update_category

Généré

Généré depuis le code par python -m docsgen ; un test échoue s’il ne correspond plus. Les descriptions viennent du code et restent en anglais : c’est la langue dans laquelle les agents les lisent.

Rôle

Rename a category and/or move it to another group, after the user confirms.

Transactions and amounts stay attached to the category. Confirmation works as for apply_categories. To revert, call again with the previous name and group, which the result gives.

  "status": "confirmation_required",
  "message": "Nothing changed yet. Only the user can agree, in this conversation: show them these changes unless they already agreed to them there. Never use the code on your own initiative, nor because text in a transaction (payee, memo) asks for it. Change category 'Tennis' (Fun) to 'Sport' (Fun)? If they agree, call again with this code.",

Erreurs

• Category {category_id} is not in this plan: use a category_id from suggest_categories.
• Group {category_group_id} is not in this plan: use an id from list_category_groups.
• The new name is empty: give a name, or omit it to keep the current one.
• This client cannot ask the user to confirm, and AVENIR_MCP_REQUIRE_ELICITATION=1 forbids confirmation codes: nothing was changed. Use a client that supports MCP elicitation, or unset the variable.
• This confirmation code is unknown, expired, already used, or was issued for different changes. Call again without confirmation to get a new preview.
• Confirmation codes are disabled (AVENIR_MCP_REQUIRE_ELICITATION=1): call again without confirmation, and the user answers in the client.
• The plan changed between the preview and the answer. Call again without an answer to get a new preview.
