+# Tools - YNAB MCP Server
+
+This directory contains all YNAB operations exposed via MCP tools, organized by domain (budget, account, transaction, category, payee, month, utility, reconciliation).
+
+## Purpose & Responsibilities
+
+The `src/tools/` directory implements:
+
+1. **YNAB Operations** - CRUD operations for budgets, accounts, transactions, categories, payees
+2. **Tool Registration** - Domain-specific factory functions that register tools with the ToolRegistry
+3. **Input Validation** - Zod schemas for type-safe input validation
+4. **Adapter Pattern** - Consistent handler wrapping with dependency injection
+5. **Special Operations** - Transaction comparison, export, receipt itemization, reconciliation
+

+
+## Key Patterns & Conventions
+
+### 1. Tool Registration Pattern
+
+All tools use domain-specific factory functions that register with ToolRegistry:
+
+```typescript
+// In budgetTools.ts
+export function registerBudgetTools(
+  registry: ToolRegistry,
+  context: ToolContext
+): void {
+  registry.register({
+    name: 'list_budgets',
+    description: 'List all budgets',
+    inputSchema: emptyObjectSchema,
+    handler: adaptNoInput(handleListBudgets, context),
+    metadata: {
+      annotations: {
+        ...ToolAnnotationPresets.READ_ONLY_EXTERNAL,
+        title: 'YNAB: List Budgets',
+      },
+    },
+  });
+}
+```
+
+**Why Critical**: Centralized registration enables consistent validation, security, error handling, and progress notifications.
+
+**What Breaks**: Registering tools outside factory functions → bypasses security, no DI, inconsistent error handling.
+
+### 2. Adapter Pattern
+
+Use adapter helpers from `adapters.ts` to wrap handlers with dependency injection:
+
+```typescript
+import { adapt, adaptWrite, adaptWithDelta, adaptNoInput } from './adapters.js';
+
+// Read-only tool with input
+handler: adapt(handleGetBudget, context);
+
+// Write tool (invalidates cache)
+handler: adaptWrite(handleUpdateTransaction, context);
+
+// Delta-aware tool
+handler: adaptWithDelta(handleListTransactions, context);
+
+// No-input tool
+handler: adaptNoInput(handleGetUser, context);
+```
+
+**Adapter Types**:
+
+- `adapt` - Standard read-only handler with input
+- `adaptWrite` - Write handler (invalidates cache, supports progress)
+- `adaptWithDelta` - Delta-aware handler for efficient updates
+- `adaptNoInput` - Handler with no input parameters
+
+**Why Critical**: Adapters inject ToolContext dependencies, enable progress notifications, and ensure consistent error handling.
+
+**What Breaks**: Not using adapters → no DI, missing errorHandler, no progress support, inconsistent behavior.
+
+### 3. Schema Organization
+
+Schemas are organized by domain and strictness:
+
+```typescript
+// Input schemas (in tool files)
+const CreateTransactionSchema = z
+  .object({
+    budget_id: z.string().optional(),
+    account_id: z.string(),
+    amount: z.number(),
+    date: z.string(),
+    // ...
+  })
+  .strict(); // CRITICAL: Always use .strict()
+
+// Shared schemas (in schemas/common.ts)
+export const emptyObjectSchema = z.object({}).strict();
+export const looseObjectSchema = z.object({}).passthrough();
+
+// Output schemas (in schemas/outputs/)
+export const BudgetOutputSchema = z.object({
+  id: z.string(),
+  name: z.string(),
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+**Why Critical**: `.strict()` prevents unknown fields, which is a security concern. Input validation catches errors early.
+
+**What Breaks**: Missing `.strict()` → security vulnerability (unknown fields accepted). Missing validation → runtime errors, data corruption.
+
+### 4. Amount Handling (CRITICAL!)
+
+YNAB uses **milliunits** (1 dollar = 1000 milliunits). Always convert before API calls:
+
+```typescript
+import { milliunitsToAmount, amountToMilliunits } from '../utils/money.js';
+
+// User provides dollars, convert to milliunits for API
+const transaction = {
+  amount: amountToMilliunits(userInputDollars), // e.g., 25.50 → 25500
+  // ...
+};
+
+// API returns milliunits, convert to dollars for display
+const displayAmount = milliunitsToAmount(transaction.amount); // 25500 → 25.50
+```
+
+**Why CRITICAL**: Missing conversion → amounts are 1000x wrong (e.g., $25.50 becomes $0.02550 or $25,500.00).
+
+**What Breaks**: Direct dollar amounts to API → wrong values. Missing conversion from API → wrong display.
+
+### 5. Progress Notifications
+
+Long-running tools (reconciliation, bulk operations) emit progress updates:
+
+```typescript
+async function handleReconcileAccount(
+  input: ReconcileInput,
+  sendProgress?: ProgressCallback
+): Promise<ReconcileResult> {
+  await sendProgress?.({
+    progress: 10,
+    total: 100,
+    message: 'Parsing CSV...',
+  });
+
+  // ... parsing logic ...
+
+  await sendProgress?.({
+    progress: 50,
+    total: 100,
+    message: 'Matching transactions...',
+  });
+
+  // ... matching logic ...
+
+  await sendProgress?.({
+    progress: 100,
+    total: 100,
+    message: 'Complete',
+  });
+
+  return result;
+}
+```
+
+**Why Critical**: Operations >5 seconds need progress to prevent timeouts and improve UX.
+
+**What Breaks**: Missing optional chaining (`?.`) → TypeError. Missing progress updates → poor UX, timeouts.
+
+### 6. Cache Invalidation
+
+Write operations must invalidate related caches:
+
+```typescript
+// After creating/updating/deleting a transaction
+await updateTransaction(transactionId, updates);
+
+// Invalidate related caches
+context.cacheManager.delete(`transaction:${transactionId}`);
+context.cacheManager.delete(`transactions:${budgetId}`);
+context.cacheManager.delete(`account:${accountId}`); // Account balance changed
+```
+
+**Why Critical**: Stale cache → users see outdated data, inconsistent state.
+
+**What Breaks**: Missing invalidation → stale data persists until TTL expires (2-10 minutes).
+
+## Transaction Tools (Special Note)
+
+In v0.18.4, transaction tools were refactored into 3 files for maintainability:
+
+### File Breakdown
+
+1. **transactionSchemas.ts** (453 lines)
+   - Zod schemas for all transaction operations
+   - Input: `CreateTransactionSchema`, `UpdateTransactionSchema`, etc.
+   - Shared types: `TransactionInput`, `BulkTransactionInput`
+
+2. **transactionUtils.ts** (536 lines)
+   - Transaction utilities and helpers
+   - Receipt itemization logic (smart collapse for 5+ items)
+   - Big ticket preservation (items >10% of total)
+   - Tax allocation across line items
+   - Date validation, amount validation
+
+3. **transactionTools.ts** (2,274 lines)
+   - Tool registration factory (`registerTransactionTools`)
+   - Handler implementations for all transaction operations
+   - Tools: `create_transaction`, `update_transaction`, `delete_transaction`, `create_transactions`, `create_receipt_split_transaction`, `list_transactions`, `get_transaction`, `export_transactions`, `update_transactions`
+
+### Why Refactored
+
+- **Maintainability**: 3,263 lines in one file was unwieldy
+- **Separation of Concerns**: Schemas, utilities, and handlers are distinct responsibilities
+- **Testability**: Easier to unit test schemas and utilities separately
+
+## Receipt Itemization (v0.18.2+)
+
+The `create_receipt_split_transaction` tool uses smart itemization logic:
+
+### Features
+
+1. **Smart Collapse**: Collapses 5+ small items into "Other items" memo entry
+2. **Big Ticket Preservation**: Items >10% of total are always preserved as separate splits
+3. **Tax Allocation**: Distributes tax proportionally across line items
+4. **Memo Format**: Each split gets memo like "Item Name ($12.34)" for traceability
+
+### Example
+
+```typescript
+// 8-item receipt with $100 total, $10 tax
+// Result: 4 big items ($15+ each) + 1 "Other items (4 items, $20.00)" + tax split
+```
+
+**Why Important**: Keeps transaction list clean while preserving important line items.
+
+**What Breaks**: Manual memo formatting → inconsistent, hard to parse.
+
+## Common Development Tasks
+
+### Adding a New Tool
+
+1. **Choose domain file** (e.g., `budgetTools.ts` for budget operations)
+
+2. **Create Zod schema** with strict validation:
+   ```typescript
+   const MyToolSchema = z
+     .object({
+       budget_id: z.string().optional(),
+       my_field: z.string(),
+     })
+     .strict(); // CRITICAL
+   ```
+
+3. **Implement handler function**:
+   ```typescript
+   async function handleMyTool(
+     input: z.infer<typeof MyToolSchema>,
+     context: ToolContext
+   ): Promise<MyResult> {
+     const budgetId = BudgetResolver.resolveBudgetId(
+       input.budget_id,
+       context.getDefaultBudgetId()
+     );
+     if (typeof budgetId !== 'string') return budgetId;
+
+     // ... implementation ...
+
+     return result;
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. **Register in factory function**:
+   ```typescript
+   export function registerMyDomainTools(
+     registry: ToolRegistry,
+     context: ToolContext
+   ): void {
+     registry.register({
+       name: 'my_tool',
+       description: 'My tool description',
+       inputSchema: MyToolSchema,
+       handler: adapt(handleMyTool, context),
+       metadata: {
+         annotations: {
+           ...ToolAnnotationPresets.READ_ONLY_EXTERNAL,
+           title: 'YNAB: My Tool',
+         },
+       },
+     });
+   }
+   ```
+
+5. **Add unit tests** in `__tests__/myDomainTools.test.ts`
+
+6. **Add integration tests** in `__tests__/myDomainTools.integration.test.ts`
+
+### Modifying Existing Tool
+
+1. **Read the current schema** to understand inputs
+2. **Update schema** if adding/changing fields:
+   ```typescript
+   const UpdatedSchema = ExistingSchema.extend({
+     new_field: z.string().optional(),
+   });
+   ```
+3. **Update handler** with new logic
+4. **Update tests** to cover new behavior
+5. **Invalidate caches** if it's a write operation
+
+### Adding Progress Notifications
+
+1. **Update handler signature**:
+   ```typescript
+   async function handleMyTool(
+     input: MyInput,
+     sendProgress?: ProgressCallback
+   ): Promise<MyOutput>
+   ```
+
+2. **Use `adaptWrite` adapter** (supports progress):
+   ```typescript
+   handler: adaptWrite(handleMyTool, context);
+   ```
+
+3. **Emit progress updates**:
+   ```typescript
+   await sendProgress?.({
+     progress: currentStep,
+     total: totalSteps,
+     message: 'Processing...',
+   });
+   ```
+
+### Adding Output Schema
+
+1. **Create schema** in `schemas/outputs/`:
+   ```typescript
+   export const MyOutputSchema = z.object({
+     id: z.string(),
+     name: z.string(),
+     // ...
+   });
+   ```
+
+2. **Use in handler**:
+   ```typescript
+   const result = await fetchData();
+   return MyOutputSchema.parse(result); // Validates output
+   ```
+
+## Testing Approach
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+- **Location**: `src/tools/__tests__/*.test.ts`
+- **Mock**: YNAB API, ToolContext, all external dependencies
+- **Coverage**: 80% minimum
+- **Focus**: Handler logic, error handling, edge cases
+
+### Integration Tests
+
+- **Location**: `src/tools/__tests__/*.integration.test.ts`
+- **Mock**: YNAB API (use realistic fixtures)
+- **Real**: ToolContext, cacheManager, errorHandler
+- **Focus**: End-to-end tool execution, cache behavior
+
+### Example Unit Test
+
+```typescript
+describe('handleCreateTransaction', () => {
+  it('should convert dollars to milliunits', async () => {
+    const context = createMockContext();
+    const input = {
+      account_id: 'acc123',
+      amount: 25.5, // Dollars
+      date: '2025-01-31',
+    };
+
+    await handleCreateTransaction(input, context);
+
+    expect(context.ynabAPI.createTransaction).toHaveBeenCalledWith(
+      expect.objectContaining({
+        amount: 25500, // Milliunits!
+      })
+    );
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## What Will Break If Violated
+
+### 1. Missing Milliunits Conversion
+
+**Problem**: Passing dollar amounts directly to YNAB API.
+
+**Impact**: Amounts are 1000x wrong (e.g., $25.50 → $0.02550 or $25,500.00).
+
+**Fix**: Always use `amountToMilliunits()` before API calls:
+
+```typescript
+// BAD
+await ynabAPI.createTransaction({
+  amount: 25.5, // Wrong!
+});
+
+// GOOD
+await ynabAPI.createTransaction({
+  amount: amountToMilliunits(25.5), // 25500 milliunits
+});
+```
+
+### 2. Schema Without `.strict()`
+
+**Problem**: Input schemas missing `.strict()` modifier.
+
+**Impact**: Security vulnerability (unknown fields accepted), potential injection attacks.
+
+**Fix**: Always use `.strict()` on input schemas:
+
+```typescript
+// BAD
+const MySchema = z.object({
+  field: z.string(),
+}); // Allows unknown fields!
+
+// GOOD
+const MySchema = z
+  .object({
+    field: z.string(),
+  })
+  .strict(); // Rejects unknown fields
+```
+
+### 3. Missing Cache Invalidation
+
+**Problem**: Write operations without cache invalidation.
+
+**Impact**: Users see stale data for 2-10 minutes (until TTL expires).
+
+**Fix**: Invalidate related caches after writes:
+
+```typescript
+await updateTransaction(id, updates);
+
+// Invalidate all related caches
+context.cacheManager.delete(`transaction:${id}`);
+context.cacheManager.delete(`transactions:${budgetId}`);
+context.cacheManager.delete(`account:${accountId}`);
+```
+
+### 4. Missing `.js` Extensions in Imports
+
+**Problem**: Imports without `.js` extension.
+
+**Impact**: Build failures, runtime errors (ES modules require explicit extensions).
+
+**Fix**: Always use `.js` extensions:
+
+```typescript
+// BAD
+import { adapt } from './adapters';
+
+// GOOD
+import { adapt } from './adapters.js';
+```
+
+### 5. Not Using Adapters
+
+**Problem**: Registering handlers directly without adapters.
+
+**Impact**: No dependency injection, missing errorHandler, no progress support, inconsistent error handling.
+
+**Fix**: Always use adapter helpers:
+
+```typescript
+// BAD
+handler: async (input) => handleMyTool(input);
+
+// GOOD
+handler: adapt(handleMyTool, context);
+```
+
+### 6. Direct YNAB API Calls
+
+**Problem**: Bypassing ToolContext and calling YNAB API directly.
+
+**Impact**: No caching, no rate limiting, no error handling, test failures.
+
+**Fix**: Always use `context.ynabAPI`:
+
+```typescript
+// BAD
+const api = new ynab.API(token);
+const budgets = await api.budgets.getBudgets();
+
+// GOOD
+const budgets = await context.ynabAPI.budgets.getBudgets();
+```
+
+## Tool Categories & Annotations
+
+All tools use MCP annotations from `toolCategories.ts`:
+
+### Annotation Presets
+
+- **READ_ONLY_EXTERNAL** - Read-only YNAB API calls (idempotent)
+- **WRITE_EXTERNAL_CREATE** - Create operations (non-idempotent)
+- **WRITE_EXTERNAL_UPDATE** - Update operations (idempotent)
+- **WRITE_EXTERNAL_DELETE** - Delete operations (destructive, idempotent)
+- **UTILITY_LOCAL** - Local operations (no external API)
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+metadata: {
+  annotations: {
+    ...ToolAnnotationPresets.WRITE_EXTERNAL_UPDATE,
+    title: 'YNAB: Update Transaction',
+  },
+}
+```
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### With Server (`src/server/`)
+
+- **ToolRegistry**: All tools register via `registry.register()`
+- **ToolContext**: Injected by adapters, provides ynabAPI, cacheManager, etc.
+- **Error Handling**: Uses `errorHandler` from ToolContext
+
+### With Types (`src/types/`)
+
+- **ToolContext**: Central DI object with all shared dependencies
+- **Handler Signatures**: Handler, DeltaHandler, WriteHandler, NoInputHandler
+- **Reconciliation Types**: ReconcileInput, ReconcileResult, etc.
+
+### With Utils (`src/utils/`)
+
+- **Money Conversion**: `amountToMilliunits()`, `milliunitsToAmount()`
+- **Date Utilities**: `formatDate()`, `isValidDate()`
+- **Validation**: `validateAmount()`, `validateDate()`
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+1. **Use Delta Requests**: For large datasets (transactions), use `adaptWithDelta`
+2. **Cache Aggressively**: Read-only tools benefit from long TTLs
+3. **Batch Operations**: Use bulk APIs (`create_transactions`, `update_transactions`) for multiple operations
+4. **Progress Notifications**: Operations >5 seconds should emit progress
+5. **Lazy Loading**: Don't fetch unnecessary related data
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+1. **Strict Schemas**: Always use `.strict()` on input schemas
+2. **Input Validation**: Validate all inputs via Zod before processing
+3. **Budget ID Validation**: Always resolve and validate budget IDs
+4. **Amount Validation**: Validate amounts are reasonable (not negative for debits, etc.)
+5. **No Secret Leakage**: Error responses never include API tokens or sensitive data
