Sanctions Screening MCP Server

Free, instant pre-flight for the compliance gate. Runs the SAME TCPA / GDPR / CASL / CAN-SPAM / 10DLC gate that send_message and call_business run — but in preview mode, so NO message is sent and NO state changes. Tells you whether a (recipient, channel, message_type, content) send would be permitted BEFORE you pay for it, and if not, names the exact rule and how to remediate. Use it to de-risk a paid send the same way check_booking_link de-risks a paid booking. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Is it legal to text this US number a 20%-off promo?" -> call check_compliance({"recipient_id": "+14045550200", "content": "20% off this week only!", "channel": "sms", "message_type": "marketing", "country_code": "US"}) user: "Before you email the dentist, make sure it's allowed" -> call check_compliance({"recipient_id": "[email protected]", "content": "Do you accept Cigna? Following up on my request.", "message_type": "follow_up"}) -> then send_message({"recipient": {"id_type": "email", "id_value": "[email protected]"}, "message_type": "follow_up", "content": {"body": "Do you accept Cigna? Following up on my request."}}) WHEN TO USE: Call this the moment before send_message or call_business when there is any chance the send is regulated — anything tagged marketing, any SMS to a US number (10DLC), any message to an EU/UK (GDPR) or Canadian (CASL) recipient, or any content you are unsure about. It is free and sub-100ms, so run it as a guard: if legal=true, proceed to send_message with confidence; if legal=false, fix the cited blocker instead of burning a paid, rejected send. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not treat a legal=true as a permanent license — the gate re-runs at send time, so a fresh opt-out between preview and send still blocks. Do not use it to check two-party voice recording consent (that is evaluated at call time in the voice adapter, not here). It is not a substitute for send_message; it never delivers anything. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~15ms

Free cross-border trade screening of the DESTINATION and the PARTIES. IT DOES NOT CLASSIFY THE PRODUCT: the product argument is recorded and echoed back, never checked against any export-control list, so a controlled item to an unrestricted destination returns no findings and reason_code 'partial' -- never 'clear'. This is not an export-control clearance; classify the item (HS/ECCN) against BIS/EU/UK controls yourself. Given a product and destination country (and optionally an HS code, origin country, and a list of parties to screen), returns: (a) whether the destination or any party hits an export-control or sanctions restriction, (b) the destination risk level (comprehensive_embargo / sectoral_sanctions / elevated_scrutiny / standard), (c) HS code hint if the caller provided one, (d) honest tariff guidance + official links without fabricated rates, and (e) party sanctions screening against OFAC SDN (US Treasury), the EU Consolidated list (European Commission) and the UK Sanctions List (FCDO). Acts as a MIDDLEMAN -- unifies the OFAC comprehensive-embargo map, our own indexed copies of the EU and UK lists, and OFAC SDN into one clean call. Never fabricates a tariff rate, a clear, or a restricted status. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Can we ship laptops to Iran?" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "laptop computers", "destination_country": "IR"}) user: "Screen this supplier before we import from them: Mahan Air, Iran" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "aircraft parts", "destination_country": "US", "parties": ["Mahan Air"]}) user: "Is exporting hydraulic pumps to Russia restricted?" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "hydraulic pumps", "hs_code": "8413.50", "destination_country": "RU"}) user: "Check if we can sell medical devices to Germany, supplier is ACME GmbH" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "medical devices", "origin_country": "US", "destination_country": "DE", "parties": ["ACME GmbH"]}) WHEN TO USE: Use before any cross-border trade to flag embargoed destinations, screen exporters/importers/freight forwarders against sanctions lists, and get authoritative links to the applicable tariff databases. Call this as a pre-flight check before quoting, invoicing, or shipping internationally. Covers OFAC comprehensively-embargoed countries (Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria) and significant advisory countries (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine Crimea/DNR/LNR regions). WHEN NOT TO USE: Do NOT use as a substitute for a licensed export compliance review. Do NOT use to obtain authoritative tariff rates (this tool returns guidance links, never fabricated rates). Do NOT use for purely domestic shipments where no cross-border movement is involved. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~3000ms

Retrieve the final OutcomeReceipt for a completed operation. WHEN TO USE: Use after get_status returns success/failure/partial to retrieve the full result with cost and reason codes. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for operations still in pending/executing state — use get_status first. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~50ms

Return an expected cost estimate, latency estimate, and success-probability estimate for a proposed call before execution. Returns the exact price when it is fixed, and a min/max range when the cost depends on channel or outcome. It does not promise an accuracy percentage - check cost_range. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "How much will this SMS cost me?" -> call preview_cost({"operation": "send_message", "params": {"preferred_channel": "sms"}}) user: "Estimate the cost of booking via voice fallback" -> call preview_cost({"operation": "schedule_appointment", "params": {"preferred_channel": "voice"}}) WHEN TO USE: Use before any operation when the agent is operating under a budget constraint and needs to decide whether to proceed. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use in a hot loop — cache the result for at least 60 seconds if repeating the same preview. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~100ms

Free screening of a name or entity against official sanctions lists, each fetched from the authority that issues it: the OFAC SDN list from the US Treasury (SDN.CSV plus ALT.CSV for alternate spellings), the EU consolidated financial sanctions list from the European Commission, and the UK Sanctions List from the FCDO. THE UN CONSOLIDATED LIST IS NOT SCREENED -- it carries no licence permitting commercial redistribution, so we do not claim it. ALWAYS check lists_screened on the response: it names the lists that actually ran ON THAT CALL, and a list that failed to load appears in sources_unavailable instead. reason_code is 'partial_screening' whenever any source was unavailable, never 'clear'. Returns screening_status ('hit' | 'clean' | 'candidates' | 'not_screened' -- branch on THIS, not on matched, because matched:false is also false when nothing could be screened), matched: bool, a list of matches with score, program, and source URL, and which lists were screened. Never fabricates a match or a clear -- if no match is found, explicitly names which lists were checked. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Screen this vendor before we pay them: ACME Trading LLC, Russia" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "ACME Trading LLC", "country": "RU", "type": "entity"}) user: "Is Kim Jong-un on the OFAC list?" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Kim Jong-un", "country": "KP", "type": "person"}) user: "Run a sanctions check on this person before onboarding" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Ivan Petrov", "country": "RU", "type": "person"}) user: "Do a compliance check -- is this company sanctioned?" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Mahan Air", "country": "IR", "type": "entity"}) WHEN TO USE: Use before onboarding a counterparty, processing a payment, engaging a vendor, or doing any due-diligence step that requires knowing whether a person or entity appears on official sanctions lists. Essential for agents doing business formation, vendor qualification, payments onboarding, trade compliance, or any workflow where a sanctioned counterparty is a legal or reputational risk. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use as a substitute for full KYC/AML screening -- this covers sanctions lists only, not PEP (Politically Exposed Person) databases, adverse media, or credit risk. Do not treat a negative result as a compliance clearance; it is informational only. Do not use for bulk screening of large lists -- each call is a live API query. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~2000ms

Service health probe: runs 6 internal checks and reports how many passed. Confirms the server is up and responding - it does NOT probe each tool individually. Use to verify connectivity before production use. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Run a health check before I send the broadcast" -> call self_test({}) WHEN TO USE: Use at agent startup, before high-stakes task sequences, or after receiving unexpected errors to check if the service is degraded. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not call more than once per minute in production. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~200ms

Query the current state of any in-flight async operation by operation_id. WHEN TO USE: Use to poll the state of a pending_async operation when no webhook callback has arrived or to check progress. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not poll more frequently than once per 10 seconds — use webhook delivery for real-time updates instead. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~50ms

Free, live lookup of a company official registry record. Queries the GLEIF global LEI registry (primary, 2.6 million legal entities worldwide) and SEC EDGAR (US public companies) to return the official legal name, LEI, entity status, jurisdiction, registered address, and registry authority. Never fabricates: if the company is not found in these free registries, returns an honest not_found with the sources that were queried. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Is Apple Inc a real registered company?" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Apple Inc", "country": "US"}) user: "Look up the LEI for Volkswagen AG" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Volkswagen AG", "country": "DE"}) user: "Verify this LEI: 529900HNOAA1KXQJUQ27" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Volkswagen AG", "lei": "529900HNOAA1KXQJUQ27"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when you need to verify that a company exists as a registered legal entity and retrieve its official registry details -- before signing a contract, qualifying a vendor, validating a counterparty, or populating a due-diligence record. Accepts a legal name plus optional country filter or a direct LEI for a precise lookup. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use to verify private companies not registered with GLEIF or SEC. Do not use as an exhaustive fraud-detection tool; this is a first-pass existence check against free public registries, not a full KYC screen. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~800ms
