Claude Code

One command, and your terminal reads your books

Claude Code speaks remote MCP directly. Nothing to install and no key to paste: the browser opens on Orla's consent page.

Start free All clients

Server URL: https://app.orla.finance/api/mcp/personal

Setup

Add it from the shell, sign in with /mcp

A line in the terminal adds it, and the sign-in happens on a page in your browser.

The steps

Where it is added: In the current project by default, or for every project with --scope user.
Authenticate: Run /mcp inside Claude Code and pick Orla; the browser opens on Orla's consent page and the terminal picks the connection up.
As a plugin instead: claude plugin install orla@orla brings the same personal connection with four bookkeeping skills beside it. The commands are on the skill page.

terminal

# the remote server, no package to install
claude mcp add --transport http orla \
  https://app.orla.finance/api/mcp/personal

# then, inside Claude Code
/mcp

If the menus have moved, Claude Code's MCP documentation is current for the client itself.

What to ask

Ask between two commits

Every figure comes from your own books, and is recomputed each time you ask.

What did I spend on hosting last quarter?
Which rows this month have no category?
Which bills are due this week, from the bills report?
Book yesterday's 40 EUR taxi to Transport.

Consent page, in Claude

You tick which spaces the client may reach, and one row in the app revokes it later. Card numbers and IBANs stay masked unless you switch that on.

The boundary

It reads and records. It does not pay

An agent that pays is a different connection, with its own wallet and its own limits.

What it cannot do: Pay anyone. The payment tools are not in the list it is given, and are refused by name if asked.
What it costs: Nothing, and it takes none of the agent seats in your plan. Reading is unmetered; what it records comes out of your plan's monthly allowance of agent writes, and the free plan has a small one.

Other clients
