  "intent": "Understand LP-lock evidence and its limits",
  "directAnswer": "Look for lock evidence on the relevant liquidity position, but separate observed lock coverage from a claim that all liquidity is locked forever. A lock is useful context, not proof that a token is safe or that every pool is protected.",

        "Jepeta reports lp_locked_percent_observed and the LP-holder sample count from GoPlus-derived evidence. The field is explicitly described as observed sample coverage, not proof that all liquidity is locked.",

      "heading": "What else to review",
      "paragraphs": [
        "A lock does not remove mintability, tax, owner-control, holder-concentration, or honeypot risk. It also does not guarantee sufficient market depth.",
