What it does

Finance Ledger is an agent skill from manor-os/manor-ai. Read, query, and record validated income, expense, invoice, bill, payment, refund, transfer, adjustment, and journal-entry facts in the active Workspace Finance Ledger.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `config.json`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Forms and invoices and Accounting and bookkeeping. The repository describes itself as: Source-available, self-hosted AI agent workspace for small businesses and lean teams — with BYOK, workflows, tools, and human approvals.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Forms and invoices
  • Tasks that involve Accounting and bookkeeping

Example prompts

  • “/finance-ledger”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 140c09a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Finance Ledger loads about 440 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 200 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~440

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 200 words (~440 tokens).

“Use the Finance Ledger as the Workspace's append-only financial database. The AI may plan or operate connected financial workflows, but the Ledger stores only verified entries and their evidence.”
