swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 45bcce679b feat(audit): books.audit, the attestation tools and the CPA gate (P8)
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.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 4236f03744 feat(store): a record's source can be corrected without touching its words (P5)
Accounting reason: a convention, a decision or an open item carries who
decided it, when and on what authority. When that is recorded wrongly the
honest fix is to say so on the record, not to restate the policy: a policy
revision bumps the convention's revision and reads as a change of the rule,
and a new decision supersedes the old one. A source correction changes only
the authority and says why, so the audit trail shows the words were never
altered.

New event types convention.source_revised, decision.source_revised and
open_item.source_revised {id, source, reason} under the journal feature
source_revisions: an older version would refuse the types, or show the old
source as the record's authority, so it stops at the declaration instead
(rules.md B-27) and books that have not had the owner's upgrade refuse the
write with format_upgrade_pending, journaling nothing. Replay sets the
source and nothing else (the text, the revision and the journal line stay);
the projection updates the rows' existing source columns, so no schema
changed. A correction must be one: other words, the same source, no reason
or an unknown record is refused.

books.set_convention takes reason (the text exactly as it stands),
books.record_decision and books.raise_item take revises with reason. Without
reason the old refusal stands and now says how to correct only the source.

8.0.6: the hand-written lines of the three shapes in
books_written_under_older_rules_still_open; fixture old-books/p5_before,
written by b97234ac (a revised convention, two decisions, two open items, a
draft) through old-books-writer/src/bin/p5_before.rs, opens to that
version's figures, so no figure moved; books_p2_served_cut_over_whole
refuses the correction before consent and takes it after; the fuzzer and the
viewer's journal know the types. The live books refuse the new write until
the owner gives the go-ahead; merging does not need it.

Tests: a_source_only_revision_is_journaled,
a_source_revision_must_change_only_the_source,
source_revisions_wait_for_the_upgrade, source_revisions_is_its_own_feature.

uses `SOCK_CLOEXEC` and Linux's answer for a peerless socket; it is
gated to Linux, which is what it tests.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 6a66a2855b feat(drafts): the drafts tools, the preview digest on every confirm, the digest tool (P4)
Accounting reason: a confirm must act on the thing that was previewed.
Every tool with confirmed (post_entry, reverse_entry, run_schedules,
dispose_asset, reconcile, close_period, create_invoice, create_bill,
write_off_invoice, purge_tin, consolidate_duplicates, and the S6
settlement tools receive_payment and pay_bill, which gain confirmed and
preview on a clone of the ledger) returns preview (SHA-256 of the
canonical preview) and refuses a confirm whose preview is missing or
stale (stale_preview, before anything is written). A draft's digest is
its own state and the settings seq; an operation's is the tool, its
arguments as sent, the settings seq and the journal head seq, so another
session's write forces a re-preview (D-50).

New tools books.list_drafts, books.set_draft_state, books.discard_draft,
books.preview_entry; reports carry as_of_status (drafts open on or before
their end, unreconciled accounts, settings problems) and take strict; the
CPA package is refused while a draft dated in it is open unless
allow_open_drafts gives a reason, journaled as a decision;
books.digest takes since_seq (what was posted since a journal line,
backdated entries included: defect 6) and lists zero_net_accounts,
drafts_by_state and the reconciliation split. Needs attention gains
'draft awaiting receipt' beside 'draft not posted'; the drafts handbook
is rewritten. Every over-the-wire harness confirms the way an agent does.

Docs: mcp-interface, rules B-43, parity, testing (with the For-P12
paragraph), architecture, and the unit's As-built block.

Tests: drafts.rs (a_draft_waits_for_its_receipt_and_posts,
the_gate_moved_and_the_mcp_error_is_unchanged,
a_reversal_needs_no_receipt_of_its_own, discard_unblocks_the_close_over_the_wire,
report_warns_on_draft_before_as_of, cpa_package_refuses_open_draft,
stale_preview_refused, every_confirm_tool_takes_a_preview,
digest_since_seq_is_posting_time, legacy_reversed_replays_identically,
gui_and_server_gate_agree), attention_parity.rs, format_upgrade.rs.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 28d46332e4 feat(store): draft states and discards are journaled, posted_seq is kept (P4)
Accounting reason: a draft that waits on its receipt, and one thrown
away, are facts about the books' working papers that must survive a
restart and replay identically, or a discarded draft would come back and
hold its period open. entry.draft_state_set and entry.draft_discarded are
drafts_v2's (an older version stops at the declaration instead of
misreading them); no figure moves. Schema 19 (taken at merge as the next
after the current last): entries.posted_seq, and a draft_states table
(drafts are not rows of entries, so the plan's entries.draft_state column
has nowhere to live). posted_seq is the journal line that posted each
entry (entry.posted, entry.reversed, the line that closed a period or
posted a schedule month), identical live and on replay.

8.0.6: a hand-written line of each new shape in
books_written_under_older_rules_still_open; fixture old-books/p4_before
written by 25b52580 (hand entries posted late, a reversal, a document, a
schedule month, a recurring draft, open drafts, a close) opens to the
same figures (serialized entries omit a building state, so no golden
moved); drafts_v2_is_its_own_feature; the fuzzer and GUI journal know the
types.

Tests: draft_states_replay_and_project, drafts_v2_waits_for_the_upgrade,
posted_seq_is_the_posting_lines_seq, an_older_version_stops_at_the_draft_events.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 400d0cdcab feat(pdf): the issued invoice carries what the customer pays from (P4b S4.5)
The page a customer pays from must show what the books issued, and only
that. InvoiceDoc gains each line's quantity and unit price ("3 x $33.33"
beside the line's own amount, never recomputed), the customer's PO, memo,
footer, the ways to pay (a QR code through labels::qr_svg for a method
with a link that asks for one), the seller's email and website, and a
Ship-to block. InvoiceVersion separates the issued copy (no stamp, no
settled rows, no "re-created" note) from the current copy, whose
"Re-created on" note prints the as_of it was given, never the wall clock,
so the bytes stay deterministic (B-40 item 3). Every amount reaches the
page through report::amount_parts; every string is data.

ledger_package builds all three copies (issued, DRAFT, current) from one
function over the invoice's own snapshots (A-13, D-55: number, terms,
bill-to contact block, shipping address), falling back to the party record
only for a document made before snapshots, so the three cannot disagree.
invoice_document drops its now-unused `today` argument.

rules.md gains B-39 (terms) and B-40 (numbers and the issued copy) from
the 8.3.13 spec blocks, CONVENTION until their sources are vendored.
No golden moved: the render test never held a hash, it compares two
renders for equal bytes, and still does.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 1fbc1383cb feat(bookspec): the specification text and an example for the ledger's own laws (P13 step 4)
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.

swaitsandClaude Fable 5.1 2ad192bbcd merge: P6, the evidence pipeline (branch P6, checkpoint ce366408)
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).

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.

settle_posts_a_document_step), books.receive_payment and books.pay_bill
with applications, books.bills_due, the agings' detail and tie-out, the
aging exports and the CPA package's aging CSVs, the handlers in
tools/settlements.rs. Twelve files conflicted with the S4.4 and S5
merges, resolved as plan 8.0.2 says: both routers; both test appends
(the shared match arm in arap_standing.rs spliced into both tests; the
shared `.unwrap()` in store.rs); the scope table at 124; one
invoices-and-bills handbook (S5's send step 1 with S6's steps 2, 3, 5
and procedures) registered once; docs/mcp-interface.md with S4.4's
create docs and S6's payment docs; S5's law renumbered 35 and S6's 36
(S1's is 34); the parity rows and sections of both. S6's wire tests
create their bills as S4.4's contract now requires (confirmed, the
vendor's number, a line account, the vendor's invoice uploaded) and live
in their own module beside S4.4's tests.

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 0322778683 docs(arap): B-41, the bookspec examples, and the four registers (P4b S7)
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.

swaits d5b9e5cf99 feat(mcp): the create tools preview and confirm, and the party keeps its contact block (P4b S4.4)
An invoice is issued, not edited. Without `confirmed` the create tools now
preview: the posting (with the accounts' codes, which the live chart may
not hold yet), the number it will take, its due date, terms and early
discount, warnings, and for an invoice the DRAFT copy of the PDF, handed
over as a file. Nothing is written and no number is used up. With
`confirmed` the invoice posts, takes the number the preview showed, and
files the issued copy with itself in the same call: `receipt.attached` on
its entry plus the link to the invoice, its SHA-256 in the event (A-1,
A-7, B-40). The copy the customer received is therefore the copy in the
books, and `books.document`'s re-created page can never be mistaken for
it. The result also carries a `mailto` link for a human to send it; the
books never send (A-4).

A bill keeps what the plan says a bill is: the vendor's own invoice
number, the vendor's invoice filed on its entry as its evidence, and, in
books that have declared `documents_v2`, an account on every line, so no
bill can land in General Expenses by default any more (A-9, A-10, A-13).
A vendor number entered twice is refused unless the caller says why, and
the reason is journaled with the second bill (B-40 item 4). Books that
have not declared the feature keep recording bills exactly as before, so
the owner's books keep working between units (D-39, 8.0.4).

Terms are resolved in one place and in one order: the due date given,
else the terms given, else the customer's or vendor's own default, else
the books' `invoicing.default_terms`; a document given only a due date
stores no terms, so an old-shape invoice is still written byte for byte
as before (B-39, A-13).

D-55: a party carries the owner's full contact block (phone, contact
person, billing and shipping addresses, billing email). It rides the same
`party.updated` event behind `documents_v2`, and an invoice's bill-to is
snapshotted at issue with the billing address and billing email in place
of the general ones when the party has them — `PartySnapshot::from_party`
is the one place that rule lives, so a later edit cannot change what was
sent, and the next invoice takes today's details.

Tests: the wire tests are the new `crates/ledger-cli/tests/documents.rs`
(preview writes nothing, the DRAFT copy, the issued copy's SHA-256 equals
`books.get_receipt`'s, numbers run, a bill's file and terms, the duplicate
refusal, the line-account rules, the terms fallback, the `party_id` alias
and the ambiguity it refuses, the contact block's set and clear, and the
bill-to at issue); `format_upgrade.rs` gains
`documents_v2_refused_until_consent` and the cut-over test now refuses and
then makes a document carrying a new field (8.0.6 item 3); the store
tests are `the_contact_block_round_trips_and_replays` and
`an_invoice_keeps_the_billing_details_it_was_issued_with`, and
`books_written_under_older_rules_still_open` gains a hand-written
contact-block event (8.0.6 item 1).

Merge does not need the owner's go-ahead: the live books refuse a write
that needs `documents_v2` until he gives it, and take every other write as
before (8.0.6 item 6). No figure moved: S4 moves none.

swaits 0e5aebda99 feat(store): journal the document fields and file the issued PDF (P4b S4.3)
S4.1 gave documents a number, terms, line accounts and snapshots, and S4.2
gave parties an email and default terms, but the store journaled none of
them: a document carrying one was refused by a temporary guard, because a
public write that replay loses would break I-3. This slice makes the
journal carry them.

- `invoice.created` and `bill.created` write a number, terms, bill-to and
  seller snapshots, references, memo and a duplicate's reason, and each
  line its account, quantity and unit price, every key only when set. A
  document naming none is journaled byte for byte as every earlier version
  wrote it (`no_new_fields_journals_byte_for_byte`), so the owner's live
  books keep working.
- All of it is behind `documents_v2` (B-27): a write that names one waits
  for the owner's upgrade, refused with `format_upgrade_pending` and
  journaling nothing; a write that names none never waits
  (`documents_v2_waits_for_the_upgrade`).
- `invoicing.first_number` is settable only while no numbered invoice
  exists (A-2, B-40): the series has begun, and a number is never reused or
  renumbered. Refused at `set_setting`, before anything is journaled.
- The issued copy is filed in the issuing call (A-7, B-40 item 3):
  `create_invoice_issued` journals the entry, the invoice, then
  `receipt.attached` on that entry (`INV-0007.pdf`, `application/pdf`,
  "Issued invoice") and `attachment.linked` to the invoice. There is no
  `issued_pdf` field: the attachment id is allocated after the entry exists
  (CD-A6), and the link is how the copy is found and how its SHA-256 is
  checked. Every refusal happens before the first journal line; the PDF's
  bytes are stored before it, so a refused issue leaves an unreferenced,
  deduplicated blob at worst.
- A preview runs the issue on a clone and journals nothing: the posting,
  the total, the number it would take and the due date (`preview_invoice`,
  `preview_bill`). Books that haven't upgraded keep the legacy shape: the
  copy is filed as "Invoice {id}.pdf" and no number is taken (migration
  item 5).
- Schema 16 adds the document columns; a line's new fields ride
  `lines_json` as its project does. `differs_from` already compares whole
  invoices, bills and parties, so it sees every new field.

8.0.6: (1) `books_written_under_older_rules_still_open` hand-writes both
new document shapes through JournalWriter and still opens; (2) a new
fixture `old-books/p4_s43_documents` was written by main d5385a7e (S4.2,
the version before this slice) through the old-books-writer harness, with
its expected.json; this version opens it and reports the same figures;
(3) see the note on R-A step 4 in the PR (the over-the-wire document write
needs S4.4's arguments; S4.2's invoicing-setting entry already covers the
feature's cut-over); (4) `documents_v2_is_its_own_feature` is green; (5) no
figure moves: no golden changed; (6) merge does not need the owner's
go-ahead; the live books refuse the new writes until he gives it.

just check green (no kernel function, Lean theorem or Ledger command, so no
`just prove` change).

swaits cb4e955942 feat(bookspec): rule identifiers from B-1 to B-45 (P13)
Every rule of `docs/spec/rules.md` now has one bookspec identifier,
`BS-<area>-<n>`: eleven areas (entry, ledger, statement, period, partner,
asset, prepaid, arap, revenue, 1099, format), numbered in B-rule order
within its area. The table is `bookspec/spec/rules-index.md`, and each
stated rule carries its id under its heading in `docs/spec/rules.md`, so
a reader of either can find the other.

rules.md's DECISION status becomes bookspec's CHOICE: the specification
names the options and an engine declares its pick (`Claims::with_choice`),
which is what an example already meant by `status = "CHOICE"`. B-39 to
B-45 are allocated in `plan/served.md` 8.0.3 and not yet stated: they
carry an id and an area and no status, so a later unit fills them in
without moving anyone else's number.

The catalogue names the examples that demonstrate each rule (56 files,
each under at least one rule) and the rule each refusal reason belongs
to. A rule with no example cannot be claimed: a claim needs evidence.
`docs/architecture.md`, `docs/testing.md` (tests and the For-P12
mutation targets) and `docs/parity.md` record the new shape; the
bookspec README points at the checker, the runner and the adapter.

filing scan's (a) and (b) renderings gain commas. docs/testing.md gains
the P7 section and the For-P12 mutation targets (D-33), and plan/

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 ebb5fcb46f refactor!: files only by handle: uploads in, downloads out (D-46)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
The owner (2026-10-23, via the question tool): "Uploads only"; and
before it: "What we would DEFINITELY want to avoid is passing a bunch
of BLOBs through AI context windows. That's just a pure waste." No file
passes through an agent's context, in either direction.

In: the inline arguments are gone with the 256 KiB limit (INLINE_MAX,
take_file's inline branch): content_base64 and its sha256 on
books.attach_receipt and books.file_document, w9_content_base64 and
w9_sha256 on books.set_w9, csv_text on the two CSV imports. A file comes
only by books.begin_upload and `wanderbooks upload`, named by its
upload_id; existing_attachment_id still names bytes stored already. The
five filing tools deny unknown fields, and any inline argument to any
tool is refused before it runs as an unknown argument pointing to
books.begin_upload (access log: refused inline_file).

Out: books.export (every format), books.asset_labels and
books.get_receipt view bytes hand the file over (HandedFile: download
command and expiry, D-29), as the CPA package and the W-9 do. Resource
reads stay text. A token keeps up to 64 handed files (was 16). The
access log's digest no longer exempts file bytes.

Docs: handbook files-in-out and parties-and-tins, mcp-interface.md,
rules.md, receipt-store.md, parties-and-attachments.md, plan/served.md
(D-46; the inline decisions marked superseded), STATUS.md, testing.md
(D-46: tests migrated to uploads and downloads, rewritten, removed,
added).

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 7741e96eb3 refactor!: one way to serve books: the stdio server is gone (D-44)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
The owner (2026-10-23): "We should probably just delete the stdio path
altogether. THere's no point in that. And it sitting there unused will
just lead to bitrot. Nuke it?"

Books are served only by the books server (`wanderbooks server`),
reached by agents through the bridge (`wanderbooks mcp --book ID`),
which stays.

Removed: `wanderbooks dev-stdio`, the `ledger-mcp` binary, and
`ledger_mcp::run` (stdio and `--http` over a bare data dir), with all
that only that mode had:
- files the books make coming back inline: `HandedFile.content_base64`
  is gone, and `download` and `expires_at` are always there;
- books with no access log or backups: `books.access_log`,
  `books.backup` and `books.back_up_now` are always offered, by scope;
- the settings file read and reloaded (`legacy_files`), the vault key
  named by a file or `--vault-key-file`, and the books dir's
  key-inside-the-books and git checks (with `paths.rs`);
- `wire.rs` (the bridge frames an agent's lines itself);
- `books.settings`' file fields and `books.start`'s `settings_source`.

`BooksServer` is built one way, from `Served` (a book as the books
server serves it), in production and in the unit tests. An unknown tool
is now a protocol error (mcp-tools.md). Inline file input is unchanged.

Then the owner's three decisions (2026-10-23, the question tool):
(a) `books.import_settings` is removed entirely (118 tools): old books
come in whole by `wanderbooks books adopt`, which reads their settings
file once; ledger-config keeps its settings-file parsing only as far as
adoption uses it (`load` and the path-reading `effective_receipt_policy`
are gone), and `books.chart_template` gives its settings as
`books.set_setting` changes. (b) The viewer's loose-books-folder mode is
removed (`--data-dir`, `--books-toml`, `--vault-key-file`, the settings
file and config.json followed): it opens only books of the data root,
reading settings from the journal and the vault from the book's own
`vault/` and `keys/`. (c) `wanderbooks dev-stdio` has no stub: it is an
unknown command like any other word. Also: an upload's expiry past the
calendar is an error, never an empty string.

Tests: every suite that drove the stdio server moved to
crates/ledger-cli/tests/ and drives a real `wanderbooks server` on a
data root of its own (tests/common), handed files by their download;
mcp_stdio.rs is mcp_journeys.rs. Tests of what is gone are deleted and
listed in docs/testing.md. Docs: plan D-44 (D-18 superseded), STATUS,
testing, rules, mcp-interface, the handbook, README; justfile recipes.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 d64e0e9cdf fix(k1 tax basis): odd cents of property basis run cumulatively (B-36, D-38)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s
The tax-basis K-1 shared each entry's built-in gain, property without a
basis, prepaid at book and property distributed among the members entry
by entry, every tied odd cent to the first member: three equal odd-cent
properties contributed 50/50 left the members three cents apart.

Apply D-38's rule (the closes' cumulative largest remainder, through
kernel::apportion_cumulative): tax_capital::RunningSplit keeps each
member's exact running share, rounds the running shares afresh to the
cent and hands out the change, so no member's running share is ever a
cent from exact and tied cents alternate. A negative running whole is
rounded as its magnitude, a zero one by the sign of the whole just
split, so a run of losses mirrors its gains part for part. Exact running
shares are taken to ten places before rounding: a sum of Decimal thirds
can sit a hair under its cent (the law found 399.93 as 399.9299...).

tax_capital::entry_parts runs the splits over every posted entry from
the books' first, in date order, whatever span is asked for, with one
count per set of members with a part in the entry: a member never takes
a cent of an entry they had no part in (Item L's capital contributed is
the basis of the property that member contributed), and the count never
restarts, since its weights are each entry's own amounts, not shares.
An entry's reversal takes its original's split back out of the count
(RunningSplit::unsplit), so an entry's cents are the same in every span
and next year's beginning is this year's ending. The K-1's per-entry
lines come from k1::entry_lines, which k1_detail now uses too.

The book property each member contributed in an entry stays split entry
by entry (each member's property must stay within their own credit);
B-36 says so.

Tests: tied_odd_cents_of_property_basis_run_cumulatively (fails on the
per-entry split: 665.86 / 665.83); a_member_outside_an_entry_never_
takes_its_cents (three members; fails with one count for all members),
an_entrys_odd_cent_is_the_same_in_every_span (a reversal across the
span's start; fails with the count carried span by span or the reversal
not taken out), the_split_runs_in_date_order (fails in posting order);
the law a_running_split_never_drifts_a_cent (5,000 cases: the
largest-remainder rounding of exact integer shares, ties to the first,
and the negated run mirrored; fails with ties to the later member or a
zero running whole rounded as a gain); unit tests for one split,
alternating ties, a member outside a split, the mirror at zero, unsplit
and the thirds case; bookspec example partnership-k1-tax-basis-odd-cents.
rules.md B-36, the handbook (tracing figures), STATUS, testing.md and
verification.md updated.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 535874e0f3 fix(cash flow): a payment to a government is other operating, by its payee
The P3 cutover review's open point 2: a state's LLC filing fee, booked
to an organization-costs account (tax category organization_startup),
read as "Cash paid to suppliers and employees". B-14 rule 5 sent a
payment to class (g) only when every operating line's account was
taxes_licenses, so the account, not the payee, decided.

ASC 230-10-45-17, read in EY's guide that reproduces it (Statement of
cash flows, July 2026, p. 43; the PDF re-fetched and its SHA-256
recorded in docs/spec/sources/fasb-asc.md), lists apart "(b) Cash
payments to other suppliers and employees for other goods or services"
and "(c) Cash payments to governments for taxes, duties, fines, and
other fees or penalties". 45-25's classes name only income taxes (f)
among the latter, so the rest are (g), other operating cash payments.
A formation filing fee is rightly an organization cost (its account and
tax line), and still a payment to a government: the payee is what
45-17(c) is about.

So rule 5 now sends a payment's government part to (g): of an
operating payment the structure classes (d), what went to a party with
the government_agency or tax_agency role (the chain root's parties, so
a reversal keeps its original's class) is (g), on any account; and, as
before, a payment whose every operating line is on a taxes_licenses
account is (g). Every party a government: the whole payment. A
government and a supplier named together: the payment is split by their
resolved shares (B-35), the government's part (g), the rest (d), since
ASC 230-10-45-22 has "each separately identifiable source or each
separately identifiable use" classed "on the basis of the nature of the
underlying cash flows" (EY p. 44; quoted in fasb-asc.md; it names the
three activities, read for 45-25's classes too as a CONVENTION). The
government's part is the payment x its share / the whole, rounded half
to even to the base currency's places, the rest exact, so the line still
sums to the payment and a reversal mirrors it. Shares that don't
resolve leave the whole payment (d). One naming no party is decided by
its accounts. Receipts are untouched (a refund from a government stays
(c)). No total changes, only which operating row a payment is in.

Two limits, from the review of this change: a government selling goods
or services (postage) is 45-17(b)'s supplier "for other goods or
services", so the rule says, and the handbook tells the agent, to add
such a payee as a vendor, never with the government_agency role (the
books can't tell what a payment bought; the role says it). And payroll
keeps its structure (CONVENTION): an entry with a line on the salary
expense or a payroll payable control account, or on a pay tax category
(salaries_wages, officer_compensation, employee_benefits,
pension_profit_sharing), stays (d) whoever it names: withheld taxes
remitted are the employees' pay, and the payables mix them with the
employer's taxes, which a remittance can't tell apart. So a remittance
to the IRS is (d) as it was before this change; the employer's payroll
tax paid on its own expense account is a tax, (g).

The first company's books have this case: their state filing fee moves
from "Cash paid to suppliers and employees" to "Other operating cash
payments" at every date once its entry names the state's agency with the
government_agency role and its own entry is the one whose cash the
statement lists (paid from the bank, or on a card that is a lender's
credit, D-42, or by a member through the members' account while it is
a financing account, B-14 rule 11, the way that fee was paid);
charged to an operating-payable card, its cash leaves in the card
payment, whose payee is the bank, and it stays with suppliers.
STATUS says how to check both, and that the cutover goldens' cash-flow
snapshots will differ on the two class lines only (totals the same),
so the next cutover diff isn't read as a regression.

Docs: rules.md B-14 rule 5 (the rule, its source quoted, the date and
what it was before); fasb-asc.md (45-17(b) and (c) quoted exactly, with
the guide's SHA-256); the handbook's entries section (name the agency as
the party on a tax, fee, fine or penalty paid to a government; a shared
payment named with both amounts; a government selling services added as
a vendor; payroll remittances stay with pay; a fee on a card follows the
card payment); fasb-asc.md also quotes 45-22 and 45-22A; bookspec
example cash-flow.government-fees.toml (a filing fee and a lawyer on
one organization-costs account, a license on taxes and licenses with no
party, a penalty to a tax agency on the wrong account, paper from a
supplier, an annual report paid through a registered agent, 37.00 the
state's and 100.00 the agent's; every figure by hand) with a new `class.<a..g>`
key in the
cash_flow query (bookspec README; the runner checks every class the
statement has is given); testing.md; STATUS.

Tests: ledger-core tests/spec_cash_flow.rs
`a_payment_to_a_government_is_other_operating` (the filing fee and a
penalty to a tax agency (g); the same account paid to a lawyer, or with
no payee, (d); its reversal next month keeps (g); a refund (c)),
`a_government_payee_moves_a_fee_on_any_account` (a taxes_licenses
license with no party (g); a payment shared half and half between a
government and a printer split 50.00 (g) and 50.00 (d), the government
alone all (g)), `a_shared_government_payment_splits_to_the_cent` (a
third by percent of 100.01: 33.34 (g), 66.67 (d); amounts split as
given; the reversal mirrors to the cent),
`a_payroll_remittance_to_a_tax_agency_stays_pay` (withheld taxes
remitted from a payable holding its payroll role, and pay on a
salaries_wages account, stay (d) with the IRS named; the employer's tax
on its own expense account is (g)),
`a_government_selling_services_is_a_supplier` (postage to a vendor (d);
given government_agency, (g): the limit the handbook guards); src
cashflow.rs `tests` `a_government_part_rounds_half_to_even` and the
proptest `a_government_part_sums_and_mirrors`; the bookspec example;
from the P4 review, `a_reversal_takes_its_originals_payee` (a fee and
its reversal next month land in one class, the chain's payee deciding:
the books keep a chain's parties one, so reading the reversal's own
parties is an equivalent mutant) and
`a_shared_government_payment_a_member_paid_splits_both_ways` (a shared
payment a member paid: each part with its own on_behalf; fails with
the on-behalf part unsplit). docs/mcp-interface.md: books.cash_flow
and the Roles paragraph say a government or tax agency payee makes a
payment other operating, and a shared one two operating lines.
Broken to confirm: without the payee check the five spec tests and the
example fail; without the split for mixed payees the two shared-payment
tests and the example (class.d -549.50) fail; without the payroll
exclusion the payroll test fails; rounding toward zero fails both unit
tests; without the tax-category route
`operating_classes_follow_asc_230_10_45_25`, the second test and the
example fail. The viewer's cash flow page,
rendered on made-up books before and after: the fee moved from "Cash
paid to suppliers and employees" to "Other operating cash payments",
every total the same; and on made-up books with an annual report
shared between the state and an agent: each part on its own class
line, every total the same.

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 6c587086a0 feat(iif): carry each line's project in CLASS, the classes declared first
The P3 cutover review's open point 1: entries carry projects (classes,
B-37), but the QuickBooks Desktop file (B-34) left the CLASS field empty
on every line, and neither B-34 nor the README said so, though B-34 rule
6 says nothing changes silently.

Intuit's IIF Import Kit (vendored in docs/spec/sources/intuit-iif.md,
the kit's SHA-256 unchanged): the `!CLASS` header help says "Only the
NAME column is required" and a subclass's NAME is its parents' names
first, joined by colons; the kit's "Import First - List Declarations"
example declares `!CLASS` rows before any transaction, and its "2004
Deposit (Income)" example names the class line by line in CLASS. So the
file now declares every class in a `!CLASS` list after the accounts and
before `!TRNS`, and writes each line's class in CLASS (empty where the
line has none). Books with no class write no list, byte for byte as
before. A line whose class wasn't declared is refused
(IifError::UndeclaredClass), never written classless.

A class's NAME follows B-34's rules for an account's own name: plain
ASCII (rule 3), a colon written '-' (it would start a subclass),
trimmed, '?' if nothing is left, cut to 31 characters: Intuit's qbXML
Onscreen Reference gives `ClassAdd`'s Name "maxDT" : 31 (and 31 in the
Canadian, UK and Australian desktop editions; 100 only in Online), the
same as its `AccountAdd` Name (both JSON files vendored by SHA-256);
Conductor's QuickBooks Desktop API reference agrees and says the name is
case-insensitive. Classes whose NAMEs would match ignoring case get
" (id)", round after round, as accounts get " (code)", except that
among names that match, those already written differently from the
books (made safe, or tagged) yield first, a second " (id)" if need be:
a class's own name is kept unless another class's own name is the same
ignoring case (classes 1 "Café", 2 "Cafe", 3 "Cafe (1)" are written
"Cafe (1) (1)", "Cafe", "Cafe (1)"). Each class is tagged twice at most
and ids differ, so none is left alike (a hand-built list is refused). Each class name
written differently is an IifChange (IifField::ClassName), said one
line each in the warnings and in the package README, whose
"written differently" paragraph now names class names' limits; its IIF
line says CLASS is each line's project when there are classes. The MCP
and viewer notes count "account or class name(s)".

API: `iif_classes(ledger)` builds the list; `journal_to_iif` takes it
(`&[]` for none).

Docs: rules.md B-34 rule 8 with its sources; intuit-iif.md (the
`!CLASS` help, the list declarations and deposit examples, Intuit's SDK
department page, the qbXML Onscreen Reference's ClassAdd and AccountAdd
and Conductor's class reference, each with SHA-256);
mcp-interface.md (books.export iif, the package note); the bookspec
example iif-quickbooks-journal-file.toml (two projects: one carried and
renamed, one only declared; every line derived by hand); testing.md;
STATUS (open point 1 done; point 3 waits for the close, the owner said).

Tests: ledger-import
`iif_writes_each_lines_class_and_declares_the_classes_first`,
`iif_class_names_fit_quickbooks_and_every_change_is_listed`,
`iif_class_names_written_as_the_books_have_them_are_kept`,
`iif_refuses_an_undeclared_or_unfit_class`, property
`iif_class_names_never_clash`; ledger-package
`the_package_iif_carries_each_lines_project` and the bookspec example.
Broken to confirm: CLASS written empty fails the two exact-file tests,
the package test and the bookspec example; the " (id)" tag dropped fails
the names test and the property; tagging every name that meets (no
yielding) fails the kept-names test and the property (its shrunk case,
"A-B" beside "A\uFF1AB", kept in the regressions file).

swaitsandClaude Opus 5.5 528c070605 feat: invoices and bills take a project, line by line (B-37 item 8)
A client project's invoiced revenue and a contractor's billed cost could
never count toward the project: books.create_invoice and books.create_bill
posted at once with untagged lines, and only a draft's line takes a class.
Job costing (B-37 item 3) collects a job's billings and the supplier
invoices for its direct costs on its cost sheet, so each document line
now takes an optional project.

The owner decided it on 2026-10-22 (plan D-43, rules.md B-37 item 8):
each line takes one project or none; a document spanning N projects is N
lines, each with its own amount; no percentage split, so every figure is
exact; a cost truly shared among projects names none on the document
and reaches projects only as entries of their own under the company's
monthly allocation convention, when books.conventions has one (otherwise
it stays untagged and the agent asks the human). The reasoning, stated
in B-37: job costing charges a job the costs traceable to it, whole, and
reaches shared costs only by allocation on a stated basis. ASC
340-40-25-7 counts as directly related both the costs traceable to a
contract (25-7(a), (b), (d), (e)) and allocations of costs that relate
directly to it (25-7(c)); 25-8 expenses general and administrative cost.
The books carry the first whole on the document's line and the second as
the allocation convention's own entries; neither is a percentage on the
document (sources/fasb-asc.md, 25-7 and 25-8 added). The handbook's
projects rule and the line's class parameter say the same, and no
handbook sentence lets a shared cost be split across a document's lines.

The accounting: the document's entry posts one revenue (an invoice's) or
expense (a bill's) line per project its lines name, in the order each is
first named, each the sum of that project's lines, and the untagged
lines' sum as one more line (arap::document_parts, conservation checked
by a proptest). A document naming no project therefore posts exactly the
one line every document posted before. The receivable or payable line is
never tagged: it is a balance-sheet line, which item 3 counts nothing;
the payments (receive_payment, pay_bill) move cash against it and take no
project either. Nothing but the projects moves: the P&L, the 1099
worksheet (payments made, B-19) and party totals (what moved the money,
B-35) read the same with or without the tags (twin-books test); the
projects with the untagged lines still partition the P&L.

- ledger-core: DocumentLine.class_id (serde-omitted when none, so old
  documents serialize as before); create_invoice / create_bill split the
  revenue or expense side by project and tag it; an unknown project is
  refused whole (atomically).
- ledger-store: a document line's project is journaled as class_id on
  invoice.created / bill.created, and the entry's line as
  entry.line_class_set right after its entry.line_added (the entry.posted
  lines carry class_id, as a hand-built entry's do). Behind a NEW journal
  feature, document_line_projects (KNOWN_FEATURES, declared by new books,
  asked for before the first journaled line, not even the control
  accounts written on refusal); not `projects`, which the live books
  already declared: the owner consents again at the next upgrade. A
  malformed class_id is corrupt; null or absent is none. Untagged
  documents journal byte for byte as before; old journals replay
  unchanged.
- ledger-mcp: each line takes class (id or name, resolved like
  add_line's, every one before anything is written); the result gains
  notes for a finished or abandoned project, and on an invoice for an
  on-spec project (is there now an agreement? on spec a hoped-for
  payment is no receivable, B-37 item 4), tagged anyway; books lacking
  the feature refuse with format_upgrade_pending. books.get_entry shows a
  line's class_id and project. The handbook's "an invoice or bill takes no
  project yet" caveat now depends on the books: gone where the feature is
  declared, an "until their format upgrade" note where it isn't.
- ledger-gui: an invoice's or bill's page (its entry's) lists the
  document's lines, each project a link that opens it; the demo's client
  invoices are tagged to "Client work", whose snapshot is now its revenue
  less its contractors. Looking at the page in a narrow window found a
  tagged line's tag pushing the amounts past the pane (any tagged entry):
  the name is now cut to leave the tag room, the tag itself at most half
  the cell.
- bookspec: an `invoice` event, and `lines` with `project` on a bill or
  an invoice; example projects-invoice-and-bill-lines-count-by-project,
  worked by hand, both projects client work (Zeta 3,500.00 - 1,200.00 =
  2,300.00; Harbor 200.00;
  untagged -1,750.00; together the P&L's 750.00; Dana's 1099 payments
  1,250.00).
- fuzz: fuzz_store_replay can declare journal features.
- Tests: core, store, MCP, viewer, the P2-served cutover fixture and a
  viewer/server parity test (its month lists the same length, not
  empty); a tagged document's reversal nets its projects to zero, live
  and replayed; books.get_entry's class_id; the handbook served as a
  resource both ways; each fix broken to confirm its test fails
  (docs/testing.md). Docs: rules.md B-27 and B-37 items 3 and 8,
  sources/fasb-asc.md, plan/served.md D-43,
  mcp-interface.md, testing.md, parity.md, plan/STATUS.md.

No proof changed (no kernel arithmetic: document_parts sums with the
existing document_total).

Book value is cost less what the books posted; the schedule's figure is

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.

missing or outside path gets one refusal, and the TIN-file registry and
text scan (and what they can't catch) are described. architecture.md:
the frozen envelope, the lenient next-line prev, no repair of newer
books. testing.md: the new laws and tests. verification.md and
parity.md: P0 notes (no new law to prove, no status moved).
The TIN text check, narrowed (2026-10-16; rules.md B-26,
mcp-interface.md): text is refused for a TIN the vault holds, in its
common renderings, or a stand-alone printed SSN or EIN shape, so bank
exports go in; the oracle a vault comparison gives is recorded as a
known limit for P7. testing.md: the P0 mutation run of the final diff,
per crate, and how each survivor was resolved (killed by a named test,
removed by simpler code, or argued equivalent).
The probe bound (rules.md B-26, mcp-interface.md): rule (a) answers
for at most two candidates a filing, so finding a TIN from its last four
takes on the order of 50,000 refused filings; the open limit now names
that path, closed by P2's access log and P7's human-only TIN channel.
testing.md: the law and its tests; tin_files.rs mutated again, 74 of
74 caught.

Review round 3: rules.md B-28 (four-digit years, amounts a line can
carry, checked products, bounded recurring runs) and B-26/B-27 updates
(BOM-less UTF-16, when set_w9 records); mcp-interface.md matches the
code (25 destructive tools, the five idempotent ones, no reverse_entry
receipt checklist, strictly above the threshold, no tool text names
wanderbooks.toml, dot names and roots inside the books refused, the new
settings lists); testing.md lists the new laws and this round's
mutation run.

Review round 4: rules.md B-28 says the bounds are for new commands
only, replay accepts every line an earlier version accepted, and derived
figures refuse rather than panic; mcp-interface.md documents plan_error
and the nullable totals; testing.md lists the old-books contracts and this round's
mutation run (core, store, MCP, config, GUI).
