## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability fittings-pep-wikidata-screener-64fcb643
```

Example prompt: Can you screen the name 'Vladimir Putin' against Wikidata to find every government or state office he's held, checking up to 5 candidates?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, structured PEP (Politically Exposed Person) lookup grounded in Wikidata's open knowledge graph, especially for compliance, KYC, or due diligence workflows. It is ideal when you want structured office-held history with dates rather than unstructured biographical text. Prefer it over general web search when you need machine-readable, citable political position data.

## Known failure modes

- Name not found in Wikidata — returns empty results or no matching candidates
- Ambiguous name matches multiple unrelated people — top candidates may include incorrect individuals
- Wikidata data gap — person is a PEP but position-held claims are incomplete or missing
- limit parameter out of range (must be 1–5) — request rejected
- Wikidata service unavailable — upstream timeout or error

## How this service works

Screen a person name against Wikidata position-held claims, returning every government or state office the matching people have held, with start and end dates.

## Output

A list of matching Wikidata entities for the queried name, each with the government or state offices they have held (position title, start date, end date), sourced from Wikidata position-held claims.
