splitwise
Manage shared expenses via the Splitwise CLI. Use when asked to log, split, or track expenses with other people, check balances, see who owes whom, settle debts, or list recent charges. Triggers on mentions of Splitwise, shared expenses, splitting costs, "log this expense," "who owes what," roommate/partner bills, or any expense-tracking request. Even casual mentions like "split this with a roommate" or "add the internet bill" should trigger this skill.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/barronlroth/splitwise-cliSplitwise CLI Skill
Manage shared expenses, balances, and settlements through the splitwise CLI.
Setup
This skill requires the splitwise CLI to be installed and available on PATH. It uses OAuth 2.0 credentials stored at ~/.config/splitwise-cli/auth.json. If auth expires, the CLI will tell you — run splitwise auth to re-authenticate (requires browser OAuth flow).
If a default group is already configured locally, you can omit --group. Otherwise, pass --group explicitly.
Quick Reference
Check balances
# Default group balances
splitwise balances
# Specific group
splitwise balances --group "Trip"
List expenses
# Recent expenses in default group
splitwise expenses list --limit 10
# Date-filtered
splitwise expenses list --after 2026-03-01 --before 2026-03-31
# Different group
splitwise expenses list --group "Trip" --limit 5
Create an expense
# Even split, you paid
splitwise expenses create "Internet - March" 51.30
# Custom exact split (60/40, 70/30, any ratio)
splitwise expenses create "Utilities - March 2026" 254.80 --split "exact:MemberA:152.88,MemberB:101.92"
splitwise expenses create "Rent - April" 9300 --split "exact:MemberA:7300,MemberB:2000"
# Another member paid
splitwise expenses create "Groceries" 87.50 --paid-by "MemberB"
# Another member paid with custom split
splitwise expenses create "Dinner" 120.00 --paid-by "MemberB" --split "exact:MemberA:80,MemberB:40"
# Different group

Patterns for Common Tasks
Log a recurring shared bill
Include the month in the description to avoid confusion:
splitwise expenses create "Internet - March 2026" 51.30
Check before logging (avoid duplicates)
splitwise expenses list --after 2026-03-01 --limit 50 --json
Search the output for matching descriptions before creating.
Batch-log multiple expenses
Run multiple splitwise expenses create commands in sequence. No special syntax.

- "not logged in" → Run
