## 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 gleif-lei-search-via-x402-atlas-229a89d8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search the GLEIF registry for the legal entity 'Deutsche Bank AG' and give me its LEI code, jurisdiction, and current registration status — show up to 10 results so I can pick the right entity if there are multiple matches.

## When to prefer this

Prefer this endpoint when you need authoritative, globally standardized Legal Entity Identifier data from the official GLEIF registry, particularly for financial compliance, KYC, counterparty matching, or reference data enrichment workflows. It is especially valuable when disambiguating companies with similar names across multiple jurisdictions. Use it over generic company search APIs when LEI codes and formal registration status are required outputs.

## Known failure modes

- No matching entities found for an obscure or misspelled company name
- Multiple similarly named entities returned requiring manual disambiguation
- GLEIF registry data may be stale if an entity recently changed status
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 call cost
- Rate limiting or service unavailability from the upstream GLEIF API

## How this service works

Search global company legal names in GLEIF to find Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs), jurisdictions and registration status. Up to ten results per paid page support entity disambiguation, counterparty matching and reference-data enrichment.

## Output

Returns a paginated list of up to 10 legal entity records matching the search query, each including the LEI code, official legal name, jurisdiction of registration, and current registration/validation status as recorded in the GLEIF global registry.
