What This Skill Does
Connects to Akaunting, a self-hosted open-source accounting platform, via REST API. Enables creating transactions, managing accounts and categories, and automating bookkeeping through a CLI or API calls.
Self-hosted setup means financial data stays on your own infrastructure, unlike cloud accounting SaaS tools.
When to use it
- Log a client payment as income from the command line
- Record an office expense without opening the web UI
- Pull a list of all transactions for a given category
- Create a new product or service item in the catalog
- Automate recurring expense entries via scripts
