Protocol Banks — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Protocol Banks do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_payment_status, compare_chain_fees, create_invoice, create_payment, estimate_gas, execute_payment and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Protocol Banks working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 267 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Protocol Banks as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Protocol Banks?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Protocol Banks need an API key?
No. Protocol Banks completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
Is Protocol Banks open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 3 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
