Finance Intelligence MCP Server

[Python Version] [FastMCP] [License: MIT] [MCP Specification] [Database]

Finance Intelligence MCP is a production-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants (like Claude, Cursor, and others) to securely manage and analyze personal finances through natural language.

Released under the MIT License and designed to be extended with additional finance tools.

🔍 Overview

Unlike standard cloud-based personal finance apps, Finance Intelligence MCP keeps all financial data under your absolute control.

• No Accounts / Subscriptions: Direct connection to your private database with zero SaaS dependencies.
• Zero Telemetry: Your financial logs never go to external analytic APIs.
• Full AI Context: Your AI assistant can query history, check budget status, make charts, and answer financial questions instantly.

💾 Installation & Setup

1. Quick Setup (Shortcut)

If you have uv installed, get started in 2 lines:

git clone https://github.com/Ronit-019/Finance-Intelligence-MCP.gitcd Finance-Intelligence-MCPuv sync

2. Detailed Installation

Step A: Get a PostgreSQL Connection URL

The easiest, free option is Supabase:

1. Go to Supabase and create a free project.
2. Go to Project Settings (gear icon) > Database.
3. Under Connection string, select URI and copy the string.
   • Example: postgresql://postgres.[your-project-ref]:[your-password]@aws-0-us-east-1.pooler.supabase.com:5432/postgres
   • (Replace [your-password] with your database password).

Step B: Clone the Repository

Clone the codebase to a directory on your machine:

git clone https://github.com/Ronit-019/Finance-Intelligence-MCP.gitcd Finance-Intelligence-MCP

Copy the absolute path of this directory (e.g. C:/Users/Admin/Desktop/Finance-Intelligence-MCP). Note: Always use forward slashes (/) for paths in JSON configs.

Step C: Install Dependencies

If you do not have uv installed, install from the project metadata:

pip install -e .

3. Client Integration

Claude Desktop Setup

1. Open your Claude configuration file (claude_desktop_config.json):
   • Windows: Press Win + R, paste %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json and press Enter.
   • macOS: Paste ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json in Finder's Go to Folder.
2. Add this entry to mcpServers:

{  "mcpServers": {    "finance-intelligence": {      "command": "uv",      "args": [        "--directory",        "REPLACE_WITH_ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_CLONED_DIRECTORY",        "run",        "python",        "main.py"      ],      "env": {        "DATABASE_URL": "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SUPABASE_CONNECTION_STRING"      }    }  }}

3. Save and completely restart Claude Desktop.

Cursor IDE Setup

1. Go to Settings > Features > MCP.
2. Click + Add New MCP Server:
   • Name: Finance Intelligence
   • Type: command
   • Command:
     bash

     uv --directory "REPLACE_WITH_ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_CLONED_DIRECTORY" run python main.py

3. Click + Add Env Var:
   • Key: DATABASE_URL
   • Value: REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SUPABASE_CONNECTION_STRING
4. Click Save and refresh.

💬 Example Prompts

Once configured, try talking to your AI assistant:

• "Add ₹250 for lunch today under food."
• "Show my spending breakdown this month."
• "Generate an Excel report of all my expenses between May and July."
• "Am I exceeding my monthly budget limit?"
• "How much did I spend on dining out this week?"
• "Calculate my monthly financial health score and give me feedback."
• "Generate a spending chart for the last 30 days."

🛠️ Available Tools

The server registers 12 core tools on the client:

💡 Troubleshooting

1. uv: command not found

If the client cannot locate uv, update your config file to run standard Python:

• Ensure you ran pip install -e . inside the repository.
• Update config:

"finance-intelligence": {  "command": "python",  "args": [    "REPLACE_WITH_ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_CLONED_DIRECTORY/main.py"  ],  "env": {    "DATABASE_URL": "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SUPABASE_CONNECTION_STRING"  }}

2. Invalid DATABASE_URL / PostgreSQL Connection Errors

• Make sure you replaced [your-password] with your actual database password in the Supabase URI string.
• Ensure there are no surrounding spaces or special characters in the URL string.
• Verify your Supabase instance is active and not paused.

3. Claude Not Detecting the Server

• Double check that the folder paths in claude_desktop_config.json use forward slashes (/), even on Windows.
• Check the logs at %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\mcp*.log (Windows) or ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log (macOS) to see the exact startup error.
