Windows step 1 and 2 of D-62. Where Unix keeps the books' private folder
at mode 0700 and refuses one others can open, Windows now makes the same
promise with a DACL: `winsec::set_owner_only` gives the folder (and,
inherited, everything made in it) one protected allow entry for this
account's SID; `winsec::is_private` reads the effective DACL and owner
back and answers false for anything else (a missing DACL, an entry for
Everyone), so `Root::open` refuses a loosened root and `Root::setup`
makes it private again, exactly as the 0700 checks do. Every question the
system cannot answer is "not private". The root itself comes from the
shell's known folders (`SHGetKnownFolderPath`: the profile, and
LocalAppData wherever it was redirected), never from environment
variables the process that started us chose.
`rename_new` (the move that must never go over what is there, renameat2
RENAME_NOREPLACE on Linux) is `MoveFileExW` without the replace flag on
Windows, written through.
File locking sat behind `libc::flock` in ops.rs alone (the rest already
used std's File::try_lock, which is LockFileEx on Windows). It now goes
through `lock.rs`, which uses only std, so there is no second unsafe copy
of either call.
New dependency: windows-sys 0.61 behind cfg(windows), the raw bindings
only (no runtime), already in the lockfile through other crates; the
smallest Microsoft crate that covers SIDs, DACLs, the known-folder API,
pipe process ids and MoveFileExW. mise.toml adds the Windows target to
the pinned toolchain so `cargo check --target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
type-checks this arm on Linux.
CHOICE (P11c): nothing above the root is checked on Windows (the Unix
rule about folders above it being swappable has no Windows authority; the
profile's folders belong to the account and the Administrators).
Tests: tests/windows_root.rs (Windows job only), the cross-platform
`a_viewer_s_presence_is_a_shared_lock_others_can_see` in ops.rs.

D-63: the 0700 data root is the trust boundary already (I-1: hidden, not
locked), so the OS keyring added no wall and cost headless servers a D-Bus
session, CI a knob and every OS its own store. The file keeper is the only
store: run/tokens/, 0600, written atomically. The three keyring stores, the
file_keyring knob and their tests are removed; an unreadable token file is an
error, never no token.

D-61 (Q-9): the writer sheds the typesetter and the crate map is layered
again. The PDF/XLSX reader (extract.rs, plan P6) is now the plain library
crate ledger-reader, moved whole with git mv and no behavior change.
ledger-store depends on it instead of ledger-import, so the store no
longer builds Typst or the fonts; ledger-import re-exports it as
ledger_import::extract so gui, mcp, host and the fuzz targets compile
unchanged, and still never depends on the store. New crate carries only
the dependencies extract.rs imports (hayro, hayro-interpret, kurbo, zip,
quick-xml, thiserror); fuzz/Cargo.lock gains the new package.

The agent path was Linux-only because tokens had a keyring store only
there (every other OS hit NOT_YET, so `connect` and the bridge failed).
D-56's destination is one installation for macOS, Windows and Linux.
Both new stores sit behind the same Items trait as the Secret Service,
so INVARIANT 4 (one account, one item, locked is an error) is kept once
and tested once through the file keyring. Windows credentials have a
unique target name, so a probe stands in for a search.
New dependencies (ledger-host only, target-gated): apple-native-keyring-store
(feature keychain) and windows-native-keyring-store, the stores the
keyring-core 1 API we already use is published with. No ledger-core change.
The `portable` job builds and tests the workspace on macos-latest and
windows-latest. Windows is allowed to fail: the rest of the host is
Unix-only (inventory in docs/packaging.md). Not verified locally: no
macOS or Windows target is installed; CI is the evidence.
Also pins cargo-packager, cargo-packager-updater and cargo-generate-rpm
in mise.toml for the trial, and records that the trial is not yet run.

Needs attention was computed by the viewer alone, while books.start
hand-picked a handful of next steps. The human's list and the agent's
could disagree, and a new item had to be written twice (or, as
books.start showed, not at all).
Move the engine to ledger-package over PackageBooks: one function,
find/find_with(books, today, settings, integrity), reads the ledger, the
journal's event types (an entry's origin), the attachments and their
links, the statements, the reconciliations, and the database check. The
viewer's attention module now only maps Target to Route; books.start
turns the same items into its next steps (why = the item's title, top 12),
so the list the human sees and the steps the agent gets cannot drift.
PackageBooks gains settings, journal, statements, reconciliations and
disk_check, implemented for Store and Snapshot, so both views answer
alike. The W-9, reconciliation and 1099 predicates move beside the items
to keep one copy. ledger-package gains ledger-config and serde_json (the
receipt policy and the tool arguments the items carry).
Tests: view_model.rs and spec_kept.rs pass unchanged; the new
attention_parity.rs compares the viewer and books.start item for item on
the demo books and on a book written entry by entry. just check green.
bookspec is a specification first: every rule normative and sourced,
every rule demonstrated by concrete examples, and any accounting engine
checked against them through one interface (D-34). This moves the
examples' schema out of the test that happened to parse them and makes
the interface explicit.
- `bookspec/checker` (its own workspace, inside this repository until
the harness is stable): `Example`, `Setup`, `Event`, `Expect`, `Query`,
`Refusal` and the TOML parser, every structure `deny_unknown_fields`,
with `Example::from_toml` checking the cross-field shape (closed lists,
exact decimal amounts, dates, one event kind, `reverses` counting from
1, the shares summing to 1, commands accepted or refused and not both).
- `Engine` (`load`, `apply`, `query`, `claims`) and `Refusal { rule,
reason }`; the refusal's rule is the bookspec identifier, so a refusal
names the rule it belongs to. `Claims` also carries the option an
engine picks for a CHOICE rule.
- `bookspec/runner` drives any `Engine` through the examples and reports
per rule: pass, fail, not claimed. It compares the answer itself; an
engine is never asked whether it agrees with itself.
- `crates/ledger-core/tests/bookspec.rs` is the wanderbooks adapter over
`Store`: the loader parses through the checker, its own checks are
unchanged, and the new `the_runner_reports_every_claimed_rule_green`
runs all 56 examples through the trait. The IIF appendix is answered
through `ledger_package::export_iif`, the code its own test checks.
- `just check` runs the bookspec workspace's fmt, clippy, rustdoc and
tests too, so an example cannot rot (D-34, Z-17).
The plan's trait has four methods and no path for an example's
`[[changes]]` (a rename, the policy, an asset correction), which post no
entry: `change` is the fifth, required so an engine cannot skip those
examples silently. This is reported to the EM as the one departure.
One money rule holds here too: an answer's figures are exact decimal
strings, never JSON numbers, so no engine can round a cent through a
float.
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.

Books an update could write a newer format for open on their old format
and are asked at every open; anything needing a new feature is refused
until the owner agrees with the passphrase, after a verified backup that
includes the keys. New books start on the current format. Each projection

books until the owner agrees.

One wanderbooks executable. The books are open while the viewer, an
agent session or a terminal holds them: a host process takes leases on
a socket, starts the server (the hidden mode `wanderbooks server`) with

ledger_store::root: one private folder for every book, found without the
environment (--root, else the root setup recorded in a file only this
account can write, else the platform default under the home from the
password database). Every folder made 0700, files 0600; a root that is a
link, another user's, open to others, unmarked, or under a folder another
user could swap is refused; no error names it. Setup keeps a recorded
root, never makes a second root or moves books while one holds any, and
leaves a folder holding other things untouched. Books are created and
adopted one at a time; adoption reads the source under its writer lock
(changing nothing in it), copies into staging, re-hashes every stored
file against its name, checks every named file is there, opens and
verifies the copy with the source's head, imports settings for books
that keep none, syncs, and only then renames it into place.
wanderbooks setup makes the root and never prints where it is. Three
review rounds; mutation on the diff (docs/testing.md).

The server and the viewer are libraries with run(prog, args), returning
Exit(code) instead of ending the process; ledger-mcp and ledger-gui are
one-line shims (the live books keep using them until the cutover).
wanderbooks dispatches dev-stdio and gui to them in-process; a mode must
come first and owns its flags. The gui feature (default) leaves the
viewer out of the server-only build, which just server-only builds,
clippies, tests, and checks for window libraries. The viewer's mutation
recipe is retired (owner, 2026-10-18); its two musts are tested
directly. Two review rounds; mutation on the diff (docs/testing.md).

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

- 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).

The party page's "TIN on file" and the W-9 card's TIN copy the full,
formatted number on click (right-click: digits only). The viewer reads
it from the vault only at that moment, with the server's key file in
force, never creates a key, refuses a key inside the books dir, and
never draws more than the last four. A locked vault copies nothing and
says why.

tests/spec_gui.rs (31 spec-blind tests): exact money text round-trips,
file names never escape the folder or hit a Windows device name, history
against a browser model, fuzzy search against a subsequence model, axis
ticks, the view model against ledger-core, and the attention list.
Found and fixed:
- fuzzy matched greedily, so "ac c" scored 1 for "c" (the "c" inside
"ac") instead of 5 for the word "c"; it now scores the best alignment.
- ticks accumulated float error (a last tick at -5.55e-17 for a top of
0), gave more than n + 2 ticks at large magnitudes with tiny spans,
and overflowed for spans near f64's limit. Ticks are now whole
multiples of the step, checked, with [lo, hi] when f64 has no nice step.

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).

From the IRS form instructions (now quoted in docs/spec/sources/
irs-tax-lines.md):
- On Forms 1065 and 1120-S, Schedule K takes "only taxable portfolio
interest", and charitable contributions are among the items the entity
"must state separately". The tax summary counted both in ordinary
income and deductions; they now go in TaxSummary::separately_stated,
outside book_net and tax_net, and the report, MCP export, and viewer
list them under "Separately stated to owners (Schedule K)".
- Schedule C: "Do not include charitable contributions". The category no
longer applies to Schedule C (a sole proprietor's gift is personal, an
owner draw).
- interest_income's note: interest earned in the business itself is
ordinary income (other_income).
XLSX: a cell number is a binary double and Excel honors 15 significant
digits (Microsoft, "Excel specifications and limits"), so an amount over
$9,999,999,999,999.99 or finer than a cent is written as its exact text,
right-aligned, instead of a number Excel would show wrong. The old
conversion also fell back to 0.0 silently; gone. Property test: every
whole-cent amount up to 15 digits round-trips exactly.

Max-testing pass, ranks 4-6 and step 9 for ledger-core.
Fuzzing (rank 4): fuzz_op_sequence now drives balanced pairs, foreign
lines, periods, closes, and amounts from raw decimal bits, and asserts
the books stay valid (TB balances, posted entries validate, no draft in
a closed period); new fuzz_core_serde (every persisted core type
round-trips) and fuzz_store_open (a corrupt journal is an error, never a
panic); hangs count (-timeout=10). 54M executions; one crash:
- fuzz_journal_line: a number too big for an integer parsed as a float,
and its canonical form (which the hash chain covers) re-canonicalized
differently. The journal never holds floats (R-2), so the reader now
refuses them (JournalLine::parse, used by every journal reader);
regression a_journal_line_with_a_float_is_refused. Checked first: the
real books' journal has none. Rerun: 13.2M executions, clean.
Seeds in fuzz/seeds/ (synthetic, minimal); the grown corpora stay out of
git. `just fuzz <target> <seconds>`.
Miri (rank 4): the core's unit, bridge, and invariant tests under Miri
(our code has no unsafe; rust_decimal and chrono do): no undefined
behavior. `just miri`. A pinned nightly (nightly-2026-10-01, with miri)
is now in mise.toml.
Benchmarks (rank 6): criterion (new dev-dependency: the playbook's Rust
benchmark tool; none existed) in benches/books.rs; baselines in
docs/testing.md. The store's per-command rehearsal clone costs ~1 ms at
10k entries. No budget yet, so nothing gates on them. `just bench`.
CI: .github/workflows/check.yml runs `just check` on every push;
scheduled.yml runs proofs, the GnuCash oracle, fuzzing, and mutation
weekly. Tools come from mise.toml.
docs/testing.md: every layer, its oracle rank, command, runtime, and
gate; benchmark baselines; the ASSUMED invariants for the owner to reject;
the gap list with triggers. docs/oracle.md's fuzzing paragraph had
claimed persistent corpora that didn't exist; corrected.
Also: ledger-import now inherits the workspace lints (nightly cargo
warned).

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).

Every report a CPA expects, laid out the way US small-business books
read (QuickBooks as the reference):
- Exports: books.export gains general_ledger (by account, running
balances, splits), general_journal (the entry-ordered listing, which
the CPA package used to mislabel "general ledger"; alias journal),
members_equity, and trial_balance as of a date, in xlsx/csv/json, and
PDF for all five statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, trial
balance, members' equity). books.trial_balance takes as_of.
- CPA package: every statement as PDF and XLSX, plus the general ledger
and general journal, all for the fiscal year to date.
- Layout (ledger-import::report): multi-column statements (Total;
Debit/Credit; one column per member plus Total), "$" on subtotals and
totals, a rule above every sum (none over an empty section), a double
rule under statement totals, zero as 0.00, negatives in parentheses
with the closing paren hanging so decimal points align.
- Terms: "Net income (loss)"; for a multi-member LLC, "Members' equity",
member contributions and distributions named in the cash flow, and the
balance sheet splitting retained earnings (the Retained Earnings
account plus earnings not yet closed from earlier years) from the
fiscal year's net income (loss); the cash flow's "Adjustments to
reconcile net income (loss) to net cash from operating activities" and
"Net increase (decrease) in cash".
- PDF: Inter replaces the typst-assets serif fonts (bundled, SIL OFL 1.1,
license in fonts/; from the official v4.1 release), centered title
block, column-header row, full-width rules, footer "Accrual basis ·
Prepared <date> · Journal seq N" with page numbers. Amounts on total
rows stay regular weight so bold figures can't leave the decimal
column. typst-assets dependency removed.
- XLSX: centered title block, header row, Excel accounting formats with
"$" attached on sums, general ledger and general journal workbooks.
- Config: wanderbooks.toml [[company.members]] (name, share "50%" or
"0.5", capital_account; shares must total 100%) and [books]
accounting_basis (accrual | cash).
- Core: RETAINED_EARNINGS_CODE names the "3999" that period close uses.
- Fix: "today" is local time, not UTC; in US evenings UTC is tomorrow,
so reports defaulting to "through today" included the next day and
footers carried the wrong date.
Tests: layout (currency and rule placement, retained earnings vs. this
year's net income for a member LLC, footer text); exact template data;
deterministic PDFs; config parsing (members, shares, basis); stdio:
trial balance as of, February general ledger (beginning 1,004.00, splits,
ending 1,003.50), members' equity (contributions 1,000.00, net income
3.50, ending 1,003.50), members' equity PDF, the CPA package's ten files.

The printpdf statements padded columns with spaces in a proportional font
(amounts didn't line up), had no company name, printed negatives as
"-207.68", and put everything on one page (a long statement was silently
cut off past ~70 lines). Now:
- PDFs are typeset by Typst from one template,
ledger-import/templates/statement.typ. The laid-out statement goes in as
JSON data (sys.inputs), so account names are never parsed as markup.
Fonts are bundled (typst-assets: Libertinus Serif), so output doesn't
depend on the machine and is byte-for-byte deterministic. Statements
paginate, with the company/title repeated on later pages and "Page n of
m" plus "Prepared from journal through seq N" in the footer.
- US accounting presentation, decided once in ledger-import::report and
applied by both PDF and XLSX: tabular figures; "$" on each section's
first amount and on every subtotal and total, pinned to the column's
left edge; negatives in parentheses with the closing paren hanging (its
width reserved on every row, so decimal points align); zero as a dash;
a single rule above sums (none over an empty section) and a double rule
under statement totals; amounts never bold, because bold figures are
wider and would leave the decimal column. XLSX uses Excel's own
Accounting formats for the same result.
- Cash flow: "Net change in cash" is a subtotal; only "Cash at end of
period" takes the double rule.
- Core fix: cash_flow walked the chart in HashMap order, so the order of
working-capital and financing lines could change between runs. Lines
now follow account code. Test: five owners, twenty runs, always
3000/3001/3003/3005/3009; fails without the sort.
New dependencies (ledger-import): typst, typst-layout, typst-pdf,
typst-assets (fonts), typst-as-lib (World/font plumbing), serde_json (the
template's data). Removed: printpdf. Release ledger-mcp grows by the
bundled fonts.
Tests: exact template data for a hand-built P&L (like a golden); same
statement renders to identical bytes; 200 rows of Typst markup
characters render literally and span several pages; currency-sign and
rule placement; amount splitting.

Every statement export rendered life-of-ledger totals under whatever date
range or as-of label was asked for, and the P&L and balance sheet XLSX
were totals-only. Now:
- books.profit_and_loss / books.balance_sheet and the csv, json, xlsx,
pdf exports and CPA package all use core's profit_and_loss_for_period
and balance_sheet_as_of, with a line per account. The tools keep their
totals and add revenue/expense/asset/liability/equity account lines.
An omitted start is the first posted entry, never "0001-01-01".
- ledger-import::report lays a statement out once (section, line,
subtotal, total) for every renderer, with one exact amount formatter:
thousands separators, negatives in parentheses, no floats. XLSX keeps
numeric cells with an accounting number format, named sheets, company
header, totals with borders; the trial balance gains its totals row.
- ledger-mcp reads wanderbooks.toml (next to --data-dir, or
--books-toml): company name for headers, fiscal_year_start for the CPA
package's fiscal year to date (end derived; Feb 29 rejected), and
[books] receipt_threshold, which the server had been ignoring.
config.json's receipt_policy still wins when set. New dependency: toml
1.x (already in the lockfile via another crate).
- Store::journal_seq(); every report notes the journal seq it reflects.
Tests: company.rs unit tests (fiscal years incl. a July start, scaffold
parsing, bad settings); report.rs formatting tests; an MCP stdio test with
--books-toml (threshold 5.00 enforced, February-only P&L with account
lines, start defaults to the first entry, as-of balance sheet).
