# Binance-MCP Development Guidelines
> A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Binance.com API. Offers standardized access to spot trading, wallets, staking, simple earn, convert, mining, algo trading, VIP loans, NFTs, pay, copy trading, dual investments, C2C/P2P, fiat ops, and rebates. Built in TypeScript/Node.js. Manages auth, requests, and errors for AI agents/devs.
## Project Overview
Binance-MCP is built with TypeScript. See the README for full documentation.
### Terminal Management
- **Always use background terminals** (`isBackground: true`) for every command so a terminal ID is returned
- **Always kill the terminal** after the command completes, whether it succeeds or fails — never leave terminals open
- Do not reuse foreground shell sessions — stale sessions block future terminal operations in Codespaces
- In GitHub Codespaces, agent-spawned terminals may be hidden — they still work. Do not assume a terminal is broken if you cannot see it
- If a terminal appears unresponsive, kill it and create a new one rather than retrying in the same terminal
