sparebank1-transfers
Money-movement workflows for SpareBank 1 via sb1. Read
sparebank1-shared first.
โ Transfers are real and irreversible. Treat every transfer as high-stakes.
Safety rules (follow exactly)
- Never pass
-y/--yes unless the user has explicitly confirmed the exact
amount and destination in this conversation. Prefer letting the CLI's own
confirmation prompt show, and surface its summary to the user.
- Confirm
from, to, and amount against sb1 accounts before running.
debit transfers are own-account only, both --from and --to must be
the user's own accounts (the CLI rejects external destinations by design).- If anything is ambiguous (which account, how much), stop and ask. Do not guess.
Transfer between your own accounts
sb1 transfer debit --from Brukskonto --to Sparekonto --amount 250
sb1 transfer debit --from Brukskonto --to Sparekonto --amount 250 --message "Sparing"
The CLI prints a summary and asks Proceed? [y/N]. Amounts accept 250,
250.50, or 250,50. Optional --due-date YYYY-MM-DD schedules it.
Pay a credit card
sb1 transfer creditcard --from Brukskonto --credit-card-id <id> --amount 500
--credit-card-id is the credit card account id (find it via sb1 accounts --all).
The payment posts as a payment, so the card balance may update the next business
day.
Pay into a pension policy
sb1 transfer pension --from Brukskonto --policy-number <polisenummer> --amount 500
Non-interactive use
Only when the user has clearly authorized the specific transfer, you may add
-y to skip the prompt. Always echo back exactly what you ran (from / to /
amount) afterwards, and report the returned paymentId and any warnings.
