At a glance

Reads the connected Link account, the cards and bank accounts saved in its wallet, its saved shipping addresses, and the status of existing spend requests.

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • What payment methods

What it does

Check Link Wallet is an agent skill from stripe/link-cli, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Reads the connected Link account, the cards and bank accounts saved in its wallet, its saved shipping addresses, and the status of existing spend requests. Use when the user asks which Link account is connected, what payment methods or addresses Link has saved, or whether a Link purchase has been approved yet.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Let your agents spend on your behalf. Your payment credentials are never exposed. You approve every purchase. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks which Link account is connected
  • What payment methods
  • Addresses Link has saved
  • Whether a Link purchase has been approved yet

Example prompts

  • “Use the check-link-wallet skill to read the connected Link account, the cards and bank accounts saved in its wallet, its saved shipping addresses…”
  • “/check-link-wallet”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0569cc0. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Check Link Wallet loads about 683 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 354 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~683

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
Reads the connected Link account, the cards and bank accounts saved in its wallet, its saved shipping addresses, and the status of existing spend requests. Use when the user asks which Link account is connected, what payment methods or addresses Link has saved, or whether a Link purchase has been approved yet.

Read-only inspection of the connected Link account through the Link MCP server. Nothing here moves money or changes a spend request.

To actually buy something, use the complete-link-purchase skill instead.

Tools

QuestionTool
Which account is connected?get_userinfo
What cards and bank accounts are saved?list_payment_methods
What shipping addresses are saved?list_shipping_addresses
What purchases are pending or approved?list_spend_requests
What is the status of one purchase?get_spend_request

Call only the tool that answers the question. Do not sweep all five to build a picture the user did not ask for.

Spend request status

list_spend_requests returns only active requests by default — those in created, pending_approval, or approved. Pass includeHistory when the user is asking about something that already finished or expired.

The statuses mean:

  • created — exists, but the user has not been asked to approve it yet.
  • pending_approval — waiting on the user. They approve in the Link app.
  • approved — ready to spend against.
  • Expired and terminal states are only visible with includeHistory, and cannot be spent against. A user who still wants the purchase needs a fresh one, raised with request_virtual_card — but only if they ask for it. Do not offer to re-run a purchase off the back of a status question.

get_spend_request returns the status of a single request by id. Do not pass the include parameter here. include: ["card"] and include: ["shared_payment_token"] return live payment credentials, and they belong only in the moment of paying, which is the other skill's job.

What to expose

  • Summarize. Do not dump raw JSON or object ids unless the user asks.
  • Payment methods: brand, type, and last four only. Never a full number.
  • Shipping addresses: city and postcode by default. Give the full address only if the user asks for it.
  • Never surface tokens, credentials, or internal identifiers as an aside.

When the account is not connected

An authorization error from any of these tools means the user has not connected Link in Cursor, or the connection has lapsed. Say so plainly and let them reconnect. Do not retry in a loop, and do not try another tool hoping for a different answer.
