QuickBooks CLI for AI Agents

Use the QuickBooks CLI from KosmoKrator to call QuickBooks tools headlessly, return JSON, inspect schemas, and automate workflows from coding agents, scripts, and CI.

QuickBooks CLI Setup

QuickBooks can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure quickbooks`.

Install, configure, and verify 
# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure quickbooks --set access_token="$QUICKBOOKS_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor quickbooks --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: Manual OAuth token oauth2_manual_token. Configure credentials once, then reuse the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua, and MCP.

KeyEnv varTypeRequiredLabel
access_token QUICKBOOKS_ACCESS_TOKEN Secret secret yes Access Token
base_url QUICKBOOKS_BASE_URL URL url no Base URL

Command Patterns

The generic command is stable across every integration. The provider shortcut is shorter for humans.

Generic CLI call 
kosmo integrations:call quickbooks.quickbooks_list_invoices '{"limit":1}' --json
Provider shortcut 
kosmo integrations:quickbooks quickbooks_list_invoices '{"limit":1}' --json

Discovery

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function.

Discovery commands 
kosmo integrations:docs quickbooks --json
kosmo integrations:docs quickbooks.quickbooks_list_invoices --json
kosmo integrations:schema quickbooks.quickbooks_list_invoices --json
kosmo integrations:search "QuickBooks" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Automation Contexts

The same configured command surface works in these environments. The command does not change unless the host wrapper, credentials, or permissions change.

CI Run integration calls from CI jobs with JSON output, explicit credentials, and predictable exit status. Cron Jobs Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config. Shell Scripts Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output. Headless Automation Use KosmoKrator as a non-interactive integration runtime for local automations and wrappers. Coding Agents Let coding agents discover schemas and execute integration functions through CLI commands or MCP.

Permissions

Headless calls still follow the integration read/write permission policy. Configure read/write defaults with integrations:configure. Add --force only for trusted automation that should bypass that policy.
