## 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 limitguard-quick-risk-score-91bc73d4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run a quick risk score on 'Acme Corp BV' based in the Netherlands — I just need a fast check before we proceed with this vendor.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a fast, lightweight risk signal for a legal entity and country pair without incurring the cost or latency of a full compliance report. Ideal for pre-screening vendors, agents, or counterparties before deeper due diligence. Prefer over full entity check endpoints when speed matters and a directional score is sufficient.

## Known failure modes

- Missing entity_name or country returns a 400 validation error
- Unknown or unsupported country code may yield an error or low-confidence score
- Payment not completed (x402) results in 402 Payment Required
- Entity name too ambiguous or short may return a low-confidence or generic score
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns a 429 error

## How this service works

Quick risk score (0-100) for entity name + country. Lightweight check without full data source scan.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with entity_name, country, a numeric risk_score from 0 to 100, and a risk_level label (e.g. 'low', 'medium', 'high') indicating the entity's assessed risk.
