Strike Banking

Context-aware guide for Strike banking MCP tools. Use $ARGUMENTS for the specific banking operation needed.

Available Strike Banking Tools

The MCP server includes tools for Strike banking operations. These tools move real money — always confirm with the user before executing.

Typical Flows

ACH Deposit (fund Strike account):

1. create_ach_payment_method — link bank account
2. create_deposit — initiate ACH deposit
3. Wait for settlement (1-3 business days)

ACH Payout (send to bank):

1. create_ach_payment_method — link destination bank
2. create_originator — set up payout originator
3. create_payout — create payout request
4. initiate_payout — execute the payout (MOVES MONEY)

Wire Transfer:

• Similar to ACH but uses wire payment method
• Faster settlement, higher fees

Safety Guardrails

• ALWAYS confirm before executing any tool that moves funds (initiate_payout, create_deposit)
• Display the amount, currency, and destination before confirming
• Strike supports multi-currency: USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, BTC, USDT
• Exchange operations use exchange_currency tool (separate from banking)

Environment Setup

• Requires Strike API key with banking permissions
• Strike API base URL: https://api.strike.me/v1 (prod) or https://api.dev.strike.me/v1 (sandbox)
• Use sandbox for testing banking flows

Common Issues

• Insufficient permissions on Strike API key
• Payment method not verified yet
• Payout amount exceeds balance
• ACH routing number validation failures
