The whole re-audit through the tools: books.audit previews its checks, then
with the preview's digest runs them, files the workpaper and journals the
run; the same books, day and scope return the run that exists.
books.attest_receipt, books.review_entry and books.attest_period record a
named client's claim with its self-reported method; books.attestations
weighs each against policy.attestation_bar as it stands. Under
policy.cpa_package_requires_audit = refuse, books that declared audits
cannot export the CPA package without a counted audit for the handoff at the
current head unless a reason is given, which is journaled as a decision
(D-9). Needs attention asks for the month-end attestation, the annual audit
and the audit before the handoff. Rules B-45, the handbook section, the
interface, parity, receipt-store and testing records, and the As-built
block. Merge needs no go-ahead: the live books refuse the new writes until
the owner gives it.

bookspec/spec holds the first edition: the model and the five laws
(00-model.md) and one file per area, each B-rule a section with its
status, a MUST/MAY statement, sources pinned either to a vendored source
with a verbatim quotation or to an exact external paragraph, its symbolic
form, its examples and its applicability. B-39, B-40, B-43 and B-45 are
reserved sections (allocated, not yet stated in rules.md); B-44 is stated
in rules.md and now carries its bookspec id and CONVENTION status.
Eight new examples show the laws that had none, each figure worked by
hand: an unbalanced entry is refused (Pacioli ch. 36, Pub. 583), a
negative or zero line is refused, a fraction of a cent is refused (ISO
4217), a child account takes its parent's type, the trial balance and the
accounting equation on one small book (cash 6550.25 = loan 2000 + capital
5000 + (sales 750.50 - rent 1200.25)), a reversal leaves the original
standing and a second reversal is refused, a close sweeps revenue and
expenses into Retained Earnings (3999) and the closed quarter takes no
late entry, and cents add exactly. The refusal vocabulary gains
unbalanced, negative_amount, zero_amount, too_few_lines,
finer_than_minor_unit, parent_type_mismatch, already_reversed and
period_closed; a refused entry may carry a non-positive amount.
The checker's spec.rs fails the build on a rule without its section, a
statement without MUST/SHOULD/MAY, a pin that is not verbatim in its
vendored source, examples that differ from the catalogue, or more than 60
pages.

The last of the paused branches, from its "not for merge" checkpoint:
extraction in ledger-import (text, pages, page images; capped, caught),
journaled as attachment.text_extracted; dedup by hash with
books.find_attachment and books.consolidate_duplicates; annotations and
books.set_entry_settles; the company record categories; the two fuzz
targets; feature attachment_text. Nineteen files conflicted with the
four P4b merges, resolved as plan 8.0.2 says: P6 retakes schema 18 (it
had taken 16, which S4.3 holds; S5 holds 17); the tool table is 129 and
the destructive count 31; both sides' appends kept with their seams
restored; one B-27 paragraph naming every feature; in the old-books
fixture P6's hand-written reimbursement is entry 7 (its ids collided
with S4.3's invoice); the replay fuzzer's list gains S7's
invoice.written_off; S4.3's issued-PDF test expects the extraction
record P6 journals right after a filing.
One integration defect between S7 and P6, found by the arap property
test and fixed here: under P6's dedup, a write-off whose evidence bytes
were filed already (the same collection letter for a second write-off of
the same invoice) was refused only after its entry had been journaled,
at the final link to the invoice ("already linked"). The write-off now
resolves the dedup before anything is journaled and keeps a link the
record already has to the invoice instead of refusing it; an explicit
existing_attachment_id already on an entry is still refused (S7's
one-receipt-once rule). P6's gate never ran before the pause; it runs on
main after this merge, and its ledger-store -> ledger-import dependency
is the open review point (plan 8.0.1).

The fourth of the paused branches: Ledger::write_off and the bad_debts
control role, invoice.written_off with its evidence filed in the same
store call, books.write_off_invoice, the write-off on the timeline and
in Needs attention, Lean writeOff_within_bounds, rules.md B-41 and the
bookspec examples. Twenty-eight files conflicted with the S4.4, S5 and
S6 merges; resolved as plan 8.0.2 says, keeping both sides' appends with
their seams restored, and: the scope table at 125; S7's law numbered 37;
B-41 placed before B-42; the handbook's step 4 and recovery procedures
folded into the one invoices-and-bills section; S7's wire tests in their
own module with the confirm S4.4's contract needs; S7's copy of the
payment steps dropped (S6 replaced them with Ledger::settle) and its
write-off journaled through S6's journal_auto_lines; in the old-books
fixture S7's hand-written write-off moved to a second invoice, since
S6's hand-written payment settles invoice 1 in full.

One payment had to name one document and could take no discount or
processor fee, so paying several invoices from one deposit meant several
entries and the fee had nowhere to go. This adds the kernel's exact
settlement arithmetic (applications total, net deposit), a Ledger::settle
that posts one entry for a customer's or vendor's documents, and the gross
method and gross fee A-8/A-4 chose.
- kernel::settle: sum(cash)+sum(discounts)=applications, sum(cash)-fee=
deposit, None on overflow or a negative deposit. Kani settle_is_exact
plus the Decimal bridge.
- Ledger::settle / settlement_lines: one party and one kind per
settlement, one application per document, each cash+discount within
payment_room; a discount within the terms (discount_max and
discount_by) needs no reason, a larger or later one does; a bill with
an asset line is refused with D-49's remedy; a fee is a customer
payment's only and posts gross.
- Rows are payment lines in application order, then discount lines, the
fee line and the cash line, so a journaled event's line indices are
stable; replay tags exactly the line an event names and leaves an
unmatched line unattached (never refuses).
- receive_payment_with and pay_bill_with become one-application calls.
- Roles: sales_allowances (4100), purchase_discounts (6995) and
payment_processing_fees (6060), constants used on demand but not added
to control_accounts() (existing charts may use those codes for other
things).
- Lean: settle posts through Step.document, so settle_posts_a_document_step
and settle_unattached, no new constructor; both in Audit.lean.
- Core tests: bill_on_terms_with_discount, late_discount_needs_a_reason,
discount_on_an_asset_bill_is_refused_with_the_remedy,
a_fee_posts_gross_to_receivables_and_net_to_the_bank,
a_settlement_names_its_lines_and_refuses_a_document_twice, and
equipment_bill_payment_is_investing_cash in the cash-flow suite.
- Bookspec B-42 is stated, with its id BS-arap-6; the catalogue and index
now record it as CONVENTION.
just check and just prove green.
rules.md B-41 states the write-off: the direct method the owner chose
(A-5), Dr 6990 / Cr 1200 with the receivable tagged, at most what is
owed and at most the least owed from that day on (a partial write-off as
§1.166-3(a) allows), refused on cash-basis books (§1.166-1(e)), its
evidence filed in the same call (§1.166-2(a)); bills are never written
off (ASC 405-20-40-1); and a recovery is not a new movement (D-49): the
same year, reverse the write-off and record the payment; a later year, a
plain entry to a bad-debt-recoveries revenue account, the invoice staying
written off (IRC §111).
bookspec states B-41 for the first time and gives B-38 its example: two
new examples, bad-debt-direct-write-off (two partial write-offs of one
invoice, the balances and the trial balance worked by hand) and
arap-hand-control-posting-refused (a hand line an earlier version wrote
replays, the same line written today is refused). The example schema
gains the dated write_off event, lets a refused entry say so (an entry
posts whole or not at all; older and refused never combine), and its
refusal vocabulary gains untagged_control_line, B-38's control guard.
The registers: docs/architecture.md names the new tool group;
docs/receipt-store.md lists invoice.written_off and what replay does with
it; docs/parity.md records the slice (no row changes status, the floor
stands); docs/testing.md records every test and what P12 must mutate;
docs/verification.md the two Lean theorems and what they cover.
No figure moves: no golden file changed.
bookspec is a specification first: every rule normative and sourced,
every rule demonstrated by concrete examples, and any accounting engine
checked against them through one interface (D-34). This moves the
examples' schema out of the test that happened to parse them and makes
the interface explicit.
- `bookspec/checker` (its own workspace, inside this repository until
the harness is stable): `Example`, `Setup`, `Event`, `Expect`, `Query`,
`Refusal` and the TOML parser, every structure `deny_unknown_fields`,
with `Example::from_toml` checking the cross-field shape (closed lists,
exact decimal amounts, dates, one event kind, `reverses` counting from
1, the shares summing to 1, commands accepted or refused and not both).
- `Engine` (`load`, `apply`, `query`, `claims`) and `Refusal { rule,
reason }`; the refusal's rule is the bookspec identifier, so a refusal
names the rule it belongs to. `Claims` also carries the option an
engine picks for a CHOICE rule.
- `bookspec/runner` drives any `Engine` through the examples and reports
per rule: pass, fail, not claimed. It compares the answer itself; an
engine is never asked whether it agrees with itself.
- `crates/ledger-core/tests/bookspec.rs` is the wanderbooks adapter over
`Store`: the loader parses through the checker, its own checks are
unchanged, and the new `the_runner_reports_every_claimed_rule_green`
runs all 56 examples through the trait. The IIF appendix is answered
through `ledger_package::export_iif`, the code its own test checks.
- `just check` runs the bookspec workspace's fmt, clippy, rustdoc and
tests too, so an example cannot rot (D-34, Z-17).
The plan's trait has four methods and no path for an example's
`[[changes]]` (a rename, the policy, an asset correction), which post no
entry: `change` is the fifth, required so an engine cannot skip those
examples silently. This is reported to the EM as the one departure.
One money rule holds here too: an answer's figures are exact decimal
strings, never JSON numbers, so no engine can round a cent through a
float.
