## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability ip-reputation-check-b0ca831a
```

Example prompt: Can you check the reputation of IP address 185.220.101.42 — is it on any spam or abuse blocklists, a Tor exit node, or a datacenter IP, and what's the overall risk label?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, multi-signal IP reputation verdict combining DNSBL blocklist checks, Tor exit node detection, and datacenter/residential classification in a single $0.01 call — ideal for fraud screening at signup, firewall triage, or ad traffic quality checks where you need structured risk labeling rather than raw WHOIS or geolocation data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed IP address returns an error
- Private or reserved IP ranges may not be checkable against public blocklists
- DNSBL provider timeouts may result in incomplete blocklist coverage
- IPv6 addresses may have limited blocklist coverage depending on lists queried
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 or 429 status

## How this service works

IP reputation check: is this IP address on spam or abuse blocklists (DNSBL lookups across major lists), is it a Tor exit node, and does it belong to a cloud or hosting provider (datacenter IP) rather than a residential network. Returns a risk label (clean / suspicious / bad) with the reasons. Fraud screening, signup risk and firewall decisions. $0.01 per IP.

## Output

Returns a risk label (clean, suspicious, or bad), along with specific reasons such as which DNSBL blocklists the IP appears on, whether it is a Tor exit node, and whether it belongs to a datacenter or hosting provider rather than a residential network.
