# Screen a name against sanctions/PEP/wanted/debarment lists

`POST /compliance/watchlist`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://mru-oracle.com`
- URL: `https://mru-oracle.com/compliance/watchlist`
- Auth: none declared

Case-insensitive substring match of a person or organisation name (and aliases) across sanctions, PEP, wanted, debarment, crypto-entity and vessel lists; each hit is labelled exact or partial.

Price: $0.002 USDC per successful call, paid with x402 on Base mainnet (see x-payment-info and the 402 response).

## Headers

- `PAYMENT-SIGNATURE` string

## Request body

- object
  - `name` string, required: Person or organisation name, 2-200 characters
  - `list` 'all' | 'sanctions' | 'pep' | 'wanted' | 'debarment' | 'crypto' | 'vessel' | 'ransomware' | 'mauritius': Restrict to one list
  - `limit` integer: Max hits

## Response `200`

Success

- object

## Other responses

- `402`: Payment required. The x402 v2 challenge is in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header: sign one of its `accepts` and repeat the request with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. The JSON body repeats the requirements in x402 v1 format for discovery scanners; after a failed settlement it is { error, details } instead.
