50 tools agents can invoke
Use AI to find the best matching SKR categories by name or description. ⚠️ SME ONLY — this tool works exclusively for GmbH/UG companies with a DATEV chart of accounts (SKR03/SKR04). For freelance accounts use 'categorize_transaction' which has its own AI-powered category detection. Sends the query to OpenAI along with the full SKR catalog as context, so it can semantically match even vague or partial descriptions. Returns up to 5 best matching entries with accountNumber, nameDe, nameEn. NOTE: This calls OpenAI — prefer search_skr_by_code when you have a code.
