LHV Bank CLI Skill

Interact with LHV Bank through the lhv CLI — check balances, view transactions, switch accounts, and make SEPA payments.

Pre-flight: Check Authentication

Before any operation, verify the session is valid:

lhv whoami

If expired or not authenticated, authenticate first:

lhv auth --id <ESTONIAN_ID_CODE>

The auth command will:

1. Initiate Smart-ID authentication
2. Print a verification code — tell the user to confirm it on their phone
3. Wait for smartphone confirmation (up to 2 minutes)
4. Save session to system keyring

If the user has multiple persons (personal + business), pass --user-id and --account-id to skip interactive prompts:

lhv auth --id <ID_CODE> --user-id <USER_ID> --account-id <ACCOUNT_ID>

To discover available person/user IDs, authenticate first then use:

lhv switch-account --list

Commands

Check identity

lhv whoami

Shows the authenticated user, active person (Personal/Business), and session status.

List accounts

lhv get-accounts

View transactions

lhv get-transactions --portfolio <PORTFOLIO_ID> --from <DD.MM.YYYY> --to <DD.MM.YYYY>

Defaults to the current month if --from/--to are omitted. Use --raw for CSV output. Use --limit 0 to show all.

Switch person/account

List available persons:

lhv switch-account --list

Switch non-interactively:

lhv switch-account --user-id <USER_ID> --account-id <ACCOUNT_ID>

Make a SEPA payment

lhv pay \
  --from "<SENDER_IBAN>" \
  --to "<RECIPIENT_IBAN>" \
  --name "<RECIPIENT_NAME>" \
  --amount "<AMOUNT>" \
  --description "<DESCRIPTION>" \
  --reference "<REFERENCE>" \
  --confirm

The --confirm flag skips the interactive confirmation prompt. Smart-ID signing is always required — print the verification code and tell the user to confirm on their phone.

Important

• Always run lhv whoami before any operation to check session status
• If session is expired, run lhv auth before retrying
• All interactive/fzf prompts are disabled by default — pass --interactive to enable them
• For payments, always show the user a summary and ask for confirmation before running the command
• Smart-ID verification codes timeout after 2 minutes
• The --list flag on switch-account outputs JSON, useful for discovering IDs programmatically
