pass total-via-sql-aggregate

tool-selectionanalysis

A plain total question should aggregate in SQL, not sum rows by hand.

prompt
How much did I spend on Dining in total?
run pass
describe_finance_schemarun_sql
  • toolCalled(run_sql)
  • sqlMatches(/sum\s*\(/i)
  • statesAmount(2733)
  • statesNoWrongTotal(2733)
answer
You've spent a **total of $2,733.00** on **Dining**.

pass top-categories-ranking

tool-selectionanalysis

A ranking question should GROUP BY in SQL, not page through transactions.

prompt
What are my biggest spending categories?
run pass
describe_finance_schemarun_sql
  • toolCalled(run_sql)
  • sqlMatches(/group\s+by/i)
  • statesAmount(2733)
  • toolNotCalled(query_transactions)
answer
## Your Top Spending Categories

| Category | Total Spent | Transactions |
|----------|-------------|--------------|
| **Dining** | **$2,733.00** | 262 |
| **Groceries** | **$244.00** | 40 |
| **Transport** | **$33.00** | 12 |

**Key insight:** **Dining dominates your spending** at $2,733 — nearly 92% of all tracked expenses. That's spread across 262 transactions, averaging about **$10.43 per dining visit**. 

Groceries and transport are relatively small by comparison. If you're looking to optimize spending, dining is where the numbers are.

Would you like me to dig deeper — e.g., break down dining by merchant, or compare this month to previous months?

pass listing-uses-query-transactions

tool-selectionover-triggering-guard

The inverse guard: a LISTING request must use query_transactions, not SQL. Stops a fix to the aggregate cases from over-rotating the prompt into 'always use run_sql'.

prompt
Show me my 5 most recent Dining transactions.
run pass
query_transactions
  • toolCalled(query_transactions)
  • toolNotCalled(run_sql)
answer
Here are your **5 most recent Dining transactions**:

| Date | Note | Amount | Account |
|------|------|--------|---------|
| Sep 19, 2026 | Dining 262 | $0.02 | Checking |
| Sep 18, 2026 | Dining 261 | $0.01 | Checking |
| Sep 17, 2026 | Dining 260 | $20.00 | Checking |
| Sep 16, 2026 | Dining 259 | $19.00 | Checking |
| Sep 15, 2026 | Dining 258 | $18.00 | Checking |

**Note:** You have **262 total Dining transactions** in your history. These are just the most recent 5. If you'd like to see a summary (total by month, average, etc.) or transactions from a specific date range, let me know.

pass truncated-page-not-reported-as-total

3/3 runs truncationcorrectness

Asked for a count AND a total over a set that exceeds the row cap, the agent must report the true figures — never the capped page's 200 rows or their sum.

prompt

pass log-expense-pauses-for-approval

approval: allow approvalmutation

An approved expense pauses at the gate first, then writes exactly one row.

prompt

**Done.** Logged **$12.50** coffee to your checking account under **Dining**. Transaction ID: `8415e182-6849-4251-90f2-f11485966bc1`.

pass denied-expense-writes-nothing

3/3 runs approval: deny approvalmutation

A DENIED expense must leave the ledger untouched. The worst regression this repo could ship is a rejected mutation that still writes.

  • pausedForApproval(log_expense)
  • rowCountInStore(transaction,316)
answer
The coffee transaction was not approved. Let me know if you'd like to adjust it or proceed with a different amount or details.

pass no-double-prompt-on-mutation

approval: allow prompt-contractapproval

The prompt forbids asking for confirmation in prose, because the SYSTEM already surfaces an approval UI — asking on top of it double-prompts the user. Given every detail it needs, the agent must call the tool (which IS the proposal) rather than stalling on a question.

prompt
Log a $12.50 coffee on my checking account, category Dining.
run pass
get_configlog_expense ⏸
  • pausedForApproval(log_expense)
  • toolCallCountAtMost(log_expense,1)
answer
✅ **Logged.** Coffee purchase of **$12.50** on your checking account, category **Dining**.

pass unknown-category-recovers

3/3 runs prompt-contractempty-results

Asked about a category that does not exist, the agent must ESTABLISH that — not report an empty/null result as 'you have no spending there yet', which implies the category exists.

prompt

- **Transport**

Would you like me to:
1. **Show spending in one of your existing categories** (e.g., total Dining or Transport)?
2. **Create an Entertainment category** and then log future entertainment expenses there?
3. **Search for specific entertainment transactions** by name or merchant (e.g., "Netflix", "movie")?

Your currency is not yet set. Looking at the file (French labels, decimal amounts with `.` separator), **what currency should I use for this import?** (e.g., EUR, USD, GBP)

Once you confirm that, I'll also need you to verify the **date format**. The file shows dates like `05/07/2026` — is this **DD/MM/YYYY** (5 July 2026) or **MM/DD/YYYY** (7 May 2026)?

After you answer both, I'll propose the full column mapping for your approval.
user sim
EUR for the currency.

The date format is DD/MM/YYYY.
Cameron
Great! Now here's the **proposed column mapping** for your CSV:

| File Column | Maps To | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| **Date** | date | Format: DD/MM/YYYY (e.g., 05/07/2026 = 5 July 2026) |
| **Libellé** | note | Short transaction label (e.g., "Café du matin") |
| **Montant** | amount | Transaction amount in EUR |
| **Catégorie** | category | Category name (Dining, Groceries, Transport, etc.) |
| **Revenu/dépense** | type | Direction: "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income |

**Account:** CHECKING (as you specified)

**Currency:** EUR

**Sample transactions that will import:**
- 5 July: Café du matin — €4.50 (Dining, Expense)
- 6 July: Boulangerie — €12.00 (Groceries, Expense)
- 7 July: Ticket de métro — €2.10 (Transport, Expense)

**Does this mapping look correct?** If yes, I'll proceed with the import.

Good — I can see the file has 8 transactions in French. Before proceeding, I need two pieces of information:

## File Structure
- **Date**: appears to be DD/MM/YYYY format (e.g., `05/07/2026` = 5 July)
- **Libellé** (description): short labels like "Café du matin"
- **Montant** (amount): decimal values
- **Catégorie** (category): Dining, Groceries, Transport, etc.
- **Revenu/dépense** (income/expense): "Dépense" = expense

## Questions for you:

1. **Confirm the date format:** Are these dates DD/MM/YYYY? (So `05/07/2026` = 5 July 2026, correct?)

2. **Currency:** What currency are these transactions in? (I need to set this before importing.)

Once you confirm these, I'll propose the full mapping.
user sim
The date format is dd/MM/yyyy, so yes, 05/07/2026 is 5 July 2026.

The currency is EUR.
Cameron
Excellent. Here's the **column mapping** I propose for import:

| File Column | Maps To | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `Date` | date | Format: `dd/MM/yyyy` |
| `Libellé` | note | Short description (e.g., "Café du matin") |
| `Montant` | amount | Transaction amount |
| `Catégorie` | category | Existing categories will be reused; new ones created as needed |
| `Revenu/dépense` | type | "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income |

All meaningful columns are mapped. The file has no merchant, description (beyond the note), or unique ID columns, so those remain unmapped.

**Ready to proceed?** Once you approve, I'll import all 8 transactions into your **CHECKING** account in **EUR**.
user sim
Yes, that looks right. Go ahead.

Your currency isn't set yet. **What currency are these transactions in?** (e.g., EUR, USD, GBP, CAD, etc.) Once you confirm, I'll map the columns and import them.

In the meantime, here's the proposed mapping for the file:

|---|---|---|
| **Date** | `date` | Format appears to be DD/MM/YYYY (05/07/2026 = 5 July) |

| **Montant** | `amount` | The transaction amount |
| **Catégorie** | `category` | Already categorized (Dining, Groceries, Transport) |
| **Revenu/dépense** | `type` | French for "Income/Expense" — all sample rows show "Dépense" (expense) |

answer
Perfect. I can see the file has 8 transactions in French. Before I import, I need to clarify **one critical detail about the date format**.

The sample shows dates like `05/07/2026`. This is ambiguous:
- **DD/MM/YYYY?** → 05/07/2026 = **5 July 2026** (July 5th)
- **MM/DD/YYYY?** → 05/07/2026 = **May 7, 2026** (May 7th)

Looking at the context (French file, metric system), I'm reading these as **DD/MM/YYYY** (5 July, 6 July, 7 July, 8 July, 9 July). **Is that correct?**

Once you confirm, here's the mapping I'll use:

| File Column | Maps To | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `Date` | date | Transaction date |
| `Libellé` | note | Short label (e.g., "Café du matin") |
| `Montant` | amount | Transaction amount |
| `Catégorie` | category | Spending category (Dining, Groceries, Transport, etc.) |
| `Revenu/dépense` | type | Expense/income direction (French: Dépense = Expense) |

**Please confirm:**
1. Is the date format **DD/MM/YYYY** (5 July = the 5th)?
2. Ready to import into **CHECKING** account?

pass csv-import-maps-accented-category-header

- **Libellé** (short label / note)
- **Montant** (amount)
- **Catégorie** (category name)
- **Revenu/dépense** (expense/income type: "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income presumably)

**Proposed mapping:**

| Date | date | Format: DD/MM/YYYY (e.g., 05/07/2026 = 5 July 2026) |

| Montant | amount | Transaction amount |
| Catégorie | category | Will create/reuse categories: Dining, Groceries, Transport |
| Revenu/dépense | type | "Dépense" → expense, "Revenu" → income |

**Before I import, I need:**
1. **Currency** — what currency are these transactions in? (EUR, USD, etc.)
2. **Account** — which account should these go to? (CHECKING, SAVINGS, CREDIT, CASH)
3. **Date format confirmation** — the dates look like DD/MM/YYYY (so 05/07/2026 = 5 July 2026, not July 5th). Correct?

Good! The file has 8 rows and contains French labels. Here's the **column mapping I propose**:

| File Column | Maps to | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| **Date** | `date` | Format appears to be **DD/MM/YYYY** (05/07/2026 = 5 July 2026) |
| **Libellé** | `note` | Short transaction label |
| **Montant** | `amount` | Transaction amount |
| **Catégorie** | `category` | Category name (Dining, Groceries, Transport, etc.) |
| **Revenu/dépense** | `type` | Expense/income direction (values: "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income) |

**One key question before I proceed:**

The date format — does `05/07/2026` mean **5 July** (DD/MM/YYYY) or **7 May** (MM/DD/YYYY)? Looking at the sample, all dates fall in July 2026, which suggests **DD/MM/YYYY is correct**. Can you confirm?

Once you confirm, I'll also need to know **which account** these transactions belong to (Checking, Savings, Credit, or Cash)?
user sim
The date format is dd/MM/yyyy, so 05/07/2026 is 5 July.

These belong to checking.
Cameron
Your currency is not yet set. Given the French file and amounts like €4.50, €12.00, etc., these look like **EUR** transactions. Should I set your default currency to **EUR** and import these with that code?

Yes, set it to EUR and save it as my default.

Your currency is not yet set. Looking at the file (dates in July 2026, French labels), **what currency should I use for these transactions — EUR, USD, or something else?**

**2. Date format confirmation:**

The dates in your file look like `05/07/2026`, `06/07/2026`, etc. In French convention, that's typically **DD/MM/YYYY** — so `05/07/2026` = **5 July 2026**. Is that correct?

Once you confirm both, I'll propose the full mapping.
user sim
EUR for the currency, and yes, that's the right date format.
Cameron
Great. Now here's my proposed **column mapping**:

| File Column | Maps To | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| **Date** | `date` | Format: `dd/MM/yyyy` (5 July 2026 = 05/07/2026) |
| **Libellé** | `note` | Short transaction label |
| **Montant** | `amount` | Transaction amount in EUR |
| **Catégorie** | `category` | Category name (Dining, Groceries, Transport, etc.) |
| **Revenu/dépense** | `type` | Expense/income flag: "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income |

**All columns are mapped.** The type values I see are:
- **"Dépense"** → expense
- *(I assume "Revenu" for income, though all sample rows show "Dépense")*

**Account:** Since you didn't specify, I'll default to **CHECKING**. Is that right, or should these go to a different account (SAVINGS, CREDIT, CASH)?

Once you confirm the account, I'll import.
user sim
Yes, checking is right. Go ahead.
Cameron
**Done.** ✓

Imported **8 transactions** to CHECKING in EUR:
- **8 imported**, 0 skipped, 0 bad dates
- **8 categorized** (Dining, Groceries, Transport, and a new category "Loisirs" auto-created)
- **0 uncategorized**
- 1 new category created: **Loisirs**

All rows matched the date format perfectly. Your transactions are in the ledger.

Your currency is not set yet. Based on the French labels in the file (Libellé, Montant, Catégorie, Revenu/dépense, Dépense), this appears to be EUR. **Which currency should I use for these transactions — EUR or something else?**

Once you confirm, here's the mapping I propose:

| File Column | Maps To | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| **Date** | date | Format: DD/MM/YYYY (05/07/2026 = 5 July 2026) |
| **Libellé** | note | Transaction description |

| **Catégorie** | category | Will reuse existing categories or create new ones |
| **Revenu/dépense** | type | "Dépense" = expense, "Revenu" = income |

I'm not mapping anything else — all 5 columns are accounted for.

Please confirm:
1. **Currency** — EUR or other?
2. **Date format** — these are DD/MM/YYYY, correct? (05/07/2026 = 5 July, not July 5)?

Once you confirm, I'll proceed with the import.

EUR is correct. And yes, the date format is DD/MM/YYYY, so 05/07/2026 is 5 July. That all looks right to me.

I see the currency isn't set yet. Given the French column headers and transactions with dates in July 2026, **what currency should I use for these transactions?** (e.g., EUR for euros, USD, GBP, etc.)

Great! I can see the structure. Before I proceed with the mapping, I need to clarify one thing:

## Date Format Confirmation

The **Date** column shows values like `05/07/2026`. This is ambiguous — it could be:
- **DD/MM/YYYY** (5 July 2026), or  
- **MM/DD/YYYY** (May 7, 2026)

Looking at the sample data, the transactions appear to be sequential July entries (05/07, 06/07, 07/07, 08/07, 09/07), which strongly suggests **DD/MM/YYYY** format (5 July through 9 July, 2026).

**Can you confirm:** Are these dates in DD/MM/YYYY format (day/month/year)?

Once you confirm, I'll also need to check your default currency before importing. I'll proceed after you answer.
user sim
Yes, DD/MM/YYYY is correct.
Cameron
Your currency is not yet set. Looking at the file — with French headers and merchant names like "Café du matin", "Boulangerie", "Métro" — **what currency should these transactions be imported in?** (e.g., EUR, USD, etc.)
user sim
EUR
Cameron
Excellent! Currency is set to **EUR**. Now here's the **proposed column mapping** for your import:

| File Column | Maps To | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| **Date** | `date` | Transaction date (DD/MM/YYYY format) |
| **Libellé** | `note` | Short transaction label |
| **Montant** | `amount` | Transaction amount |
| **Catégorie** | `category` | Spending category |
| **Revenu/dépense** | `type` | Expense or Income (Dépense = expense, Revenu = income) |

**Type mapping:** "Dépense" → expense, "Revenu" → income

All columns are mapped. Ready to import **8 transactions** into your **CHECKING account** in **EUR**?
