Scenario

Prompt
Please analyze my credit card statements from ~/finances/statements/ folder: 1. Identify all recurring subscription charges 2. Group them by category (streaming, software, news, etc.) 3. Calculate monthly and annual totals 4. Flag any subscriptions that: - Have very similar functions (like multiple streaming services) - I haven't used in the past 30 days (if usage data available) - Have increased in price recently 5. Create a summary with recommendations for potential cancellations
