## Description

Gatherings MCP Server provides a tool for managing shared expenses in social events, helping users track costs, calculate reimbursements, and settle balances between friends. Built with a TypeScript wrapper around a Python backend using SQLAlchemy for data persistence, it offers features like creating gatherings, adding expenses, recording payments, and calculating who owes what to whom. The server uses a non-standard architecture where the Node.js component translates MCP requests to command-line calls to the Python implementation, making it suitable for personal expense tracking in group settings while acknowledging areas for architectural improvement.
