description: IBANforge operates an official remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP, plus a stdio server
  published to npm as `ibanforge-mcp`. The HTTP transport answers a full handshake and tool calls with
  NO credentials — the provider offers 10 free tool calls per IP per day as a taster, returning the complete
  paid response.
