validate_iban | Verify whether an IBAN from any of the 89 IBAN countries is valid AND enrich it with bank, compliance and routing data. USE WHEN: the user mentions an IBAN, asks to validate an IBAN and identify the issuing bank, asks to detect a typo in an IBAN, asks who the bank is behind an IBAN, asks whether an IBAN was issued by a traditional bank vs a neobank/EMI/virtual-IBAN provider, asks whether the recip params: iban* |
batch_validate_iban | Validate up to 100 IBANs in a single call. Paid per call in USDC via x402, it costs $0.002 per IBAN instead of $0.005 per validate_iban call; on an API key or a credit pack each IBAN uses one request or credit, the same as one validate_iban call. USE WHEN: the user pastes a list of IBANs, asks to clean a CSV/spreadsheet of bank accounts, asks to dedupe a customer database, asks to triage a payout params: ibans* |
lookup_bic | Resolve a BIC / SWIFT code into the underlying bank: name, country, city, LEI, and registered head-office address (where available). USE WHEN: the user already has a BIC/SWIFT (8 or 11 chars, alphanumeric, e.g., "UBSWCHZH80A", "DEUTDEFF") and asks which bank it belongs to, where the bank is, or its LEI for compliance/regulatory matching. DO NOT USE for IBAN inputs — call validate_iban instead, it params: bic* |
check_compliance | Run a pre-flight compliance triage on an IBAN before sending a SEPA / cross-border payment. USE WHEN: the user is about to send a payment / payout / refund and wants to triage risk first, asks whether the payee's bank or its country is under sanctions, asks if a SEPA Instant transfer can reach the bank, or needs a numeric risk score for an internal payment-approval workflow. NOT A REGULATED AML/CF params: iban* |
validate_payment_reference | Validate a structured payment reference and, when an IBAN is supplied, decide whether the two may legally travel together. USE WHEN: assembling a payment instruction from an invoice, a QR-bill or a remittance advice; whenever a Swiss IBAN and a reference appear together (the pairing rule is what most integrations get wrong); or when the user pastes an "RF..." string, a 27-digit number, a +++123/45 params: reference*, reference_type, iban |
check_swiss_qr_bill | Check a Swiss QR-bill payload, the text a QR-bill's code carries (starts with SPC), rule by rule, each finding citing the SIX document it comes from. USE WHEN: an agent, an ERP or an accounting tool holds a scanned or generated QR-bill and must know before paying or issuing it whether it is well-formed, whether the reference type matches the IBAN (QRR needs a QR-IBAN, IID 30000-31999), and above a params: payload* |
check_postal_address | Check a structured ISO 20022 postal address against a payment rail's published address rules, rule by rule, each verdict citing the document it comes from. USE WHEN: assembling a payment instruction (pain.001, a Fedwire message, a T2 transfer) with a creditor or debtor address, to check conformity with the named document BEFORE submitting. Timetables differ: SPS 2026 in force 14 Nov 2026 requires params: scheme*, address* |
lookup_ch_clearing | Resolve a Swiss BC-Nummer / IID (1 to 5 digits) into the underlying institution. USE WHEN: the user mentions a Swiss bank by BC-Nummer or IID, pastes a CH or LI IBAN clearing code, asks routing details for a Swiss instant transfer (SIC, euroSIC), asks about QR-bill QR-IID resolution, or needs to classify a Swiss financial institution (bank vs PFS vs SIC-only participant). EVERY IID OF THE SIX BANK params: iid* |
send_feedback | Report a problem or a need directly to the IBANforge operators: incorrect validation result, stale or missing BIC/bank data, latency, or anything blocking you from using or PAYING for the service (missing network, unclear pricing, quota shape). USE WHEN: a result looks wrong, data you need is missing, or you hit a wall (quota, payment, capability) and want it fixed. This tool is free and does NOT params: error_type*, notes*, endpoint, expected, got, contact, agent |
request_api_key | Start the process that gives your human a free IBANforge API key, without any e-mail address. The key does not unlock this session: it works once your human puts it in the MCP client configuration and reconnects, or sends it to the REST API, so tell them where it goes when you hand it over: `config_line` (returned by poll_api_key) for Claude Code with the npm package; for the hosted server https:/ params: client_name, reason |
poll_api_key | Collect the API key once a human has approved the request opened by request_api_key. USE WHEN: you have called request_api_key and shown the code to your human. HOW TO CALL IT: leave `device_code` empty to reuse the last request from this session. The server usually waits up to thirty seconds before answering, and sometimes answers at once when it is busy — either way, calling it once per minute i params: device_code |
Entries describe changes in tool definitions. They are not statements about a server, its quality or its author. The grade measures how the tool definitions fit model providers (token cost, schema compatibility, confusable names) as scored by the ToolFit engine at the time of the listing. JSON: append .json.
