# Bounty Engineer PII Redaction Map

> Bounty Engineer PII Redaction Map is a paid API for AI agents from bounty-engineer-x402-prod.onrender.com, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

Scans input text for PII (emails, phones, IPs, payment card numbers), returns redacted text and a map of findings with type, position, and SHA-256 hash for each detected item.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 bounty-engineer-pii-redaction-map-6d84078e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Scan this text for any emails, phone numbers, or card numbers, replace them with redaction placeholders, and give me a map showing what was found and where: 'Email me at alice@example.com or call 555-867-5309.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need both a redacted copy of the text AND a structured map of findings (type + position + hash) in a single call — ideal for audit trails, downstream annotation, or compliance logging. Prefer it over a simple regex scrub when you need reproducible SHA-256 hashes of the original PII values for pseudonymization or deduplication without retaining raw data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty 'text' field returns an error or empty findings
- Very long strings may time out or be truncated
- Pattern-based detector misses non-standard PII formats (e.g. obfuscated emails, international phone formats)
- Luhn-valid card detection may produce false positives on numeric strings that happen to pass the check
- Non-UTF-16 offset consumers may misalign if they use byte or UTF-8 offsets instead

## How this service works

Machine-buyable infrastructure for autonomous agents: API cost routing, margin optimization, funding-rate data, webpage extraction, result verification, spend controls, retry planning, state, tender search and GitHub bounty intelligence.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with ok=true, the redacted version of the input text (with PII replaced by labeled placeholders like [REDACTED_EMAIL]), an array of findings each containing type, UTF-16 start/end offsets, and SHA-256 hash of the original value, a total finding_count, a SHA-256 of the original input, and a limitations notice about the pattern-based detection scope.
