Banco MCP — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, install
Connects an AI agent to Brazilian Open Finance data for account, spending, card, loan, and investment questions. Access is read-only.
claude mcp add --transport http banco-mcp https://api.mcp.ai/bancoWhat Banco MCP does
Banco MCP connects an AI agent to Brazilian Open Finance through MCP over HTTP. After a bank is linked, the agent can read accounts, balances, transactions, credit card bills, investments, and loans. It also exposes sync status, category data, connection lists, and consent removal through 13 tools.
Supported institutions include Itaú, Nubank, Santander, Banco do Brasil, Caixa, XP, and other Brazilian banks and brokers. The first request opens a browser for magic-link authentication, and at least one bank must be connected before financial data can be queried. The server cannot move money because its access is read-only.
For Claude Code, add it with claude mcp add --transport http banco-mcp https://api.mcp.ai/banco. Other clients that support MCP over HTTP can use https://api.mcp.ai/banco as the server URL.
What it helps with
- check balances across linked accounts
- filter spending by category and date
- review open credit card bills
- inspect an investment portfolio
- list loan agreements
Example prompts for the agent
- Show my restaurant spending for this month.
- Compare this month’s open card bill with last month’s.
- Check how my investments are split between shares and funds.
