MoneyMatter — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Connects your personal finance tracker to AI agents for analyzing expenses, accounts, and investments. Helps monitor budgets and loans through a remote HTTP endpoint.
claude mcp add --transport http moneymatter https://mcp.moneymatter.app/mcpWhat MoneyMatter does
This server bridges AI agents with the MoneyMatter personal finance system through a remote HTTP endpoint. The assistant inspects your accounts, categorized transactions, budget limits, and debts. Net worth calculations also incorporate investment portfolios with daily asset prices, loans, and vehicles.
You can host MoneyMatter on your own hardware via Docker Compose on port 8080 or rely on the hosted cloud service. The MCP connection targets https://mcp.moneymatter.app/mcp. Without an active MoneyMatter account or self-hosted deployment, the remote server cannot retrieve financial records.
What it helps with
- Check account balances and overall net worth calculations
- Filter transactions by category, tag, or payee
- Monitor budget limits and track loan payoff status
- Inspect stock and cryptocurrency values in your base currency
Example prompts for the agent
- Summarize my spending breakdown by category from MoneyMatter for this month
- How much money remains in my dining out budget?
- Check the current valuation of my stock and crypto portfolios
