One conflict, ledger-host commands.rs: main moved the agent-program lookup
into find_agent_in; kept that and carried the Windows parts into it
(.exe/.cmd/.bat, npm's global folder). The harness already used
default_root, so main's fix and ours agree.

D-27: a terminal panel along the bottom of the viewer (alacritty_terminal over
a PTY) runs Claude Code (default) or Codex in the book's books home, resizable,
collapsible, the choice remembered. The agent is an ordinary child process the
owner describes (agent_start); the viewer stays read-only: the agent writes
through the server like any other. A missing agent is offered through its
vendor's installer (a command to copy), never bundled; no folder is marked
trusted (Q-7, recommended answer: let Codex ask). Windows is not offered until
its ConPTY checks are recorded.
P11a found that onboarding with no terminal was false: the viewer opened only an
existing book. With no books and an owner, wanderbooks gui now shows a first-run
page: the private folder, the owner passphrase (typed in the viewer, optional),
the first books, an agent, then the books open. connect and New books... make
the books home. Tests: dock.rs, welcome.rs, books_home.rs (host and cli).
Docs: testing.md record and For P12, architecture, parity, gui.md, README.

spec_vault swept every file under a book, lock files included; on Windows
a held LockFileEx lock is mandatory and the read failed. The locks are
already dedicated files (never data), so the test skips *.lock. Merged
main (P13 step 6, the macOS server.log assert, P11a's AppImage identity):
host.rs keeps main's five-field identity on Unix and size/last-write on
Windows; the update poll and set_program_version are Unix-only.

The Linux half of the packaging trial, run on this machine and in Debian,
Fedora and Arch containers, and the recipes it produced (docs/packaging.md
holds the table and what it found):
- mise.toml pins cargo-packager 0.11.8 and cargo-generate-rpm 0.21.1, now
that `just package-linux` calls them. cargo-packager-updater is a
library, not a tool, so it is not pinned (update.rs does the checking
with minisign-verify, which is what the updater uses).
- deploy/packaging/: packager.toml (.deb, AppImage, the pacman tarball and
its PKGBUILD), the rpm table in crates/ledger-cli/Cargo.toml, the AUR's
own PKGBUILD (repacks the release tarball), build-linux.sh,
repo-indexes.sh (the apt and dnf indexes, unsigned until the signing
step), local-release.sh (a throwaway-keyed feed to try `update`),
test-linux-packages.sh (linux_packages_install_and_upgrade: install
0.1.0, open books as an ordinary user, upgrade to 0.1.1, check the host
restarted onto the new file, the books' last journal line unchanged and
`update` refuses; passes on Debian trixie, Fedora and Arch). A package
marks itself package-managed with share/wanderbooks/install-method.
- The icon is a placeholder square (the AppImage cannot be built without
one).
- .github/workflows/release.yml: on a version tag, build on ubuntu-24.04
(the oldest glibc the packages claim: a program linked on this machine
needs GLIBC_2.43 and does not start on Debian 13), attach the packages to
the release, and add them to the apt and dnf repositories on gh-pages.
No signing and no macOS or Windows job yet.
- The release profile strips symbols.

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.

The plan and the status documents say what is true after the merges
of 2026-10-29: served.md section 0, the 8.0.1 rows and unit Status
lines for S4.4, S5, S6, S7 and P6 (landed, with commits), the 8.0.2
resume paragraph turned into the record of what the merges found,
P6's At-merge bullet (the write-off and dedup interaction, the five
tests its interrupted gate never reached, schema 18), P9a's Done-when 1
verified by the green two-user job, D-58 and D-59 in order.
D-60 (the owner): per merge a compile and the unit's own tests; the
exhaustive gates once per batch, at the end. AGENTS.md's two gate
sentences, HANDOFF.md's merging procedure and the plan carry it, with
the reason: five full gates around five merges took twelve hours and
the one gate at the end found the same five tests.
Q-9 (open, for the owner): P6's `ledger-store` -> `ledger-import`
dependency, with the options and the recommendation; architecture.md
marks the arrow as under review. testing.md records the merge's test
changes under P6. STATUS.md gains "Now (2026-10-29)" with the gate
figures (170 suites, 2,944 tests, 77 minutes), the CI state and the
next steps; HANDOFF.md, roadmap.md, gui.md and the parties doc drop
the paused-branch wording; README counts 129 tools and about 2,950
tests.

The owner, 2026-10-29: mutation testing is for local runs, not CI. The
weekly workflow's mutation shards (core, store, import, config, MCP) are
removed; they failed every week on the survivors and timeouts D-33
deferred to P12, and their red hid the run's real findings (a
fuzz_store_replay crash and a fuzz_settings_replay build break, both
being fixed). just mutants-* stays for the desktop; P12 runs the pass
whole. Recorded as D-59; the docs that said the shards keep running are
corrected.

The planning session read plan/served.md, every design document and the
five branches the owner paused on 2026-10-27 against main (44ee4083),
with dry-run merges touching no branch. plan/2026-10-28_DRIFT_REPORT.md
lists every divergence and judges every recorded departure (all kept;
three owed back; one needs a decision: P6 made ledger-store depend on
ledger-import).
The plan: section 0 "What changed on 2026-10-28"; 8.0.1 and the unit
Status lines name S4.4, S5, S6, S7 and P6 as built but unmerged; 8.0.2
records the destination (D-56: the installed app, P11a starts now) and
the resume order with the known conflicts (the shared documents.rs
test file, the types.rs appends, P6 retaking schema 18, the law numbers
34 to 37); 8.0.3 lists the names the EM approved during the wave; P11a
gains step 0 (the macOS and Windows keyring stores, the Windows data
root and pipes, a cross-platform CI build: today the agent path runs on
Linux alone); Q-5 is due and Q-8 asks whether D-47 to D-54 stand; the
Landlock sentences in section 2 and server.toml are struck.
STATUS.md and HANDOFF.md say where things stand and how to resume;
roadmap.md and gui.md are rewritten to today. The docs lose their
stale facts: 122 tools, 2,700 tests, the parity floor at 21 with the
P4b notes the slices never wrote, the ten crates and their dependency
graph (jiff added to the core's allowed list), the cutover of
2026-10-20 recorded in capability-parity.md and parallel-run.md, the
P4b S1 law and its two Kani harnesses added to verification.md (law
34), the proof counts (51 and 9), and README, the site and install.sh
honest about macOS (the viewer runs; connecting an agent waits for
P11a's keyring store, and the installer now says so instead of failing).
just check on main at 44ee4083: exit 0 (167 suites, 2,871 passed, 0
failed, 7 ignored, the server-only build clean). No code changed.

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.

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

No Landlock, no seccomp, no helper: isolation is "same_user

consent). The viewer holds the books open while it runs and gains a
Books menu: New books, Back up now, Restore (preview, then confirm),
Close, Connect Claude Code / Codex. New commands `wanderbooks books
back-up` and `wanderbooks connect claude|codex`. The scaffold

Settings, conventions (posting templates, approval rules, policies,
close steps, calendar, mappings, notes), decisions, open items and
entry approvals are journal events (journal format 2). Books that keep
their settings never read wanderbooks.toml or config.json; the server
and the viewer take the vault key from --vault-key-file instead.
books.import_settings moves a settings file in once, exactly as the
server reads it. Approval rules, when enforced, gate every posting
path. Replay refuses what it can't read as newer, never as corrupt.
Lean: a record changes no figure. Mutation on the whole diff: every
survivor killed by a test but two equivalent (docs/testing.md). The
Company page says a late open item is overdue in words, not colour
alone.

The money arithmetic every invariant rests on now lives in one kernel,
ledger-core/src/kernel.rs: signing a line, totals, net, per-account
movements, reversal, normal balances, trial-balance columns, closing
lines, and the rounding plug for member splits. It is generic over a
checked `Amount` trait. The engine runs it on Decimal (validate,
movements, reverse_entry, account_balance, close_period_to, allocate,
trial_balance): there is one copy of the arithmetic, and it is the one
under proof.
Three layers, docs/verification.md maps every law to its proofs:
- Kani (src/proofs.rs): 17 harnesses prove the kernel at i64 for every
input up to 4 lines over 3 accounts. An entry is accepted exactly
when it is two or more positive, in-range lines whose debits equal
credits; accepted entries net to zero; grouping by account loses
nothing; a reversal mirrors and cancels its original; trial-balance
columns balance iff the books net to zero; closing lines zero their
accounts and a close balances however the net is split; the plug
makes parts sum to the whole. No panics, no overflow. kani::cover!
shows the proofs are not vacuous.
- Lean 4 (verify/lean): 24 headline theorems for books of any size. The
ledger is a state machine (add account, draft, post, reverse, open,
close), and in every reachable state the books net to zero, the trial
balance balances (as of any date), and the accounting equation holds.
Posting only appends ("posted is forever"), closed periods are
frozen, a close zeroes revenue and expenses and credits exactly the net
income, and period statements add up. Audit.lean shows standard axioms
only, no sorry.
- Bridge (tests/kernel_bridge.rs): the Decimal and i64 kernels agree.
What the proofs found (each one missed by every test, fuzzer, and
mutant):
- The engine accepted negative line amounts; only MCP refused them. Now
NegativeAmountLine: direction is the side's job.
- Summing lines near Decimal::MAX panicked. Lines are now capped at one
quadrillion and ten decimal places (AmountOutOfRange), which keeps
every realistic sum exact, and the kernel's sums are checked.
- FX conversion (foreign_amount * fx_rate) could panic the same way; it
is now a checked multiply.
- Kani itself: 0.68 mis-models symbolic-length copy_from_slice
(model-checking/kani#4904) and reported a reversal that doesn't net to
zero. The counterexample, replayed natively, passes, and a 15-line
standalone crate reproduces the bug. Harnesses avoid bulk copies, and
a should_panic canary will flag the upstream fix.
`just prove` runs it all (Kani memory- and time-capped, fails on an
unsatisfiable cover or a non-standard Lean axiom). AGENTS.md now makes
formal coverage part of every core change.
Also, docs: GnuCash is *an* oracle, never *the* oracle (the owner). The
spec is accounting principles, proved. Golden files are recomputed from
principles. External implementations (GnuCash, the old Sheet, QBO/Xero)
are cross-checks whose disagreements get adjudicated, never obeyed.
docs/oracle.md gains "Who is right"; AGENTS, README, architecture,
roadmap, parity, and STATUS are reworded to match.
