Asher - Personal Financial Data MCP Server

Get closer to your own data, on steroids!

A secure, local-first financial data aggregator for Israeli banks and credit card companies, built with TypeScript and powered by israeli-bank-scrapers. Asher helps you aggregate and analyze your financial transactions across multiple sources while keeping your data private and secure. Information is scraped and stored in a local, encrypted SQLite database.

Features

• MCP Server: Implements the Model Context Protocol for easy integration with MCP Hosts (e.g. Claude)
• Extensive Integration: Supports all Israeli banks and credit card companies provided by israeli-bank-scrapers.
• Local-First: Your financial data never leaves your machine
• Encryption: Sensitive data is encrypted at rest
• CLI: Easy setup and management via command line
• TypeScript: Built with type safety in mind

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• npm

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/shlomiuziel/asher-mcp.git
   cd asher-mcp
   

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Build the project:

   npm run build
   

4. Optional: Install the system wide asher cli command:

   npm install -g .
   

5. Install tsx (TypeScript Execute) globally (required for Claude desktop integration):

   npm install -g tsx
   

Database Location

The database file is stored in the following location, depending on your OS:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Asher/database.db
• Linux: ~/.local/share/Asher/database.db
• Windows: %APPDATA%/Asher/database.db

First Run & Configuration

1. Prepare a credentials.json file with your provider credentials. See supported providers and credential fields here.

2. Ingest your credentials:

   asher ingest-creds -f credentials.json
   

   • Use this command to update credentials as needed. Deletion can be done manually (see the scraper_credentials table).
   • You will be prompted to enter an encryption key for your database (for first-time setup, you'll re-enter to confirm).

3. During setup, you will be prompted to:

   • Enable notifications (a test notification will help with permissions)
   • Optionally perform the first scrape (recommended to avoid latency and possible timeouts due to the large amount of data)
   • Configure Claude Desktop integration (can be directly launched with npm run configure:claude)

Usage

MCP Tools

Asher provides several tools for MCP hosts:

• fetchTransactions: Fetch recent transactions and store them in the database.
• describeTable: Get detailed information about a table (columns, indexes).
• listTables: List all tables in the database.
• getTableSchema: Get the schema for a specific table.
• sqlQuery: Execute a safe SELECT query on allowed tables (prevents SQL injection and unauthorized access).
• fetch-last-month-transactions: Fetch and summarize last month's transactions and expenses.

A sample prompt is included to help you generate a detailed monthly report.

Test your MCP server

You can run the MCP Inspector for local testing:

npm run start:mcp:inspector

Security

• All sensitive data is encrypted at rest.
• Bank credentials are stored securely inside the database using your encryption key.
• The application follows the principle of least privilege (chmod 600 on the database file).
• The encryption key is requested at runtime and never stored on disk.

Testing

Run all tests:

npm test
