## 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 company-facts-lookup-by-ticker-306ef1d3
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the official company facts for AAPL — I need its SEC CIK number, state of incorporation, SIC description, and whether it's on any sanctions list?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to combine SEC EDGAR corporate identity data with a sanctions check in a single call for a publicly traded US company identified by its stock ticker. It is ideal for compliance workflows, financial research agents, or onboarding pipelines that need authoritative company metadata (CIK, SIC, incorporation state, filing history) alongside a sanctions flag — rather than querying EDGAR and a sanctions database separately.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or invalid ticker symbol returns resolved:false with no EDGAR data
- Delisted or OTC tickers may not resolve in EDGAR
- Payment failure via x402 returns HTTP 402 before data is delivered
- Network timeouts on EDGAR or sanctions data source result in 5xx errors
- Tickers for foreign-listed companies without SEC filings may not resolve
