riseup-cli

Unofficial CLI and agentic skill for RiseUp personal finance. Full programmatic access to your financial data — including features the web app buries — via the terminal and AI agents like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, and OpenClaw.

Installation · Commands · Claude Skill · Docs · Contributing

RiseUp is an Israeli personal finance app with no public API. This CLI was built by reverse-engineering the internal API that powers the RiseUp web app, so you can access your own financial data programmatically — from the terminal or through AI agents like Claude Code. All requests go directly from your machine to RiseUp's servers using your own session cookies. Nothing is proxied, stored, or sent anywhere else.

[!WARNING] Unofficial Library – Use at Your Own Risk

This tool uses undocumented RiseUp APIs that can change without notice.

• Not affiliated with RiseUp – This is a community project
• APIs may break – RiseUp can change internal endpoints anytime
• Your data stays local – All requests go directly from your machine to RiseUp's servers using your own session cookies. Nothing is proxied, stored, or sent anywhere else.

Features

• Spending breakdown — by category, merchant, or payment source
• Income tracking — salary, benefits, and all income sources
• Transaction search — filter by merchant, category, amount, type
• Transaction management — classify, rename, comment, exclude, merge
• Bank balances & investments — balances, securities portfolio, savings, loans
• Credit card debt — debt per card at a glance
• Trends — month-over-month income vs. expenses, fixed vs. variable breakdown
• Financial progress — savings recommendations and spending trend analysis
• Claude Code skill — ask Claude about your finances in natural language
• JSON output — pipe to jq, scripts, or any tool

Requirements

| Requirement | Version | |-------------|---------| | Node.js | 22+ | | Google Chrome | Latest |

Installation

npm install -g riseup-cli

Or install from GitHub:

npm install -g github:arsolutioner/riseup-cli

Then install the browser dependency:

npx playwright install chromium

[!TIP] Both riseup and riseup-cli work as commands.

Authentication

RiseUp uses Google OAuth. The CLI opens a real Chrome window so you can sign in manually — no passwords are stored or transmitted by this tool.

riseup login     # Opens Chrome, sign in, session saved
riseup status    # Check login status and account info
riseup logout    # Clear session

[!TIP] Sessions are stored at ~/.config/riseup-cli/session.json with chmod 0600. The browser uses a persistent profile with automation detection disabled so Google OAuth works normally.
