🎃 New adapter: Qonto business banking (read-only)

Start with the adapter checklist in .github/CONTRIBUTING.md:136 and the adapter guide in #150, then compare fr/pennylane.json, intl/revolut-business.json, de/jtl-wawi.json:22, and de/clockodo.json:66. Create fr/qonto.json with the seven specified read-only tools, required environment variables, docs URL, and sandbox instructions; add fr/qonto.live.spec.ts and the logo. Validate with npx jest src/adapters/fr/qonto, validate-adapters.mjs --warn, catalog regeneration, and adapter-count.mjs --check.

Part of the October Challenge #846.

Why

Qonto is one of Europe's largest business accounts for SMBs and freelancers, with large user bases in France, Italy, Germany and Spain. Its Business API covers transactions, client and supplier invoices, and quotes. With an adapter, a user could ask "which card payments over €500 last month have no receipt?", "list unpaid client invoices due this week" or "what came in from customer X?". The catalog has Revolut Business and Wise but no Qonto (ls packages/backend/src/adapters/*/ | grep -i qonto finds nothing).

Self-hosted vs Cloud

• Self-hosted: available in Community and Business. Catalog adapters have no edition gating.
• Cloud (DEPLOYMENT_MODE=cloud): available. thirdparty.qonto.com is public, so the SSRF guard allows it. On Cloud trial plans, installs count toward the trial's connector limit (license-guard.service.ts:65).
• Who can use it: any role except VIEWER can install it (adapters.controller.ts:207). The connector and its encrypted authConfig belong to the installer's organization, so bank credentials are per organization and never shared. Because this is bank data, instructions must recommend assigning the connector only to MCP servers whose users may see the company's bank account.

What to build

packages/backend/src/adapters/fr/qonto.json (Qonto is French; the fr/ region already holds Pennylane and Sellsy). Start with npm run adapter:new -- qonto --region fr --auth API_KEY.

• API docs: https://docs.qonto.com/get-started/business-api/authentication/api-key and the reference at https://docs.qonto.com (agent-friendly index: https://docs.qonto.com/llms.txt).
• Base URL: https://thirdparty.qonto.com/v2.
• Auth: API_KEY with headerName: "Authorization" and apiKey: "{{QONTO_LOGIN}}:{{QONTO_SECRET_KEY}}". Login and secret are joined by a colon with no Base64 and no Bearer. The same composite-header trick is used in de/jtl-wawi.json:22. Credentials: Qonto web app → Integrations & Partnerships → API key.
• Category: banking. probe: qonto_get_organization.
• Pagination: page, per_page. Filters use bracket names (filter[status]); map them in queryParams as de/clockodo.json:66 does.

All tools are GET, so they are derived as readOnlyHint: true, destructiveHint: false (docs/tool-definition.md:503-545). The tool descriptions must say that qonto_list_transactions needs a bank account id from qonto_get_organization first.

Where to look

• packages/backend/src/adapters/fr/pennylane.json — a French finance adapter of similar size (10 tools).
• packages/backend/src/adapters/intl/revolut-business.json — another banking adapter; copy the tone of its instructions for money data.
• packages/backend/src/adapters/de/jtl-wawi.json:22 — custom Authorization value through API_KEY.
• packages/backend/src/adapters/de/clockodo.json:66 — filter[...] query params.
• packages/backend/src/adapters/intl/todoist.live.spec.ts — spec template; live calls behind RUN_QONTO_LIVE=1.
• .github/CONTRIBUTING.md:136 — the "Add an adapter" checklist; #150 — good-first-issue adapter guide.

Acceptance criteria

• fr/qonto.json exists with the 7 read-only tools, requiredEnvVars: ["QONTO_LOGIN","QONTO_SECRET_KEY"], and a docsUrl.
• No tool uses POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE (asserted in the spec).
• validate-adapters.mjs --warn is clean (the validator requires instructions ≥ 800 chars and each tool description ≥ 60 chars, scripts/validate-adapters.mjs:32); catalog.ts is regenerated; adapter-count.mjs --check passes.
• fr/qonto.live.spec.ts: static checks (base URL, Authorization header template contains :, read-only methods); with RUN_QONTO_LIVE=1 it calls /organization and /transactions in the sandbox. npx jest src/adapters/fr/qonto passes in packages/backend.
• Logo at packages/frontend/public/logos/connectors/qonto.svg.
• instructions explain the sandbox: base URL https://thirdparty-sandbox.staging.qonto.co/v2 plus header X-Qonto-Staging-Token (connector headers can be edited after install).
• Docs updated: optional content/guides/en/qonto-to-mcp.mdx.

Out of scope

• Any money movement: SEPA/internal transfers, beneficiaries, cards, bulk transfers. Those need OAuth plus strong customer authentication, and are a deliberate non-goal for a first adapter.
• Creating or deleting invoices, clients or attachments; attachment upload (multipart).
• The OAuth flow (OAUTH2). It can come later if Qonto partners ask.

Free / sandbox account: sign up on the Qonto Developer Portal (https://developers.qonto.com) and create an application. It gives you a sandbox organization with test data and a staging token. No real Qonto account needed.
