CBPR+ Structured Address Lint

Runs the same checker as our npm package on a Node.js runtime that pip installs for you (nodejs-wheel-binaries) - no system Node.js needed. Your files are checked locally.

Find the ISO 20022 postal addresses your correspondent bank will repair by hand, before you send the message

Node 18+. The same 9 rules as the VS Code extension, from a terminal or CI.

• Lints any ISO 20022 XML in your editor against all 9 CBPR+ postal-address rules, hybrid rules live since 2025-11-22 and the unstructured cutover deferred 2026-08-27 - 6 errors and 3 warnings - and names each failing PstlAdr block on its own line. On the sample dirty.xml that is 13 findings, 9 errors and 4 warnings, across all 4 party address blocks; on clean.xml it is 0. The 6 errors: (1) unstructured_only, address held only in AdrLine with no TwnNm and no Ctry; (2) no_country, structured block with no Ctry; (3) no_town, hybrid block with no TwnNm; (4) dup_in_adrline, a value in both a dedicated element and an AdrLine; (5) adrline_max2, more than 2 AdrLine occurrences; (6) ctry_code, a Ctry that is not 2 upper-case letters. The 3 warnings: adrline_70, charset, bldgnb_in_strtnm.
• --rules lists every rule

With a licence ($29 once)

• Exports a dated CBPR+ address audit file, CSV and Markdown, covering every ISO 20022 message in the workspace, with the rule citation per finding, so the evidence leaves the editor as a file you can hand to your correspondent bank, your migration programme or your auditor. $29 once, one licence key per person or CI seat.

A correspondent bank charges $15 to $40 to repair one cross-border payment by hand; the average fee for a rejected or repaired payment is reported at about $12.
