- ## Features
11
-
12
- - **LLM-First Design**: JSON output by default for easy parsing and integration with AI assistants
13
- - **Advanced Filtering**: Built-in filters reduce need for external tools like `jq` - filter by approval status, amount ranges, field selection, and search capabilities
14
- - **Comprehensive Coverage**: Support for all major YNAB API endpoints
15
- - **Type Safety**: Built with TypeScript for robust error handling
16
- - **Raw API Access**: Fallback command for any operation not covered by convenience commands
17
- - **Simple Authentication**: Uses personal access tokens stored securely in OS keychain

+ All commands return JSON. Use `--compact` for minified output.
185

186
- - **Lists**: Arrays of objects (not wrapped)
187
- - **Single items**: Objects directly
188
- - **Errors**: `{"error": {"name": "...", "detail": "...", "statusCode": 400}}`
189
-
190
- ## Currency Format
191
-
192
- **All amounts are in dollars.** The CLI automatically converts YNAB's internal milliunit format (1000 = $1.00) in both input and output.
193
-
194
- - Input: `--min-amount 100` means $100
195
- - Output: `"amount": -555.28` means -$555.28
123
+ **Amounts are in dollars** (not YNAB's internal milliunits). `--min-amount 100` means $100.

125
  ## API Limitations
198
126
 
199
- The YNAB API does not support:
200
-
201
- - Creating categories, category groups, or payees
202
- - Updating accounts (beyond initial creation)
203
-
204
- Use the YNAB web or mobile app for these operations.
205
-
206
- ## API Rate Limits
207
-
208
- The YNAB API enforces a rate limit of **200 requests per hour** per access token. When exceeded, the API returns HTTP 429 errors.
127
+ The YNAB API does not support creating categories, category groups, or payees. Use the web or mobile app for these.
209
128
 
210
- **If you hit the rate limit:**
211
- - Wait 5-10 minutes before retrying (the limit uses a rolling 60-minute window)
212
- - For batch operations, add delays between requests: `sleep 20` in shell loops ensures ~180 requests/hour
129
+ Rate limit: 200 requests/hour per token. If exceeded, wait 5-10 minutes.
