Moonbanking

Moon Banking API

Query the Moon Banking API at https://api.moonbanking.com/v1 for data about every bank on Earth, as well as aggregated bank data at the world and country levels. Includes data about banks, countries, stories, votes, search, world overview, and more.

Setup & Authentication

• Set the environment variable:
  MOON_BANKING_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
  (A Moon Banking Pro plan is required to get your API key. Once you have a plan, you can create an API key in your Moon Banking dashboard.)

• Every request must include the header:
  Authorization: Bearer $MOON_BANKING_API_KEY

• Use exec with curl -s (silent mode) and pipe to jq for clean, readable JSON output.

• If jq is not installed, remove | jq . — the agent can still parse raw JSON.

Standard curl pattern

curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $MOON_BANKING_API_KEY" \
     "https://api.moonbanking.com/v1/ENDPOINT?param=value&another=val" | jq .

Best Practices & Tips

• Use jq filters to extract useful fields, e.g.:

  | jq '.data[] | {name, overall_score, rank, country?.name}'
  

• Error handling:

  • 401/403 → check or set MOON_BANKING_API_KEY
  • 404 → invalid ID or code
  • 429 → rate limit (wait and retry)

• Pagination: Use starting_after / ending_before from previous responses.

• Always summarize results helpfully (top banks, country rankings, popular stories, etc.) instead of dumping raw JSON.

• Chain multiple exec calls for complex questions.

Use this skill whenever questions or discussions involve bank information of any kind, including, but not limited to, rankings, reviews, country comparisons, customer experiences, or global banking insights.
