Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Bankr Agent - Error Handling scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Bankr Error Handling

Resolve Bankr API errors and authentication issues.

Authentication Errors (401)

Symptoms

  • HTTP 401 status code
  • "Invalid API key" or "Unauthorized" message

Resolution

Present these setup instructions to the user:

Step 1: Create an API Key

Visit https://bankr.bot/api to create a new API key

Step 2: Set Environment Variable

# Add to shell profile (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc)
export BANKR_API_KEY=bk_your_api_key_here

Step 3: Restart Claude Code

Close and reopen the terminal/Claude Code session

Important: Do NOT retry when authentication fails. User must fix API key first.

Common Job Failures

Error Cause Resolution
Insufficient balance Not enough tokens Check balance, reduce amount
Token not found Invalid symbol/address Verify token exists on chain
Slippage exceeded Price moved too much Retry or try smaller amount
Transaction reverted On-chain failure Check transaction details
Rate limit exceeded Too many requests Wait and retry

HTTP Status Codes

Code Meaning Action
400 Bad request Check prompt format
401 Unauthorized Fix API key (see above)
402 Payment required Ensure wallet has BNKR on Base
429 Rate limited Wait and retry
500 Server error Retry after delay

Troubleshooting Checklist

  1. API Key: Set, starts with bk_, Claude Code restarted after setting
  2. Network: Internet working, api.bankr.bot reachable
  3. For Trading: Wallet has sufficient balance, token exists on chain

Reporting Errors to Users

  1. State what went wrong simply
  2. Provide specific fix steps
  3. Avoid technical jargon
  4. Suggest alternatives

Example:

Your Bankr API key is not configured. To set it up:
1. Visit https://bankr.bot/api to create an API key
2. Set BANKR_API_KEY in your environment
3. Restart Claude Code
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
