P3: assets' posted and scheduled depreciation, their bases, and the K-1 on the tax basis (defect 13, D-41)
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.

Parity catalog

Every semantic feature we intend to clone, with its status. Updated in the same commit as the feature. The floor never decreases: the count of done items is monotonic across commits.

Statuses: done = implemented + invariant-tested + golden-covered. partial = implemented but missing tests or goldens. todo = not started. No other statuses.

Floor: 10 done (2026-10-10; fixed-asset register added).

Workflow/UI parity (QuickBooks/Xero reference) gets its own catalog when the egui phase starts; semantics come first.

P0 guard rails (2026-10-16)

P0 (plan/served.md) changed no feature in the catalog above, so no status moved and the floor stands. It hardened what exists: an older version refuses books from a newer one as newer, not corrupt (rules.md B-27); the MCP server fails closed after an internal error, and no input reaches one (dates are four-digit years, amounts at most a line's, B-28); local files were read only from the import roots, never the books, the vault or its key (P2 slice 5 removed local paths: files now come in as uploads or inline bytes); no file with a full TIN is filed into the books (B-26); the agent is told the rules in force in a short connect text and a handbook, and no agent text points at the books' files, git or the repo.

Capability parity (AI-first phase)

Semantic parity (above) is about correctness: the engine computes the right numbers. Capability parity is about usefulness: can the new system do everything the GSheet+GDrive system does today? Tracked separately in docs/capability-parity.md, with its own cutover rule (parallel run + the owner's approval). The two catalogs converge: when both are green, the sheet retires.
