Gmail Trigger picks up mails with the label `receipts` and a PDF. The PDF text is extracted, and Claude reads the PDF into JSON.\n2. **Code checks it:** the amounts must be written in the PDF text, quantity × price must equal each line, lines + tax must equal the total. A failed check is saved as **Needs review** with the reason. A scan with no text is flagged, not trusted.\n3. Paste your card statement into the `Card` tab, run **Reconcile now**. Code matches by amount and date window and writes the `Matches` tab: Matched, Ambiguous, No receipt, Possible double charge, Near match, Receipt only, Duplicate receipt.\n4. A Slack message lists what needs a human.\n\n### Setup\n1. Blank Google Sheet: paste its ID in **Spreadsheet ID**, run **Run once** (adds the Receipts, Card and Matches tabs), then select the sheet in the Google Sheets nodes.\n2. Credentials: Gmail, Google Sheets, Anthropic, Slack (pick a channel the app is in). Create the Gmail label `receipts`.\n3.
