The embedded: source extracts this adapter from the binary — no git clone, fully offline.

how to mock the Plaid API locally

Install stunt, paste the service block above into stunt.yaml, run stunt up — then point your client at localhost instead of Plaid API. It works offline, keeps state across requests and restarts, and every response is synthetic: the route shapes, status codes, pagination, and webhook delivery follow the real Plaid API 2020-09-14 surface — the data is fake, the behavior is real.

api surface (13)

generated from the adapter manifest — exactly what boots, nothing more · covers 4% of the real API's 294 routes (derived from sdk plaid-node @ 32.0.0 (floor))

13 routes

SDK-verified behaviors (4)

  • ✓link/token/create mints a session
  • ✓sandbox public_token -> exchange -> item with accounts
  • ✓accounts/balance/get over the SDK's typed response
  • ✓transactions/sync cursor round-trip

Not implemented (5)

  • No /auth/get (account and routing numbers)
  • No legacy POST /transactions/get endpoint
  • No /institutions/search endpoint
  • No /item/webhook/update or /item/token/invalidate
  • No liabilities, assets, investments, or income products

Differs from the real API (3)

  • X-Plaid-Signature JWT-style webhook signature is documented but never enforced
  • fire_webhook SYNC_UPDATES_AVAILABLE doubles as transaction mutation (one posted, one removed)
  • client_id/secret credentials are presence-checked only, never validated
