Implement fava endpoints to become an MCP

[abourget]

I want to use fava in a ChatBot interface, like Claude Desktop.

This would allow me to interact with fava through a chat interface, and have all the power of the engine.

Are there plans for this? Would a PR be accepted? There are plenty of python libs to do so. I was thinking a small shim above the API layer could do it.

Fava is primarily a user interface for Beancount. An MCP server (for Beancount) is explicitly not a user but a tool interface so I don't think that fits here.
