The user guide mentions that a category will be created automatically if it does not exist when adding an expense via add-expense. It doesn’t clarify if the same applies when tagging an expense to a non-existent category via tag-expense.
While this issue will not prevent program usage outright, if users expect automatic category creation during tagging (as with adding expenses), this could cause confusion or unexpected errors.
A suggested way of addressing this is to add the category creation functionality to tag-expense, or specify that only add-expense creates new categories automatically.
