LibreChat

One block in librechat.yaml.

LibreChat loads MCP servers from librechat.yaml when it starts. Add BankBridge there and restart.

Read-only. Your agent can see balances and transactions, and nothing can move money, pay a bill, or place a trade. BankBridge doesn’t store your transactions. How it’s secured · Try it with sample data first

Step 01

Add BankBridge to librechat.yaml.

librechat.yaml

mcpServers:
  bankbridge:
    type: streamable-http
    url: https://bankbridge.money/api/mcp
    requiresOAuth: false
    headers:
      Authorization: "Bearer bbk_your_api_key_here"

Restart LibreChat after editing the config.

requiresOAuth: false skips OAuth detection, because the header already carries your key. The key in this file is shared by everyone on your LibreChat server, and it reads the bank accounts of whoever owns it, so use this on a server only you use.

Step 02

Restart and verify.

Restart LibreChat. The log should show [MCP] Initialized with 1 configured server and 12 tools. In a chat, select bankbridge in the MCP servers menu, then ask:

try this

list my bank accounts and balances

To test the config before you sign up, use the key bbk_demo. It returns sample data.

Troubleshooting

Client connects but shows 0 tools.

Usually the client is caching an old config, or you're on a mode that doesn't expose tools (Ask/Edit vs Agent, for example).

Fix: Fully quit + relaunch the host app. In VS Code Copilot, switch to Agent mode.

401 Unauthorized on every call.

The API key is missing, typo'd, or got revoked. Check the Authorization header starts with `Bearer ` (note the space) and ends in a key you still own.

Fix: Paste a fresh key from Settings.

Tools return a NO_CONNECTIONS warning.

You haven't linked a bank yet.

Fix: Visit Connect a bank . The bank-connect flow opens automatically, ~30 seconds.
