A payroll tax remittance was journaled as a plain entry, so the viewer
labeled it "Journal entry" and, at a 0.00 threshold, flagged it as
missing a receipt (the server posts it without one, like a payroll
run). The store now names it with payroll.taxes_remitted, as it names
runs with payroll.run; replay and the projection pass over it, and the
viewer's journal page describes it.
tests/view_model.rs: the cash history is never empty when cash moved
and ends on the last day it did; the prior month runs to the same day;
burn averages over only the months the books cover, half away from
zero; cash accounts found by name when the settings name none; card
accounts; each entry's accounts debits first, once each; only what
arrived since the last refresh is fresh; integrity counts files again
without rereading them; the invoice's customer, the bill payment's
vendor, payroll and remittance origins.

profit_and_loss_by_class re-added every posted entry in the range,
closing entries included: after closing January, its by-class P&L for
January showed an unclassified row of the whole period's net income,
negated. Closing entries are left out, as profit_and_loss_for_period
leaves them out.
tests/oracle_mcp.rs (24 tests): every export (CSV, JSON, XLSX, PDF,
IIF) against ledger-core's reports on the same books; the CPA package's
contents; P&L by class; the 1099 worksheet; disposals; depreciation;
payroll remittance; the digest against the journal; books.show's viewer

year_earnings counted every closing entry dated this year against this
year's income, but a close takes all unclosed income through its end,
earlier years included. A partnership closing January after an unclosed
December printed "Net income (loss)" -969 for a year earning +730, and
the closed December as "Undistributed earnings, prior years". The
unclosed part is now the income after the last close, from no earlier
than the fiscal year's start (closes are cumulative).
Unit tests: the 25 MiB upload limit, YYYY-MM periods, config_mentions
for every setting naming a code, report members, year earnings before
and after a close, and which entries may lose their last receipt.
tests/startup.rs: --help, the default data dir under HOME, settings
read from beside the books, and a held lock refused after the wait
instead of waited on forever.

Kpis gets a spec (cash, liabilities, receivables, month-to-date against
the same days of last month, fiscal year to date, burn). tests/view_model.rs
computes each from ledger-core on random books (month ends, leap days,
any fiscal start) along with the period ranges, cash history, account
labels, journal count, receipt rule, origins and parties, the blob
root, and integrity counts. Burn rounds half away from zero, like the
rest of wanderbooks (it was banker's rounding).

Company details (EIN, state number, address, every profile value), an
entry's number and amount, an account's code and balance, a document's
file name and SHA-256 copy on click: a pointer and copy icon on hover,
a check for a moment after. Amounts copy as their exact plain decimal
(fmt::plain: no "$", commas, or parentheses; "-" for negatives); where a
click already drills down (report cells, register and transaction rows,
general ledger lines), a right-click menu copies the amounts, the entry
number, or the description. The sidebar's chain check copies the
journal head and data folder.
tests/copy.rs: every display style copies back to the exact value

tests/read_only.rs: with every file and folder of the books read-only on
disk, the viewer loads, follows live, and renders every page (receipts
included), and every file keeps its bytes, size, and mtime; on writable

Found: with no writer running, the snapshot's read-only open of the WAL
database had to create -wal/-shm (a write into the books) and failed on
read-only books, showing a false "database unreadable". With no -wal
file no writer has it open, so check_disk now reads it immutable.

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.

in the viewer's journal. The MCP tool lists wanderbooks.toml settings
that still name the old code. The server instructions now warn that the
engine can't tell a same-type account with another purpose at a control
code (a hosting expense at payroll's 6100).

tests/spec_import.rs, written from the import crate's specs and sources
alone: every statement foots as printed on random books (P&L, balance
sheet with and without members, cash flow, trial balance, members'
equity), format_amount round-trips, bank CSV round-trips in both layouts
with date-order scenarios, IIF transactions sum to zero with every
account declared and ASCII fields, XLSX cells read back through a small
zip/DEFLATE reader, PDF labels with Typst markup render as text and the
bytes are deterministic, chart CSV and templates.

at 69 (69-99 are 1900s). Two-digit years are computed by POSIX now.
- An amount finer than a cent went into an XLSX as rounded text ("1.01"
for 1.005); it is written as its exact text now.

- Starter charts put "Platform and Payment Processing Fees" at 6100, the
code payroll posts wages to, so a template company that ran payroll
would book its wages as processing fees; their own payroll accounts
(7000, 7050, 2300) were never used. Now 6100 Salary & Wage Expense and
6110 Payroll Tax Expense (the engine's control accounts, with tax
categories), fees at 6060, and the unused accounts gone (the
withholding payables 2110-2150 are created when payroll first runs).
New tests: every template imports with categories valid for its
return; no template puts another account at a control code; a
partnership names every partner and its shares sum to 100%.
- format_amount printed a negative zero ("(0.00)" for -0.004); it rounds
half away from zero first now, like amount_parts.

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.

New vendored sources (docs/spec/sources/): Intuit's bank CSV upload and
IIF formats, ECMA-376 / Excel number storage, and the IRS form lines the
tax categories map to.
IIF export (rewritten to Intuit's IIF Import Kit):
- declares every account first (!ACCNT NAME, ACCNTTYPE, ACCNUM): an
undeclared account is created in QuickBooks "as a new bank account";
the MCP export types them (cash accounts BANK, the control accounts AR
and AP, registered fixed assets FIXASSET, the rest by type);
- subaccounts by colon path, parents first; colons in a name replaced;
- ASCII only (IIF is ASCII text), dashes and quotes transliterated;
- the kit's 2007+ journal layout and M/D/YYYY dates; an entry using an
undeclared account is refused.
Bank CSV:
- the 4-column layout is money out then money in by position, which
matches Intuit's "Credit, Debit" and banks' "Debit, Credit" both (the
doc's "Expense, Income" labels were wrong, the parsing was not);
- a slash date's order comes from the file (a part over 12 settles it)
or the caller's new date_order, never a guess: Intuit recommends
dd/mm/yyyy, US banks write mm/dd/yyyy;
- fractions of a cent and double negatives ("(-5)") are refused; the
header is recognized on the first non-blank row.
Chart CSV: a blank code or name is refused with its row (found by the
new fuzz_import_csv target), and the core now refuses a blank account
code or name too (replay keeps older books).
MCP:
- books.import_chart_csv and books.import_bank_csv rehearse the whole
file on a copy of the ledger first: a bad row anywhere refuses the
file (before, a duplicate within the file, a parent after its child,
or a date in a closed period left earlier rows behind);
- bank rules: the longest matching pattern wins (they arrive in a map,
so "first match" changed from run to run).

Final store mutation run: 357 caught + 1 timeout of 365 viable (from 82%
this morning). Three of its seven survivors now have tests:
- replay refuses a re-chained journal whose schedule posting differs
from what it re-derives (check_replayed_entry guards that event);
- a disposal refused for an account's type says the type it needed;
- a database whose last pages are damaged while its settings still read
fails the integrity check and is rebuilt (verified to fail with the
check disabled: "database disk image is malformed").
The four left are equivalent: sort_value's two arms, OpenFlags | vs ^,
and writing the long form of a sweepless retained-earnings close.

Store mutation rerun: 345 caught of 373 viable (92.5%, from 82%). The
survivors, triaged:
- Removed code the survivors showed could never matter: set_line_class's
hand-written checks (its rehearsal refuses first), ensure_on (the
engine creates missing control accounts itself), and verify's
live-vs-replay halves of the asset, class, and payroll comparisons
(the whole-ledger comparison above them already checks that; the
SQLite read-back halves stay).
- New tests: disposal account types; depreciation periods must be real
months; search_entries (filters, newest first, paging, no drafts);
the database's invoice amount paid and status; replay refusing a
re-chained journal whose closing entry differs from what it
re-derives; a projection missing a table.
- Equivalent: sort_value's arms (serde_json's maps are already sorted
without preserve_order, which nothing enables; the function stays as
the guard if anything ever does), OpenFlags | vs ^ (disjoint bits), and
writing the long form of a sweepless retained-earnings close (replay
reads both).

Store::open refused books whose database recorded a base currency other
than the journal's, with JournalCorrupt, though the journal was fine and
the database is derived (a mutation-testing survivor: nothing tested
the case). Now the currency comes from the journal, and a database that
fails its integrity check or disagrees on currency goes through the same
path: kept aside for forensics and rebuilt (open SCENARIO 6).
Also tests: the viewer tells a database Behind the journal from one
Ahead of what it has read; the table check counts missing and
unexpected rows; a new journal creates its directory; a stored blob
exists and an unknown one doesn't.

From the first store mutation run (324 caught of 396 viable):
- receive_payment and pay_bill repeated the engine's refusals by hand
after rehearsing the engine itself, so those checks could never fire
(their mutants survived). Removed: the rehearsal is the check.
- New hand-computed tests: a disposal's final catch-up after some
depreciation was posted (200 of 300, gain 100); a disposal on the
purchase date (allowed) or the day before (refused); a retained
earnings close with a sweep replays it; a float inside an array is
refused; the viewer's journal and head hash.
- The concurrency test's reader stops when the writer thread ends, not
only when it says it's done, so a mutant that kills the writer fails
the test at once instead of spinning to the five-minute timeout.

The refusal property gained the converse law (an accepted command
journals something; only batch runs may find nothing to do) and checks
the store's class and payroll listings. It found a schedule registered
with an out-of-range total whose first month was refused after its entry
was begun: the live ledger kept a draft the journal never had.
- Core: compound commands (post_schedule_month, reverse_entry,
close_period_to, create_invoice, create_bill, receive_payment,
pay_bill, run_payroll, remit_payroll_taxes) run inside
Ledger::atomically, so a refusal partway leaves the ledger exactly as
it was.
- Core: a schedule total no line could carry, or finer than a cent, and
an asset cost beyond the line range, are refused at registration.
Replay keeps older schedules (replay_register_schedule).
- Store: add_line, add_line_fx, mark_cleared, set_fx_rate,
post_schedule_month and close_period_to changed the live ledger before
journaling; they now run on a copy, journal what it produced, then
swap it in, so a failed write leaves the live books as journaled.
New spec-blind suite tests/spec_store.rs (57 tests written from the
store's specs alone). Its two findings, adjudicated:
- A file filed twice under different names listed the first name and
type for both (the projection kept them per blob). Schema v8 gives
each attachment its own; older databases backfill and heal by verify.
- Withdrawn attachments stay in the store's listing, marked (the MCP
listing hides them): the spec and doc said "omit" and are corrected.
Also removes journal::truncate_to_last_good_seq: unused, and it dropped
everything after the first bad complete line, which the books now treat
as corruption for a person, never repaired automatically.

Each close into members' capital rounded on its own, ties to the
earlier member, so twelve monthly 50/50 closes of odd-cent income could
leave one member several cents ahead of half the year (docs/testing.md
#12, found with the members' equity fix).
- CloseTo::Members now splits cumulatively over a run (closes back to
back with the same members and shares): each close gives a member
allocate(run total so far) - allocate(run total before). Periods
record their close order and a cumulative close's members and net
(Period::close_seq, member_close) so the next close continues the run
and replay recomputes it exactly. A close to anything else, or other
shares, ends the run.
- Journaled "rounding": "cumulative". The per-close rule is kept as
CloseTo::MembersPerClose for closes journaled "largest_remainder";
older closes still replay with the last member absorbing it.
- Lean: runPart_telescopes (a member's total from a run is their
allocation of the run's total) and closePart_total (each close hands
out exactly its net), audited to the standard axioms.
- Tests: hand-computed three one-cent months (per close A 0.03 / B 0;
cumulative A 0.02 / B 0.01), a run ending, a property that each member
stays within a cent of their share (fails on the per-close rule), and
a store contract that each rule journals and replays as itself.
Wanderland's books have no closes yet, so all of theirs use the new rule.

New concurrency test: one thread writes entries, drafts and receipts as
fast as it can while a Snapshot (the viewer) refreshes in a loop. At
every refresh the snapshot's books must balance, never go backward, and
never see the writer's database as differing from the journal; at the
end it must equal the writer in full. It failed 30 runs in 50:
check_disk read the applied position and the tables in separate
statements, so a write landing between them made a consistent database
look like it "differs", which the viewer shows as a problem in Needs
attention.
- check_disk reads in one read transaction (one consistent view).
- A database that has applied lines the viewer hasn't read yet is now
DiskCheck::Ahead ("viewer catching up"), not Behind.
- Without the transaction the test fails 14 runs in 20; with it, 50/50.
Also: members' equity spec 3b states the exact bound (a member's period
income is within two cents of their share, one cent of rounding at each
end; the running balance chains exactly), and the spec-blind property
checks that bound. docs/testing.md gains the concurrency layer and item
12: each close into members' capital still rounds on its own (pending).

A capital account is one running balance (Form 1065 Schedule K-1
instructions, Item L: beginning and ending capital "based on the
partnership's books and records"), but the statement split prior
earnings and the period's income separately, so a member's ending on one
statement could differ by a cent from their beginning on the next.
Now each member's share of undistributed earnings is allocated as of a
date (largest remainder, as before): beginning as of the day before the
period, ending as of its last day. A member's period income is the
roll-forward's remainder (their share within a rounding cent); incomes
still sum to net income. New property
each_members_capital_chains_across_statements (random books, odd-cent
shares, closes to members or not, any split date) fails on the old code
and passes now. The hand-computed test is recomputed: the old split gave
two cents off an even 50/50 to date.
Also: rules.md B-13 quotes Item L; docs/testing.md #7 and #8 marked
changed; the CPA-question list is replaced by the rule that wanderbooks
settles questions from the sources and makes real choices per-company
settings.

From ASC 230 (via Deloitte DART and PwC Viewpoint), replacing two
formerly assumed behaviors:
- Financing and investing are gross (230-10-45-7): per account, cash in
and cash out are separate lines (contributions apart from
distributions, borrowing apart from repayment), netted only within
one entry. Lines come in code order, in before out.
- Investing includes making and collecting loans and buying investments
(230-10-20, 45-13), not only registered fixed assets:
CashFlowParams gains investing_accounts.
- The roles are per-company settings: [books] financing_accounts and
investing_accounts in wanderbooks.toml (beside cash_accounts). The MCP
tools (cash_flow, export, CPA package) default every list to them and
share one path; the viewer reads them too, falling back to its name
guess for debt. A due-to-owners liability listed as financing gives
PwC 6.9.3.1's constructive treatment of expenses an owner paid.
rules.md B-14 quotes the sources; new tests cite them; docs/testing.md
#8 is resolved.

Each formerly ASSUMED behavior is now CONFIRMED, CONVENTION, DESIGN, or
CHANGE (pending), with its source (Reg. S-X, ASC 230 via Deloitte DART,
IRS K-1 instructions, OpenStax). Two need engine work: members' equity
should allocate cumulatively so each member's beginning equals the prior
ending (#7), and the cash flow should show financing gross and classify
investing by account role (#8). Two questions for the CPA are listed.
The test doc comments that relied on them now cite the verdicts.
Core mutation run: 1,011 caught + 13 timeouts of 1,024 viable, 0 missed.
No benchmark budget, by decision.

CI's run of the store refusal property found a payroll run that posted
$65.27794: the employer tax was passed in unrounded and nothing refused
it, though rules.md B-3 already says a ledger in one money holds no
fractions of its smallest unit. Sums of it then differed in scale
between journal replay and the SQLite read-back.
- Ledger::post_entry refuses any line finer than its currency's ISO 4217
minor unit (FinerThanMinorUnit), whatever made the line: payroll,
closes, disposals. add_line refuses it up front. Older journals replay
as booked through replay_post_entry. Spec tests for the kernel's
ten-place limit now run on the replay path.
- The property's body is now run_ops, so failing sequences become named
regression tests (regression_payroll_with_a_fraction_of_a_cent). The
generator rounds payroll tax to the cent, as callers must.
- Ledger derives PartialEq and gains differs_from; Store::verify compares
the live ledger with the journal replay in full (drafts, documents,
schedules, periods, settings), not just balances, and names the parts
that differ. The property checks the ledger its commands built against
that replay and against the reopened books.

A crash or power loss mid-append can leave a partial last line. The
writer acknowledges an append only after its whole line is synced, so
that line was never acknowledged: opening now saves those bytes to
journal.jsonl.torn.<time>, truncates to the last newline, and journals
journal.tail_repaired (replay and projection ignore it; the GUI shows
it; books.digest reports it in journal_repairs). Damage before the last
newline is still corruption and still refuses to open. Tested at every
byte of the last append.
The MCP server now waits up to ten seconds for the writer lock: a
restarted server (a client reconnecting) raced the exiting one and died
with Locked, which also made mcp_schedules_and_recurring_over_stdio
flaky. The test harness now waits for each server to exit.

The refusal property now starts from real books and adds compound
commands with valid arguments (book an entry, register an asset or
schedule, raise an invoice or bill, close a month to members), so every
command's success path is exercised. Compound commands checkpoint after
each step, so the law is checked against the one command refused.
STORE_CASES sets the case count (256 by default).
It found two bugs:
- run_recurring created drafts dated inside a closed period (B-12).
generate_recurring now refuses them, atomically; the store leaves
them ungenerated and books.run_recurring reports them in
skipped_closed_period for a human to decide. Replay uses
replay_generate_recurring so older journals still open. The store
also journals before mutating the ledger here, as everywhere else.
- Disposing an asset for no proceeds (scrapping it) journaled a
catch-up depreciation entry and a half-built draft with a 0.00 line,
then refused. Zero lines are now left out (Store::disposal_lines,
shared with the MCP preview), and the whole disposal is rehearsed on
a clone before anything is written.

Max-testing pass on ledger-store, fault injection (rank 1). A full disk
is simulated with no code seam: the test re-runs its own binary as a
child under bash with the file size capped (ulimit -f, SIGXFSZ
ignored), so writes past the cap fail as on a full disk. Two bugs, both
of which left the books unopenable:
1. SQLite side: applying one journal line runs several statements (rows,
events mirror, last_applied_seq) in autocommit. When the disk filled
partway, the rows committed but last_applied_seq didn't, and the next
open's catch-up re-applied the line into "UNIQUE constraint failed:
entries.id". Each line now applies inside a savepoint: all or
nothing. (docs/receipt-store.md promised exactly this heal; it
wasn't atomic.)
2. Journal side: an append that failed partway left a partial line, and
any later line would land after it, mid-journal. append now cuts the
file back to its length before the write on any error.
Tests (tests/faults.rs, its own binary because the child re-runs it):
a_full_disk_mid_command_leaves_the_books_whole (the database fills
first) and a_full_disk_mid_append_leaves_only_whole_journal_lines (the
journal writer alone). Both shown to fail without their fix.

Max-testing pass on ledger-store (security property, rank 2). Blob ids
come from the journal, which is untrusted input on disk. BlobStore built
paths from any string: an id under four bytes (or with multi-byte
characters) panicked on slicing, and exists() would report on any path
an id like "../../x" reached. get() never served such bytes (it serves
only content whose SHA-256 equals the id), but it read them.
Now only a 64-hex-digit id names a blob; anything else is an error from
get() and false from exists(), touching nothing. Test
a_blob_id_never_reaches_outside_the_blob_store (empty, short, unicode,
traversal, absolute, non-hex, 63/65 digits; uppercase hex still works).

Max-testing pass, step 8. The final mutation run left 112 survivors
(89% caught). Three agents triaged them by file, by the playbook's
table: spec the boundary then test it, a law rather than one more
pinned value, assert the real value, never weaken a test. Every expected
value is hand-computed.
- reports.rs (35): 28 killed, chiefly cash flow (inclusive start date,
each line's sign and label, a loss on disposal moving to investing,
financing designation), general ledger and members' equity date
boundaries, and the balanced() checks (a real report nudged by a cent
must stop balancing). 7 equivalent: four >/>= after an early return on
zero; two in dead code (removed in this commit); one sign of a zero
cleaned on output.
- ledger.rs, kernel.rs, journal.rs, money.rs (52, plus one new): 49
killed, including every replay_* mutant at the core level (ids,
accumulation, status, vendor tags, out-of-order refusal), FX rates,
0%/100% deductible boundaries, a dividend sweep with no income, the
legacy member rounding at close, a bill paid on its own date, a
liability-account reconciliation, mixed-currency entries (via serde),
ISO 4217 minor units, Display/Debug. 3 equivalent: zero refused before
a </<= check; a period whose end is in a closed period refused earlier;
columns(0).
- schedules, tax, analysis, payouts, assets, form1099 (25): 23 killed
(schedule length 1-600, recurring end on its start, frequency parsing
and stepping, cost of goods in tax net, a zero payout, disposal on the
purchase date, quarter starts, labels); 2 equivalent (zero adds zero;
days_held is provably >= 1).
Two small production cleanups the triage surfaced: kernel::columns(0)
returned a negative-zero credit that would print "-0" (regression
a_zero_movement_has_no_negative_zero_column, shown to fail before); and
cash_flow computed a book value it never used.
Spec lines added where a boundary wasn't specified (cash flow's
inclusive start and line signs, members' equity start date, payout with
no deposit, disposal on the purchase date, bill paid on its own date).
`just mutants` now runs core and store tests (the store's replay tests),
not the whole workspace, which rebuilt the viewer for every mutant.

Max-testing pass on ledger-store, found during the survey: nothing
stopped two processes from opening the same books for writing. Two
agent sessions (two MCP servers) on one books dir would each extend the
hash chain from the same last line; one write from each broke the
journal ("seq gap: expected 3, found 2") and the books would not open.
The store now holds an exclusive lock on books-data/wanderbooks.lock
(std's File::try_lock, no new dependency) from before it reads the
journal until it is dropped; the OS releases it if the process dies. A
second writer gets StoreError::Locked saying another process has the
books open. The viewer reads through Snapshot and never takes the lock.
The lock file is git-ignored in the books scaffold.
Regression: a_second_writer_is_refused_while_the_first_has_the_books
(refused while open, allowed after close, books whole).

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 Stephen 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, rank 3. tests/model.rs transcribes the Lean ledger
state machine (verify/lean/Wanderbooks/Ledger.lean) into the plainest
Rust with the same observable behavior: lists of accounts, drafts,
posted entries, and periods. Random command sequences (add account,
draft, add line, a balanced pair of lines, post, reverse, create period,
close), weighted toward commands that interact, run against both; after
every command the engine and the model must make the same accept/refuse
decision and agree on the posted log line for line, the chart, drafts,
periods, ids, and every account's balance. 2,048 sequences of up to 60
commands; about 3s.
Honest about its first version: it agreed vacuously. Counting accepted
commands (MODEL_STATS=1) showed zero posts and zero reversals: random
lines never balance. A balanced-pair command fixed it (now ~150 posts,
~100 reversals, ~200 closes per 512 sequences). Shown to have teeth:
letting the model reverse an entry twice fails in 0.03s.

Three spec decisions from Stephen (2026-10-13), raised by the spec-blind
test writers, each test-first:
- A payment dated before its invoice or bill is refused
(PaymentBeforeDocument); a real prepayment is a deposit. Test:
a_payment_never_predates_its_document. Replay is unaffected (it goes
through replay_invoice_payment / replay_bill_payment).
- Aging as of a date shows only documents issued by then, less only the
payments made by then. The ledger now records each document's payment
entries (live and on replay), and aging counts those dated by as_of.
Test: aging_as_of_a_date_sees_only_what_existed_then; the A/R and A/P
conservation properties' aging oracles updated to the confirmed rule
(they had assumed aging ignored dates).
- A schedule through a mid-month date prorates that month by days; the
code was right and its doc wrong. The spec-blind test that disagreed is
rewritten to the confirmed spec and no longer ignored.
Also found while wiring payments: a payment to an unknown cash account
created the payment's draft and then failed, leaving it behind; the cash
account is now checked before anything is created.
The unreviewed golden van_schedule.json is gone: every row was first
checked against an independent hand computation (all 61 matched), then
replaced by van_schedule_is_the_hand_computed_one, which asserts that
computation directly (548.39, 59 x 1,000.00, 451.61; total 60,000.00).
Tests: 452. No spec-disagreements left ignored.
