Runs the first conversation after the person connects Candor: a first look at their money from the real records, what is worth a closer look, and what they want, saved in their words, so the next conversation starts from a plan. Use when Candor was just connected or installed, when the person says set up, get started, take a look, or what can you do with my money, or when the workspace has records but no goals or notes yet.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
> The calls below are Candor MCP tool calls. Replace placeholders such as `TRANSACTION_ID` with values from earlier responses; where an `input` names an operation instead of showing an object, `candor_schema` lists its fields.
> If Candor's MCP tools are not available, get started at [https://candor.money/START.md](https://candor.money/START.md).
# Get started
The first conversation decides whether Candor is useful. Leave the person
with a short, true picture of their money from their own records, one or two
things worth a closer look that you checked yourself, and what they want from
their money saved in their words. Setup itself takes one line.
## Working in Candor
Candor is the person's financial workspace and your memory of it: their
records, the figures Candor computes from them, the goals, budget, rules, and
notes you keep there, and a weekly review that tells you what is worth talking
through. You advise and act; Candor keeps the facts and the plan.
- **Open first, once.** Run `candor_open({})` at the start of any conversation
about money, before answering. Read what changed since the last opening

How to install
mdr add candorsystems/candor-finance/candor-get-started@sha256:4ff4d1956a5086feThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.3.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
