# ofac — how to use (mcp.ai)

Checks whether a name is on OFAC (US) sanctions lists, including SDN and Non-SDN, for compliance and AML due diligence. Platform-hosted, no credentials, pay per query with prepaid credit.

## Option A — via MCP (recommended)
Remote MCP endpoint (HTTP, streamable): `https://api.mcp.ai/p_ofac?ms=1787191620000`
Add it as a custom/remote MCP connector in your client (Claude, Cursor, VS Code…), then authenticate when prompted. Once connected, ask the agent to use the server's tools (e.g. `ofac_consultar`).

## Option B — via direct REST API

Auth: `Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…` — create a workspace API key at https://mcp.ai/settings/api-keys
Discover endpoints: `GET https://api.mcp.ai/api/ofac/_endpoints`
