## 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 geld-machen-red-flag-scan-4471f461
```

Example prompt: Scan this offer text for red flags and give me a verdict: 'Earn $500/day from home with no experience needed — just pay a $99 starter kit fee and recruit 3 friends to unlock your income.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need evidence-grounded red flag analysis tied directly to specific text from an offer, pitch, or solicitation — not a generic checklist. It is especially valuable when you need to cite specific language from the offer as evidence for each flag, rather than generic risk categories. Prefer it over manual review or generic scam-checkers when processing side-income ads, MLM pitches, freelance postings, or investment opportunities where quote-level specificity matters for trust decisions.

## Known failure modes

- Missing offer_text parameter returns full checklist and usage instructions instead of analysis
- Very short or vague offer text may produce fewer than 12 flags with limited evidence
- Payment via x402 required — unauthenticated requests will be rejected with 402 status
- offer_url fetch failures result in fallback to text-only analysis or error
- Extremely long offer text may be truncated or time out

## How this service works

JSON micro-tool for agents: POST {offer_text} → 12 red flags GROUNDED in that offer (evidence quotes/snippets), plus severity, check, action, hit, verdict. GET without offer_text returns full checklist + usage. Not a generic regenerable list — output cites YOUR text. Brand: geld machen. Instant JSON after x402.

## Output

A JSON object containing up to 12 red flags each grounded in direct quotes or snippets from the submitted offer text, with severity level, a specific check name, recommended action, whether the flag was hit, and an overall verdict summarizing the risk level of the offer.
