Shows where the person's money goes from their real records and saves a budget they can hold to, built from what they actually spend and fit to what they say, then keeps it current. Use when the person asks where their money goes, what they spend each month, how much they can save, why they are over this month, or wants a budget, a spending plan, or to change a budget line. For saving toward a specific goal, use candor-plan-a-goal.
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).
# Budget
Show the person where their money actually goes, from their records, and
leave them with a saved budget built from that spending and fit to what they
said: their total, the amounts they named, and room for each goal. You keep
it current from then on, so they never manage category sliders.
## 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
(`new_since_checkpoint`), due notes, `watches`, and this week's `review`

How to install
mdr add candorsystems/candor-finance/candor-budget@sha256:5cfb27179fa5825aThe 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.
