## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability aurenic-ofac-address-screening-22ff444b
```

Example prompt: Can you check if the wallet address 0x7F367cC41522cE07553e823bf3be79A889debe1B is on the OFAC sanctions list before I send funds to it?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, pay-per-call OFAC sanctions check on a specific blockchain wallet address without committing to a subscription-based compliance service. Ideal for AI agents that need to perform on-demand AML/CFT screening of counterparty addresses before executing crypto transactions, onboarding users, or approving DeFi interactions.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed address returns an error or empty result
- Address not found in OFAC database returns a clean/no-match result
- Payment failure (402) if x402 micropayment not provided
- Rate limiting or service unavailability returns 5xx errors
- Non-Ethereum or unsupported address formats may not be screened correctly

## How this service works

Web scraping and AI automation. High-performance data extraction and pay-per-call microservices.

## Output

Returns a JSON response indicating whether the queried address appears on OFAC sanctions lists, likely including match status, any matched entity details, and a compliance determination flag.
