P3: the cash flow statement by ASC 230 (defect 1, D-35, D-42)
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
checks every example.

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.
