## 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 taifoon-risk-address-c5e8384c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check the risk level of wallet address 0x1234abcd...5678 on Base (chain ID 8453)? I want to know if it's safe to interact with before I send funds.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need on-demand, pay-per-call blockchain address risk scoring with a quality guarantee — you are only charged for validated answers. Prefer this over generic risk APIs when you need coverage on Base or other EVM chains and want marketplace-sourced, graded intelligence rather than a single static dataset.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed 0x address returns an error
- Unsupported chainId results in no available sellers
- No seller is able to answer confidently — call fails and is not charged
- Network timeout or coordination layer failure
- Address has no on-chain history and cannot be assessed

## How this service works

risk.address, sold by Taifoon: 1 seller behind this wall, the best-ranked one answers; code checks the answer before you are charged (a failed answer is not charged), Jev grades it after. Price 0.010000 USDC.

## Output

A risk assessment of the specified blockchain address, including risk classification or score indicating whether the address is safe, suspicious, or high-risk, sourced from the best-ranked seller and validated before being charged.
