## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative U.S. government travel risk assessments — specifically the official State Department advisory level and risk summary — rather than aggregated travel blogs or insurance risk ratings. Ideal for agents building travel screening tools, corporate travel policy enforcement, or helping users evaluate destination safety with a single standardized source.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country code/name returns an error or empty result
- minLevel outside 1–4 range may return an error
- Data may lag behind real-time State Department updates if cache is stale
- Countries not covered by State Department advisories may return no result

## How this service works

Pay-per-call data for AI agents: skill-ranked Polymarket traders, FDA drug and hospital data, oil markets, Wikipedia attention, travel delay risk and SEC filings, plus a daily Morning Brief. Paid in USDC on Base with x402, no API key or account.

## Output

Returns the U.S. State Department advisory level (1=Exercise Normal Precautions, 2=Exercise Increased Caution, 3=Reconsider Travel, 4=Do Not Travel), a plain-language summary of the advisory, and the primary risk factors cited. When querying by minLevel, returns a list of all countries at or above that threshold with their respective levels and summaries.
