+`@actual-app/api` publishes TypeScript declarations. Consumers using TypeScript must set `moduleResolution` to `"bundler"`, `"nodenext"`, or `"node16"` in their `tsconfig.json`. Legacy `"node"` / `"node10"` / `"classic"` resolution is not supported in strict mode — the published declarations rely on package.json `exports` conditions that older resolvers don't honor.

 ### Amount Convention
 
-All monetary amounts are **integer cents**:
+All monetary amounts are **integer cents** when passed as input (flags, JSON):
 
 | CLI Value | Dollar Amount |
 | --------- | ------------- |
 | `5000`    | $50.00        |
 | `-12350`  | -$123.50      |
 
+**Output formatting:** Table (`--format table`) and CSV (`--format csv`) output automatically converts cent values to decimal (e.g. `1665.00` instead of `166500`). JSON output always returns raw cents for programmatic use.
+
+### Tips & Common Pitfalls
+
+- **Split transactions:** When summing or counting transactions, filter `"is_parent": false` to avoid double-counting. A split parent holds the total amount, and its children hold the individual parts — including both would count the total twice.
+
+- **Rapid sequential requests:** The CLI caches the budget locally (see [Caching](#caching)), so read-heavy scripts no longer need a single-query workaround by default. For very chatty scripts, run `actual sync` once and then use a long `--cache-ttl` for reads:
+
+  ```bash
+  actual sync
+  actual --cache-ttl 3600 query run ...
+  actual --cache-ttl 3600 accounts list
+  ```
+
+- **Uncategorized transactions:** `category.name` is `null` for transactions without a category. Account for this when filtering or grouping by category.
+
+- **No date sub-fields in AQL:** `date.month`, `date.year`, etc. are not supported as query fields. To group by month, fetch raw transactions with a date range filter and aggregate locally in a script.
+
+## Caching
+
+The CLI keeps a local copy of your budget so repeated commands don't hit the sync server on every call. Within the TTL (default `60` seconds), read commands (`list`, `balance`, `query run`, …) reuse the cached budget without a network round-trip. Write commands (`add`, `update`, `set-amount`, …) always sync with the server before and after the write.
+
+- `actual sync` — refresh the cache now.
+- `actual sync --status` — show how stale the local cache is.
+- `actual sync --clear` — delete the local cache; the next command re-downloads.
+- `--refresh` (or `--no-cache`) — force a sync on a single call.
+- `--cache-ttl <seconds>` — override the TTL for a single call (use `0` to disable caching).
+
+### Concurrency
+
+The CLI takes a shared lock for reads and an exclusive lock for writes on the per-budget cache directory. Many parallel reads are safe; writes serialize. If another CLI process is holding the lock, subsequent invocations wait up to `--lock-timeout` seconds (default `10`) before failing with an error. Pass `--no-lock` to opt out in trusted single-process setups.
