swaits 10ee0681c1 feat(arap): settle documents with discounts and a fee (P4b S6)
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.

swaits 962b52c991 refactor(settings): the slice's contracts and notes (P4b S4.2)
invoicing.first_number's refusal (LedgerError::FirstNumberLocked) lands
as the contract the store's check raises once invoices carry numbers
(S4.3): a series that has begun is never renumbered (B-40, A-2).

Also: the settings invariants name the number prefix's bound, update_party's
doc says which facts wait for documents_v2, and the email check no longer
reads as a single-arm match. Terms is S4.1's as it landed; this slice no
longer carries a copy.

swaits 13282cf80e feat(arap): terms, numbers and line accounts in the core (P4b S4.1)
Documents could name only one revenue or general-expenses account per
project, had no number of their own, and took a due date the caller had
to work out. This slice gives the core the pieces the rest of S4 needs,
and journals nothing: an old-shape document still writes byte for byte,
so the owner's books need no upgrade for it.

- Payment terms (B-39): Net n, Net n EOM, due on receipt and a custom
  date, with the early-payment discount and its exact bound
  (kernel::discount_max, Kani + bridge). A due date past the calendar's
  end is refused, never a panic, and a discount is refused with terms
  that have no net days.
- Invoice numbers (B-40, A-2): first_number plus the count of numbered
  invoices, zero-padded to four digits and wider past 9,999, stored at
  issue, kept by a void; legacy invoices are uncounted.
- Line accounts (A-10): a document line may name its account, and the
  entry posts one line per (account, project) part. An invoice line takes
  revenue or a liability holding no role (deferred revenue); a bill line
  an expense or a non-cash asset holding no role. Roles, cash accounts
  and headers are refused.
- A line's amount is exactly its quantity times its unit price
  (kernel::line_amount, Kani + bridge): both or neither, never rounded.
- A vendor's invoice number names one standing bill per vendor, with
  case, spaces and hyphens ignored, unless a duplicate reason says why
  (B-40).
- The record fields S4.3 will journal: number, terms, bill-to and seller
  snapshots, customer reference, memo, the empty sends list S5 fills, and
  the bill's received_on, all optional and defaulted.

The store refuses a line carrying an account, quantity or unit price
before it rehearses or journals anything: those fields are journaled from
S4.3's documents_v2 on, and I-3 will not let a public write replay
without them. `document_line_fields_wait_for_documents_v2` proves the
refusal, the unchanged journal and allocators, and that an ordinary line
journals exactly as before. S4.3 removes this guard in the same change
that journals the fields and adds its byte-for-byte test.

The document commands keep their signatures; create_invoice_with and
create_bill_with take the optional fields for S4.3 and for tests. They
are the existing issue commands with more fields, not a new state
transition, so no Lean Step is added. Kani: line_amount_is_exact runs in
`just prove`; discount_max_is_bounded relates a product to a quotient and
runs in `prove-slow` (163 s), as the proration charge harnesses do.

just check green; just prove green.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 d7fa16e974 feat(arap)!: documents read their figures from standing lines; control accounts
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
refuse hand entries (P4b S1, part A)

Plan P4b (D-45), slice S1, the engine half: rules.md B-38.

- ledger-core: every receivables or payables line carries its document
  (Ledger.line_docs: DocRef, Movement, DocTag), written by the document
  commands in the step that posts it, derived on replay from the existing
  document events (the role's account as it stood then; payments by the
  ordinal rule), copied onto a reversal's mirror. Ledger::stands_on;
  doc_state / invoice_state / bill_state (total, paid, outstanding,
  status Open/Partial/Paid/WrittenOff/Void, overdue days) as of any day;
  ar_aging / ap_aging read them, so reversed payments and voids are right.
  The control guard (add_line, add_line_fx, post_entry,
  register_recurring) refuses untagged lines on receivables/payables,
  exempting a reversal's mirror of a legacy line; replay never refuses.
  Bounds (kernel::running_bounds, bounds_kept) on payments and reversals;
  a document reversal never dated before its entry; deposit/payer accounts
  must be cash-like and hold no role. New API: receive_payment_with /
  pay_bill_with (PaymentDetails: instrument, reference), void_document /
  check_void_document, control_check, payments_recorded,
  standing_payments, replay_reverse_entry. Invoice.amount_paid/status
  remain only as derived caches for the MCP layer until part B.
  cashflow bill_splits reads payments from the tags.
- ledger-store: journal feature document_standing (D-39 gated) for a
  payment accepted only because an earlier one was reversed;
  receive_payment_with / pay_bill_with (instrument journaled as
  entry.instrument_set, reference in the description), void_document;
  replay uses replay_reverse_entry; schema 15 drops the projection's
  amount_paid/status. Fixture p4-arap-before + golden figures written by
  the version before S1, adjudicated in arap_standing.rs.
- ledger-gui: party card, cash "coming up" and company owed totals read
  doc_state as of today (late from the derived state).
- Lean Documents.lean (control_agrees and friends); Kani
  bounds_check_matches_definition,
bounds_kept_is_the_definition_on_books_in_bounds;
  rules B-38, B-18/B-23 amended; bookspec `older = true` for legacy hand
  lines; tests that hand-post to 1200/2000 post as replay or renumbered.

Review fixes (both reviews of part A):
- control_role_of guards only an account the role is assigned to or one
  holding its documents' lines (a chart's own 1200 Equipment or card at
  2000 is free until a document posts there); payment accounts check
  other roles by holds_role (type-checked). The MCP tests that failed on
  the guard (oracle_mcp, spec_projects) pass unchanged.
- standing_payments leaves out reversals (sorted, deduped); replayed
  tags match the movement's side; payments_recorded counts every payment
  event (tagged or not, Ledger.payment_events) and refuses overflow.
- The record caches settled (paid + discounted + written off) and owed
  (Invoice/Bill.owed, never serialized): a void never reads as paid.
- assign_role: receivables/payables refuse moving onto an account with
  untagged lines (RoleAccountHasHandLines) and, on their control account
  holding a balance, say DocumentRoleHoldsBalance (no hand entry named);
  B-23 reworded. The reversal-mirror exemption only takes a hand line
  off (even chain depth); putting it back is refused.
- DocStatus Overpaid and Unattached; aging leaves out credit balances;
  ControlCheck.attention lists out-of-bounds and unattached documents.
- stands_on counts a chain in order; indexes (doc_index, doc_accounts,
  order_pos, reversed_by) keep the derived figures linear.
- Viewer reads a post-dated document as of its own date; one state per
  row. bounds_kept's side-crossing documented as intended.
- Tests: ten new spec_documents scenarios, stronger proptests, store
  proptest arap_props (live = replay = snapshot at every date, closed
  months), fuzz ops void/payments with details, a GUI post-dated test;
  Lean Step.assign / Step.release with unattached_zero kept; model
  limits stated in docs/testing.md and B-38.
Review fixes (CPA and engineering lenses): only an assigned role's
account or one holding document lines is a control account (a chart's
own 1200 asset stays free); a role can't move onto untagged lines or off
document lines (Lean Step.assign); a void's cache never reads as paid;
no Decimal sum panics; per-document indexes keep figures linear; a
replayed tag matches its side; the feature gate counts payment events;
a payment's reversal is never listed as standing; an overpaid document
has its own status; the viewer keeps post-dated documents.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 321b94562a Projects: classes as entities, and the sidebar fits short windows
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
A project is a class with facts (description, status, kind, party,
dates, links, notes) in one project.set event behind the format
feature projects. Four tools (books.add_project, update_project,
projects, project); documents and decisions link to projects; B-37:
on-spec costs are expensed as incurred, repayment is revenue, and the
unrecovered cost is never below zero (Kani). Viewer: a Projects list
and a project page with its figures, by month and by account. The
sidebar measures its footer instead of reserving a fixed 172 px.

check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
Book value is cost less what the books posted; the schedule's figure is
apart. An asset's acquired date comes from its entry. Contributed
property keeps its section 723 carryover basis apart from its depreciable
basis (the lower of value and adjusted basis), with its 704(c) built-in
gain and method. The K-1 worksheet reports tax-basis capital (Form 1065
Item L) beside the book figures, leaving open what only the CPA knows.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 b0a9fd8ad4 P3: depreciation straight-line by days through the final month, schedules by day (defects 22, 9, D-37)
The final month takes what the months before leave, spread over its days;
a disposed asset stops on its disposal day. A skipped month is caught up
in the month the run is made; a reversed run un-posts its month. New
schedules spread by day; equal-months schedules must start on the 1st.
Amounts round to the currency's own minor unit. Kani and Lean proofs; an
exhaustive search over runs, reversals and disposals.

check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
A vendor's 1099 decision is its own dated fact (files NEC or MISC, not
reportable with its reason, or undetermined), applied by each payment's
date. Payment methods are recorded; card and network payments are left
out and listed; a member's check through financing counts; a bank payment
with no method counts (D-40); $2,000 for payments after 2025. One
worksheet for the tool, the viewer and the CPA package.

check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
Direct method with the operating reconciliation and noncash schedules; it
foots by construction (Lean and Kani). Every non-cash account belongs to
one section; reversals net; a member or lender paying for the company is
cash borrowed and spent (D-42, constructive receipt and disbursement);
property a member contributes stays noncash. The bookspec seed: one loader
checks every example.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 c587593d78 P1: the books keep how they are kept
Settings, conventions (posting templates, approval rules, policies,
close steps, calendar, mappings, notes), decisions, open items and
entry approvals are journal events (journal format 2). Books that keep
their settings never read wanderbooks.toml or config.json; the server
and the viewer take the vault key from --vault-key-file instead.
books.import_settings moves a settings file in once, exactly as the
server reads it. Approval rules, when enforced, gate every posting
path. Replay refuses what it can't read as newer, never as corrupt.

Lean: a record changes no figure. Mutation on the whole diff: every
survivor killed by a test but two equivalent (docs/testing.md). The
Company page says a late open item is overdue in words, not colour
alone.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 8693d5a3f5 MCP: short connect text, a handbook, tool annotations, safe local imports
- The 13K-character instructions (clients cut them short) become a
  connect text of at most 1,400 characters whose first 512 stand alone,
  plus books.handbook and books://handbook/{section}: the old guidance by
  section, with no helper commands, home paths, pull requests or
  file-reading suggestions (tool_text_lint).
- Every tool has a title and read-only/destructive hints; no
  requiresUserInteraction anywhere (owner decision 2026-10-16).
- books.import_local_file reads only regular files inside the import
  roots (the downloads folder by default, or --import-root), never the
  data dir, books dir, vault or the key's folder, no symlink escapes or
  hard links, and the file opened must be the file checked.
- The store lock is a tokio mutex taken off the runtime threads.
- get_info refreshes settings first; a bare books://digest reads.

Review fixes (P0 review, 2026-10-16):
- Fail closed: a tokio mutex never poisons and spawn_blocking caught the
  panic, so after a panic mid-mutation the server kept serving a Store
  behind its journal. A panic (the task, or while holding the store)
  now stops the shared store; every later request on every session is
  refused with a plain message; a restart re-verifies the journal. The
  join error goes through redact_refusal and never carries the panic's
  text.
- books.set_w9 w9_file_path read any path (a link named w9.pdf to the
  vault key was stored and get_w9 wrote it out): it now goes through the
  import roots' lockdown, its type judged on the canonical path.
- Sealed even inside a root: the key file in force, where a linked one
  leads, both folders, and the default key folder whatever the settings
  say. Refusals check the roots first, so outside them every path gets
  one message (no probing what exists); inside, other books-dir files say
  to copy them out first.
- The open is O_NOFOLLOW | O_NONBLOCK (a pipe swapped in after the check
  can't hang a thread) and must match the checked file's device and
  inode. New dependency: libc (unix only), for those two open flags,
  which std doesn't name.
- Default import roots are the downloads folder only (the plan); files
  with full TINs (get_w9, vendor_1099 include_tins, the CPA package with
  TINs) are never written into an import root, and the server refuses to
  import any file it wrote with TINs (by SHA-256).
- set_tin and set_w9 overwrite vault records: destructive_hint = true;
  annotations_complete pins the key tools' hints. The read-only hint is
  checked in behaviour on every spec_mcp call (journal and data-dir files
  unchanged).
- Text: the connect text names the settings file as the one local file
  to edit, says every entry balances on real accounts and names its
  party, says invoice/bill/payment/payroll tools post unchecked, rewords
  the exemptions, and shows the company name as one plain line; the
  handbook takes section "all", lists its ids in the schema and says to
  read contract first; books.settings drops the config.json path and no
  error names the data dir or the key file. tool_text_lint covers the
  whole tool JSON and resources and bans git/commit/FL-0001; tool
  descriptions over 700 characters are pinned to today's eight (P5).
- digest: an empty since= is bare; the default date is pinned on every
  day of a month.

Round-2 review fixes (2026-10-16):
- TIN files (B-26): the in-memory, per-session set of TIN-file hashes
  became one registry beside the vault (vault/tin-files.sha256, hashes
  only), shared by every session and every later server. It holds the
  W-9 set_w9 reads (recorded as read), get_w9 copies, 1099 worksheets
  with TINs, CPA packages with TINs and each file in one that holds a
  TIN; a file is recorded before it is written, and a failure refuses.
  import_local_file, attach_receipt and file_document (base64 was never
  checked) refuse a recorded file, and a text file (by type, name, or
  UTF-8/UTF-16 decoding) holding a full TIN. Not caught: an altered
  binary copy; the docs say so (P2/P7 remove the path tools).
- The text check is narrow (owner/engineer decision, 2026-10-16: bank
  exports are filed for reconciliation, and has_full_tin's "nine digits
  however separated" refused their routing numbers, long references and
  dates run into amounts). Text is refused when it holds (a) a TIN the
  vault holds for a party, anywhere, as nine digits, 3-2-4 joined by
  hyphens, spaces or dots, or 2-7 joined by a hyphen or space, compared
  on the server against the decrypted vault and never returned or
  logged (a vault that can't be opened leaves (b)); or (b) a stand-alone
  printed SSN (123-45-6789) or EIN (12-3456789) shape: no digit, and no
  hyphen or dot followed by a digit, beside it. Full-width digits and
  Unicode hyphens and spaces read as ASCII. has_full_tin still guards
  refusals and results (redact_refusal). Known limit, for P7: a refusal
  under (a) tells the agent a text it chose holds a vault TIN.
  New dependency: zeroize in ledger-mcp (already in the workspace
  through ledger-vault, same major version), so the vault's TINs decoded
  for the scan are wiped from memory on drop as the vault's own are.
- Mutation testing of the final P0 diff (docs/testing.md): tests for
  each law a survivor broke (handbook titles, a dropped default root, a
  .jpg W-9, the waker, the walk's folder flags against a link and a
  pipe, the 40-link limit, save paths refused as such, the package
  marking only its TIN files, a registry that can't be read, text types,
  the short receipt rule's counts and a 12-character code). Simpler
  code where only a race could tell: inspect places an existing path by
  canonicalize itself (no second comparison), read_checked's read limit
  is its one size check, openat fails on -1 as specified. The 25 MiB
  upload test removes its 50 MB of books however it ends.
- The GUI's stale-rule prompt no longer says to open a pull request: it
  asks the agent to find the figure from the rule's official authority,
  confirm it with the human, pass it explicitly, and tell the human so it
  can be reported upstream (as the handbook says); a lib test pins it and
  bans files, git, GitHub and pull requests from every attention prompt.
- Import roots (local_files.rs INVARIANT 0): XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/"
  made $HOME (or /) the root. No root may be /, the home folder or hold
  it, or hold the books, data dir, vault or a key: a named one stops the
  server at startup, a default one is dropped; the default falls back to
  ~/Downloads only if that is a real folder other than $HOME; with no
  root, an import says so.
- The read is a component walk from / with openat(O_NOFOLLOW |
  O_DIRECTORY) per folder and O_NOFOLLOW | O_NONBLOCK for the file, so a
  folder swapped for a link after the check fails; no step may land on a
  protected inode (one renamed into a root); dev/ino and nlink stay. No
  /proc. Portable to macOS. (libc's openat, two small unsafe blocks.)
- One refusal for missing, dangling and outside paths: resolved()
  follows every link, dangling ones too, so a link's target existing or
  not no longer changes the answer.
- Sealing: the key files (in force, default) and their targets always;
  their folders only when not $HOME, not a root, not holding a root; and
  ~/.config/wanderbooks whatever XDG_CONFIG_HOME says.
- Agent text (I-12): RuleNotKnown names the authority (IRS, with its
  address) and says to tell the human, never a repo path, PR or GitHub;
  the digest's stale_rules drop the repo catalog and path for it; vault,
  outside-books, STOPPED and local-file refusals name no git, path or
  flag. tool_text_lint bans docs/, .md, /home, data dir, --data-dir,
  --import-root, vault.key, .jsonl, sqlite, .gitignore, github, pull
  request, and also lints every error template (scanned from source),
  built error texts, and the server's refusal constants.
- The receipt rule told (ReceiptPolicy::rule) is the one enforced: the
  exact threshold in the base currency (no "$", no rounding), required
  and exempt accounts, reversals exempt; the connect text fits 1,400
  characters by dropping reasons, then codes, never the rule.
- The connect text follows the parties setting; "offer books.digest"
  everywhere. shown_name drops Unicode format characters (bidi, zero
  width).
- read_only_tools_change_nothing compares file contents, the database
  by every row, the vault and the settings file (raw database bytes did
  not change either; rows are the stable comparison).
- import_local_file takes the name and type from the canonical path;
  the digest's journal repair says when the tail was set aside, not the
  journal's file name; "version-history messages" back in the TIN rule;
  openWorldHint false on every tool, pinned in annotations_complete.
- Outside the MCP crate, for the same texts: ledger-core's DatedRule
  gains `authority` (the statute or publication with its address) and
  RuleNotKnown carries it; ledger-store's "sqlite error" reads "database
  error"; ledger-config's ReceiptPolicy::rule takes the base currency.
  New dev-dependency: rusqlite in ledger-mcp (already in the workspace,
  same version and features as ledger-store), to read the database's
  rows in read_only_tools_change_nothing.
- The filing scan is no TIN oracle (tin_files.rs INVARIANT 4): text
  holding more than two TIN-shaped numbers (any rendering rule (a)
  reads) that end in a known TIN's last four (the books' TIN and W-9
  facts, via known_tin_last4, before the vault is opened; then the
  vault's own) is refused with TIN_PROBE, the same words whether or not
  one is the vault's TIN; only one or two candidates are compared
  against the vault. Tests: unit
  text_probing_for_a_tin_is_refused_alike_whether_or_not_it_holds_it,
  one_or_two_candidates_are_compared_against_the_vault; over HTTP
  text_probing_for_a_tin_is_refused_alike_by_every_filing_tool.

Plan: plan/served.md P0, section 6 "Immediate hole (P0)", 4.1, 4.3, 4.9.

Review round 3. S1: a panic stops the server for every session, so no
input may reach one. Dates are four-digit years (new ledger_core::
calendar, 0001-01-01..9999-12-31): the MCP's parse_date is strict
YYYY-MM-DD, periods are bounded, last_day_of_month returns a refusal
(server and store); schedules, assets, recurring entries, periods,
documents, disposals and entries refuse dates outside the calendar, and
replay refuses such journal dates. Every amount a command takes is at
most a line's (draft lines by size, document lines, payouts, payroll,
statements, shares, tax basis, proceeds, recurring templates), on
replay too, so sums are exact; the 1099 vendor part and the K-1
property share use checked products (TooLargeToCompute); a recurring
run makes at most 1,000 drafts. tests/hostile_args.rs drives every tool
with schema-derived hostile arguments and every resource with generated
URIs, asserting the server never stops; the audit's panics are pinned.
S2: a `.` or `..` path name is refused as NO_SUCH_FILE up front. S3:
NUL-interleaved UTF-16 without a byte-order mark is scanned both ways.
S4: resource-read refusals are TIN-redacted. S5: set_w9 records its W-9
only once the call passes every check, just before the vault write.
S8: idempotentHint only on verify, run_depreciation, run_schedules,
run_recurring, set_party_roles (a repeat leaves journal and vault
alone; spec_vault checks every candidate twice); every tool's hints
pinned in one table. C1: books.settings lists receipt_required_accounts
and receipt_exempt_accounts uncut. C2: the default company name reads
"a new company". C3: the parties rule names no-party reasons. C4/C5:
the handbook names the settings file only as books.settings' books_toml,
and restores "check books.digest and offer it". C6: an import root
inside the books, data dir or vault is refused at startup. The lint
catches `just` however it ends and where the books are;
digest_resource_bare_reads reads the server's month.

Review round 4 (2026-10-17): round 3's bounds ran in replay too, so
journals main wrote and reopened (an entry dated 0000-06-01 or
+10000-01-01, a draft line of 2e15, an asset ending past 9999, a basis
or share past the line limit, sub-cent document and payroll lines) no
longer opened. Posted is forever: the bounds are the commands' only.
- Replay applies main's rule exactly: parse_date takes any date chrono
  reads; replay_add_line(_fx) has no size bound (add_line/add_line_fx
  do); replay_register_asset/correct_asset (chrono overflow only),
  replay_set_asset_tax_basis (check_journaled), replay_set_entry_parties
  (check_shares_journaled), replay_register_recurring
  (validate_recurring_journaled), replay_register_schedule (months 1 to
  600), replay_create_period (order only), replay_dispose_asset, and no
  line, date, payment or payroll range checks in replay_invoice/bill,
  their payments and replay_payroll_run.
- Derived figures over such books refuse (TooLargeToCompute,
  DateOutOfRange), never panic: amortization plans, depreciation into
  chrono's last month (and the true-up for lives past 9999), intervals,
  document totals and aging, net pay and payroll plans, money flows and
  share resolution, the asset register, receipt-policy debits; the MCP
  tools and the viewer show what can't be computed.
- tests/fixtures/old-books: the review's 13 journals, its control and 15
  more edges, written by main's Store API with main's figures
  (expected.json); every one opens in the writer and the viewer to those
  figures, every derived figure computes or refuses, every MCP tool and
  GUI page answers; hostile_args restarts the server after each
  property; each bound has a command/replay test pair.

Final review: a schedule's plan refuses a total of 10^26 or more
(TooLargeToCompute) instead of letting Decimal round its cents silently,
and a null `remaining` in the schedule output is always explained by
plan_error. Replay is unaffected: no journaled schedule month can belong
to a total that large (the line limit bounds every posted month).

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 d99589e6c1 import: grounded in Intuit's specs; atomic chart and bank imports
New vendored sources (docs/spec/sources/): Intuit's bank CSV upload and
IIF formats, ECMA-376 / Excel number storage, and the IRS form lines the
tax categories map to.

IIF export (rewritten to Intuit's IIF Import Kit):
- declares every account first (!ACCNT NAME, ACCNTTYPE, ACCNUM): an
  undeclared account is created in QuickBooks "as a new bank account";
  the MCP export types them (cash accounts BANK, the control accounts AR
  and AP, registered fixed assets FIXASSET, the rest by type);
- subaccounts by colon path, parents first; colons in a name replaced;
- ASCII only (IIF is ASCII text), dashes and quotes transliterated;
- the kit's 2007+ journal layout and M/D/YYYY dates; an entry using an
  undeclared account is refused.

Bank CSV:
- the 4-column layout is money out then money in by position, which
  matches Intuit's "Credit, Debit" and banks' "Debit, Credit" both (the
  doc's "Expense, Income" labels were wrong, the parsing was not);
- a slash date's order comes from the file (a part over 12 settles it)
  or the caller's new date_order, never a guess: Intuit recommends
  dd/mm/yyyy, US banks write mm/dd/yyyy;
- fractions of a cent and double negatives ("(-5)") are refused; the
  header is recognized on the first non-blank row.

Chart CSV: a blank code or name is refused with its row (found by the
new fuzz_import_csv target), and the core now refuses a blank account
code or name too (replay keeps older books).

MCP:
- books.import_chart_csv and books.import_bank_csv rehearse the whole
  file on a copy of the ledger first: a bad row anywhere refuses the
  file (before, a duplicate within the file, a parent after its child,
  or a date in a closed period left earlier rows behind);
- bank rules: the longest matching pattern wins (they arrive in a map,
  so "first match" changed from run to run).

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 e2c421be35 core: no entry posts a fraction of a cent; verify compares whole ledgers
CI's run of the store refusal property found a payroll run that posted
$65.27794: the employer tax was passed in unrounded and nothing refused
it, though rules.md B-3 already says a ledger in one money holds no
fractions of its smallest unit. Sums of it then differed in scale
between journal replay and the SQLite read-back.

- Ledger::post_entry refuses any line finer than its currency's ISO 4217
  minor unit (FinerThanMinorUnit), whatever made the line: payroll,
  closes, disposals. add_line refuses it up front. Older journals replay
  as booked through replay_post_entry. Spec tests for the kernel's
  ten-place limit now run on the replay path.
- The property's body is now run_ops, so failing sequences become named
  regression tests (regression_payroll_with_a_fraction_of_a_cent). The
  generator rounds payroll tax to the cent, as callers must.
- Ledger derives PartialEq and gains differs_from; Store::verify compares
  the live ledger with the journal replay in full (drafts, documents,
  schedules, periods, settings), not just balances, and names the parts
  that differ. The property checks the ledger its commands built against
  that replay and against the reopened books.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 f9bd507765 fix(core): payments never predate their documents; aging as of a date; refusals leave no draft
Three spec decisions from the owner (2026-10-13), raised by the spec-blind
test writers, each test-first:

- A payment dated before its invoice or bill is refused
  (PaymentBeforeDocument); a real prepayment is a deposit. Test:
  a_payment_never_predates_its_document. Replay is unaffected (it goes
  through replay_invoice_payment / replay_bill_payment).
- Aging as of a date shows only documents issued by then, less only the
  payments made by then. The ledger now records each document's payment
  entries (live and on replay), and aging counts those dated by as_of.
  Test: aging_as_of_a_date_sees_only_what_existed_then; the A/R and A/P
  conservation properties' aging oracles updated to the confirmed rule
  (they had assumed aging ignored dates).
- A schedule through a mid-month date prorates that month by days; the
  code was right and its doc wrong. The spec-blind test that disagreed is
  rewritten to the confirmed spec and no longer ignored.

Also found while wiring payments: a payment to an unknown cash account
created the payment's draft and then failed, leaving it behind; the cash
account is now checked before anything is created.

The unreviewed golden van_schedule.json is gone: every row was first
checked against an independent hand computation (all 61 matched), then
replaced by van_schedule_is_the_hand_computed_one, which asserts that
computation directly (548.39, 59 x 1,000.00, 451.61; total 60,000.00).

Tests: 452. No spec-disagreements left ignored.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 bac81593e9 test(core): spec-blind suites and a live GnuCash oracle; four fixes they found
Max-testing pass, steps 2-4.

Spec-blind tests (rank 1-2): four agents, each given only the specs and
the public interface (doc comments and signatures, every body removed,
never src/ or the existing tests), wrote tests/spec_reports.rs (62),
spec_ledger.rs (72), spec_arap.rs (42), spec_assets_payroll.rs (50):
hand-computed examples per scenario and a proptest law per invariant
(conservation, partition, invariance, scaling, reversal cancels,
"a refusal leaves the books unchanged" over random invalid commands).
They found:

1. A refused payroll run changed the books: an all-zero run passed
   validation, then failed at post after creating seven payroll
   accounts and using up an entry id. validate_payroll_lines now
   refuses a run with no gross pay.
2. A refused add_account used up an account id (empty code, duplicate,
   unknown parent). The id is now taken only when the account is added.
3. Stale prose: close_period_to and members_equity still described the
   old last-member rounding.
4. Open (left #[ignore]d pending the owner): depreciation_schedule's doc
   says "through the month containing" the date; the code prorates that
   month by days.

GnuCash oracle (rank 3, an oracle never the spec): `just oracle` builds
GnuCash 5.10 in a container pinned by base digest and package versions
(oracle/gnucash/) and runs tests/oracle_gnucash.rs: 200 seeded random
books built through wanderbooks (entries, foreign lines, reversals,
monthly closes), every account's balance at month ends and random dates
and each month's P&L, compared exactly: 15,800 comparisons. First run:
4,724 differences, all from foreign lines; without them, zero.
Adjudicated from principles (rules.md B-3): wanderbooks booked
foreign * rate unrounded ($108.34567); a ledger in one money holds no
fractions of its smallest unit, and its cash must match a bank. The owner
decided: book in the base currency's minor unit, half away from zero.
add_line_fx now rounds; minor units per ISO 4217 list one (2026-09-17,
SIX), generated into Currency::minor_units and recorded in
docs/spec/sources/iso-4217.md. Replay now takes the journaled base
amount (replay_add_line_fx), so lines booked before replay exactly as
booked (contract: books_written_under_older_rules_still_open). Now:
zero differences, foreign lines included.

Tests: 449, from 223.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 4647611f96 fix(core,store): child accounts share their parent's type; periods nest; lines checked when added
Three spec decisions from the owner (2026-10-13), each test-first:

- A child account has its parent's type (ParentTypeMismatch): a child
  subdivides its parent. Test: a_child_account_has_its_parents_type.
- Periods nest (a month in a quarter in a year) but never partially
  overlap (PeriodsOverlap; a refusal uses no id). Test:
  periods_nest_but_never_partially_overlap.
- A line's account must exist and take postings when the line is added,
  not only at post (UnknownAccount / PlaceholderAccount from add_line
  and add_line_fx); posting still re-checks. Two older tests that pinned
  the post-time refusal now check both (the post-time check is reached
  through the unchecked replay path, as old journals can).

Compatibility: replay reads history through new Ledger::replay_*
commands (add_account, add_line, add_line_fx, create_period) that skip
checks added later, so books written before these rules still open.
The contract test books_written_under_older_rules_still_open writes such
a journal directly and found, on its first run, that the SQLite
cross-check rebuild used the checked commands and would have failed
verification ("sqlite projection can't be read back"); it now replays
too. Documented in docs/spec/README.md; decisions recorded in rules.md
(B-1, B-4, B-12).

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 4eaac20311 feat(core,mcp,gui): never apply a legal rule past what wanderbooks knows
The owner (2026-10-13): when what wanderbooks knows is stale, check the
date, research it or ask the owner or CPA, and update the rule for
everyone with a pull request (best) or an issue (worst).

- ledger_core::rules: a registry of rules set by law that change over
  time. Each says the years it's known for, its rules.md entry, its
  vendored official source, and a review date. stale_rules(today) is
  pure; the engine has no clock.
- The 1099 threshold is the first: $600 through 2025, $2,000 in 2026,
  then indexed for inflation (26 U.S.C. §6041(h)). default_threshold
  and vendor_1099_report now return Result; for 2027+ they refuse with
  LedgerError::RuleNotKnown, whose message says what to do: get the
  figure from the official source or the owner/CPA, pass it explicitly,
  then open a PR (or issue) at github.com/swaits/wanderbooks. Before,
  2027+ silently used $2,000.
- MCP: books.vendor_1099 relays that refusal; books.digest gains
  stale_rules; the server instructions tell the agent the procedure (and
  how to handle control-account conflicts: explain, never renumber).
  The CPA package writes a NOT-INCLUDED note instead of a guessed 1099
  worksheet.
- Viewer: "Needs attention" shows each stale rule with a ready prompt
  for the agent; the 1099 page explains instead of guessing.

Review date for the 1099 rule: 2026-11-01, when the IRS usually
publishes next year's inflation adjustments (CONVENTION, marked as such
in the registry).

Tests: an_unknown_year_threshold_is_never_guessed,
dated_rules_go_stale_on_their_review_date (dates passed in, so no clock
in the test), MCP stdio: 2027 refused with guidance, explicit threshold
accepted, digest carries stale_rules (asserted date-independently).

2026-10-13 14:07:22 -06:00
swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 8559bba6bc fix(core,store): refuse control accounts of the wrong type, with a reason
Invoices, bills, payments, payroll, and closes post to accounts the
engine finds by code (1200, 2000, 4000, 6999, 3999, 6100-2150). If an
account with that code existed it was used whatever its type: a 1200
"Customer Deposits" liability would have taken receivables. Now
(the owner, 2026-10-13: never force an imported chart into our numbering)
the engine refuses with ControlAccountMismatch, naming the code, the
account, its type, the role, and the type needed, so the agent can work
it out with the human. A placeholder is refused too.

Every command checks all its control accounts before changing anything
(Ledger::check_controls, spec + SOURCE in its doc comment), so a refusal
never leaves a half-made account behind. One table of control accounts
(ledger_core::RECEIVABLES ... PAYROLL) replaces the codes duplicated
across the engine and the store.

Tests (spec-derived, all assert the books are untouched after the
refusal): an_invoice_refuses_a_1200_that_is_not_receivables,
an_invoice_refuses_a_placeholder_1200,
an_invoice_creates_nothing_when_its_second_account_is_wrong,
a_bill_refuses_a_2000_that_is_not_payables,
a_close_refuses_a_3999_that_is_not_equity.

2026-10-13 12:29:24 -06:00
swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 847dd4388d fix(store,core): a refused command never reaches the journal; reversal rules
Max-testing pass, step 2 (rank 1 regressions + a rank 2 law). Two ways
to make the books unopenable, both found by test, both fixed:

1. Reversing into a closed period: the store journaled `entry.reversed`,
   then the engine refused it at post. Replay could never apply that
   line, so Store::open failed ("period 1 is closed"). Regression:
   reversal_into_a_closed_period_is_refused_before_journaling.
2. An oversized invoice (or any command whose hand-written store
   pre-checks lagged the engine, here the new line range) journaled,
   then failed in the engine. Found by the new property
   refused_commands_never_reach_the_journal within 4s.

The fix is structural, not another hand-written check: every
journal-first store command now rehearses on a scratch clone of the
ledger (`Store::rehearse`), so whatever the engine refuses is refused
before the journal, now and after any future engine change. The
create_entry rehearsal uses the checked constructor: no draft is ever
dated in a closed period (the Lean invariant Inv.draftsOpen, which the
store had bypassed).

The property (1,000 random command sequences, heavy on refusals)
asserts, after every command: a refusal leaves the journal
byte-identical; every posted entry validates; the trial balance
balances; no draft sits in a closed period; and the books reopen and
verify at the end. Shown to have teeth: removing the create_entry
rehearsal makes it fail and shrink to open-period, close, draft.

Engine (spec confirmed by the owner, 2026-10-13), Ledger::check_reversal,
a pure pre-check that reverse_entry and the store share:
- an entry is reversed at most once (EntryAlreadyReversed); reversing
  the reversal re-instates it;
- a closing entry is never reversed (ClosingEntryIrreversible);
- a refused reversal leaves no trace (it used to leave a draft and
  burn an id).

Specs go in doc comments as a ```text GOAL/INVARIANTS/SCENARIOS block.
New dev dependency: proptest for ledger-store (already the workspace's
property library).

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 2d36fb05a4 feat(core): prove the accounting laws (Kani + Lean); fix three engine gaps
The money arithmetic every invariant rests on now lives in one kernel,
ledger-core/src/kernel.rs: signing a line, totals, net, per-account
movements, reversal, normal balances, trial-balance columns, closing
lines, and the rounding plug for member splits. It is generic over a
checked `Amount` trait. The engine runs it on Decimal (validate,
movements, reverse_entry, account_balance, close_period_to, allocate,
trial_balance): there is one copy of the arithmetic, and it is the one
under proof.

Three layers, docs/verification.md maps every law to its proofs:

- Kani (src/proofs.rs): 17 harnesses prove the kernel at i64 for every
  input up to 4 lines over 3 accounts. An entry is accepted exactly
  when it is two or more positive, in-range lines whose debits equal
  credits; accepted entries net to zero; grouping by account loses
  nothing; a reversal mirrors and cancels its original; trial-balance
  columns balance iff the books net to zero; closing lines zero their
  accounts and a close balances however the net is split; the plug
  makes parts sum to the whole. No panics, no overflow. kani::cover!
  shows the proofs are not vacuous.
- Lean 4 (verify/lean): 24 headline theorems for books of any size. The
  ledger is a state machine (add account, draft, post, reverse, open,
  close), and in every reachable state the books net to zero, the trial
  balance balances (as of any date), and the accounting equation holds.
  Posting only appends ("posted is forever"), closed periods are
  frozen, a close zeroes revenue and expenses and credits exactly the net
  income, and period statements add up. Audit.lean shows standard axioms
  only, no sorry.
- Bridge (tests/kernel_bridge.rs): the Decimal and i64 kernels agree.

What the proofs found (each one missed by every test, fuzzer, and
mutant):

- The engine accepted negative line amounts; only MCP refused them. Now
  NegativeAmountLine: direction is the side's job.
- Summing lines near Decimal::MAX panicked. Lines are now capped at one
  quadrillion and ten decimal places (AmountOutOfRange), which keeps
  every realistic sum exact, and the kernel's sums are checked.
- FX conversion (foreign_amount * fx_rate) could panic the same way; it
  is now a checked multiply.
- Kani itself: 0.68 mis-models symbolic-length copy_from_slice
  (model-checking/kani#4904) and reported a reversal that doesn't net to
  zero. The counterexample, replayed natively, passes, and a 15-line
  standalone crate reproduces the bug. Harnesses avoid bulk copies, and
  a should_panic canary will flag the upstream fix.

`just prove` runs it all (Kani memory- and time-capped, fails on an
unsatisfiable cover or a non-standard Lean axiom). AGENTS.md now makes
formal coverage part of every core change.

Also, docs: GnuCash is *an* oracle, never *the* oracle (the owner). The
spec is accounting principles, proved. Golden files are recomputed from
principles. External implementations (GnuCash, the old Sheet, QBO/Xero)
are cross-checks whose disagreements get adjudicated, never obeyed.
docs/oracle.md gains "Who is right"; AGENTS, README, architecture,
roadmap, parity, and STATUS are reworded to match.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 d519f8a0d8 feat: payout gross-up (books.record_payout)
A platform deposit becomes a draft entry with the deposit, fees,
adjustments, and gross revenue (by class), refused unless gross - fees
+/- adjustments equals the deposit to the cent. The payout statement is
attached as its receipt before posting. 60 tools.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 75623afd46 feat: prepaid/deferred amortization schedules and recurring entries
Amortization schedules spread a prepaid expense or deferred revenue over
the months it covers, to the cent, posting on month ends; runs preview
first, are idempotent, honor closed periods, and are exempt from the
receipt policy like depreciation. Recurring entries generate drafts only,
never posts. Six new tools (59 total); four new journal events, replayed
and checked.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 e6c49d6650 feat: tax categories and the tax summary report
wanderbooks is a general MCP-first accounting application: every
business needs its accounts mapped to where they land on its income tax
return, and its CPA needs book-to-tax differences surfaced, not hidden.

- ledger_core::tax: a catalog of stable categories (gross_receipts,
  commissions_fees, meals, guaranteed_payments, officer_compensation,
  nondeductible, ...) with kind (income, cost of goods, deduction), the
  returns each appears on (Schedule C, 1065, 1120-S, 1120), a default
  deductible percent (meals 50, nondeductible 0), and guidance. Keys,
  not line numbers: form lines move from year to year.
- Accounts carry tax_category and an optional deductible_percent
  override, validated against the account type (and the return, at the
  MCP layer), journaled as account.tax_set, replayed, projected (schema
  v6).
- tax_summary(start, end, form): the P&L grouped by category, book and
  deductible amounts (half away from zero to the cent), contra income
  (refunds) reducing receipts, and every account still uncategorized.
- MCP: books.tax_categories (filtered to the configured return),
  books.set_tax_category, a tax_summary report in every format and in
  the CPA package, chart output with categories, and a fifth
  tax_category column in chart CSV imports, validated before anything is
  created. [company] tax_form, or derived from tax_classification.

Scope stays book basis: no tax depreciation, basis, or filing.

Tests: a hand-computed quarter (50% meals 333.33 -> 166.67, penalties at
0%, refunds as negative receipts, guaranteed payments, one uncategorized
account; book net 5,276.67 vs tax 5,483.33); overrides; category/account
/return validation; form parsing and derivation; CSV parsing; stdio:
filtered catalog, mapping, refusal, summary, all-or-nothing import.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 754060ccf0 fix: period close sweeps only through the period end; partnerships close into members' capital
The close zeroed every revenue and expense account's all-time movement,
so closing a period after later entries were posted swept those too:
close January in March and February's and March's income landed in
January's closing entry. The preview had the same bug and never showed
where the net went. Now:

- close_period_to(id, to) zeroes balances as of the period end; entries
  dated later stay open for their own period. Periods must close in
  order (LedgerError::CloseOutOfOrder): a later close has already swept
  the earlier period.
- CloseTo::Members: for a partnership (multi-member LLC) the net goes to
  each member's capital account by share, to the cent, the last member
  absorbing rounding, which is what K-1 capital accounts track.
  CloseTo::RetainedEarnings (3999) stays the default; close_period is
  shorthand for it. books.close_period picks Members when
  wanderbooks.toml lists members.
- The journal records the close target; replay re-derives the closing
  entry and now compares every line with the journal, not just the id,
  so a change to closing math can never silently rewrite history.
- The tool's preview is the real close run on a clone of the ledger
  (Ledger now derives Clone), so preview and post can't disagree.
- Members' equity: closing entries into a capital account are income,
  not contributions. Balance sheet for a partnership: capital accounts
  (with allocated earnings), then only unallocated earnings —
  "Undistributed earnings, prior years" if any, and this year's unclosed
  net income (loss). periods::allocate is shared by the close and the
  statement.

Tests: January closed after February is posted sweeps exactly Dr 4000
2,500 / Cr 6100 800 / Cr 3999 1,700 (mutation-checked: the old code gives
3,500/120/800/2,580); out-of-order close refused; a partnership close
splits 666.67 into 333.34/333.33 with no 3999, and the members' equity
statement reads correctly before and after; store replay of a members
close (reopen, rebuild, verify); partnership and corporate balance sheet
layouts; stdio close preview equals the posted lines.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 353bef1d5d feat: general ledger by account, trial balance as of, members' equity
Three reports a CPA expects that the engine could not produce:

- general_ledger(start, end): the canonical general ledger, organized by
  account in code order. Each account has its beginning balance, every
  posting in the period (date, entry, description, debit, credit, running
  balance on the normal side) and its ending balance, which ties to the
  trial balance. Each posting names its split: the one account on the
  opposite side of its entry, or "-Split-" when that side has several,
  so a compound entry (one debit, several credits) reads correctly from
  every account it touches. The entry-ordered listing the exports called a
  "general ledger" is really the general journal.
- trial_balance_as_of(as_of): a trial balance is always as of a date.
- members_equity(start, end, members): the statement of changes in
  members' equity for a multi-member LLC taxed as a partnership. Each
  member's capital roll-forward: beginning (capital plus their share of
  undistributed earnings), contributions, allocated net income (loss),
  distributions, ending. Allocation is by ownership share to the cent,
  the last member absorbing rounding, so totals are exact and the ending
  total equals balance-sheet equity; any equity change the roll-forward
  can't explain shows as "other" instead of disappearing. Shares must be
  positive and sum to exactly 1; capital accounts must be distinct
  equity accounts (LedgerError::InvalidMembers).
- CashFlowLine.account: the account a line is about, so renderers can
  name members instead of account codes.

Tests (every expectation computed by hand): trial balance as of Jan 31;
February general ledger with beginning balances, running balances, a
card that nets to zero, an inactive account still listed, and every
ending balance tied to the trial balance; a compound entry's splits from
all three sides; a two-member partnership where 666.67 and 100.01 split
unevenly (333.34/333.33, 50.01/50.00), with and without closing January,
tying to the balance sheet each month; bad member configuration.
