Transaction Categorization Agent for ChatGPT

The $19 Transaction Categorization Agent runs on ChatGPT as three plain-text files: set it up once in a ChatGPT Project, approve a sample-data test, then trigger each run with the usage prompt and this run's inputs.

What the Transaction Categorization Agent does

If your week already starts in ChatGPT, this agent drops straight into that habit. It proposes a category for every uncoded transaction with the evidence: date, payee, amount, proposed category, evidence, review status. You approve the batch.

Uncoded transactions pile up all month, and categorizing them means reading payee strings and trying to remember how you coded the same vendor last time.

Where the three files go in ChatGPT

Create a Project for the job, upload skill.md as a Project file and paste the setup prompt into the Project instructions. Run the setup once, approve the sample-data test, then start each run inside that Project so the rules stay loaded.

What a run looks like on ChatGPT

A run looks like this: you open the Project, paste the usage prompt with this run's inputs, and ChatGPT works through transaction-categorization with the skill rules loaded. The output - it proposes a category for every uncoded transaction with the evidence: date, payee, amount, proposed category, evidence, review status - comes back as a draft you approve, adjust or discard; nothing is final until you say so.

Setup, step by step

  1. Create a Project in ChatGPT and name it after the job (for example: transaction categorization).
  2. Upload skill.md as a Project file and paste setup-prompt.txt into the Project instructions.
  3. Start the setup conversation inside the Project; the agent runs transaction-categorization on fictional sample data first - approve that test before real work.
  4. For each real run, open the same Project and paste usage-prompt.txt with this run's inputs. The rules stay loaded because they live in the Project.

Honest limits on ChatGPT

Projects and file uploads depend on your ChatGPT plan; check OpenAI's help center for current limits. Outside a Project, chat context resets and you re-paste the rules.
