community-curated insights about the contracts you interact with on the blockchain. With each transaction, a tab displays insights about the contract being interacted with.

The Snap provides metadata from three decentralized registries:

* [**Address Tags Registry**](https://curate.kleros.io/tcr/100/0x66260C69d03837016d88c9877e61e08Ef74C59F2): verified project names and contract tags
* [**Contract-Domain Name Registry**](https://curate.kleros.io/tcr/100/0x957A53A994860BE4750810131d9c876b2f52d6E1): verified contract-to-domain pairings
* [**Tokens Registry**](https://curate.kleros.io/tcr/100/0xeE1502e29795Ef6C2D60F8D7120596abE3baD990): ERC-20 token information

## How to use the Snap's features?

Once you install the Kleros Scout Snap, with every txn/contract interaction, you will see a tab which provides you with insights around the same. Upon installation, If you see this, you are already using community curated contract insights for secure dapp interaction - the most important feature of the Kleros Scout Snap.

## Knowledge Base

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How is contract information curated for the Scout Snap?">
    Kleros Curate is a decentralized dApp used to create open curated registries. Financial incentives and dispute resolution maintain the quality and policy compliance of every entry.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who controls the entries on the list?">
    Community members submit items with deposits, and anyone can challenge a submission during a vetting period. Unchallenged entries are approved; challenged ones go to Kleros jurors for resolution. No single party controls the registry.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why is decentralized contract data needed?">
    Centralized parties have financial incentives to whitelist tokens or manage address tags for profit, which creates vulnerabilities to phishing and manipulation. Decentralized, community-secured data removes that single point of failure.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I submit contract insights?">
    Yes, community submissions are encouraged. See the [Scout Tutorial](/tutorials/scout-tutorial) for step-by-step guides to making submissions to the three security metadata registries.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What motivates people to submit?">
    Two things: incentives (Kleros runs regular programs rewarding active submitters, see [Earn with Scout](/products/scout-earn)) and community benefit (there is minimal risk in submitting known-safe contracts you have used, and doing so protects thousands of users).
