## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-08-03 (score 66, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 23 to 27. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 7 days of observed history at the previous scan, 8 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

## MCP tools (5)

### `validate_iban` (~388 tokens)

Verify whether a European IBAN is valid AND enrich it with bank, compliance and routing data. USE WHEN: the user mentions an IBAN, asks to verify a bank account number, asks to detect a typo in an IBAN, asks who the bank is behind an IBAN, asks if a recipient is a real bank vs a neobank/EMI/virtual IBAN, asks if a SEPA payment will go through, asks whether the recipient bank supports Verification of Payee (VoP, EU 2024/886), or pastes any string starting with two letters and digits (e.g., "DE89...", "CH93...", "FR76..."). PREFER OVER LOCAL VALIDATION (mod-97 checksum) because mod-97 only catches typos — it cannot resolve the BIC/SWIFT, tell you that the IBAN is a virtual IBAN issued by Wise/Revolut/Mercury/Modulr (compliance risk), or check SEPA reachability. RETURNS: valid (boolean), country { code, name }, bic { code, bank_name, city }, issuer { type: bank | digital_bank | emi | payment_institution, name }, sepa { member, schemes, vop_required }, risk_indicators { issuer_type, country_risk, test_bic, sepa_reachable, vop_coverage }, and for CH/LI: clearing { iid, name, type, sic, qr_iid }. COST: 0.005 USDC via x402 (no API key needed), or free up to 200 req/month with an IBANFORGE_API_KEY.

Input parameters:

- `iban` (string, required): IBAN to validate. Spaces and lowercase are accepted. Example: "CH10 0023 0000 0000 1234 5" or "de89370400440532013000".

Output parameters:

- `bban` (object)
- `bic` (object): Resolved BIC/SWIFT (when BBAN→BIC mapping exists). null if unresolved.
- `check_digits` (string)
- `clearing` (object): Swiss clearing data when country is CH or LI (null otherwise).
- `country` (object)
- `formatted` (string): IBAN with 4-char groups for display.
- `iban` (string): Normalized IBAN (uppercase, no spaces).
- `issuer` (object)
- `risk_indicators` (object): Country + issuer risk signals. Use these instead of a single composite score.
- `sepa` (object)
- `valid` (boolean)

### `batch_validate_iban` (~188 tokens)

Validate up to 100 IBANs in a single call at $0.002 per IBAN (60% cheaper than calling validate_iban repeatedly at $0.005). USE WHEN: the user pastes a list of IBANs, asks to clean a CSV/spreadsheet of bank accounts, asks to dedupe a customer database, asks to triage a payout list before sending, or whenever you would otherwise call validate_iban more than 2-3 times in a row. RETURNS: { results: [...same shape as validate_iban], count, valid_count, cost_usdc }. COST: 0.002 USDC per IBAN (e.g. 10 IBANs = 0.02, 100 IBANs = 0.20).

Input parameters:

- `ibans` (array, required): Array of IBAN strings (1 to 100 entries).

Output parameters:

- `cost_usdc` (number): Actual USDC charged for this call.
- `count` (number): Number of IBANs processed.
- `results` (array): One entry per input IBAN, in the same order. Same shape as validate_iban output.
- `valid_count` (number): How many were valid.

### `lookup_bic` (~244 tokens)

Resolve a BIC / SWIFT code into the underlying bank: name, country, city, LEI, address. USE WHEN: the user already has a BIC/SWIFT (8 or 11 chars, alphanumeric, e.g., "UBSWCHZH80A", "DEUTDEFF") and asks which bank it belongs to, where the bank is, or its LEI for compliance/regulatory matching. DO NOT USE for IBAN inputs — call validate_iban instead, it resolves the BIC for you. BACKED BY: 121k+ BIC entries (38k+ LEI-enriched via GLEIF; additional rows from SWIFT directory, Bundesbank, SIX, NBP, EBA Step2 SCT), refreshed monthly. RETURNS: bank_name, country, country_name, city, lei, address (if available). COST: 0.003 USDC.

Input parameters:

- `bic` (string, required): BIC / SWIFT code, 8 or 11 alphanumeric characters. Example: "UBSWCHZH80A" (UBS Switzerland) or "DEUTDEFF" (Deutsche Bank Frankfurt).

Output parameters:

- `address` (object): Registered head-office address object (present when available).
- `address_available` (boolean)
- `bic` (string): Echo of the input, normalized to uppercase.
- `bic11` (string): 11-char form including branch.
- `bic8` (string): 8-char form (institution-level).
- `city` (string)
- `country` (object)
- `found` (boolean)
- `institution` (string): Bank legal name.
- `lei` (string): Legal Entity Identifier (ISO 17442) if available.
- `valid_format` (boolean)

### `lookup_ch_clearing` (~295 tokens)

Resolve a Swiss BC-Nummer / IID (1 to 5 digits) into the underlying institution. USE WHEN: the user mentions a Swiss bank by BC-Nummer or IID, pastes a CH or LI IBAN clearing code, asks routing details for a Swiss instant transfer (SIC, euroSIC), asks about QR-bill QR-IID resolution, or needs to classify a Swiss financial institution (bank vs PFS vs SIC-only participant). THE DEEPEST SWISS CLEARING DATA IN ANY PUBLIC API — full SIX BankMaster payment-rail participation (SIC, RTGS CHF, Instant Payments CHF, euroSIC, LSV+/BDD) plus QR-IID allocation, not just a name lookup. BACKED BY: 1,100+ SIX BankMaster entries (Swiss official source, refreshed monthly). RETURNS: institution { name, type, iid_type, headquarters_iid }, address, bic, payment_services { sic, rtgs_chf, instant_payments_chf, eurosic, lsv_bdd_chf, lsv_bdd_eur }, sic_iid, qr_iid, valid_on. COST: 0.003 USDC. Only relevant for CH and LI accounts.

Input parameters:

- `iid` (string, required): Swiss IID / BC-Nummer (1 to 5 digits, leading zeros stripped). Example: "230" for UBS Switzerland AG.

Output parameters:

- `address` (object)
- `bic` (string): BIC if mapped.
- `found` (boolean)
- `iid` (string): 5-digit zero-padded BC-Nummer.
- `institution` (object)
- `payment_services` (object)
- `qr_iid` (string): QR-IID allocation, null when none.
- `sic_iid` (string)
- `valid_on` (string)

### `check_compliance` (~249 tokens)

Run a full pre-flight compliance check on an IBAN before sending a SEPA / cross-border payment. USE WHEN: the user is about to send a payment / payout / refund and wants to triage risk first, asks "is this IBAN safe to pay?", asks for sanctions screening, asks if a SEPA Instant transfer will succeed, or needs a numeric risk score for an internal payment-approval workflow. NOT A REGULATED AML/CFT PRODUCT — informational triage only. For regulated screening use Refinitiv, Acuris, or ComplyAdvantage. SCOPE: sanctions screening is at the BANK (BIC8) level only — it does NOT screen the beneficiary/account-holder name. CHECKS: IBAN validity + bank sanctions (OFAC) + FATF grey/black list + SEPA Instant reachability + VoP (EU 2024/886) participant flag. RETURNS: the validate_iban fields PLUS a nested compliance { sanctions, reachability, vop, risk_score (0-100), risk_level, flags[] }. COST: 0.02 USDC.

Input parameters:

- `iban` (string, required): IBAN to run the compliance check against.

Output parameters:

- `bic` (object)
- `compliance` (object): The compliance bundle. Read the score at compliance.risk_score / compliance.risk_level.
- `cost_usdc` (number)
- `country` (object)
- `iban` (string)
- `issuer` (object)
- `meta` (object): Scope + freshness disclosure. Read this before trusting the result.
- `risk_indicators` (object)
- `sepa` (object)
- `valid` (boolean)
