## 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 records-for-agents-exact-registry-number-lookup-by-jurisdiction-78f4fca7
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the OFAC sanctions record for entity number 12345 — I want the full filing details for that specific entry.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you already have a known, exact registry identifier (OFAC ent_num, Colorado entity ID, or Florida document number) and need to retrieve the canonical record for that specific entity. This is faster and more precise than fuzzy name search or full-text search — ideal for audit trails, downstream validation after a name-screen, or direct integration with structured data pipelines that already carry registry numbers.

## Known failure modes

- Registry number not found in the specified jurisdiction returns a 404 or empty result
- Invalid jurisdiction parameter causes a request error
- Florida coverage limited to active-status entities in v1 — dissolved or inactive FL entities may not be found
- Malformed registry number format may return no results
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request before any lookup is performed

## How this service works

Business registry verification and restricted-party screening for AI agents: OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) and Consolidated sanctions lists (incl. aka/fka/nka aliases and vessel/aircraft designations), the Commerce and State watchlists from the Trade.gov Consolidated Screening List (BIS Entity List, Denied Persons, Unverified, Military End User; State ITAR Debarred and Nonproliferation Sanctions), plus Colorado and Florida Secretary of State business registry records. Screen a name for sanctions and export-control exposure (KYB/AML compliance), verify a business or person against state registry filings with fuzzy name matching (legal-suffix, dba, and person-name-order variants), full-text search across sources, or look up an exact registry number (OFAC ent_num, CO entity id, FL document number). Coverage is honest, not exhaustive: state registry coverage starts with FL and CO only, and FL coverage is limited to active-status entities in v1 (dissolved/inactive FL entities are not yet ingested). Every record carries full provenance (source, source URL, fetched-at, record hash) and every response includes as_of freshness — built for agent-driven KYB, sanctions compliance, and verification workflows.

## Output

A structured entity record matching the exact registry number and jurisdiction provided, including business name, aliases (aka/fka/nka), registration status, sanctions designations if applicable, and jurisdiction-specific filing details such as registered agent, entity type, and dates.
