tbank-mcp
Unofficial MCP server for T-Bank (Т-Банк, ex-Tinkoff) mobile banking: accounts, cards, transfers, bill pay, grocery ordering, tickets & travel — for Claude Code and any MCP client.
Install / Use
claude mcp add icyberdeveloper -- npx -y github:icyberdeveloper/tbank-mcpIf the server publishes to npm under a different name, use that package instead — check the repo README.

Our assessment of tbank-mcp
tbank-mcp scores 87/100 on our quality scale, 490th of 941 AI & Machine Learning skills we index.
Its MCP Server is 21 KB long, well organised into 30 sections with 14 code examples: a thorough specification that gives an agent plenty to work with.
It has 44 GitHub stars, so there is little community track record yet; judge it on its content.
Maintenance, license and trust
- The repository was last updated 33 days ago, so tbank-mcp is actively maintained.
- It is released under the MIT license, a permissive license that allows use, modification and commercial use with attribution.
- Its trust signals score 97/100, with no cautions. These come from repository metadata, not a code audit — read the skill file before letting an agent act on it.

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.icyberdeveloper/tbank-mcp -->T-Bank (Т-Банк) MCP — mobile banking API server for Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, and other MCP-capable agents.
The buttons register the tbank-mcp command — run pip install tbank-mcp first.
Features
- 90 tools: accounts, cards, documents, operations, grocery ordering, cinema and concert tickets, train and flight booking, hotel search, orders, transfers (including payment by bank requisites, from a scanned invoice QR), messenger, investments
- A skill for every vertical, entered through the
tbankrouter skill: grocery order, tickets, travel, transfer, bill pay, cards & documents, messenger, budget analysis, invest advisor, login - Pinned CA trust: system store + the Russian Trusted Root CA (Минцифры), which no
OS ships and every
*.t-bank-app.ruhost needs — that is most of the hosts this MCP talks to. Shipped intbank_mcp/ca/roots/, pinned by SHA-256. Leaf/intermediate rotation needs no action; a root rotation is a PEM drop intotbank_mcp/ca/roots/(orTBANK_EXTRA_CA). The verify bundle is (re)generated from that material into~/.local/share/tbank-mcp/bundle.pem;TBANK_CA_BUNDLErelocates it — it is a write target, not a curated input, so extra roots go in viaTBANK_EXTRA_CA. Certificates are never learned from the network — see the header oftbank_mcp/tls.py. - Grocery checkout: search → cart → order → pay (proven end-to-end)
- Secure login: password/PIN stay OUT of the LLM context (local CLI or env var)
Quick Install
As a Claude Code plugin (server + every skill in one step)
/plugin marketplace add icyberdeveloper/tbank-mcp
/plugin install tbank@tbank-mcp
/reload-plugins
There is no store to be admitted to — a marketplace is just a git repo with a
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json, and anyone can host one.
The venv and the Python dependencies are created on the server's first start by
bin/tbank-mcp: a plugin manifest cannot run install steps (install is not a
field in the schema), so the launcher does it once and every later start goes
straight to the server. Only the grocery checkout needs a browser, and 150 MB is
not something to download behind your back — install it yourself if you want that
flow:
~/.claude/plugins/cache/tbank-mcp/tbank/*/.venv/bin/python -m playwright install chromium
From PyPI
pip install tbank-mcp
tbank-mcp-login +7XXXXXXXXXX # first login: SMS code + password in YOUR terminal, not the LLM
claude mcp add tbank -- tbank-mcp
tbank-mcp-skills # optional: the Claude Code skills, into ~/.claude/skills
The tbank-mcp console script starts the stdio server; the pinned CA roots, the
flows reference and the skills all ship inside the wheel, so it runs from anywhere.
tbank-mcp-login is the same login CLI as the repo's login_cli.py — both write
the session to the same file the server reads. tbank-mcp-skills installs the
skills for Claude Code (default ~/.claude/skills, --target for elsewhere) and,
unlike a plain cp, first removes stale copies under retired names — re-run it
after upgrades. The grocery checkout browser stays opt-in here too:
python -m playwright install chromium.
Manually (clone, no plugin)
git clone https://github.com/icyberdeveloper/tbank-mcp.git
cd tbank-mcp
python -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
python -m playwright install chromium
# MCP server:
claude mcp add tbank -- ./.venv/bin/python -m tbank_mcp.server
# Skills — a COPY, so it does not follow the repo. Re-run after every pull, or
# the installed skills quietly describe an older version of these tools. The
# installer also removes stale copies under RENAMED skill names, which a plain
# cp never does — the agent would keep loading the stale one:
.venv/bin/tbank-mcp-skills
🔒 Login — the password never reaches the agent
The password and the PIN are secrets, and they are not put into the model's context. Logging in is done by a local script, or through an environment variable.
Option 1 (recommended): the local CLI
The script asks for the password itself, via getpass, so it is never echoed to the
terminal and never passes through the agent. Its prompts are in Russian, as shown:
cd tbank-mcp
.venv/bin/python login_cli.py +7XXXXXXXXXX
# [1/3] login(+7XXXXXXXXXX) ...
# SMS отправлена
# [2/3] SMS-код: **** ← the code from the SMS (hidden input)
# [3/3] Пароль (не отображается): **** ← your password (hidden input)
#
# ✓ ГОТОВО! Сессия сохранена: ~/.local/share/tbank-mcp/session.json (права 0600).
# MCP читает этот же файл — путь совпадает без ручной настройки.
Or with the password in the environment, for CI and scripts:
TBANK_PASSWORD="your-password" .venv/bin/python login_cli.py +7XXXXXXXXXX
Then start Claude Code. The agent picks up the saved session and works without the password, which never enters the LLM context.
Option 2: through the agent (convenient, but the LLM sees the password)
If you are content to hand the password to the agent:
> login(+7XXXXXXXXXX)
> [SMS code] 1234
> confirm_otp("1234")
> [bank asks password]
> confirm_password("YourPassword")
⚠️ Note: the password ends up in the model's context and in call logs. For an account you care about, use Option 1.
Both options need the SMS code typed in either way, so there is no unattended
login. TBANK_PASSWORD (and TBANK_PIN) are read only by the login CLI
(tbank-mcp-login / login_cli.py) — the
env example above — and never by the MCP server or the LLM. TBANK_PHONE is not
read anywhere: the phone is always a command-line argument.
Работа с MyT (рабочий календарь и парковка) переехала в отдельный MCP: tbank-myt. Другой аккаунт, другая сессия, свой
login_cli.py— здесь их больше нет.

"args": ["-m", "tbank_mcp.server"],

With a pip install tbank-mcp the whole entry shrinks to "command": "tbank-mcp" —
no paths, no cwd.
Use with Cursor
Click the Install MCP Server button above, or open the Customize page from
Cursor's sidebar to add the server, or create ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) /
.cursor/mcp.json (per-project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"tbank": { "command": "tbank-mcp" }
}
}
Cursor renders MCP elicitation, so the payment-confirmation buttons work in chat.
Use with Cherry Studio
Settings → MCP → MCP Servers → Add: type stdio, command tbank-mcp, no
arguments. Save, enable the server, wait for the healthy status.
Cherry Studio does not render MCP elicitation yet (open request CherryHQ/cherry-studio#9145), so reading works but the money tools refuse to execute there — by design, not by accident.
Use with Goose
CLI: goose configure → Add Extension → Command-line Extension, name
tbank, command tbank-mcp. Desktop: sidebar → Extensions → Add custom
extension, same values.
Goose renders elicitation in both Desktop and CLI; its confirmation forms time out after 5 minutes, so answer payment confirmations promptly.
Reading works in any MCP client. Paying needs a client that renders MCP
elicitation — the money tools confirm the sum with a button the user presses
(«Перевести/Отмена», «Оплатить …?»), and a client without that capability is refused
before anything is sent (grocery_checkout refuses there at any threshold; its
dry_run=True preview, which creates nothing, still works). Hermes/Telegram and
Claude Code (≥ 2.1.76) render it; Claude Desktop does not. See
TBANK_CONFIRM_ABOVE under Security.

get_data(section) covers dozens of read sections: subscriptions, credit_schedule, statements, loans, invest_accounts, pension, etc. (invest_portfolio is a tool of its own, not a section — see the docstring for the full list.)
Grocery tools (grocery_search, grocery_plan_order, grocery_add_to_cart, grocery_set_cart, grocery_cart, grocery_checkout) require app_id + point_id taken from grocery_stores() — there's no silent default store, so add/cart/checkout always operate on the same cart, instead of reporting an empty one right after something was added to a different store's.
Skills
