QBO Bank & Petty Cash Reconciliation

Pulls your bank activity for a period — from a connected bank MCP (Grasshopper or Mercury) or an uploaded or pasted statement — then pulls the matching QuickBooks Online register and petty cash total. It matches transactions on amount, payee, and a date-tolerance window, and proposes the exact matches for you to approve in QuickBooks. Everything else — amount mismatches, missing counterparts, duplicate candidates — gets listed separately, so nothing gets folded into a false 'reconciled' summary. It also checks the bank statement's ending balance against QuickBooks, and confirms petty cash against a real count or log rather than skipping it. It only reads your bank and QuickBooks data. It never changes anything — run it with both connections' write tools turned off.

Required MCPs

QuickBooks Online MCP

Community MCP server for QuickBooks Online. Provides the bank register and petty cash reads this skill matches against. Run it with QUICKBOOKS_DISABLE_WRITE, QUICKBOOKS_DISABLE_UPDATE, and QUICKBOOKS_DISABLE_DELETE set, since this skill writes nothing to QBO.

Bank MCP (optional)

Any financial-pulse-supported bank connector that exposes a real bank-transaction feed (Grasshopper, Mercury) for the bank-side data. Optional — if no connector is available, upload or paste a bank statement instead. Ramp isn't offered here since it's a card/spend platform, not a bank statement source.

What this skill does

This is an overview of the skill from the site, not the skill's real instructions. The full SKILL.md Claude reads when this skill is active lives on GitHub at the source below.

Get cash reconciled first, not last. This skill pulls your bank feed for the period — from a connected bank MCP or an uploaded/pasted statement — and your QuickBooks Online register and petty cash total for the same period, then matches them up.

Exact matches (same amount, same payee, date within a stated tolerance window) get proposed for you to approve in QuickBooks yourself. Everything else — amount mismatches, missing counterparts, duplicate candidates — gets listed separately, so nothing quietly disappears into a “reconciled” number that isn’t actually reconciled. It also checks the bank statement’s ending balance against QuickBooks’ and confirms petty cash against a real count or log. It never writes anything back to QuickBooks or to your bank — run it with both connections’ write tools turned off.
