## 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 verifik-ofac-global-sanctions-screening-7fe98c38
```

Example prompt: Can you check if 'Alejandro Ramirez Torres' appears on the OFAC sanctions list or any global sanctions watchlist so I know whether it's safe to do business with them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic, pay-per-call OFAC and global sanctions screening without a subscription, particularly for onboarding checks, transaction monitoring, or AML compliance workflows where per-query micropayment via x402/USDC is acceptable.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or malformed query parameter returns an error
- No matches found returns empty or null result set
- Payment not completed results in 402 response blocking the query
- Network timeout if screening database is slow to respond
- Ambiguous name with many partial matches may return noisy results
