# recite-mcp

`mcp-name: io.github.rivradev/recite-mcp`

`recite-mcp` is an MCP server for the Recite API. It provides the full documented Recite MCP surface for scans, transactions, imports, batch jobs, projects, summaries, webhooks, rules, usage, and exports, while preserving the local ledger/memory workflow for agents that want local-first bookkeeping.

## Install

### End users

Recommended:

```bash
uvx recite-mcp
```

Alternative (`pipx`):

```bash
pipx install recite-mcp
```

Alternative (`pip`):

```bash
python -m pip install recite-mcp
```

### Contributors

```bash
python -m pip install -e .[dev]
pytest -q
python -m recite_mcp.server
```

## Required Environment

Get an API key at `https://recite.rivra.dev/settings/api` (includes 30 free scans per month), then set `RECITE_API_KEY` (required to process receipts; server can still start without it so `validate_setup()` can report what's missing):

```bash
# Windows PowerShell
$env:RECITE_API_KEY="re_live_xxx"
```

```bash
# macOS/Linux
export RECITE_API_KEY="re_live_xxx"
```

Optional home override:

```bash
# Windows PowerShell
$env:RECITE_HOME="C:\path\to\recite-home"
```

```bash
# macOS/Linux
export RECITE_HOME="$HOME/.config/recite"
```

## MCP Client Config

Copy-paste this config:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "recite": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["recite-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "RECITE_API_KEY": "re_live_xxx"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

If installed via `pipx` or `pip`, use:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "recite": {
      "command": "recite-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "RECITE_API_KEY": "re_live_xxx"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Troubleshooting

### MCP Registry ownership validation failed

- Symptom: Registry publish returns a PyPI ownership/README validation error.
- Fix: keep this exact line in packaged README: `mcp-name: io.github.rivradev/recite-mcp`, then bump version and upload new PyPI release before publishing to Registry.

### `RECITE_API_KEY` missing or invalid

- Symptom: `validate_setup()` reports `missing_api_key` or API requests are rejected.
- Fix: set `RECITE_API_KEY` in MCP client `env` config (preferred) or shell environment.

### `uvx` command not found

- Symptom: terminal says `uvx` is not recognized.
- Fix: install `uv` first, or use one of the alternatives:
  - `pipx install recite-mcp`
  - `python -m pip install recite-mcp`

### `recite-mcp` command not found after install

- Symptom: command not recognized after `pipx`/`pip` install.
- Fix:
  - For `pipx`: run `pipx ensurepath`, then reopen terminal.
  - For `pip`: run with module entrypoint: `python -m recite_mcp.server`

### MCP client starts but tools are unavailable

- Symptom: server appears configured but no tools/resources are listed.
- Fix:
  - Confirm MCP config JSON is valid.
  - Confirm command and args match your install method (`uvx` vs `recite-mcp`).
  - Restart MCP client after config changes.

### Can't download from PyPI (uvx/pip)

- Symptom: install/run fails with network/proxy errors.
- Fix: ensure your environment can reach PyPI (or configure your proxy / custom index). If you're on a locked-down network, you may need to allowlist PyPI or use an internal mirror.

### Quick local validation (no MCP client)

- Run `recite-mcp --validate` (or `uvx recite-mcp --validate`) to print local config/health JSON. Exit code is `0` if an API key is present, otherwise `1`.

## Main Features

**API tools (41 total):**

- **Scans** — `scan_receipt` (file, URL, base64, or raw text; ephemeral mode), `get_scan`
- **Transactions** — create, list (with filters), get, update, delete, `import_transactions` (JSON list, CSV text, or CSV file)
- **Batch scans** — `submit_batch_scans` (1–20 items, async, webhook notification), `get_batch_scan_status`, `get_batch_scan_results`
- **Projects** — list, create, update, delete
- **Summaries** — `get_summary` (period, date range, group-by)
- **Webhooks** — create, list, delete (`transaction.created/updated/deleted`, `batch.completed`)
- **Reconciliation** — `create_reconciliation_link`, `list_reconciliation_links`, `update_reconciliation_link`, `delete_reconciliation_link`, `run_auto_match`, `get_reconciliation_summary`, `get_reconciliation_recommendations`, `export_reconciliation`
- **Rules** — create, list, update, delete (vendor_category, default_project, processing_preference)
- **Categories** — `get_categories` (17 built-in + custom), `create_category`, `delete_category`
- **Vendors** — `get_vendors`, `create_vendor`, `delete_vendor`
- **Usage** — `get_usage` (period, breakdown)
- **Exports** — `export_transactions` (CSV/JSON, optional file save)

**Local tools:**

- `process_receipt` — scan + ledger append in one step (optional rename, dry-run, category hint)
- `process_receipts_batch` — scan a directory of images/PDFs (recursive, dry-run preview)
- `summarize_ledger`, `export_ledger`, `add_ledger_correction` — local CSV ledger management
- `update_memory`, `list_memory` — persistent agent instruction storage
- `get_config`, `validate_setup` — configuration inspection and health check

**Resources:** `recite://ledger`, `recite://memory`, `recite://health`
