Prompt patterns that produce clean drafts.

Claude works best with Extrack when prompts include the amount, the kind hint and an account hint. Examples that produce clean drafts: "log a ₹500 lunch at HDFC", "salary ₹95,000 to HDFC Savings", "split ₹1200 dinner with Rahul and Priya". Claude infers category and person from your directory via the on-device suggestion logic.
Patterns that work
- "Log ₹500 expense from <account> for <category hint>"
- "I lent <person> ₹X in cash"
- "Salary ₹X to <account>"
- "Transfer ₹X from <bank> to <card>"
- "Split ₹X dinner with <name1>, <name2>"
Frequently asked
Can Claude post directly without my approval?
No — every draft requires an explicit "Add to ledger" tap in the Automation inbox.
