## 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 x402-datashop-sanctions-screener-04cfa321
```

Example prompt: Can you run a sanctions check on 'Viktor Petrov' across all five lists — EU, OFAC, UN, UK, and French — using the default 0.85 threshold and tell me if there's a match?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, multi-list sanctions screening across the five major global sanctions regimes (EU, OFAC SDN, UN, UK FCDO, French) in a single API call with fuzzy name matching. Ideal for compliance workflows, KYC/AML checks, and vendor due diligence where you need a scored verdict rather than a raw database dump. The daily-refreshed snapshot and configurable fuzzy threshold make it suitable for both strict exact matching and broader possible-match detection.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'name' parameter returns 400 error
- Name shorter than 2 or longer than 120 characters is rejected
- Invalid threshold value outside 0.6–1.0 range returns validation error
- Invalid list codes in 'lists' parameter return an error
- Network or Railway deployment downtime returns 5xx
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance prevents access

## How this service works

Screen a name against the five official sanctions lists (EU, US OFAC SDN, UN, UK FCDO, French asset freezes) from a snapshot refreshed daily, with per-list dates. Query: name=NAME (optional threshold=0.6-1.0, lists=eu,ofac,un,uk,fr). Returns scored matches with entity type and programs, and a verdict: match, possible_match or no_match.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a top-level verdict ('match', 'possible_match', or 'no_match'), a list of scored candidate matches each with entity type, sanctions programs, and the list they appear on, plus per-list snapshot dates indicating when each sanctions list was last refreshed.
