Show HN: qbo-cli - Quickbooks CLI for AI Agents
qbo-cli.comI wanted my agent to be able to give me insights into my financials and handle some of the accounting tasks in a context-efficient way, so I built `qbo-cli` to interface with Quickbooks Online.
Heavily inspired by steipete's CLI tools. I can't wait to play with this, thank you for releasing! I've done lots and lots of financial modeling/budgeting/forecasting in my career. The biggest drag is having to pull in actuals for the prior month, mapping them into the model, etc. Just about a month ago I used Claude to build a set of scripts that pulls financial data from QuickBooks, operational data from BigQuery and pushes that all into our model in Google Sheets. The biggest pain was definitely connecting to QB because I had to create a developer account to get a key, etc. Great timing! Going to try it out now. Super cool! CLI makes a lot of sense for this, interested to try it out. The MCP server released by QBO is a mess, keep needing to have Claude hack it to fix inconsistencies in parameters, limit results that completely fill up context, etc.
