Find the right client context

Use this when you are switching between clients or checking whether a token is workspace-bound.

kick workspaces list
kick --workspace <workspace-id> whoami

Review transactions that need attention

kick --workspace <workspace-id> transactions find --since 2026-01-01 --until 2026-01-31 --limit 25
kick --workspace <workspace-id> transactions find --since 2026-01-01 --until 2026-01-31 --fields id,date,amount,counterparty,bank_description --output json

Use --fields to keep output focused when another tool or agent needs to read the result.

Pull reports for review

kick reports profit-loss --entity 123 --start-date 2026-01-01 --end-date 2026-01-31 --basis cash --cycle month
kick reports balance-sheet --entity 123 --start-date 2026-01-01 --end-date 2026-01-31 --basis cash --output json
kick reports trial-balance --entity 123 --start-date 2026-01-01 --end-date 2026-01-31 --basis cash --output json

Use JSON output when another tool or script needs to read the result.

Inspect activity before changing anything

kick --workspace <workspace-id> activity list --resource-type transaction --changed-fields categoryId --limit 10
kick --workspace <workspace-id> activity logs --resource-type transaction --limit 10 --output json

For deeper review:

kick --workspace <workspace-id> activity details --date 2026-04-01T00:00:00.000Z --source-type transaction_bulk_update --grouped --output json

Pipe output to another tool

The CLI writes data to stdout and diagnostics to stderr, so stdout can be piped safely:

kick --workspace <workspace-id> transactions find --limit 10 --output json | jq '.[0].id'

For agent workflows, prefer compact structured output:

kick --workspace <workspace-id> transactions find --limit 25 --output json-compact

Preview supported write actions

Preview-first commands return a confirmation token. Review the preview, then pass the token or use the documented confirmation flag only when you are ready.

Do not automate confirmation unless the workflow has been reviewed and approved by your firm.
