Safe Tools - Message Signing & EIP-1271 Verification

App Information

Description

Safe Tools enables message signing and verification for Gnosis Safe accounts using the official SignMessageLib contract. The app creates EIP-1271 compliant signatures by storing message hashes onchain, enabling Safe accounts to prove ownership and authenticate with offchain services.

Key Features

  • Message signing using Safe's SignMessageLib contract (0xA65387F16B013cf2Af4605Ad8aA5ec25a2cbA3a2)
  • EIP-1271 compliant signature verification
  • MEW/MyCrypto compatible output format
  • Multi-signature coordination via Safe transaction system
  • Supports 9 networks: Ethereum, Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum, Sepolia, Goerli, Gnosis Chain, Base, zkSync Era

Technical Validation

  • ✅ Safe Apps SDK properly integrated using @safe-global/safe-apps-react-sdk
  • ✅ CORS headers configured for Safe Apps iframe embedding
  • ✅ No custom smart contracts (uses existing Safe infrastructure)
  • ✅ EIP-712 message hashing with Safe domain separation
  • ✅ Progressive enhancement (works as standalone page and Safe App)

Test Plan

App behavior is fully testable via live UI:

  1. Connection test - detects Safe environment
  2. Message signing - creates Safe transaction to SignMessageLib
  3. Multi-signature support - handles threshold requirements automatically
  4. Output formats - displays both standard and MEW/MyCrypto JSON
  5. Copy functionality - all data can be copied to clipboard

Security

  • Open source under MIT license
  • No external dependencies or tracking
  • Uses official Safe contracts only
  • No wallet connection prompts required

The app has been thoroughly tested and is production-ready.

In addition to the web app, Safe Tools includes a CLI utility published as an NPM package for developers who prefer terminal workflows or need integration in backend environments.

📦 NPM: [eth-signature-verifier](https://www.npmjs.com/package/eth-signature-verifier)
🌐 Web App: https://safetools.io/

Functionality:

  • Verifies EIP-1271 signatures from Gnosis Safe accounts
  • Accepts MEW/MyCrypto-compatible JSON formats
  • Supports message signing and verification with hardware wallets
  • Can be used in CI, scripts, or offchain services that require signature checks
  • No wallet connection required for verification

The CLI complements the web interface and gives developers flexibility in how they interact with Safe signatures.

🚀 Thanks for submitting Safe Tools!
This app provides a valuable utility for Safe users and developers alike, enabling message signing and verification fully compliant with EIP-1271 using Safe’s native infrastructure. The multi-network support and CLI utility are especially useful for real-world integrations.

We’ll proceed with review and validation shortly. Great work so far!

✅ Add Safe Tools – Message Signing & EIP-1271 Verification (#469)

This app introduces message signing utilities and full EIP-1271 support for Safe accounts, enabling:
• eth_sign, personal_sign, eth_signTypedData_v4 flows
• On-chain signature validation using isValidSignature(bytes32, bytes)
• Seamless signer detection via Safe Apps SDK + WalletConnect
• Use cases: DAO auth, secure proposals, off-chain attestations

🧪 QA validated on:
• Ethereum Mainnet, Polygon, Arbitrum
• Both owner and non-owner addresses (EIP-1271 returns false for unauthorized)

📘 Optional Enhancements:
• Add example payloads in README
• Include a sample test UI or verifier hook

🔐 SafeVault
• safevault.json manifest added to Safe Apps list
• Verified manifestUrl, iconUrl, appUrl, and supported chains
• PR comment summarizing governance + automation (✅ done)
• QA: issue proposals, Telegram alerts, Reown login, UI signer-awareness

✍️ Safe Tools (EIP-1271 Verifier)
• Manifest JSON entry (optional: add a test payload link in README)
• PR comment summarizing EIP-1271 flows (✅ done)
• QA: eth_sign + on-chain verification
• Deployed on supported Safe chains

If you’re publishing these apps publicly on https://apps.safe.global/, make sure:
• You’ve hosted both apps with valid CORS + HTTPS support (e.g. via Vercel or GitHub Pages)
• The icons are accessible and 128x128 format
• The manifest.json links are publicly reachable
