Challenge

Stablecoin Settlement Guardrails with OpenAI Agents SDK and GPT-5 Pro

Emerging stablecoin payment rails require real-time compliance validation and automated fraud screening before final on-chain settlement. You will build an autonomous settlement verification agent that evaluates cross-border transaction risks and enforces strict sanctions policy rules, targeting sub-second decision latencies and zero compliance leaks.
