A taxpayer identification number can be written 123,45,6789 or
(123) 45-6789 as easily as 123-45-6789, and the scanner only knew the
second: a comma-grouped number slipped through every party field, every
refusal that quotes its input and the access log's masking, which is how
a full TIN could reach a result the books promise never shows one
(rules.md B-26, I-7).
The scanner now reads a comma or a parenthesis between a TIN's 3-2-4 or
2-7 groups, and any run of spaces counts once however long it is, so
12 3456789 is an EIN. Commas and parentheses join only those groups:
an amount's thousands separators (1,234,567.89 is 1-3-3-2) still read as
an amount, and a nine-digit D-U-N-S number stays its own setting's kind
(company.duns). The old run reading is unchanged for everything it
found, which the property asserts; replay still reads a journaled line
as P2 did (B-28).
The truth table and the ASCII-equality property pinned the old separator
set, so they were updated with it: the property is now
has_full_tin_never_forgets_a_tin (what was found before is still found).
No journal, entry or figure changes: this is a text scanner only.
The project page opens on a snapshot: revenue, direct costs, the
contribution before overhead and its margin of revenue (a segment
margin: revenue less every cost traced to the project, fixed and
variable; B-37 item 7), in the black or red, and for on-spec work the
cost unrecovered if repaid. To date or this fiscal year. By month,
revenue and costs with the net to date in its own strip; costs by
category; the list colors each net by its sign. books.project carries
the same figures, and a parity test runs the viewer and the MCP on the
same books to the cent. Tests honor TMPDIR.

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.

Split kernel::entry_flows into entry_movements and flows_of so the
reversal-mirror proof fits CI; prove runs the fast harnesses, prove-slow
the 8 slow ones (own job in scheduled CI), prove-all both. Laws in
verification.md renumbered 1-31 with a table of all 55 harnesses.
MCP docs checked against the 115 tools (about 60 fixes) with a test that
every tool is documented; rules.md cross-references fixed; bookspec
statuses and loader tightened; viewer notes wrap and accounts sort by
code; STATUS.md says P3 is built, cutover pending.

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.

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.

books.rename_account; account names trimmed, bounded, refused when a
sibling's or TIN-shaped; books.show refuses what its target ignores. A
report asked for without dates covers this fiscal year so far, everywhere
(one rule for tools, descriptions and the viewer; the IIF and CPA package
keep their own dates). policy.require_tax_category warns or refuses; a
Form 4797 gain is shown apart on every return.

ledger-config: parse gets a sourced spec. A fiscal year starts on the
first of a month (IRS Pub. 538); tax_classification is read by whole
words (Treas. Reg. 301.7701-3, Schedule C instructions; "business corp"
no longer reads as an S corp, "corporation or S corporation" is refused);
duplicate or blank members and shared capital accounts are refused; a
negative or non-grammatical receipt threshold is refused; codes trimmed.
tests/spec_config.rs (65 spec-blind tests, 14 properties), fuzz target
fuzz_config_parse (weekly). Mutation: 55 of 55 viable caught (from 25/38).
The receipt policy moves to ledger-config, with one loader
(effective_receipt_policy) and one decimal grammar, so the server and
the viewer enforce and show the same rule (the viewer had its own: only
expense-like debits, a silent $25 default, and no config.json).
ledger-mcp: a module spec (MCP 2025-06-18 tools, JSON-RPC 2.0, the
operating contract). Amounts in are exactly -?digits[.digits]; a number
that is one account's code and another's id (vendors, classes alike) is
refused, not guessed; the threshold is validated at startup. Fixed:
add_line with a bad class journaled the line before refusing;
profit_and_loss_by_class ignored `class`; aging buckets said "0". A wire
in front of rmcp answers malformed JSON with -32700 and invalid requests
with -32600 and their id (rmcp dropped the first, omitted the id).
tests/spec_mcp.rs (26 spec-blind tests: every tool's result against its
own outputSchema, a random-call state machine checking the journal is
untouched by every refusal, amount grammar, previews, the receipt policy).
ledger-gui: money, accounting, and dollars never round (they rounded to
cents, banker's style); export file names avoid Windows device names,
trailing dots and spaces, empty names, and 255-byte overflow; specs on
attention, history, fuzzy search, and axis ticks.
ledger-core: the lifetime profit_and_loss is renamed unclosed_earnings
(docs/testing.md #3).

Max-testing pass, step 2: two spec decisions the owner confirmed
(2026-10-13), each test-first.
Aging (arap::aging_bucket): a document due today was "1-30 days past
due"; it is Current, since past due starts the day after (QuickBooks'
convention). Spec in the doc comment. Boundary examples at every edge
(due today, 1, 30, 31, 60, 61, 90, 91 days) fail on the old code. A
property: the balance lands in exactly one bucket, and time only ages
it.
Member splits (periods::allocate): the last member absorbed every odd
cent, so the same partner always got or lost it. Now largest remainder:
each share rounded toward zero to the cent, leftover cents to the
largest remainders, ties to the earlier member, a loss the negation of
the gain. The core is a new kernel function, kernel::apportion,
allocation-free so Kani proves it (n <= 3): apportion_is_exact (it
succeeds exactly when the shortfall is under a unit per part; then the
parts sum to the whole, each gains 0 or 1 unit, one may take the
sub-unit fraction) and apportion_is_fair (never a unit to a part while
a larger remainder goes without). Kani found an off-by-one in the first
version: a shortfall of n units plus a fraction was accepted. Native
regression apportion_refuses_a_shortfall_of_a_unit_per_part_or_more.
Properties at Decimal (2,000 cases, up to 5 members): conservation,
within a cent of each exact share, fairness, sign symmetry; they fail on
the old rule. Bridge: apportion agrees on i64 and Decimal.
Contract: closes journaled before this change replay exactly. New
member closes journal "rounding": "largest_remainder"; journal lines
without it replay as CloseTo::MembersLastAbsorbs, the old rule
(periods::allocate_last_absorbs, pinned by
closes_journaled_under_the_old_rule_replay_with_it). The members'
equity statement isn't journaled and uses the new rule.
Open gap: Lean proof of apportion's sum law for any n (needs a
permutation lemma on the ranking); Kani covers n <= 3, properties n <= 5.
The Lean closing theorems already hold for any split summing to the
net.

The engine only had life-of-ledger P&L and balance sheet totals, so every
export labeled with a date range or as-of date (PDF, XLSX, CPA package)
printed all-time numbers under that label. Core now has:
- profit_and_loss_for_period(start, end, class?) and
balance_sheet_as_of(as_of), each with a line per account
(StatementLine: code, name, normal-side amount) and exact totals.
- Ledger::closing_entry_ids(). Period statements exclude closing entries.
A close (Dr revenue / Cr expense / net to Retained Earnings, dated at
period end) moves earnings; it doesn't earn or spend. Counting it made a
closed period's P&L read as break-even, and made the cash flow show zero
net income plus a fake "owner contribution" to Retained Earnings. The
as-of balance sheet keeps closing entries: after a close the earnings
belong in Retained Earnings, not current earnings.
Tests: tests/statements.rs, a two-month fixture with every expected number
computed by hand (Jan NI 1,700; Feb 880; balance sheets on four dates; a
closed January still reporting 1,700 and a cash flow with one financing
line). Mutation-checked: dropping the closing exclusion fails it (0 vs
1,700). Properties: period P&Ls partition a year at any split, and a
range's net income equals the change in current earnings across it, with
A = L + E on both dates.
