## 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 vino-views-allowance-risk-check-52b27ac6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before sending that 50 USDC payment to this destination address, run an allowance risk check to confirm it's within my approved spending ceiling and give me the evidence receipt.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an autonomous agent needs a deterministic, read-only pre-flight check before executing a financial transaction — especially in x402 payment flows where auditability and policy compliance are required. Prefer this over generic risk APIs when you need an evidence receipt (SHA-256) for audit trails and when the verdict must be based on spend allowance and destination approval ceilings.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'input' object returns a validation error
- Invalid HTTP method (not POST, PUT, or PATCH) returns a schema rejection
- Malformed body type enum value causes request rejection
- Payment amount exceeds approval ceiling returns a policy-fail verdict
- Network or service unavailability returns a 5xx error

## How this service works

Source-backed API reports for wallet-enabled agents. Pay per successful call in Base USDC.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a status field (e.g. 'ok' or a risk verdict) and an evidence_receipt object containing a SHA-256 hash that serves as a tamper-proof audit record of the policy evaluation.
