> x402 Trust Layer Risk Gate Scanner is a paid API for AI agents from x402trustlayer.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.08/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

## 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-trust-layer-risk-gate-scanner-d9ce46e1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run a risk gate scan on an incoming GET request to check if it's allowed — I need to know whether the request passes compliance before we proceed.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a lightweight, paid compliance decision on whether a specific HTTP request (GET, HEAD, or DELETE) should be allowed to proceed, particularly within an x402-native payment infrastructure context. Prefer this over general-purpose firewalls or API gateways when working within a Web3 trust layer ecosystem that uses on-chain settlement to gate access.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not settled — request blocked with 402 Payment Required if x402 settlement fails
- Invalid HTTP method — only GET, HEAD, DELETE are accepted; POST/PUT/PATCH will be rejected
- Missing required 'type' or 'method' fields in input object returns validation error
- Request flagged as disallowed returns ok:true but allowed:false with a blocking summary
- Network or infrastructure timeout returns an error response with ok:false

## How this service works

68 paid x402 trust infrastructure APIs: guard, semantic escrow, mandate diff, certified seller network, KYM, mandates, compliance, disputes, and orchestration.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with three fields: 'ok' (boolean indicating request success), 'allowed' (boolean indicating whether the scanned request passes the risk gate), and 'summary' (a plain-language string explaining the compliance decision). Delivered after x402 micropayment settlement of $0.08 USDC.
