## 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 uk-company-officers-directors-lookup-companies-house-d6d96005
```

Example prompt: Who are the current directors and officers of Rolls-Royce Holdings plc — can you pull their names, roles, appointment dates, and nationalities from Companies House?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured director/officer data for a specific UK company, especially for KYB, AML, due diligence, or corporate research workflows. Prefer this over a general web search when you need machine-readable, authoritative Companies House data including appointment/resignation dates and nationality. Pair with the UK company profile and PSC endpoints for a full KYB picture.

## Known failure modes

- Company not found for given name query — returns empty or error if query string matches no Companies House record
- Invalid company number — returns error if ?number= is malformed or unregistered
- Ambiguous company name — may return multiple matches or the wrong company if name is not unique
- Rate limit or payment failure — 402 payment required if x402 payment header is missing or insufficient
- Companies House data lag — recently appointed or resigned officers may not yet be reflected
