## 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 tbs-sanctions-screening-adbd965f
```

Example prompt: Can you screen the name 'Dmitry Ivanov' against OFAC and UN sanctions lists — filter for individuals only, return up to 20 matches, and only show results with a score of at least 0.7?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a low-cost, programmatic, fuzzy-match sanctions screen against both OFAC SDN and UN consolidated lists in a single call, especially when building automated compliance workflows or agent pipelines that require sub-cent per-check pricing via USDC payment. Prefer this over manual lookups or more expensive KYC platforms when you need alias-aware matching with configurable score thresholds and don't require real-time official verification.

## Known failure modes

- Missing 'name' parameter returns a 400 error
- Name exceeding 200 characters may be rejected
- min_score or limit values outside allowed ranges return validation errors
- No matches found returns an empty matches array with match_count 0
- Fuzzy matching may produce false positives requiring human verification
- Payment failure via x402 results in 402 response before screening occurs

## How this service works

Sanctions name screening for AI agents in one sub-cent call: fuzzy-match a person or organization name against the OFAC SDN and UN consolidated lists (aliases included) and get scored matches with list, program, entity type and source reference. USDC-payable via x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the queried name, matched entries from OFAC SDN and/or UN consolidated lists (each with name, list, type, fuzzy match score, sanctions program, source reference, and any matched alias), total match count, timestamp, lists checked with entry counts, a request ID, and a legal disclaimer.
