mbank-parser-mcp

Local MCP server that parses mBank CSV operation exports — the exact file you can download from the mBank web app under "Historia" → "Eksportuj do CSV". Runs entirely offline. Nothing leaves your machine.

Part of the honest-mcp family of small, auditable, local-first MCP servers.

Why

Anyone using mBank in Poland — private, JDG, sp. z o.o. — does the same monthly ritual:

1. Log into mBank, download the CSV.

2. Open in Excel, squint at Polish-locale amounts (space-thousands, comma-decimals, PLN suffix).

3. Filter by date, sum by category for VAT / income tax reconciliation.

This server automates step 2 and 3 through your AI. You keep your bank data on disk; the AI just calls a tool that reads and filters it locally.

Zero network calls. The requirements.txt is one line — the MCP SDK. No dependency footprint to audit.

Features

Three tools:

• read_statement_header — quick preview of a file: client name, date range, listed accounts, inflow/outflow totals, operation count. No operation rows loaded.

• list_operations — parse + filter operations. Combine any of: date_from, date_to, category, account, contains (description substring), min_amount, max_amount, limit.

• summarize_operations — aggregate by category, account, or month. Returns count, inflow, outflow, net per bucket plus grand totals.

Amounts come back as signed floats (negative = expense), currency separate. Polish-locale numbers (-3 283,33 PLN) and non-breaking-space thousand separators are handled.

Supported files

• ✅ CSV export from mBank web banking ("Historia operacji" → "Eksportuj do CSV")

• ❌ PDF statements — mBank's layout varies too much per statement type for reliable parsing. Skipped intentionally.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+

Setup

git clone https://github.com/bartosz-kuc/mbank-parser-mcp.git
cd mbank-parser-mcp
python3 -m venv venv
./venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

Register with Claude Code:

Example usage

"How much did I spend on 'Ubezpieczenia' in Q2?"

summarize_operations(file_path=".../lista_operacji.csv", group_by="category", date_from="2026-04-01", date_to="2026-06-30") → totals per category, including "Ubezpieczenia".

"List all incoming transfers over 10 000 PLN this year."

list_operations(file_path=".../lista_operacji.csv", min_amount=10000, date_from="2026-01-01")

"Show me every card purchase mentioning Anthropic."

list_operations(file_path=".../lista_operacji.csv", contains="ANTHROPIC")
