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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00018 | $0.00382 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00191 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
strike-banking 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 7d 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
Context-aware guide for Strike banking MCP tools. Use $ARGUMENTS for the specific banking operation needed.
Available Strike Banking Tools
The MCP server includes tools for Strike banking operations. These tools move real money — always confirm with the user before executing.
Typical Flows
ACH Deposit (fund Strike account):
create_ach_payment_method— link bank accountcreate_deposit— initiate ACH deposit- Wait for settlement (1-3 business days)
ACH Payout (send to bank):
create_ach_payment_method— link destination bankcreate_originator— set up payout originatorcreate_payout— create payout requestinitiate_payout— execute the payout (MOVES MONEY)
Wire Transfer:
- Similar to ACH but uses wire payment method
- Faster settlement, higher fees
Safety Guardrails
- ALWAYS confirm before executing any tool that moves funds (
initiate_payout,create_deposit) - Display the amount, currency, and destination before confirming
- Strike supports multi-currency: USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, BTC, USDT
- Exchange operations use
exchange_currencytool (separate from banking)
Environment Setup
- Requires Strike API key with banking permissions
- Strike API base URL:
https://api.strike.me/v1(prod) orhttps://api.dev.strike.me/v1(sandbox) - Use sandbox for testing banking flows
Common Issues
- Insufficient permissions on Strike API key
- Payment method not verified yet
- Payout amount exceeds balance
- ACH routing number validation failures
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.

strike-banking is a skill published in the GitHub repository refined-element/lightning-enable-mcp (9 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 382 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
