What you can ask OpenClaw

Answers come back as text, worked out from your Marnie summary.

OpenClaw sees only the summary Marnie shares. Balances, net worth, notes, receipts, card and account numbers and your location never leave your phone.

  • “How much did I spend this month?”Your total and the top categories, with last month alongside. Also works for today, this week, last month and this year.
  • “What did I spend on coffee last month?”The matching payments from the last 90 days, filtered by category, merchant or type, with the total.
  • “Which bills are coming up?”The next bills and payday Marnie knows about, with dates and amounts.
  • “Am I safe to spend this weekend?”What's left in your budget for the period and how much that is per day.
  • “How close am I to my savings goals?”Each goal's progress, saved amount and target.
  • “Add a $12 lunch at Subway”A draft in Capture Review, if you allowed suggestions when you connected. It's saved once you approve it.

OpenClaw and Marnie: questions

Is Marnie an OpenClaw skill or an MCP server?

An MCP server. You add the Marnie link as a remote MCP server, and OpenClaw signs in with OAuth.

Can OpenClaw log purchases for me?

Yes, if you allow it when you connect. Each one arrives as a draft in Marnie's Capture Review, up to 30 a day, and nothing is saved until you approve it.
