# Safe Action Pre-flight Check

> Safe Action Pre-flight Check is a paid API for AI agents from safe-action.agentutil.net, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Performs a three-part safety pre-flight check (risk assessment, reversibility check, timing awareness) before an AI agent executes a destructive or irreversible action

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 safe-action-agentutil-net-6d8b98c6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before you go ahead and delete those production database records, run the safe-action pre-flight check to assess the risk level, whether it's reversible, and whether now is the right time to do it.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint whenever an AI agent is about to execute a destructive, irreversible, or high-stakes action and needs a structured safety gate before proceeding. Ideal for agentic workflows where an LLM might autonomously delete files, wipe databases, send bulk communications, or take actions that are hard to undo. Prefer this over ad-hoc LLM reasoning about risk because it provides a consistent, structured three-part framework.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid skill name field returns a validation error
- Malformed request body returns 400-level error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC results in 402 Payment Required
- Service unavailable returns 5xx with no safety assessment

## How this service works

Three-part safety pre-flight before destructive or irreversible actions — risk assessment, reversibility check, and timing awareness.

## Output

Returns a three-part safety evaluation: a risk assessment indicating the danger level of the proposed action, a reversibility check indicating whether the action can be undone, and timing awareness guidance indicating whether proceeding now is appropriate.
