## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability ai-audit-attestation-neutral-notary-4b5d52cf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you get a neutral third-party attestation confirming that the AI security audit we submitted was actually performed and that its findings match what we claimed — we need the credential so our compliance checkpoint can trust the result without re-running the audit.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a downstream system, compliance checkpoint, or regulator requires independent proof that an AI audit occurred and its findings are authentic, without the overhead of re-running the audit. It is the right choice when trust must be established between parties who did not witness the original audit — ideal for regulated deployments, vendor evaluations, or multi-party AI governance workflows where a neutral notary credential is required.

## Known failure modes

- Audit identifier not found or unrecognized — returns error indicating the referenced audit cannot be located
- Findings mismatch detected — attestation fails if claimed findings do not match the underlying audit record
- Malformed prompt or missing required audit reference — returns validation error
- Service unavailable or BlindOracle backend error — returns 5xx with no attestation issued
- Payment failure (x402) — call not processed if USDC payment is not completed

## How this service works

Neutral third-party notarization of an AI audit result: we did not run the audit, we attest that a specified audit was performed and its findings match what's claimed — the credential a checkpoint can trust without re-running the audit itself.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing an attestation summary (string), a list of verified findings (array of strings), and recommendations (array of strings). Together these constitute a notarized credential that downstream systems or checkpoints can trust as proof the audit was performed and findings are authentic.
