Execute internal transfers in Claude Desktop

Trigger `create_internal_transfer` to move capital between your accounts instantly. No more manual entry or switching between bank tabs. Your agent handles the request once you provide the account IDs. It’s a direct command that updates your state without the usual friction of web banking portals.

Monitor transaction history with Claude Desktop

Use `list_transactions` to pull raw ledger data directly into your conversation. Parse specific entries using `get_transaction` to see the full record. This gives you immediate visibility into cash flow. You'll see exactly what cleared and what's pending, allowing your agent to flag discrepancies in real-time.

Handle verification workflows via Claude Desktop

Run `list_verifications` to audit current KYC/KYB status for any organization. Use `get_verification` when you need to check the details on a specific hold. It removes the guesswork from compliance checks. You get the actual data returned from the API, letting you decide the next move based on current facts.
