Tally MCP server

Ask an AI assistant about your books. The server speaks the Model Context Protocol, so Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients can read balances, statements, the trial balance, outstanding bills, the day book and stock of the companies you synced, in a conversation.

Endpoint https://acc.ejiapi.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). It uses your own accounting key (acc_…), the same one as the REST API, so the assistant sees exactly the companies your key may read and nothing else. Finance keys do not work here; the finance MCP server is at fin.ejiapi.com/mcp-server.

Claude Desktop reaches remote servers through the mcp-remote helper, which needs Node.js. Your key reads your accounts: keep it out of shared config files and repositories, and prefer a key limited to the companies the assistant needs.

Try without a key

Connect without the header and every tool reads Demo Traders Pvt Ltd, the made-up company of the explorer. Answers then carry "demo": true.

Tools

All tools are read-only. Amounts are debit-positive: a debit balance is positive, a credit balance negative. Pass company as an id or name from tally_list_companies, or - when your key reads one company.

Example questions

Your data

The server keeps no session: each request uses the key it came with and nothing else, so one user's key can never answer another user's question.
Tools only read. Nothing can change your books on EJI or in Tally.
The assistant you connect sends the answers to its own model provider. Connect only assistants you are allowed to share these books with.
Calls count against your key's quota like REST calls. Demo calls are limited per visitor.
