What trial-balance does on Tally Prime MCP Server

AI agents call trial-balance to retrieve information from Tally Prime MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why trial-balance needs a policy

The tool retrieves financial report data (trial balance) from Tally Prime ERP and caches it in an in-memory table for querying. It performs no writes, deletions, or financial transactions — it is purely a read/fetch operation. The in-memory caching is ephemeral and non-destructive. Severity is low as misuse only exposes financial report data without any side effects.

From the tool's definition fetches trial balance with fields ledger_name, group_name, opening_balance, net_debit, net_credit, closing_balance... returns output cached in pglite postgres in-memory table
