record-transactions

record-transactions is a skill for Claude Code from cynco-labs/ai-accounting-skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (446 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A transaction-recording workflow that builds registers for bank activity, sales, purchases, and payroll from source documents. It keeps source links and checks balances and payment totals where the relevant documents are provided.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to capture bank lines, invoices, purchases, and payslip details into structured registers. It is intended for accounting work where every figure needs a source document or source location.
Why use it?
It turns scattered accounting documents into traceable records and reduces the risk of invented or mismatched figures. It also checks that bank balances and payroll payments reconcile with the source information.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

record-transactions scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

/record-transactions

Purpose

Produce a complete transaction register from source documents with source links.

Preconditions

  1. Read shared guardrails (shared/guardrails.md).
  2. Load firm profile from ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-accounting/firm-profile.md if present.
  3. Load plugin config from ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-accounting/{{plugin}}/CLAUDE.md if present.
  4. Load active client engagement README / workspace if one is open.
  5. Never fabricate numbers. Re-read source documents if figures are missing from context.

Streams

A. Bank / cash receipts & payments

For every bank line: date | description | amount | DR/CR | bank_account | source_file | source_page_or_row | running_balance

Verify:

  • Opening = prior closing (or zero)
  • Closing = statement closing
  • Running balance unbroken

B. Sales (if invoices provided)

invoice_no | date | customer | amount | tax | revenue_type | source

C. Purchases

invoice_no | date | supplier | amount | tax | expense_or_asset | source

D. Payroll (if payslips)

Monthly: gross, allowances, employee deductions, employer statutory, net pay. Check net ↔ bank payment.

E. Manual journals already provided by client

Record as-is; mark source=client_journal; do not “fix” silently.

Completion

Done when: every provided stream is in a structured register with source links; missing bank months are must stop or with limitation — never interpolated.

Output

Structured dataset (CSV/JSON/workpaper sheet) ready for classification. Do not classify here unless user asked for combined pass — prefer handoff to classify-transactions.

Failures

Missing months → STOP or log AMBER limitation. Never interpolate missing bank activity.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
