lunchmoney-app
MCP-first access to your Lunch Money data
lunchmoney-app is first and foremost an MCP
server for using your Lunch Money data from an MCP-enabled assistant. It also runs
as a standalone application with a RESTful API and database backend that keeps
itself in sync with all of your Lunch Money data.
Quickstart
Use Lunch Money from your favorite MCP-enabled assistant in a few minutes.
- Create or copy your Lunch Money access token.
- Add the configuration below to your MCP client's server settings.
- Replace
your-lunch-money-token, restart the client, and start chatting.
Your MCP client starts and manages Lunch Money MCP for you; do not run a separate server command.
{
"mcpServers": {
"lunchmoney": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["lunchmoney-app", "mcp"],
"env": {
"LUNCHMONEY_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-lunch-money-token"
}
}
}
}
Try asking:
- “How much did I spend on dining this month?”
- “Show my largest recent transactions.”
- “Which transactions still need a category?”
Install in Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, or Claude Desktop
Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI use the published package through uvx; install
uv first. Claude Desktop
manages the MCPB runtime itself. Provide your Lunch Money access token through
LUNCHMONEY_ACCESS_TOKEN unless the client prompts for it.

| Claude Code | claude plugin marketplace add juftin/lunchmoney-app && claude plugin install lunchmoney-mcp@lunchmoney-app |
| Codex | codex plugin marketplace add juftin/lunchmoney-app && codex plugin add lunchmoney-mcp@lunchmoney-app |
| Gemini CLI | gemini extensions install https://github.com/juftin/lunchmoney-app |
| Claude Desktop | Download lunchmoney-app.mcpb from a release and open it. |
For direct standard-MCP setup and framework-specific token configuration, see the MCP guide.
