Quick Start Guide

Get up and running in under 5 minutes. Bankr's free tier gives you a few free messages a day on the bankr.bot terminal, over a 24-hour window that starts with your first message. The skill, Agent API, plugins, and CLI need a Bankr Club subscription or Max Mode with LLM credits — current pricing and limits are on the Access page on docs.bankr.bot.

Just Want to Chat and Trade? (No Code)

Sign in with your X account at bankr.bot — that creates your wallet — then just type what you want:

"what's the price of ETH?"
"buy $5 of BNKR on base"
"what are my balances?"

You can also tag @bankrbot on X or message @bankr_ai_bot on Telegram — it's the same agent, same wallet, everywhere. See Using Bankr on X & Telegram for how those surfaces work. New to all of this? Read New to Bankr? Start Here.

Building an Agent?

There are four ways to connect your own agent or app to Bankr. All of them need an API key from bankr.bot/api-keys (new keys come with Agent API and Wallet API access turned on), and the Club or Max Mode access described above.

  • Bankr Skill (fastest): tell your agent (Claude Code, OpenClaw, Cursor, or any skills-compatible framework) to install the bankr skill from https://github.com/BankrBot/skills/tree/main/bankr. It can then trade, check balances, and launch tokens.

  • Agent API: send natural-language prompts over REST from your own code, then poll for the result. See the Agent API docs. To execute exact transactions without the AI, see the Wallet API.

  • Claude Plugins: for Claude Code users. See Using Bankr from Claude Code.

  • Bankr CLI: install with npm install -g @bankr/cli, run bankr login, and start prompting from your terminal. Keep it current with bankr update. See the CLI docs.

For step-by-step setup with code samples, see the Quick Start on docs.bankr.bot.
