## 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 merchant-settlement-receipt-redaction-tier-procedure-a9a3d439
```

Example prompt: What redaction tier should I apply to this settlement receipt — should I share just the hash, partial metadata, or the full record — and what are the rules for auditor and facilitator access?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an x402 merchant agent needs authoritative guidance on settlement receipt disclosure policy — specifically when deciding between redaction tiers, handling auditor or facilitator data requests, or applying retention and kill criteria. Prefer over general compliance documentation when an agent needs a machine-readable, actionable decision procedure rather than static policy text.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid 'type' or 'method' fields in input returns a validation error
- Payment not completed results in 402 response requiring x402 payment of $0.002 USDC
- Invalid topic override may return a generic procedure rather than a tailored one
- Service unavailability returns a non-200 response with no result payload

## How this service works

Decision procedure for x402 merchants to determine how much of a settlement receipt to disclose after payment, with redaction tiers from hash-only to full metadata, auditor and facilitator access rules, retention limits, and kill criteria for disclosure.

## Output

A structured response containing decision procedure prose for AI agents, describing redaction tiers (from hash-only to full metadata), auditor and facilitator access rules, retention limits, and kill criteria for disclosure. Includes a service slug, ISO-8601 generation timestamp, generation source (llm, reasoning, or deterministic), and topic string.
