- Receipt itemization — Paste a receipt, get an itemized split transaction with tax allocation automatically distributed across line items.
- Bank reconciliation (beta) — Import a bank CSV, fuzzy-match against YNAB, detect missing or mismatched transactions, and apply bulk fixes.
- 35 YNAB tools — Full coverage plus scheduled transactions and deterministic period analytics.
- Write safety by default — Preview mode requires a short-lived, single-use confirmation bound to the exact validated request.
- Smaller tool profiles — Choose core, read-only, or full at startup without dynamic registration.
- Delta sync — Fetches only changed data since the last request, keeping things fast.
- Markdown or JSON — All read tools support response_format: human-readable markdown tables (default) or structured JSON.
- MCP-native — Structured outputs, annotations, completions API, and resource templates.
