Overview

What changes when Claude can work in your PocketSmith account

PocketSmith is personal finance software built around budgeting and forecasting. With this connector, you ask Claude about your money the way you would ask a friend who knows your accounts: how the month is going, what you pay every year in subscriptions, where the savings account is heading. Claude reads your live data, explains it, and can also tidy it up, which is why the write tools deserve a look.

Know where the month stands. financial_health_snapshot returns net worth, spending pace, budget traffic lights and action items, so Claude can answer in one reply whether the month is on track.

Find recurring charges. find_recurring_expenses detects subscriptions and recurring bills and gives their annual cost totals.

Tidy up transactions. Claude searches and filters with list_transactions, checks your category hierarchy, then edits payee, category, labels, notes or splits with update_transaction.

What it will not do: nothing runs by itself, so no alert fires when a bill lands; Claude acts only while it answers. Fifteen tools on the sheet are named only under grouped "Manage" lines for accounts, institutions, categories, events and attachments, with no description of their own, so this page does not say what they do. For scheduled alerts, look at automation platforms from our Integrations hub.

Vocabulary

Five words before you connect

Claude's vocabulary for this connector, in one minute.

Connector
The link you set up once between Claude and an account you already have, so Claude can work on it while it answers you.
Tool
One named thing the connector lets Claude do. Claude picks the ones it needs on its own; the directory lists them by name.
Authorization
PocketSmith's own sign-in screen, where you hand Claude the access it will use. Granted once per person, and it can be withdrawn.
Approval
The confirmation Claude waits for before doing something that changes an account, shown in the conversation when it matters.
MCP
The shared standard connectors are built on, the piece that lets an assistant talk to an outside service like PocketSmith.
Connect

Connect PocketSmith Complete Access to Claude in three steps

  1. 01

    Find the connector

    Open Claude's settings, go to Customize then Connectors, and look for PocketSmith Complete Access. On a Team or Enterprise workspace, an Owner or Primary Owner has to enable it for the organisation before members can sign in one by one.

  2. 02

    Start the connection

    Click Connect on its row, then sign in to PocketSmith in the window PocketSmith opens itself. If the link breaks later, use Disconnect and connect again.

  3. 03

    Read the authorization screen

    Read PocketSmith's authorization screen before you accept. It belongs to PocketSmith, not to Claude, and it sets what the access covers. PocketSmith adds that you can revoke it at any time from its authorised applications page.

Tools

The 66 tools, sorted by what they do

PocketSmith Complete Access gives Claude 66 tools: 40 that read your account, 11 that change something in it, and 15 no official source describes.

Forty read, eleven write and fifteen have no individual description. PocketSmith's tool table describes the first two groups; the last fifteen appear only under grouped headings. Names stay exactly as Claude shows them.

What Claude reads (40)

40 tools

Forty tools for analysis, budgets, transactions, reference data and deep links into PocketSmith, none of which alters your data.

cash_flow_forecast

Projects account balances forward and adds what PocketSmith calls danger-zone alerts, the points where a projected balance gives reason for concern. PocketSmith ties it to its forecasting engine, which it presents as the way to predict future cashflow.

When it helps
you want to know what your balances are expected to look like in the coming period.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

financial_health_snapshot

Returns an at-a-glance check-up in four parts, as PocketSmith lists them: net worth, spending pace, traffic lights per budget and action items. PocketSmith names these financial health snapshots among the ways the connector keeps your budget in check.

When it helps
you want one overview of your finances before looking at any detail.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

find_recurring_expenses

Detects subscriptions and recurring bills in your data and totals what they cost per year. PocketSmith lists finding recurring expenses among the budget tasks the connector covers, next to reviewing budget performance.

When it helps
you want to see every recurring charge and what each costs over a year.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

forecast_accuracy

Sets actual balances against forecast balances, which PocketSmith presents as a way to evaluate how reliable your budget is. It looks back at forecasts already made, where the projection tools look ahead.

When it helps
you want to know how closely past forecasts matched the balances you actually had.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_account

Opens one account in detail, including its balance and any child accounts under it. Checking balances is one of the things PocketSmith says the connector lets you do across all your accounts; this tool does it for a single one.

When it helps
a question concerns one account and its balance.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_attachment

Retrieves one receipt or document attachment stored in PocketSmith. PocketSmith describes it, together with the listing tool, as the way to view attachments; this one returns a single item rather than the whole list.

When it helps
you want to see a specific receipt or document kept in PocketSmith.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_budget

Returns budget analysis per category for the forecast period. It differs from the summary tool, which sets actuals against the budget over a date range you choose; here the period is the forecast one.

When it helps
you want each category's budget position over the forecast period.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_budget_summary

Sets expense and income actuals against what was budgeted, for a date range. The comparison covers both sides of the ledger, and PocketSmith counts reviewing budget performance among the main uses of the connector.

When it helps
you want to know how a given period compares with the budget you set for it.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_category

Looks up a single category in your hierarchy. PocketSmith groups it with the tool that lists categories, under the heading of viewing your category hierarchy, and mentions reviewing categories among the connector's uses.

When it helps
you want to check one category before analysing the spending filed under it.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_currency

Returns the reference data for one currency. PocketSmith classes it as currency reference data rather than your own financial records, and its description of the product mentions multi-currency support.

When it helps
your accounts involve several currencies and one of them needs checking.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_current_user

Shows your PocketSmith user profile and settings. PocketSmith documents it on a shared line about the user profile; this one stays on the viewing side and returns what is configured.

When it helps
you want to see how your profile and settings are configured.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_data_feeds_connection_status

Reports the sync status of your bank feeds along with provider details. Triggering a sync is a different tool, listed in the other group of this page; this one only reports on where each feed stands.

When it helps
recent transactions have not appeared and you want to check the feeds.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_event

Opens one budget forecast event. PocketSmith describes these events as recurring or one-off, and as the items that map out your future in its forecasting engine; this tool returns a single one.

When it helps
you want the details of one event your forecast relies on.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_institution

Retrieves one financial institution from your PocketSmith setup. PocketSmith describes it, together with the listing tool, as viewing financial institutions; this one returns a single institution instead of all of them.

When it helps
you want the details of one institution linked to your PocketSmith data.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_transaction

Brings up the full details of a single transaction. Where the search tool returns many lines matching a filter, this one returns everything PocketSmith records about one transaction.

When it helps
one transaction looks odd and you want all the details stored on it.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_transaction_account

Shows one transaction account. PocketSmith documents it on a shared line about viewing transaction accounts; this tool returns the details of one, where the listing tool returns all of them.

When it helps
you want to check the details of one transaction account before looking at its transactions.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

get_trend_analysis

Analyses spending trends over time, category by category. PocketSmith lists analysing spending trends across periods among the ways the connector helps keep a budget in check.

When it helps
you want to see how spending in a category has evolved over several months.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_accounts

Lists every account, either for your user or for one institution. It is the inventory the other account questions start from, and PocketSmith describes investigating patterns across all your accounts as one of the connector's uses.

When it helps
you want the full list of accounts PocketSmith holds for you.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_attachments

Enumerates the receipt and document attachments stored in PocketSmith. PocketSmith describes it, together with the single-item tool, as viewing attachments; this one returns the whole list.

When it helps
you want to see which receipts and documents are stored in your account.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_categories

Returns your category hierarchy as a whole. PocketSmith pairs it with the single-category tool under the heading of viewing your category hierarchy, and reviewing categories is among the uses it names.

When it helps
you want the structure of your categories before categorising anything.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_category_rules

Shows the auto-categorisation rules already set up in your account. PocketSmith documents it on a shared line about categorisation rules; this one returns the existing rules and nothing more.

When it helps
you want to know which categorisation rules already exist.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_currencies

Returns the full list of currencies PocketSmith uses as reference data, as opposed to the tool that looks up one currency. It is reference material, not part of your own financial records.

When it helps
you want the reference list of currencies available in PocketSmith.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_events

Lists the budget forecast events in your account. PocketSmith treats recurring and one-off events as the items that map out your future, so this list shows what the forecast is built on.

When it helps
you want to see every event the forecast takes into account.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_institutions

Lists the financial institutions in your PocketSmith setup, as opposed to the tool that opens a single one. PocketSmith describes both as viewing financial institutions, the level under which accounts sit.

When it helps
you want the list of institutions your PocketSmith data comes from.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_labels

Returns all the transaction labels in your account. PocketSmith mentions reviewing labels, alongside categories and saved searches, among what the connector lets you do.

When it helps
you want to see which labels exist before grouping transactions by one of them.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_saved_searches

Shows the transaction search filters you saved in PocketSmith. It returns the list of saved searches, which PocketSmith names among the items the connector lets you review.

When it helps
you want to find a search you already saved in PocketSmith before asking about its transactions.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_time_zones

Returns PocketSmith's time zone reference data. Like the currency list, it is reference material rather than your own records, and PocketSmith gives it no other purpose in its table.

When it helps
a question depends on which time zones PocketSmith recognises.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_transaction_accounts

Lists your transaction accounts. PocketSmith documents it on a shared line about transaction accounts; this tool returns all of them, where the single-item tool opens one.

When it helps
you want every transaction account listed before analysing spending in one of them.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

list_transactions

Searches and filters transactions by date, category, keyword or status. PocketSmith puts searching and filtering transactions in plain language first among the connector's uses, before any analysis.

When it helps
you want every transaction matching a keyword, category, status or period.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

month_end_review

Produces a full review of a period: income and expenses, savings rate, budget variance and top payees, the four elements PocketSmith lists. PocketSmith refers to these monthly reviews among the connector's budget features.

When it helps
a period has ended and you want its review in one answer.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

When it helps
you want the budget page open in PocketSmith with the right dates already set.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

navigate_to_calendar

Generates a link to the calendar of scheduled and forecast budget events and balances, with the date range carried by the link. It opens the calendar in PocketSmith itself.

When it helps
you want to see upcoming events and projected balances on PocketSmith's calendar.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

navigate_to_cashflows

Hands you a link to the Cashflows statement, the month-by-month table in PocketSmith. The link leads to the report; the figures themselves are read in PocketSmith, not in the conversation.

When it helps
you want the month-by-month table open in the app.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

navigate_to_income_expense

Points you, through a link, to the Income & Expense report, PocketSmith's profit and loss statement, with filtering, date ranges and other options set by the link.

When it helps
you want to see where your net worth has been and where it is projected to go.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

What Claude can change (11)

11 tools

Eleven tools that add, edit, link or delete. PocketSmith says deletions always wait for your explicit approval; for the rest, Claude's general rule applies.

assign_transaction_attachment

Approval: see the rule

Links an existing attachment, such as a receipt or document, to a transaction. PocketSmith describes it together with its counterpart that undoes the link.

What Claude asks for
no source describes a confirmation for this tool; Claude's general approval rule applies.
When it helps
a stored receipt belongs with a transaction that has none.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

create_category_rule

Approval: see the rule

Adds an auto-categorisation rule to your account. PocketSmith pairs it with the tool that lists existing rules, under one line about viewing and creating them.

What Claude asks for
PocketSmith documents nothing specific here; the default approval rule covers it, and you can ask Claude to check with you first.
When it helps
transactions of one kind should be categorised the same way from now on.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

create_transaction

Approval: see the rule

Adds a new transaction to your PocketSmith data. PocketSmith's description stops at that: a new transaction, recorded by Claude on your behalf.

What Claude asks for
PocketSmith publishes no step for this one; you can ask Claude to check with you first, as the vendor suggests.
When it helps
a transaction is missing and you want it entered.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

delete_forecast_cache

Asks you first

Clears the forecast cache to force PocketSmith to recalculate the budget, a step the vendor ties to bulk edits.

What Claude asks for
PocketSmith states that deleting anything always requires your explicit approval first.
When it helps
many transactions were edited at once and the budget needs recalculating.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

delete_transaction

Asks you first

Removes a transaction from your PocketSmith data. It is one of the two documented tools covered by PocketSmith's rule on deletions.

What Claude asks for
PocketSmith says any deletion waits for your explicit approval before it happens.
When it helps

Watch out
check which transaction Claude proposes to remove before you approve.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

refresh_data_feeds_connection

Approval: see the rule

a feed looks out of date and you want it synced.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

When it helps
an attachment is linked to the wrong transaction.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

update_account_display_order

What Claude asks for
PocketSmith documents no step for it; rely on Claude's general approval rule.

you want your accounts listed in a different order.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

no source describes a confirmation for this tool; Claude's default approval rule covers it.
When it helps
a transaction account needs updating.

Sourcedevelopers.pocketsmith.com · September 29, 2026 ↗

Not documented (15)

15 tools

Fifteen tools that PocketSmith only names inside grouped headings. No source describes them one by one, so we do not say what they do.

create_account

PocketSmith names this tool only inside a generic line about accounts, without saying what it does on its own. No official source documents it individually, so this page leaves it unclassified. Claude's general approval rule is the reference if it runs.

create_attachment

Listed on the directory sheet, this entry gets no description of its own anywhere: the vendor bundles it into a single heading about attachments. We do not read its behaviour from the name. Approvals follow the default rule set out below.

create_category

Nothing published explains this tool by itself. PocketSmith mentions it alongside two siblings under one short heading on categories, and that is all. Without a real description, it stays undocumented here, covered by Claude's standard confirmation behaviour. The name alone is not evidence.

create_event

The vendor's table groups this name with others under a heading on budget events and stops there. Lacking any sentence that describes it, we treat it as undocumented. See the approvals section for the rule that governs every such call.

create_institution

Absent from any individual description, this one appears only inside PocketSmith's grouped row on institutions. We decline to say what it touches. If Claude ever calls it, the general approval rule of the next section is what applies. No official source documents it individually.

delete_account

No official source documents this tool individually: PocketSmith lists the name in a shared "Manage accounts" row with two other names, and says nothing about this one alone. This page does not classify it; Claude's general approval rule is the reference if it runs.

delete_attachment

Official sources give this entry a name and a grouped heading on attachments, not a description. We therefore do not classify it and do not read its effect from the name. Claude's general approval rule, set out below, is what applies to any call.

delete_category

Only a grouped heading on categories in PocketSmith's table refers to this tool, so no source describes what it does. This page makes no claim about it. Pending documentation, the general approval rule in the next section is the framework that applies.

delete_event

We found this entry in a combined row on budget events, with no sentence of its own. Its effect is left unstated here. If it runs, Claude's default confirmation behaviour, described in the approvals section, is the one we can point to.

delete_institution

Without an individual description from PocketSmith or Anthropic, this name stays undocumented here: it appears only in a grouped row on institutions. Ask PocketSmith support for anything more precise; meanwhile Claude's general approval rule is the one that applies to any call.

update_account

Mentioned solely within the vendor's grouped row on accounts, this entry has no published explanation. We will not guess its behaviour from wording. Treat it under Claude's default confirmation rule, explained in the approvals block. The vendor's pages contain nothing more on it.

update_attachment

Documentation stops at a shared heading on attachments; this specific tool is never described. It therefore sits in the undocumented group of this page. Any call to it falls under the general approval behaviour of Claude. No individual description exists in any official source.

update_category

PocketSmith's reference bundles this name with two others and gives the group one short label. No official text describes the tool itself, so we leave it unexplained, with Claude's standard approval rule as the only framework. Nothing beyond that heading is on record.

update_event

Published material refers to this tool only through a group heading on budget events. That is not a description, and we do not stretch it into one. The approvals section below says what Claude does by default. Its precise effect remains unpublished.

update_institution

Here too, the vendor's table offers a grouped heading and nothing individual. No source documents this entry, and this page does not interpret it. Should it run, Claude's general approval rule applies, as for every tool on the page. Its precise role is not on record anywhere public.

Approvals

What Claude asks before acting

By default, Claude stops and asks for your go-ahead before any action it takes on an account for you. PocketSmith adds its own promise: deleting anything always requires your explicit approval first.

PocketSmith also says you can ask the assistant to check with you before any other change, and that the read-only mode is the option for anyone who wants a guarantee that nothing is altered. On Team and Enterprise, workspace owners decide whether a member may let some actions through without a fresh prompt, and can limit what a connector may do across the organisation. Claude works with the rights of the person who connected, and PocketSmith notes the assistant never sees your password. Official per-tool labels appear only inside a connected account's settings.

Plans

Which plans include it

None of the 819 sheets in the official directory shows availability by plan. For PocketSmith, as for every other connector, that answer is published nowhere.

What is published is the general rule: remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables the connector for the organisation before members sign in. For the current state of this one, check its sheet in the official directory. Worth knowing: only PocketSmith documents this connector; no Claude help article covers it.

Limits

Where this connector stops

A connector is not an automation. Claude calls these tools while it replies to you; nothing fires when a transaction arrives or a budget is exceeded.

The directory's verification badge is not a security audit, and Anthropic states on every sheet that it does not choose the tools a publisher exposes or vouch that they behave as described. This connector reaches real financial data and can edit it, so the authorization screen and the approvals deserve your full attention. PocketSmith's documentation, the only source on this connector, adds the points below.

FAQ

Questions about the Claude PocketSmith Complete Access connector

01What can Claude do with the PocketSmith Complete Access connector?
Claude can analyse and tidy your PocketSmith finances from a conversation. It runs health snapshots, month-end reviews, spending comparisons, recurring expense searches and forecasts of cash flow and net worth. It reads budgets, transactions, accounts, categories, events, attachments and bank feed status, and hands you deep links to the matching PocketSmith pages. Eleven documented tools add, edit, link or delete records, and fifteen more have no description of their own.
02Can Claude edit or delete my PocketSmith data?
Yes. The documented write tools add and edit transactions, create category rules, attach or detach receipts, reorder accounts, update a transaction account and your profile, refresh bank feeds, delete a transaction and reset the forecast cache. Fifteen other tools sit under grouped headings about accounts, institutions, categories, events and attachments, without individual descriptions. If you want no changes at all, PocketSmith offers a separate read-only mode as a custom connector.
03Does Claude ask before changing something in PocketSmith?
For deletions, PocketSmith states that your explicit approval is always required first. For other changes, Claude's general rule applies: by default it asks for confirmation before acting on an account for you, and PocketSmith adds that you can ask the assistant to check with you before any change. On Team and Enterprise workspaces, owners decide whether members can skip some prompts and can restrict the connector for everyone. Deletions are the one case with a firm promise.
04Which Claude plans include PocketSmith Complete Access?
No official source publishes plan availability connector by connector, and PocketSmith is no exception. The general rule is that remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile, and that on Team and Enterprise an Owner or Primary Owner must enable a connector first. The connector's sheet in the Claude directory is the only place showing its current status for your account, so look there.
05Does Claude see everything in my PocketSmith account?
Claude works with the access you grant on PocketSmith's screen, under your own rights. In this full access mode that covers your accounts, transactions, budgets, categories, labels, saved searches, attachments and bank feed status. PocketSmith states that the assistant never sees your password, only a token scoped to the mode you chose. You can revoke that access whenever you like from PocketSmith's authorised applications page. Read the authorization screen before accepting.
06Is there a read-only way to use PocketSmith with Claude?
Yes, but not through this listing. PocketSmith runs a read-only mode with 40 tools for viewing and analysis only. It is not in the Claude directory, so you add it by hand as a custom connector using the address PocketSmith publishes. PocketSmith presents it as the choice for anyone who wants a guarantee that the assistant can never change their data. The directory entry covered on this page is the full access mode.
07Should I use Claude or an automation tool with PocketSmith?
They do different jobs, so choose by use rather than ranking. Claude with PocketSmith answers questions and tidies data when you ask: how the month looks, which subscriptions to cancel, where savings are heading. It does not watch your accounts or react when a bill arrives. A weekly email summary or an alert when a category goes over budget is the work of an automation platform running without anyone in the conversation.
