At a glance

Deploy BankMCP™ to a small server so it works in claude.ai and on the phone: Railway or Fly.io, volume, domain, setup page, connector.

  • Works in 6 steps: Choose the host → Railway → Fly.io or Docker → …
  • The user says deploy bankmcp
  • SKILL.md covers 1. Choose the host, 2. Railway, 3. Fly.io or Docker and 4. Setup page, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls railway, fly and docker

What it does

Deploy is an agent skill from noskillish/bankmcp. Deploy BankMCP™ to a small server so it works in claude.ai and on the phone: Railway or Fly.io, volume, domain, setup page, connector. Use when the user says "deploy bankmcp", "host it", "/deploy", "use it on my phone", or "add it to claude.ai".

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment and LLM inference and serving. It works with Model Context Protocol, Docker, Ollama and OpenAI. The repository describes itself as: BankMCP™: your AI can now read your bank. Self-hosted, read-only MCP server for your own bank accounts via open banking (Enable Banking). Standard MCP; tested with Claude and… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says deploy bankmcp
  • Use it on my phone
  • Add it to claude.ai

Example prompts

  • “deploy bankmcp”
  • “host it”
  • “/deploy”
  • “/deploy”

Requirements

  • Docker

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Choose the host
  2. Railway
  3. Fly.io or Docker
  4. Setup page
  5. Connector
  6. Bank

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f28fac6. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • railway
    • fly
    • docker
    • claude

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • railway.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Deploy loads about 744 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 386 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~744

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Deploy BankMCP™ to a small server so it works in claude.ai and on the phone: Railway or Fly.io, volume, domain, setup page, connector. Use when the user says "deploy bankmcp", "host it", "/deploy", "use it on my phone", or "add it to claude.ai".

Deploy BankMCP™ to a server

Guide one person through a hosted deployment. Prefer Railway unless the user names another host. Run what you can with the CLI; the user does the dashboard clicks, their bank login and their claude.ai settings.

1. Choose the host

Ask which they have: Railway, Fly.io, Render, or their own box with Docker. If none, recommend Railway (https://railway.com) and wait until they have an account.

2. Railway

If the railway CLI is installed and logged in (railway whoami), do it from the terminal:

railway init
railway add --service bankmcp --repo noskillish/bankmcp --branch main
railway volume add -m /data
railway domain --port 8080

Otherwise, in the Railway dashboard: New Project, Deploy from GitHub repo noskillish/bankmcp; add a Volume mounted at /data; Settings, Networking, Generate Domain on port 8080.

Report the public address. No variables are needed; the server detects its own address on Railway.

3. Fly.io or Docker

Fly: from a clone of the repo, fly launch --copy-config --no-deploy (the repo's fly.toml already mounts /data and checks /healthz), fly volumes create data --size 1, fly deploy. Render: the Deploy to Render button in the README uses render.yaml; a persistent disk needs a paid instance. Docker: docker run -d --name bankmcp --restart unless-stopped -p 8080:8080 -v bankmcp-data:/data ghcr.io/noskillish/bankmcp:latest (or docker compose up -d from a clone), then a TLS proxy in front and BASE_URL set to the public https address.

4. Setup page

Tell the user to open the public address. It shows a setup page with the values for Enable Banking's form. Walk them through registering the application as in the setup skill (environment, redirect URL, description, privacy and terms URLs, key download), then entering the application id, the .pem file and a password of twelve characters or more. The status page then shows the connector URL.

5. Connector

claude.ai (personal Pro or Max account): Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, name BankMCP™, URL https://<address>/mcp, leave OAuth fields empty, Add, Connect, enter the password.

Team or Enterprise workspaces only allow Owners to add custom connectors; say so if the button is missing.

Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http bankmcp https://<address>/mcp, then /mcp to sign in.

6. Bank

In the connected client: "connect my bank". Same flow as locally; the redirect returns to the server's /callback.

Notes

  • Changing the password later logs every client out; that is the kill switch.
  • Set NOTIFY_WEBHOOK_URL to a Slack incoming webhook for sign-in alerts and watch notifications.

Questions about Deploy

What does Deploy do?

Deploy BankMCP™ to a small server so it works in claude.ai and on the phone: Railway or Fly.io, volume, domain, setup page, connector. Deploy is an agent skill from noskillish/bankmcp.io, volume, domain, setup page, connector.

When should I use Deploy?

Deploy fits situations like: the user says deploy bankmcp; use it on my phone; add it to claude.ai.

How do I install Deploy in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add noskillish/bankmcp --skill deploy -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (plugin/skills/deploy in noskillish/bankmcp) into .claude/skills/deploy in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Deploy in Codex?

Run `npx skills add noskillish/bankmcp --skill deploy -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (plugin/skills/deploy in noskillish/bankmcp) into .agents/skills/deploy in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Deploy in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add noskillish/bankmcp --skill deploy -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/deploy, .gemini/skills/deploy, .github/skills/deploy and .opencode/skills/deploy in your project.

What does Deploy need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Deploy needs the command-line tools its instructions call (railway, fly, docker and claude). Our summary lists: Docker.

Does Deploy access the network?

SKILL.md names 1 domain. As links in the text: railway.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Deploy safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Deploy use?

Deploy is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Deploy use?

About 744 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Deploy?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Deploy: Chatqna Docker Deploy (open-edge-platform/edge-ai-libraries, 168 stars), Chatqna Troubleshoot (open-edge-platform/edge-ai-libraries, 168 stars), vLLM Model Serving (Orchestra-Research/AI-Research-SKILLs, 13k stars) and Cognee Docker Setup (topoteretes/cognee, 32k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
