## 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 sitecheck-uk-company-lookup-5978956c
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the Companies House record for EXAMPLE HOLDINGS LIMITED — I need to see their directors, persons with significant control, registered office, and whether their accounts are overdue?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, up-to-date UK company registry data including officers, PSCs, filings, and compliance status. Prefer this over general web search when you need machine-readable, authoritative data sourced directly from Companies House. Ideal for due diligence, KYC, supplier verification, or compliance workflows involving UK-registered entities.

## Known failure modes

- Company number not found — returns empty or error response
- Multiple candidates returned when searching by name (up to 5 matches)
- Company name search returns no match if name is misspelled or abbreviated differently
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 protocol
- Companies House API downstream outage causing delayed or failed response
