How do I use Whooing MCP?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Whooing MCP Show my spending by category for this month" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

`whooing_add_entry`	Create a new transaction entry	`entry_date`, `l_account_id`, `r_account_id`, `item`, `money`, `memo?`, `section_id?`
`whooing_update_entry`	Update an existing entry	`entry_id`, `entry_date`, `l_account_id`, `r_account_id`, `item`, `money`, `memo?`, `section_id?`

Dates use YYYYMMDD format. Default: current month (1st to today).
section_id defaults to WHOOING_SECTION_ID env var.
Write tools resolve account types automatically from the account cache. Use whooing_accounts to look up account IDs first.
Delete uses soft-delete (sets amount to 0 and prefixes item with [삭제]) due to a Whooing API limitation.
