Magpie, a CLI to Turn Your AI Agent into a Bookkeeper

Hi HN,Annoucing the release of Magpie, a CLI tool which turns your AI agent into an expert bookkeeper, based on Jaybase. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48999936)As someone who owns a small, tech business, I have very simple books. somewhere between 10-30 transactions a month, a few depreciation line items, and a couple budgets to monitor. So it always bothered be that I was paying hundreds of dollars per year for software, and maybe a live bookeeper on top of that, just to keep these simple things in order, because I didn't have the mental bandwidth to do it myself.So I built Magpie. Magpie is a simple, opinionated CLI that runs on top of Jaybase to allow any popular AI agent to do proper double entry bookkeeping. It enforces standard accounting rules, stores everything securely, and you can ask your AI for just about any kind or report you want.I built it initially for myself, but I figured it's something the broader community could use. So give it a try. Simply give Claude Code, Codex, or any other agent the URL and it should be able to set it up for you.
