Posted entries stay immutable (R-3), but their evidence can now change the
same way the ledger does: by appending events, never by editing or
deleting. New R-13a.
- books.unlink_receipt {attachment_id, reason} journals receipt.unlinked
and leaves the receipt filed, unlinked. The receipt policy holds: an
entry that requires a receipt can't lose its last one (structured
receipt_required error), so a replacement is attach-new, then
unlink-old. Drafts and reversals are exempt, as at posting.
- books.withdraw_attachment {attachment_id, reason} journals
attachment.withdrawn for an unlinked receipt or a filed document: hidden
from list_receipts (unless include_withdrawn), never linkable again. The
blob stays in the store, hash-verified and readable.
- link_receipt now refuses an already-linked or withdrawn attachment.
Before, re-linking silently moved a receipt off a posted entry,
bypassing the policy; evidence now leaves an entry only through a
recorded unlink. dispose_asset checks its receipt ids before posting
instead of after.
- Schema v5 adds attachments.withdrawn_at/withdrawn_reason; existing
stores migrate on open and replay rebuilds the projection.
Tests: store test (errors, reopen, rebuild, verify, journal history) and
an MCP stdio test (policy refusal, replace flow, withdraw, listings,
under-threshold unlink). Dry-run and live use on the the first company books:
8 migrated .eml attachments swapped for their PDF renders, trial balance
unchanged.
