What This Skill Does
Provides API access to a self-hosted Firefly III personal finance instance. Covers creating and listing transactions, managing accounts and balances, setting budget limits, tracking savings goals via piggy banks, and automating categorization with rules.
All financial data stays on your own server, so transaction history is not shared with any third-party cloud service.
When to use it
- Log a grocery purchase to a category after shopping
- Check how much of a monthly food budget has been spent
- Set up a recurring rent payment for automatic tracking
- Create a vacation savings goal with a target date and amount
- Search past transactions by description to find a specific charge

- 2Retrieve the list of budgets to locate the 'Food' budget ID
- 3Fetch the current spent and limit amounts for that budget period
- 4Return the transaction confirmation and budget progress
